"ON MY WAY" and other artworks
Written on 2/2/2023
These days I found finally time to work on my personal novel and other artworks. My novel started in November 2021 reached 18 episodes now and decided to attach the last one I finished in early 2023 as the 19th one and last for Season 1.
The 19th episode was supposed to be done in the Christmas season, but as usual I've been busy with chores, ultimately I started and finished it now.
The episode itself depict characters wearing Christmas hats and features a snowy winter. Main character drove also his car "Tracia 1300"(Fig.2) in the snowy time, an impossible thing for such a car in the actual world.

This episode brought also a real life reader, the first one I randomly met by train. She spotted me drawing my assets and later I introduced her to already released "ON MY WAY" episodes on Instagram account. She might have read the whole comic during that long travel, I don't know more. She left at some point and that it was. I'm glad that my ideas of posting the episodes using "highlight" feature on IG helps a lot.
From now on I storyboard for Season 2...
At the moment "ON MY WAY" will feature the same style 4 pages long episodes and various developments that my main character Alex and his cop friends Keith and Gloria live. The episodes are mostly centered in a town called Bombilla. The town is affected by economical deficiencies and it's bothered from time to time by some creatures called "giants". Yes, they'll return in the season 2 with some little redesign and new powers. In any case you wonder why they weren't featured in the last episode, umm, you can simply imagine yourself.
The novel is purely fictitious. Even main character - it physically resemble the author (me) but the personality it's totally different. It derived from some personal comics done in my teenage years, my current perspective of life and my favorite genre of comics.

Cars still play a major role in "ON MY WAY", Dacia 1300 being mostly featured in these comics and looking at Fig.3, it might be a da capo ("back to the roots"). It's unclear whether I was interested in Dacia 1300 at that time...I was a damn kid in 2013 and I hadn't enough resources to learn drawing cars then. They weren't that important in my comics also, (probably) now it's still fueled by the fact I love Dacia.In school I only learned basics and switched to architecture in high school. After some long practice I'm where I am now ten years later in comparison of a sample done in breaks at school.
Missed a lot working on watercolors. I've been busy with large projects that involved grayscale
artworks, but now I finally found time to rest a bit after a stressful exam session in these crucial times.

That's it for this blog. Going to work on further projects, but at the moment focusing solely on "ON MY WAY". Cheers! 🙂✏️💡
