Page 9... Just keep swimming...

Another short comic. I'll be drawing through the weekend, so maybe there'll be some more pics up.

Page 8... You say screw those lemons.

Short page tonight. I'm going to try something new for the next one, so let's keep our fingers crossed, shall we? Thanks for your patience and well wishes. My grandma was 93 as of last June, and I'll miss her calling me Britney (not my name XD).

When life hands you lemons...

Expect something here by the end of the day. My grandma died of cancer, so a bit rushed as I answer my dad's calls and help with funeral preparations. But I'll have something up. Sorry.

This morning, around 4:30, i was treated to a reminder of what a low blood sugar incident feels like. It doesn't feel very great! That's okay though. New character coming up!

And with that, I'm off to pass out for a nap.

In which I try not to kill myself after exercise.

Okay. page set to go up later today. I did a lot of walking yesterday, and I’m rather sore, so the sandman was of course insistent yesterday, so I’m having to play catch up. Sorry. In other news, I found out that I really like the Kpop group Generation Girls. So that’s something, though I’m not surprised.

Now let's see if I can't get a decent character page up while I'm thinking about it. Fingers crossed now. Look for an update on Tuesday.

Henaji Art Transition

Going to be trying out Manga Studio EX to ink and place the comic, as my trials for both photoshop/illustrator and Comic Life are expiring. I’ve heard great things about how sensitive it is, and I look forward to having more options. Just a heads up, so if any part of the comic looks different, you know what it is.

Major drama in my life right now, but stuff happens. Expect another page at the end of today.

Ah ha!

I just found some scripts from back in the day when I was drafting everything out by hand. This is very good, because I was looking for those! So today will be a scripting day, and Saturday (most likely) there will be 2 comics posted because you guys had to wait so long. So gomenasai! But please stay tuned! In the meantime, feel free to follow this blog or henaji.tumblr.com. There are also pics you can peruse at tiamatshapeshifter.deviantart.com.

Page 2! For all those who’ve asked me about the characters so far, just keep reading!

Delay -_-

I’m having a Disneyworld type opening right now. Experiencing multiple power outages, so the strip will be up when we get that resolved. I still expect it to go up today, but it’s hard when the computer keeps shutting off because it’s a desktop. Wish me luck.

Remodeling

I've got some decisions to make about Henaji. This is going to result in a small delay with the second page, but in return, I'm going to fix up the first page as well. I basically have two character designs to choose from, and while I sort of know how I want said character to look the initial design is pretty darn cute! So I'm going to solve the quandary and get back to it. Expect the second page to go up later on Tuesday.

Hi, Reddit

Just in case you guys need another way to contact me, I'm Chihuatlan on Reddit. I'm quite sure you guys will let me know if I screw up too badly on this.. Um... I'm referencing Reddit now?


Thank you!

And so it begins... Still working out some kinks as well as trying to decide how to go about hosting this on a place that lets me have a character page, etc. Meanwhile, I'll keep updating. I suppose Henaji is indeed born on the first day of 2013. Awesome. The sister site to this is henaji.tumblr.com . There's a deviantart page with Henaji content at tiamatshapeshifter.deviantart.com as well. I hope you enjoy the comic.

Jump on It.

Allright, time to get down to business with this idea of mine that's been percolating for around four years. Here's some backstory on me. I have a Bachelor's of Science in Animal Science, and I've been out of college for four years now. I'm going back for a second degree in Veterinary Medical Technology. Arting so I don't stagnate, and writing for just about the same reason. Henaji goes up in January 2013. Does this mean it will go up on New Years? No. First week in January's going to be my last bit of vacation before school starts, so expect something around the 7th or so. Schedule will be Tuesday and Thursday because I'd like to challenge myself at adhering to a schedule. So in all, this endeavor will be about challenges. Henaji's too young for resolutions, so don't even try that. Happy New Years, people.
