The Challenge of Making Comics

~Blog by Avery of Sacred Visions Studio~

Making a comic is a full-time commitment. Creating just over 50 pages took me almost an entire year. Obviously, the amount of detail you put into your art matters, along with other elements such as whether you include color, whether it’s digitally or traditionally drawn, and the length and number of pages in the book. Any of these factors—and more—can influence how complicated your work becomes and how much effort you need to invest in your project.

Meditations of Superman Track 05: Destroying Angel

Avery: I present to you the 5th track of Meditations of Superman, titled: Destroying Angel. If you do not know, this project is a cosmic fantasy ambient soundscape narrative told across a number of tracks. (A mouthful, I know.)

Meditations of Superman Track 04: Fallen

Avery: Finally, after almost a year without another release, I present to you the 4th track to my Meditations of Superman series. If you do not know, this project is a cosmic fantasy ambient soundscape narrative told across a number of tracks. I’m not a musician, just someone whom likes to work with whatever creative medium he can get his hands on!

In total their will likely be 14 or more tracks, so keep an eye out, you will see the remainder of this project release hopefully this year. With another track definitely releasing in the next two weeks.

Making Art No One Cares About (And Why You Should Make It Anyway)

Avery: I have been working very hard on a project of mine called Meditations of Superman. It’s a sci-fi narrative project that uses ambient music to create a soundscape that coincides with the narration as well as the illustration. It is a very unique project, one that has taken me quite a long time to create—almost 2 years or longer at this point. Of course, most of that time was spent procrastinating and not necessarily knowing what I was doing.

Revisions to my Novels

Kai: Hi everyone! Recently I took the time to reread my own novels, which led to a bit of clean up and revisioning. Although I’ve definitely improved my writing over time, I also like to honor the origins of the stories and keep them close to what they were when I began them many, many, years ago. Most of them were inspired by dreams I had, including the characters, and much of the plot lines.

As of now, a lot of these fantasies are yet to be finished off with sequels and continuation stories, one of which I hope to finish soon in the future.

But for now, I am happy with how these books have turned out, and I hope you enjoy the crazy journey the Jade’s Crossing Universe has to offer!

“That Monolith” – A Sci-fi Short Story

Avery: This is a short comic that I wrote & illustrated for what was and hopefully still will be a long form story.

“Stranger Worlds Than These” is the intended title of this sci-fi series, with this short tale as the introduction.

With it being Halloween month, I thought what better time to turn this short comic into a voice acted short film then now? Please enjoy!
