Announcements About Muzzle, A New Concept, Goria, and School Updates

I know I've been away for a week, at least, but I've been a little busy. School's going pretty well. My color theory teacher reminds me of a female Walter Bishop. One of the old Kaplan Photo teachers is my Photo 1 teacher, and I think my Psychology teacher thinks I'm too smart for my own good. I'm slowly getting integrated into the school, and I seem to have made fast acquaintances with the "nerds," (I mean that in a good way, I'm a nerd, too) an Arab med student, and a Japanese art student.

I'm changing a bit of "Muzzle." There has been some interest from some unexpected places about the "Wounded/Nobody Took Your Pride Away" two part story line that will affect the characters of the strip in some way. Due to that, I'll probably skip "Who Needs Sleep?" and possibly come back to that at a later time (mainly due to the fact that my new neighbors next door are nearly as bad as the old ones). We're currently working on the script for the two part (both me, and the subject of the story), and I'll say this, right now: It's not going to be an easy read, especially if you've read my old Deviant Art Muzzle strips. It will be a lot more serious (this story), but, it does have humor. It's just that the humor isn't meant to be "funny," more character development than funny (for example, showing that Patty is trying to expunge the situation from her mind by making references to TV shows). After that storyline, Muzzle will go back to its drama/comedy roots.

I'm working on Muzzle Wallpapers, as well as concepts. Below are the ones I'm currently working on:

On the Goria front, I'm tossing a few ideas around. I am still going to introduce Mimic, but that won't be until later on in the series. She is, in fact, an extremely good foil for Goria, and there is going to be a story based on just that. Where it gets tricky is, once again, Jillian Dyer. SPOILER ALERT! She eventually gets possessed by Succubus, and is the third, and most dangerous, incarnation of the demon. Herein lies the trick: how is Succubus going to be driven out of her? But, I'm sure I'll think of something.

I also started tossing around a new idea. Entitled, Subject 30, the story is about a man in a mental institution who is being experimented on. One day, his "handlers" are attacked by creatures while he's being transported to a lab, and he starts to escape, only to find that the experiments that are being done to him and the other patients aren't meant for humans. He also finds out that he himself is a psychologist.

That's all for now. I'm going to talk about some pretty good game design choices here a little while though. Stay tuned!
