parts...
I have jumbles of odd parts like this, doodles that often never get used, though most do...I’ve been doing more recently..keeping them loaded into heavy, layered photoshop work files..work01, work02, work03 and on.
My photoshop work file is like a drafting floor roughly 10 x 10 feet, and I work small and in the center of it, hodging and podging often 30, 60 layers of oddments that get scattered or else turned invisible while I work on layers above or below them. It’s the nimble work of a spider and it must look a bit strange to someone walking in on me with only the light from my monitor…heh
I received a letter today from the editorial administration at DC Comics…they’re launching a new database system and certain changes will go on to effect those ‘other people’ who do what I do, but do it for a living…heh…the cute thing though, was that they sent along this curious and thorough phone list of hundreds of people; Senior Vice Presidents/executive Editors, Art Directors, all manner of Editors…the Associate Editors, the Assistant Editors, the Senior Story Editors, the Group Editors, Editoral Director Editors, Editorial Accountants, …assistants, receptionists, and it goes on like that for DC, Vertigo, Wildstorm…it’s a whose who of people currently not without toilet paper or coffee and I dig that…heh
I need to get my ass to Chicago this August for the comic convention..it’s a hop-skip away.
Funny, the last time I was there I slept in the hotel lobby for two nights…thje guy with the sweeper finally corralled me into a seat by the pool…no carpet there see…heh…some guest of the hotel came down to the lobby in the wee hours and played Beatles tunes on that big tiger shark of a piano. He played well, but that piano could’ve thrown him if it wanted to.
