News, Contests and Contest News! AND News for Contests!
November 6th, 2009 |Things have been a little annoying here on the home front, as Josh and I wait around for a power cord for his laptop to come in so we can push forward with the plethora of new strips (I swear, we must’ve been cursed by malevolent technological Elder Gods), but it doesn’t mean that we don’t have a bunch of new and cool things going on! Let’s list them, shall we? Yes, let’s shall.
1) Site Re-Design! So out of no where, the awesome designer, programmer and illustrator Mr. Tyler Martin (of ComicPress fame and fortune) has been nice enough to offer to help us redesign the overall look and organization of our site! Things should roll out by the end of the year, so keep your eyes peeled for an awesome and very slick revamp!
2) TGT Webcomics Podcast Interview! Mr. Kurt (VertigoX) Sasso and Phil (Frumph) have both been so cool to us over the years, both by helping to spread the word about our comic and by helping us bring the site back from the dead after our unfortunate hacker/takedown situation. Now they’ve invited Josh and I onto the TGT Webcomics Podcast November 27th (the day after Thanksgiving) at 9pm EST!! Should be a fun and wild situation for all, but especially us… remember our last podcast interview with Jamias at Webcomic Review and Interview?
3) Horror Fan Art Contest! A big reminder, Friday the 13th is the last day to submit your horrific revisions of Tuna Carpaccio P.I. characters for a pair of awesome Tuna & De Jesus T-Shirts! Of course, we’ll let everyone see them after we’ve submitted them… But imagine how much scarier Snake Eyes could look? Or Iron Chef? Or Dead Beat? I say, go nuts. We certainly would. And mail them to Tony@TunaCarpaccioPI.com by the 13th, in case I haven’t written that enough times.
4) Christmas Contest… TBA! Josh and I have a really awesome new contest in the works that we can’t wait to announce! In fact, we decided recently that we’re going to start doing a ton of new contests, only because they’re totally fun for us. That means new and more interesting prizes, and new cool merchandise at the store to come! T-Shirts are only the beginning, and Christmas is just about the corner!
5) I’m Starting to Panel Our Book! But it’s clearly taking forever, since Tuna Carpaccio P.I. wasn’t originally intended for publication. That being said, expect that Josh and I approach publishing our first 2 years of Tuna Carpaccio P.I. the way we write, draw and panel it. And by that, I mean haphazardly and with no foresight. At all. It’s a bit early in terms of heads up, but who cares? The more notice the merrier, right?
Right.
Thanks for the patience everyone, and remember to join in the contest mayhem!
