Kickstarter for Rednecks in Space Webcomic

I've been something of a lurker here on the forums for years-- I would comment on occasion, but not often. But I've enjoyed reading the posts, and this is one forum I've been proud to be a member of. I have recently started a Kickstarter to fund the production of my up-and coming webcomic, 'Rednecks...

Wow, thanks for the info!

Now I'm starting to look for flexible nib pens, myself.

I should definitely start seeing better results in my inking, now.

Thanks again!!

Inking Questions for Stan

I've got a few questions for Mr. Sakai. I know you've mentioned using a Koh-I-Noor Art Pen. Would that be their Rapidographs? Or is it more like a crow quill? If it is, then what are your thoughts on using Rapidographs as an inking tool? I know Jeff Smith hates them and uses a brush, and Dave Sim sw...

The ending of Gen's Story really got to me...

Seeing Gen cry over his father's death (the second time he's ever cried, by his recollection) was deeply moving.

Man... Stan really captures emotion well in his art... Such a master....

Well, the Playmates TMNT Usagi action figures had height measurements, but that wouldn't necessarily be canon information. According to the old toy, he's 5'6" with his ears fully extended, and the new toy says he's 5'9" with his ears fully extended. (Sorry, I don't know right off what that...

Archie's Sonic the Hedgehog is relatively all-ages, but it seems to appeal largely to kids and not so much to older readers. However, Tracy yardley is an excellent artist. Also, Amazon does have some English editions of Tintin (awesome comic!) but it can be just a wee bit pricey... :( And although b...

I'd love a statue-- they are some of the coolest collectibles I've ever seen-- but I'm on an extremely limited budget. If they were affordable enough, I'd definitely go for them.

Ah, I love Fiddler on the Roof. I didn't think I'd enjoy it, but I saw a high-school production and fell in love with the story and songs. I've seen the movie numerous times, but I honestly think I prefer the stage performance. For anyone who enjoyed the play/movie, I'd recommend the book. You shoul...

"or someone entirely new and different could be on the hunt?" A new bounty hunter? Hmm... Am I mistaken, or has Stray Dog been after Usagi before? (I'm not as well-read as I'd like to be :b) I'd have a hard time imagining Gen going after Usagi, myself, but then again, from the five books (...
