BNS Returns September 9th 2009!

we hope to see you all here on september 9th and have appreciated your patience and love in our time away.

see you all soon :)

cheers,

podcasting @ digital kontent

 

Digital Kontent

the boys at digital kontent (myles, john & ibrahim) had me over the other day to talk shop about the ups and downs of conventions and anything that came up. i probably yammered on a bit to freely tarnishing my good image, but i tend to do that for the most part on a daily basis. 

DIGITAL KONTENT / DEFYING CONVENTIONS : LISTEN

i think i’m gonna kill ‘em for showcasing my fumbling of the digital kontent introduction in the opening of the episode! 

watch your respective backs gents ;)

that’s amoré

that's amoré!

a few words as to where things stand.

right now a lot is going on in the background on butternut. we have an option in the works with a local production company that we’re putting our love into, in hopes of getting bns on the air!

on the flipside a lot of folks think i dedicate more love to kuku than i do bns. i love them both, they’re my redheaded step children :) but it is easier for me to focus on kuku as it is solely my own project whereas butternut is a collaboration. so for things to get rolling on the squash both rob and i have to find the time to get together and knock heads on the squash. easier said than done. rob is my best bud, but i’m lucky if i see the bloke one day a week… and sometimes that day comes and we’re both burned out.

but rest assured we are working towards a relaunch. when the day gets closer and more definitive we will let you know!

that said we will also be doing some conventions to bring the squash back into the public eye… so stay tuned for future con dates or just check out my art blog; cranial percolations.

cheers,

ramon.

…an update of what’s going on.

i can’t believe its been almost three months since my last big post!

time flies, ridiculously so.

let it be known though that i have not been resting on my laurels. i would say i have been busy but that is an understatement. i could rhyme off what i’ve been working on and it would tally in at about 8-10 projects simultaneously. rather i’ll mention the ones that have been the most fun: currently i am illustrating a 8 page star wars tale for dark horse comics for their free comic book day offering, i am also wrapping up my tenure on inking marvel’s nyx with the series’ last issue and last but not least i am in the middle of the six issue resistance miniseries for wildstorm comics based on the ps3 video game! the remainder of my schedule was filled with a bit more dry corporate fare, though some were quite fun. of which i will post to my art blog, cranial percolations when i can.

everything came to a head last week with multiple contracts culminating and the nycc arriving. the con is now over (there was no table or swag so nothing was missed – i was there for networking alone) and i am back on home turf and taking today off. over the next week or so i shall assess my schedule, tigure things out, talk to rob and get down to business.

so once i get the ball rolling behind the scenes i wll figure out a relaunch date for the squash, cause we got some tales to tell and can’t wait to get back into it! right now i’m hoping on a return of mid to late march, but won’t say anything official just yet.

as well, later this spring at tcaf (toronto comic arts festival) i hope to unveil some swag, prints and possibly some other fun stuff.

more words to come…

thank you all for your support and patience!
