Insanely Twisted Shadow Planet gets a blog!

Saturday, April 11th, 2009 by Michel Gagne

Hello folks, Michel Gagne here. I just wanted to let everyone know about my new blog about the on-going making of one of my big animated project.

Many months ago, a decision was reached by concensus by my partners at Fuelcell and I, that we would keep quiet about our videogame, Insanely Twisted Shadow Planet, until we get closer to our release date. Although, I was itching to release new footage and images, I held myself back and agreed to keep everything under wrap.

I’m happy to announce that we’ve decided to break our vow of silence and start sharing some of our work on-line to get people excited. As production progresses, I will share our triumphs and hardships, I will update with insights, videos and images at least a couple of times a month (hopefully more as time permits). I hope you’ll enjoy the ride. Read the blog at www.InsanelyTwistedShadowPlanet.com.

Guest Artist @ Partyka

Hey folks! Joey Weiser here again!

Kaiju Life - The Ultra Family

I am pleased and proud to announce that during the month of April, I will be the Partyka guest artist! For those that don’t know, Partyka is a collective of excellent artists including Shawn Cheng, Matt Wiegle, and John Mejias! I highly recommend you check out there stuff, and consider buying some of their top notch mini-comics (The Monkey & The Crab and The Four Husbands are particular favorites of mine) and other products!

Anyway, they do daily drawings on their front page, and each month they feature a different guest artists. Past guests includes great folks like Eleanor Davis, Chris Wright, and Dustin Harbin! The series of illustrations I did for the site is called “Kaiju Life” and the entire set can be viewed at my guest page. I had a lot of fun with these drawings, and tried to tackle some slightly (and sometimes not-so-slightly) different coloring techniques with each one. Every four days you can check back to see one of mine featured. However, if I were you I’d check back on a regular basis to see what Shawn, Matt, and John are up to as well! Enjoy!

Kaiju Life - Mothra

And, hey, while I’m here, I’d like to mention that the FLUKE mini-comics show (for which I did the poster for this year) will be this weekend, April 4th, in Athens, Georgia. There I will be debuting my new mini-comic, The Late-Night Gang! If you are unable to attend the show, it is also available for purchase online.
