Hello all!

Got the latest page as you can see, though we had some issues getting the lettering just right…for which I’ll apologize to Satanasov for… Hope you like the page as it is though, so post comments and let us know what you think!

Also, as I mentioned in my last post, I have pictures of Pennsic War, where I was at earlier in August. Unfortunately none of the video I took came out well, so all I can give you are pictures for now. Here they are, so enjoy:

Me with some long time friends in a procession (I am the guys in the black and grey to the left):

Me in the Bridge Battle (I am in the center of the image, again in black and grey with Yellow shoulder sleeves):

The Castle Battle which was a real tiring event. These two are pictures of the enemy force which is about to storm the walls (I am on the other side with another small army):

And finally, some pictures of the gate we made for our encampment, which was 3 weeks of long days of work on it:

Well, that’s it for now…hope you all enjoy and see you soon!

Blessed Be!

PS: Video has surfaced of Leo (and I – though hidden to the right side of Leo) at Anime Next doing a spontaneous Bohemian Rhapsody singalong in the Artist Alley. Here is the link for those who want to see:

Thanks to Nightengale for showing us where to find it!

Hail and well met!

I’ll apologize for the late update, as the past two weeks I have been prepping for and attending Pennsic War, for which I was largely without an internet connection. I should have announced this earlier, but in the rush of preparation, I forgot.

I will post pics and video of the war when I get a chance, however in the middle of unpacking stuff, so doing a quick update while I can.

Hope you enjoy the current page as it is the beginning of the introduction of Brawyn (our main heroine) and I think it will be very interesting indeed.

Blessed Be!

P.S.: Still waiting to hear if anyone has video from our Artist Alley singalong at AnimeNext ( www.animenext.org ). If you have a lead on that or video, please e-mail me at: eirik@chisuji.com so I see about getting a copy of it.

Afternoon!

Sitting here at work on a drill weekend..and got the new page in e-mail on my new HTC EVO 4G Phone..so decided to forward it to my work computer and post from here. Incidentally I am really really enjoying all the features on this new phone…and am geeking out on it as it is the first ‘smart phone’ I have owned.

Now, looks like we have our introduction of Rod, one of the ‘main characters’ of the story and two of his friends (gotcha guys!) based on some people I actually know…

Really looking forward to how the next page turns out myself…as always!

Till next time!

Afternoon!

I hope all our United States readers enjoyed their 4th of July! I know I sure did…had a nice 1st Edition AD&D session over at a friend’s house…one where my pacifist monk was inadvertently forced to kill..thus he is beginning a slow slide into insanity. Fun times. :p

Still waiting to hear if anyone has video from our Artist Alley singalong at AnimeNext ( www.animenext.org ), the weekend before last. If you have a lead on that or video, please e-mail me at: eirik@chisuji.com so I see about getting a copy of it.

As you can see from this latest page we are about to start the present day storyline of Chisuji, where the main characters of our tale finally make their appearance. It’s been a long wait and I am very excited about it. I hope you all are just as enthusiastic as I am about the upcoming pages and do think you’ll enjoy them.

Blessed Be!

Morning!

It’s Monday and we have yet another awesome page for you to enjoy…and as you can see from the text, we are getting ready to segue into present day, the setting for our main characters. Satanasov did a bang up job on this page, I am sure you will all agree.

As you all know, we were guests at AnimeNext ( www.animenext.org ) last weekend. It was the most fun convention I have been at in years! Myself, Leo, and Crybringer were in attendance there…highlights were the Artist Alley sing-alongs (particularly the Bohemian Rhapsody one) and the Character Creation panel we did which was packed, standing room only. I’d like to put a request out there for whomever videotaped the singing to send me a copy or a link I can post on this site. That would be fun to share with you all I think.

Till next time!

Heya!

Updating from AnimeNext ( www.animenext.org ) and watching Leo get down to some old tunes like “Staying Alive” and “She’s a Bad Mamma Jamma”. People walking past our table are joining in…its very amusing! If you are at the con, come by our table and see…and check out our panels today and tomorrow!

Got the latest page from Satanasov last night and finally got the computer up to post it while here. As I commented to a poster on the last page, the Change is not quite as benign as people suddenly becoming ‘anime’.

We should have another page up soon…so stay tuned!

Peace!

Afternoon!

Sitting here at Anime Mid Atlantic ( www.animemidatlantic.com ) and got an email from Satanasov with the latest page! As you can see, the events involving Col Givens and MSgt Quinn has had potentially wide reaching effects, which will be seen in the rest of the story. As you may have guessed, we’ll be moving away from them and to the main characters of the story.

In the meantime I am enjoying sitting at my table and talking to folks, so if you happen to be at the convention, pop on by! One of the people that stopped by has done some fan art of Brawyn which you can see at his deviant art page here: www.jamestheterrible.deviantart.com. Look for Brawyn in his gallery, he has two pics up thus far.

Next weekend, Chisuji will Guest at AnimeNext ( www.animenext.org ) …my first time at this convention, so it should be a blast!

Take care!

Good Morning!

Got another page done and this one marks the point where in a few more scenes we’ll be introducing the main characters of the story. I know that has been a long time coming…and I am very sorry for that, but all in all I hope it is finally worth it.

This upcoming weekend, Chisuji will Guest at Anime Mid Atlantic ( www.animemidatlantic.com ). Look for our table and panels at the convention, we should have some fun. The weekend right after that is AnimeNext ( www.animenext.org ) so I am looking forward to an exhausting next few weeks.

Blessed Be!

Heya all!

The newest page of Chisuji is up…and I am quite pleased with how this turned out, after Satanasov spent an all nighter putting it together. Things are proceeding in arranging more time for us to get updates occurring frequently so lets see what the future holds…

Still in the news is the fact that Chisuji has been invited to Guest at AnimeNext ( www.animenext.org ) and it looks like it will a doozy! Also gearing up for Anime Mid Atlantic ( www.animemidatlantic.com ) which will put us on a back to back convention cycle, one weekend after another. With any luck it will be fun and not too tiring!

Peace Out!

As I have mentioned in the past, we will be doing a humorous side strip detailing the lives of the cast and characters interacting with the creators of the comic in ‘real life’ outside the story. This is still in concept phase, as we are working with getting Leo Saunders to do most of that strip along with additional art and entries by other artists who have worked on the team. That said, Satanasov recently did a poster that we will be selling at the upcoming conventions this summer that shows a possible scene that would have gone on between the three main characters. You can see it here: www.chisuji.com/images/chisujiposter5small.jpg

Enjoy and see you all soon!
