After very close to a year of tinkering with these things, off and on, I finally managed to put one together, to do a proper shooting video. Which I promised back in... like, April. :)
Except Ma Nature had other plans, and spent the entire d...

Going off that small brass part I made the other day, I tried to put together a better, longer video that showed more of the process. I still managed to skip several steps, but it gives you the gist of it.
I'm still very new at this sort of ...

Not my video, just a quick shot of one I recently built for a customer, who had it annoed and then assembled it.
Ain't she purty? :)

One fun bit from my Thanksgiving week (hope yours were fun, too!)
Over on one of the paintball boards, some regulars were lamenting the fact that a certain part called a cup seal, for an antique marker called a Mega-Z, was no longer availabl...

I have to apologize for the latest bout of radio silence, but I've been working like a dog- or bear- to try and get a whole basketful of things done before the end of the year. Which includes some well-overdue customer work.
The penultimate,...

This is the one I was looking for when I found the Jinx/Kasi pic. :)
This one's from back when I ran the T-shirt preorders. I used a temporary storefront app, and decorated it with TWB artwork- for one holiday run that started in October, I ...

This is a crop of some old wallpaper artwork from back in 2011, when Jinx and Kasi went trick-or-treating.
I always liked how it came out, but man did it take a while back in those pre-tablet days, when I had to do it all with a mouse. :) 2022-10-31 08:51:31 +0000 UTC View Post
Like the title strip says, Kathy from Carry On helped write the following story- really, she laid out the whole thing, and I've basically just been adding a little TEB flavor t...

Sorry I haven't had time to further the adventures of Swampy & Jinx, but I've been working on a super-special holiday storyline. It's not really a "holiday" storyline- sorry, no zombies- it's just a really cool storyline that will happen to ru...

I got invited along with a small get-together, mainly just for fun, kind of an "end of summer" thing. Good hot-dogs (actually brats and reindeer sausage) some even better chili, a whole pile of old bowling balls, and a bucket of ...

Very rough, but a good sample of the sketch-and-'ink' first stage of a comic.
It's been a busy past week or so in the shop, but feelin' a bit under the weather today so I'm takin' it easy.

Seems the strip didn't update on the new schedule, not sure why. It should re-set here shortly, but in case it doesn't, here's Thursday's strip.

A bit overdue, but finally complete. The fifth in the series, and I think the best yet.
And yes, I still owe a final video on the build. It was supposed to be "next week"... back in, like, May. :)

The plot thickens! (Or maybe not... but it sounded good. :)

2022-07-28 07:52:07 +0000 UTC View PostI rather stupidly mis-set the scheduler at the beginning of the week, and today's update tried to be last Friday's. I've band-aided it with today's strip, but the "back" button, for the time being, takes you to last Thursday.

Sorry about skipping this weeks Swampy & Jinx update, but it was a busy, and as usual, often frustrating week, and I barely had time to get the regular strip out.
As a bit of an apology, I thought I'd dig out a piece that some of you may...

It begins. Hoping for at least once a week, but as always, it will depend on time and opportunity.

2022-06-25 07:23:10 +0000 UTC View PostThe top three choices were, Swampy & Jinx Blow Something Up with 32%, Cheesecake at 28%, and a short side-story at 20%.
None of the rest even broke 10%.
Now, don't worry, as we'll get to all of them at some point, but for the momen...
