New New Readers Page

For anybody that hasn’t noticed, I updated the New Readers page last week with the most up-to-date cast (and a group picture of everyone). I’ve also added a character in there that has yet to appear- Bernard. He is Ed’s doubt physically represented and you can find him this January. Yes, that storyline may be a little weird. Slightly.

Also, I’ve had some questions on how I did the picture of myself on this page. It really wasn’t that hard (it took a while- but not hard).

I started with a picture I took of myself at my desk:

Then I sketched on top of it and took away my original picture while cutting me out and inserting myself in the exact same spot:

Then the last step was just adding color and sprucing up the background slightly:

And no- I did not attend St. John’s University, but my name is John and I am a saint…and the sweatshirt was just $6, so how could I pass that up?!

And yes- that is my Madison Scouts jacket on my chair from when I marched and I do still wear it. And no- I have never washed it…although I think it is time.
