For the record, this isn’t the first time the Lactucans have appeared in Girls in Space. A Lactucan discovers the body of the Galaxas Casino Manager in Push the Button.
Yesterday was Father’s Day (at least it was here, in Scotland). I was thrilled when the boy gave me a box marked “Daddy’s Star Wars Kit” including: Wookie Cookies, Yoda Soda, Jar Jar of Gungan Gumballs, Vaderade, Bobba Gum and loads more customised snacks! Han’s Rolos were a nice touch!
At the beginning of this evening I did not expect that by the end of the evening I would be running a different comic plugin and that the site would be somewhat transformed!
I try to keep up to date with the latest version of WordPress etc. However I noticed that I hadn’t updated Comicpress (the comic plug-in/theme which turns the blog into a comic site). So I hit update and – blam! – the site had a meltdown!
There was no option to revert to the previous version and although I regularly back-up the database, I hadn’t backed up the WordPress code.
So, after an initial panic, I looked at the back end and realised that it looked normal. So, I thought to myself: maybe I could install a different comic pug-in and migrate the data.
Comic Easel had a tool for migrating data from a Comicpress site, so I downloaded the plug-in, ran it and to my great relief, it (mostly) fixed the site. All that was left was to customise it.
It’s still a work in progress but at least it’s working!
Last week I received an amazing piece of art from Jerry Benedict of the comic Bunny Wiggins. Not only has Jerry done a masterful job of drawing Red, he’s also included the bus, a super cool font and Scotland in the background. I am completely blown away. Thank you so much Jerry.
Jerry’s work can be found at bunnywiggins.com – you won’t be disappointed.
For no particular reason I drew a piece of fan art for Jerry Benedict, the mastermind behind the webcomic: Bunny Wiggins.
If you like your webcomics shaken, stirred and then reshaped into rabbit form you may just get a kick out of this comic. Think James Bond minus Bond himself plus a bad boy bunny. There’s girls. There’s villains. …and then there’s villain girls!
For your eyes only, this is the Countess, one of his most intriguing characters.
Hop on over to his site to see the full image and to enjoy Bunny Wiggins.
After three and a bit years of drawing this comic I wanted to take stock of what was working and what wasn’t. I’d love to know what you, as a reader, think about Girls in Space.
