That Time Of Year Again.

Cometh the Summer, cometh my annual shout-out request for feedback and fan-art.

What with the art show now over and Babayka-Lives hibernating (webcomics are strange creatures that seem to sleep during the hot weather and thrive during the cold), if you’ve ever harboured a secret desire to get involve and either leave feedback or do some Babayka-Lives related fan-art, now would be the perfect time, folks.

I’ve always like the idea of filling the Babayka shaped gap during these sunny months with reader’s fan-art. As an artist, it’s a huge buzz to see other people depict your characters and show them some love. Plus my Deviantart Babayka-Lives fan-art folder needs fattening up. I seem to be curse that nobody who does me a pin-up has an account.

I’m honestly open to any and all art. From computer renderings to paintings on cave walls, all is welcome, I love all art and enjoy seeing different takes. I also again plan to print some fan-art in the back of Babayka Land: Part Two, much as I did with Part One. So some people could very well see their artwork in print.

Also any thoughts and feedback on work from this past year are also very welcome, if folks have any?

Topics for feedback could include, but are in no way limited to:

* Did you enjoy SLASH-UPS and would you like to see a second edition?

* Horror themes you like to see tackled if there is a SLASH-UPS 2?

* Did you visit either the SLASH-UPS or Violent Femmes exhibitions, and if so, did you enjoy them?

* Points of view on events that have happened so far this year in Babayka-Lives?

* Favourite characters or moments from Babayka Land so far?

* I heard someone complaining at the show that they couldn’t read Babayka-Lives because it’s too scary. Has anyone else had to jump ship and stop reading Babayka-Lives because it got too bloodcurdling? And if so, what scene frightened you off?

As always, and even when it’s not Summer, you can submit feedback and fan-art to the usual address.
