Long time no update. Preparing for NY Comic Con has really worn me out. I'll be on an insane schedule from now through Sunday. Can I post another comic while putting in convention hours? We'll find out :PIn this installment: a new fashionable hairdo for Seianti, an old-fashioned outfit for Iusta.

Date: 2009-02-05 07:24 pm (UTC)But right now, my big project is de-stressing before starting in on any new cool projects. I know, odd time to do it, during a massive convention when I'll be on my feet and sleepless for three days and smiling and doing the marketing-and-sales dance and trying to be eight different people at once. But if I don't take it easy, something bad is going to happen. Well, badder than the normal. Anyway, I need to slow down, no matter what's on my professional plate.
And I need to draw more Romans. Always, I need to draw more Romans. They are very relaxing.

Date: 2009-02-05 09:12 pm (UTC)I'll see you tomorrow, I guess ! If you need any help, call me ! (I'm basically available all the time)

Date: 2009-02-05 09:20 pm (UTC)If you'd like to stay in the booth for a while and talk with visitors about the series, I would be very happy to have you there. We will have muffins and brownies and will make you very comfortable. And I hope you'll be able to stay for the 7:15pm panel about European Comics :)
Hurrah!

Date: 2009-02-05 01:05 pm (UTC)Poor Mus, don't know if he realizes what she's offering.
I love the dress too. Somehow I can't see Justa keeping to it though.
I'll hope for more comics, but know you are very very bizzy.
Much love.

Date: 2009-02-05 07:19 pm (UTC)I need to relax and spend time enjoying something fun (Romans! Murderous volcanoes!). I've let the excessive demands of my job make me sloppy at work and neglect the Romans-and-murderous-volcanoes. Today I've realised it isn't worth it. I'm unhappy, the company is mad, nobody wins.
So, more Romans tonight, after work.

Date: 2009-02-06 05:27 pm (UTC)... btw, I absolutely LOVE their clothes and the way they drape. I'm even astonished by Iusta's simple garments. You draw too well T__T *jealous* lol
And I wish I could be at the con ;___; *snif sniff* At least seeing this update cheers my study-time (or what should be my study-time =P )
Good luck at the con!!

Date: 2009-02-05 10:15 pm (UTC)aww poor mus. I don't know how the guy isn't going insane with Iusta and that fox Seianti around...It's enough to drive a man crazy :D

Date: 2009-02-06 05:49 pm (UTC)I also like the way you draw Mus' face. He seems simultaneously ambivalent and uncertain about everything.
Story Whoring
Date: 2009-02-08 02:52 pm (UTC)I've been reading since day 1 of this strip, and I've just recently made my own foray into the world of Historical Fiction set in the Ancient Roman High Empire.
So , if you're interested, consider giving the first little bit a read and review, right here:

Obviously, it needs a lot of work, but I'd love to get feedback from some people who love Roman things as much as myself.
