– Is this a secret Sunday update? Yup! I lost track of what day it was and put the Monday Medusa up a day early!
– The Modest Medusa Season 2 Kickstarter is coming along great! We’re at almost 90% funded, which means getting close but we still need help. I’d love to get to 100% today or tomorrow so we can start working toward the stretch goals and fill the book up with bonus content! Lets make it happen!
Okay, so here’s some new stuff for the Kickstarter. First, we have the art for the DS skin. These are special decals designed to give your Nintendo DS a new look! One goes on the front and one on the back. These will work for the DS lite, DSi and the 3DS or even a PSP! Both of these illustrations were created just for this project. This DS Skin is available to everyone who contributed $60 or more!
Next we have the last of the three mini prints from the $35 reward level. This illustration was originally done for the 2012 Women of Wonder charity auction. Since so many of you have asked for it I thought it would be cool to offer it as part of the print set!
As I mentioned on Weds, we’re having an art contest! Draw any character from Modest Medusa, post it somewhere along with a link to this site (you can mention the Kickstarter too, if you want) and send me a link to it! I’ll choose the three I like the best to appear as pin ups in the Season 2 book (complete with the artists name and contact info)! My favorite of the three will win a signed copy of the book! The deadline for the contest is the 18th of this month. I’ll announce the winner and post links to all the entries on the 22nd!
not sure if first
or noones been approved to comment yet
Congrats! You’re totally first. Give us a speech!
nice art contest i might join if i can find the right pose on this certain character.
ps: lol how does the snake writhe XD
pps: lovely DS skin 😮
hmmm, nope, having a reshiram is not a good measure of intelligence seeing as it is almost required to catch it and its not really hard to have lots of pokemon if you throw ultra balls at everything
guess the only reason she is a little smarter is she actually went out and did things! now if only people could get their kids to do the same…
Totally upped my pledge to get that print.
I saw! Thanks!
What Medusa doesn’t know is the Nintendo D.S., Chocodiles, Jake, Marah, and Charles were all factors contributing to Medusas uniqueness
The D.S. contributed to patience and hand eye coordination.
Chocodiles contributed to intelligence {Sugar is good for medusa brain but terrible for the attention span}
Marah for The attitude and Courage
Jake for the Courage and willpower.
And Charles contributed to her general knowledge 30 points just by his fish scientist speech.
Im so gonna enter 😀 First I have to figure out what to draw lol
Also, the DS Skin looks awesome!
SNNAAAAKKEEEYYYY!!! You ALWAYS take notes.
Did her hair eat the pencil? How will she take notes now?
Well, given the penchant for the snake on her right (let’s call him “Randy” just for kicks, and to bring up an obscure comment from a much earlier strip ;P) to steal food… and… other things… Randy! Find something to write with!
Does she even have anything to write on?
how did you get your art to look like all good and not hand drawn with a pen?
Lots of practice? I guess that’s it. Thanks, by the way.
did you use a computer it doesnt look hand drawn
I use photoshop to color the art and do the lettering. Everything else is hand drawn.
its too good
Thanks!
Maybe the hair snake that’s out of the picture is writing it down.
Dylans comments look creepy “It’s too good” next comes “You must be lying” and then the skin suits {Just kidding Dylan}. Either that or he’s trying to be an artist himself and is subtley fishing for advice.
a few things
1. Jake you know you were dragged to Yeld Because you disobeyed your own sign and Peed on yet another Medusa right?
2. I take back whoever i said for Momdusas voice and replace her with Ellen Mclain.
3. If Charles meets up with Chainsaw Unicorn ole C.U. is in for a world of hurt.
I’m depressed because people tell me I draw really well, but when I did some sharpie tatoos on some people I realize I can only draw flowers really well and copy picture by staring at them a long time. And that takes forever because I have OCD when I am drawing.
WAHHHH!!! 🙁
You draw Medusa and her snakes awsome and I suck.!!!! 🙁
But the latest drawing strip is cool! *sniffle* 🙂
Thanks.
I guess I should just let you judge whether my drawings suck or not….
How do I send them to you again?
jake@celstyle.com, or post a link here.
How do I post a link becuase I can’t use Microsoft Outlook?!?!?!?
Wait do I email it to you?????
You can email me the image if you want. You can also post it on deviant art, Facebook, tumblr or wherever and then send that link to me or post it here.
Okay so ….
I finish drawing and then paste the web url on one of my coments right?!
That’ll work.
Thank You Jake!!! 🙂
I’ll be finished with the drawing soon!!!
Maybe when the snakes eat things they convert it to brain cells, and her sisters are never given anything for their snakes to eat so they stay dumb.
Honestly I just started this series yesterday and I’m loving it! Great job, your art is really cute
