type='text'>Ocupado | Busy</title><content type='html'>Tempos ocupados, blog morto...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As últimas semanas têm sido de algum trabalho e de projectos lentamente a avançar. &lt;br /&gt;Defier# 2 está a ganhar vida ao fim de vários meses a ter que trabalhar para pagar contas, um projecto adiado com o meu colega &lt;a href="http://almirantefujimori.blogspot.com/"&gt;Jorge Coelho&lt;/a&gt; está finalmente a servir de aquecimento matinal para os músculos criativos, estou a escrever uma proposta com o meu colega &lt;a href="http://www.chezpotes.blogspot.com/"&gt;Pedro Potier&lt;/a&gt; para uma publicação mensal nacional, e outra ideia minha saiu da gaveta para se juntar a esta actividade toda do fim de Verão.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Entretanto, está aí o Festival Internacional da Amadora (FIBDA), que além de ter trazido cá o CB Cebulski, também conta com estreias de livros de amigos e colegas de estúdio.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://lifeoflacas.blogspot.com/"&gt;Rui Lacas&lt;/a&gt; (além de ser o convidado de honra do festival e responsável pela imagem do evento) lança na Amadora o 1º número da série Asteroid Fighters;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://ricardopereiracabral.blogspot.com/"&gt;Ricardo Cabral&lt;/a&gt; lança o seu Israel Skecthbook;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://filipeandradeart.blogspot.com/"&gt;Filipe Andrade&lt;/a&gt; e Filipe Pina apresentam a compilação da série BRK;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://cadernosdedaath.blogspot.com/"&gt;David Soares&lt;/a&gt;, Osvaldo Medina e Mário Freitas lançam o álbum Mucha;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Além disso, foi uma bela ocasião para conhecer três excelentes artistas canadianos ligados ao projecto &lt;a href="http://www.txcomics.com/"&gt;Transmission X&lt;/a&gt;, editado agora pela &lt;a href="http://www.kingpin-of-comics.net/"&gt;Kingpin Books&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://cameronstewart.blogspot.com/"&gt;Cameron Stewart&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://www.ramonperez.com/"&gt;Ramon Pérez&lt;/a&gt; e &lt;a href="http://karlkerschl.com/"&gt;Karl Kerschl&lt;/a&gt;. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Resumindo, muita coisa se passa, e muita coisa promete passar-se nos próximos meses, por isso espero ter mais material para actualizar este blog mais regularmente.&lt;br /&gt;Deixo-vos com um esboço para a nova ideia...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-style:italic;"&gt;Busy times, dead blog...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The last few weeks have been filled with work and ressurecting projects.&lt;br /&gt;Defier #2 is coming to life again after several months of working to pay some bills, a delayed project with my colleague &lt;a href="http://almirantefujimori.blogspot.com/"&gt;Jorge Coelho&lt;/a&gt; is finally working as morning work out for my creative muscles, I'm writing a proposal with my colleague &lt;a href="http://www.chezpotes.blogspot.com/"&gt;Pedro Potier&lt;/a&gt; for a monthly national publication, and another idea of mine crept out of the drawer to join the end of Summer craziness.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Meanwhile, here is the Amadora International Festival (FIBDA), which besides bringing back CB Cebulski to our shores, also is home to several new releases of books of colleagues and friends of the studio.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://lifeoflacas.blogspot.com/"&gt;Rui Lacas&lt;/a&gt; (besides being the guest of honor and creator of the festival's look) is launching the 1st number from his series Asteroid Fighters;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://ricardopereiracabral.blogspot.com/"&gt;Ricardo Cabral&lt;/a&gt; will be presenting his Israel Sketchbook;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://filipeandradeart.blogspot.com/"&gt;Filipe Andrade&lt;/a&gt; and Filipe Pina present the compilation of their series BRK;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://cadernosdedaath.blogspot.com/"&gt;David Soares&lt;/a&gt;, Osvaldo Medina e Mário Freitas launch their album Mucha;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;On top of that, it was a great opportunity three excelent canadian artists connected with the project &lt;a href="http://www.txcomics.com/"&gt;Transmission X&lt;/a&gt;, now being published by &lt;a href="http://www.kingpin-of-comics.net/"&gt;Kingpin Books&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://cameronstewart.blogspot.com/"&gt;Cameron Stewart&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://www.ramonperez.com/"&gt;Ramon Pérez&lt;/a&gt; e &lt;a href="http://karlkerschl.com/"&gt;Karl Kerschl&lt;/a&gt;. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In short, there's a lot going on, and a lot promises to go on in the next few months, so I hope I'll have more material to update this blog more regularly. &lt;br /&gt;I leave with a sketch from the new idea.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/ven01/4047268786/"

type='text'>Killer of Demons pin-up</title><content type='html'>Lembram-se quando disse que tinha feito um pin-up para a série Killer of Demons?&lt;br /&gt;Como os três números da série já estão cá fora compilados, já tive o OK para pôr a imagem online.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Aqui está ela, e é das últimas imagens em que usei este tratamento com côres lisas, e como disse num post anterior, está na altura de tentar outras coisas.&lt;br /&gt;Obrigado ao Chris Yost e ao Scott Wegener pelo convite.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Num àparte só em português acerca de um trabalho meu e de colegas meus de estúdio, saiu na última 6ª-feira uma BD na edição diária do jornal "i" relacionada com o 11 de Setembro. &lt;br /&gt;Por causa de uma série de mal-entendidos, o trabalho acabou por ser publicitado como "uma BD de desenhadores portugueses da Marvel".&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Queria aqui esclarecer que nenhum dos meus colegas ou ex-colegas que trabalhou com a Marvel esteve envolvido neste trabalho, e que eu não estou nem nunca estive ligado contractualmente à Marvel, apenas tive um projecto com o escritor CB Cebulski, No Quarter, que neste momento está suspenso indefinidamente.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;O mito dos Quatro da Marvel partiu, se bem me lembro, de uma informação errada avançada pela Agência Lusa, que se espalhou por várias outras notícias, foi desmentida vezes sem conta, mas que parece não querer desaparecer.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Neste momento, os meus projectos andam à volta do 2º número de Defier, e a pré-produção de outras ideias que tenho na cabeça. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Nada de Marvel (ou Disney).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-style:italic;"&gt;Remember when I said I had done a pin-up for the series Killer of Demons?&lt;br /&gt;Since the three numbers of the series are out there in TPB form, I’ve had the okay to put the piece online.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Here it is, and it’s one of the last images I’ve done using this flat color treatment, as I wrote in an earlier post, it’s time to try new things.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/ven01/3931337708/" title="KOD

type='text'>Spacenite 2</title><content type='html'>Tenho aproveitado as poucas oportunidades que tenho para fazer trabalhos de gozo para experimentar outras técnicas de côr, uma vez que tenho achado recentemente os meus acabamentos pouco personalizados e demorados.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Aqui vai a última tentativa, mais uma peça sobre o ROM, a personagem escrita por &lt;a href="http://pt.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bill_Mantlo"&gt;Bill Mantlo&lt;/a&gt; para a Marvel. O segundo tributo volta a ser impulsionado por Jason Leivian da &lt;a href="http://www.floatingworldcomics.com/main/"&gt;Floating World Comics&lt;/a&gt;, a quem agradeço pelo novo convite.&lt;br /&gt;Infelizmente, o tributo foi adiado para 2010 para reunir ainda mais contribuições, mas o Jason deu-me o aval para colocar a imagem online, sempre ajuda na publicidade.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-style:italic;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I've used the few opportunities I've had to do fun work to test other coloring techniques, since I've been recently looking at my treatments as too generic and time-consuming.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Here's the latest trial, another pice about ROM, the character written by &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bill_Mantlo"&gt;Bill Mantlo&lt;/a&gt; for Marvel. The second tribute is once again organized by Jason Leivian from &lt;a href="http://www.floatingworldcomics.com/main/"&gt;Floating World Comics&lt;/a&gt;, to whom I thank for the new invitation.&lt;br /&gt;Unfortunately, the tribute was pushed to 2010 to gather even more contributions, but Jason has given me the go ahead to put the piece online, doesn't hurt to plug the event from the early hours.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/ven01/3898141962/" title="Rom for Spacenite II by Ven01, on Flickr"&gt;&lt;img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2465/3898141962_be3d5e215b_o.jpg" width="600" height="927" alt="Rom for Spacenite II" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/11321447-3341756031589668456?l=2depaus.blogspot.com'/&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://2depaus.blogspot.com/feeds/3341756031589668456/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='https://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=11321447&amp;postID=3341756031589668456&amp;isPopup=true' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/11321447/posts/default/3341756031589668456'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/11321447/posts/default/3341756031589668456'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://2depaus.blogspot.com/2009/09/spacenite-2.html' title='Spacenite 2'/><author><name>Ricardo Venâncio</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/18060474281294244404</uri><email>2depaus@gmail.com</email><gd:extendedProperty xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' name='OpenSocialUserId' value='14829325512348617085'/></author><thr:total xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0'>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11321447.post-1365838462199778207</id><published>2009-09-02T15:08:00.003+01:00</published><updated>2009-09-02T16:16:07.141+01:00</updated><title type='text'>Moving on up!</title><content type='html'>Novidades, novidades! &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Depois de umas semanas a colaborar com o pessoal da &lt;a href="http://www.myspace.com/droid_id"&gt;Droid_ID&lt;/a&gt;, eis que estreia amanhã no &lt;a href="http://www.motelx.org/"&gt;MOTELx&lt;/a&gt; a curta FRUNC. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Apareçam amanhã no Cinema São Jorge e vejam o que um grupo de geeks de terror e sci-fi faz sem orçamento e qualquer critério de gosto. :)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Noutras notícias, tentando esquivar-me a alterações de trabalhos que parecem ter mais vidas que gatos zombies e a necessidade de entrar deifinitivamente nos projectos de BD que tenho pendentes, estou em processo de mudança de casa.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Setembro é mês de mudar de vida!

Right now, I'm stuck between the enthusiasm of the new home and the mental gymnastics of programming furniture drop-offs and slimming down all the junk I've been gathering in my life.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I hope this move will get me back on track to what I really want to do from here on end.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/ven01/3881698360/" title="poster Frunc by Ven01, on Flickr"&gt;&lt;img src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3499/3881698360_36e124c0be_o.jpg" width="600" height="889" alt="poster Frunc" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/11321447-1365838462199778207?l=2depaus.blogspot.com'/&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://2depaus.blogspot.com/feeds/1365838462199778207/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='https://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=11321447&amp;postID=1365838462199778207&amp;isPopup=true' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/11321447/posts/default/1365838462199778207'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/11321447/posts/default/1365838462199778207'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://2depaus.blogspot.com/2009/09/moving-on-up.html' title='Moving on up!'/><author><name>Ricardo Venâncio</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/18060474281294244404</uri><email>2depaus@gmail.com</email><gd:extendedProperty xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' name='OpenSocialUserId' value='14829325512348617085'/></author><thr:total xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0'>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11321447.post-2375306659437215168</id><published>2009-08-06T00:59:00.003+01:00</published><updated>2009-08-06T01:59:10.040+01:00</updated><title type='text'>Entrevista Art Playground | Interview Art Playground</title><content type='html'>Para quem estiver interessado, tenho uma entrevista numa publicação online sobre Artes chamada &lt;a href="http://artplaygroundmag.blogspot.com/"&gt;The Art Playground Magazine&lt;/a&gt;, dirigida por Chema Mansilla, a quem agradeço o convite.&lt;br /&gt;Esta entrevista foi dada no princípio deste ano, enquanto acabava o 1º número do Defier, mas só há pouco tempo é que foi posta online. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A entrevista serviu para falar sobre influências, motivações e experiências de trabalho.

Vamos ver o que sai.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Entretanto, estas próximas semanas vão ser de colaboração com a Droid_id num novo projecto a revelar mais para a frente.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Hora de trabalhar.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-style:italic;"&gt;I'm back from my vacation week with a fresh mind and some will to work.

Estou a fazer os possíveis por me livrar dos “compromissos comerciais” para poder me poder concentrar no que me dá gozo mais à frente.&lt;br /&gt;Volto daqui a uma semana com fotos de Beja.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;One month later, time to update this blog.&lt;br /&gt;I've been busy with jobs to pay the bills and which, at the same time, ensure the right level of stress and despair to make me want to run away into the white of a sequential page and into a world where the rules are mine and not anyone else’s.&lt;br /&gt;Because of these commitments I’ve been postponing the progress on the second volume of my project Defier and of other endeavours, but I hope to turn that around soon, for the sake of my mental health.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Meanwhile, not all bodes ill lately.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Recently, following my contribution to Atomic Robo, I also made a pin-up for another project from Scott Wegener, &lt;a href="http://killerofdemons.com/Site/KOD!.html"&gt;Killer of Demons&lt;/a&gt;, written by Christopher Yost and published by Image Comics, which I’ll post here when possible.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Also, next weekend I’ll be at the &lt;a href="http://www.festivalbdbeja.net/"&gt;International Comics Festival of Beja&lt;/a&gt; presenting the first chapter from Defier and having fun with the friends, the good weather (I hope) and the Alentejo good life.&lt;br /&gt;This is the second year the studio travels down to Beja and, after bumping into Dave Mckean last year, I’ve just learned that &lt;a href="http://blog.dootdootgarden.com/"&gt;Craig Thompson&lt;/a&gt; will be there signing books and presenting originals.&lt;br /&gt;Next weekend promises to be good!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;That’s it for now.

Hoje faço 31 anos e, apesar de uma pequena constipação trazida de França (sou fino, só coisas importadas...), e de não ter grande paciência para organizar comemorações a uma 5ª feira, o espírito está porreiro e encontro-me a escrever o que falta do nº 2 de Defier.&lt;br /&gt;Conto começar as pranchas a andar na próxima semana. Nada de parar para respirar, há muita coisa a melhorar na minha técnica e no meu storytelling. Defier é um trabalho de aprendizagem e quanto mais depressa eu aprender melhor me torno, por isso é tempo de voltar à carga.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Num àparte, hoje cheguei ao estúdio para encontrar uma prenda espectacular, cortesia do Mestre Jorge Coelho.&lt;br /&gt;Podem ver a prenda no &lt;a href="http://almirantefujimori.blogspot.com/2009/02/parabens-ven-happy-birthday-ven.html"&gt;blog do Jorge&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-style:italic;"&gt;We went to Angouleme and came back with some interesting stories, but that's for another post.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Today is a birthday, mine, to be more exact. I'm 31 today and, apart a minor cold I brought from France (I'm fancy, only imported stuff for me...), and not having the patience to organize a celebration on a Thursday, my spirits are high and I'm now writing what's left of Defier #2.&lt;br /&gt;I plan on starting the page work next week. There's no time to waste, there's too much to improve in my technique and on my storytelling.&lt;br /&gt;Defier is a learning job and the faster I learn the better I get, so it's time to get back into it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As a sidenote, I arrived at the studio today to find a great gift, courtesy of Master Jorge Coelho.&lt;br /&gt;You can see it &lt;a href="http://almirantefujimori.blogspot.com/2009/02/parabens-ven-happy-birthday-ven.html"&gt;at Jorge's blog&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/11321447-3022187106902224276?l=2depaus.blogspot.com'/&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://2depaus.blogspot.com/feeds/3022187106902224276/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='https://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=11321447&amp;postID=3022187106902224276&amp;isPopup=true' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/11321447/posts/default/3022187106902224276'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/11321447/posts/default/3022187106902224276'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://2depaus.blogspot.com/2009/02/31.html' title='31'/><author><name>Ricardo Venâncio</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/18060474281294244404</uri><email>2depaus@gmail.com</email><gd:extendedProperty xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' name='OpenSocialUserId' value='14829325512348617085'/></author><thr:total xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0'>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11321447.post-3087777208864648832</id><published>2009-01-17T16:20:00.000Z</published><updated>2009-01-17T16:21:35.104Z</updated><title type='text'>Nº 1 Pronto | #1 Ready</title><content type='html'>Finalmente, o primeiro número do meu projecto, Defier, está terminado, assim como todo o trabalho de pós-produção. &lt;br /&gt;A experiência tem sido cansativa, mas, ao contrário de trabalhos recentes, o resultado tem sido muito compensador.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://lifeofpepe.blogspot.com/"&gt;Pepe&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://oficinadoduque.blogspot.com/"&gt;Sérgio&lt;/a&gt; e &lt;a href="http://almirantefujimori.blogspot.com/"&gt;Jorge&lt;/a&gt;, um grande obrigado pelo esforço na paginação do livro.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Não há nada (mesmo nada) como fazer o que se gosta e aprender com isso.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Agora, tudo depende do tempo que demorar a impressão, mas o prazo aperta bastante e corremos o risco de não haver exemplares para vender em Angouleme. Façam figas, por favor.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Seja como for, o livro está feito e no pior dos cenários, estará à venda em Fevereiro, por isso continuem a visitar o blog para saber quais os locais de venda ou como encomendá-lo.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Tempo de preparar o segundo número antes de curtir a viagem a França e mesmo que não tenha o livro na mão lá, a festa da comitiva portuguesa (acho que somos uns 12, se não me engano) está garantida. &lt;br /&gt;Assim que voltar no princípio de Fevereiro, é hora de voltar ao estirador para mais 32 pranchas de história. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Isto não pode parar. A Caixa de Pandora foi aberta e não há meio de fechá-la.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-style:italic;"&gt;Finally, the first number of my project, Defier, is finished, as well as all of the post-production work.&lt;br /&gt;The experience has been very tiring, but, unlike recent jobs, the result has been very rewarding. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://lifeofpepe.blogspot.com/"&gt;Pepe&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://oficinadoduque.blogspot.com/"&gt;Sérgio&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a href="http://almirantefujimori.blogspot.com/"&gt;Jorge&lt;/a&gt;, a big thank you for all the effort in the packaging of the book.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There’s nothing (and I mean nothing) like doing what you love and learning from it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Now, it all depends on the time it will take to print, but the deadline is very tight and we’re in serious jeopardy of not having the issues ready to sell in Angouleme. Cross your fingers, please.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Anyway, the book is done and worst case scenario, it will be out in February, so keep coming back to the blog to know where it will be for sale and how to order it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Time to prepare the second issue before enjoying the trip to France, and even if I don’t have the book in my hand there, the Portuguese party is guaranteed there (I think we’ll be up to 12 guys there).&lt;br /&gt;As soon as I return home at the start of February, it’s time to go back to the drawing board to bust out 32 pages more of story.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This thing cannot be stopped. We’ve opened Pandora’s Box and there’s no way of closing it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/ven01/3198497537/" title="Defier #1 cover by Ven01, on

type='text'>A Meio | Half Way</title><content type='html'>Os últimos tempos têm sido consumidos pelo trabalho na minha história e, apesar do esforço, o livro tem corrido que nem um louco para a meta sem olhar para o lado e quase sem distracções.&lt;br /&gt;Os lápis das primeiras 32 páginas estão praticamente acabados, e já começam a haver artes finais e cinzentos a aparecer no computador, mas ainda falta muito trabalho pela frente. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Queria aproveitar o momento para pedir desculpas a quem não tenho falado, e aos amigos que não me põe os olhos em cima há meses.&lt;br /&gt;Eu sei que tenho estado ausente, mas o ano tem sido atribulado, e este trabalho é o que me tem mantido a cabeça no lugar. Assim que acabar, prometo que volto à vida, se estiverem desse lado.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Por enquanto, uma imagem para mostrar como andam as coisas.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-style:italic;"&gt;Lately, my time has been consumed by the work on my story and, although tiring, the book has been running like a madman for the finish line with looking to the sidesand nearly without distractions.&lt;br /&gt;The pencils for the first 32 pages are pratically done, there's some inking going on too, and already some greys are coming up on my computer, but there's still a lot of work to be done.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I'd like to take the moment to say sorry to the people I haven't got in touch with and the friends who haven't seen me in months.&lt;br /&gt;I know I've been absent, but this has been a rough year and this work is the only thing keeping my head together right now. As soon as I'm done, I promise I'll come back to life, if you're still on that side.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In the meantime, a picture to show you how things have progressed.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br
