Dingir: Adventures of the Gods Issue 5


Issue 4 was my foray into color, but it came just before I finished with grad school. In other words I didn’t have time to build up a buffer. I’m working on the first five pages of the comic just now. The myth will be Enki and Ninhursag: The Flaws of Man.

I have the first eight pages penciled, the first five have been inked, the first two have color, none have the final finishing touches, and none have been lettered. They look beautiful. I can finally say that I know how to draw and show off my comic art proudly.

If you haven’t read the comic you can find it here: http://templeofsumer.org/comic/ .

Introduction


OK, so what I am doing here is creating a blog to complement the Temple of Sumer (T/S) web page. On this blog I will be posting news, updates, and special features. TempleofSumer.org needs some extra features, so I will attempt to provide those in this blog rather than make my web guy want to kill me.

There are a few hundred Sumerians floating around on four continents (that I know of). These Sumerians have little in the way of a community, and some of that is my fault. I went to grad school and was AWOL for a few years.

As some of you are aware, I do not do blogs. I am fluent in rant however. Since rants can be annoying, and since Sumerians will not necessarily want to read my rants I will tag these. I’m also new to tags, so be prepared.

I’ll be posting news for any Sumerian issue that I find, but I will also be posting non Sumerian things here from time to time. When “Dingir: Adventures of the Gods” updates I’ll mention this here.

As I am new to blogs I am not really sure what format I want. Because of this I am creating http://templeofsumer.wordpress.com/ and http://templeofsumer.blogspot.com/ . For now I will be making them in parallel, but I don’t know how long that will last. When (if) one becomes clearly superior I will focus my efforts on that one.
