Roasting Marshmallows

Ah yes, In the state of Minnesota, we can only have fountains and sparkler types of fireworks. While Fes has the obvious illegal kind, even the Minnesota legal one are not allowed in state parks whatsoever.

Enter the Ranger

Yay! A new character I meant to have over 12 strips ago! This is Ranger Bob. Who's name may only be punny to Canadians... and doubly punny if you know who Ranger Rick is.

In any case, I'm just moving along the story a bit more. There should be another character in November coming into the fray too. Not neccessarily continuous characters, but they are at least not nameless characters that don't influence the story... unlike that rabbit clerk in the park office.

Pitch a Tent.

Fes and Ernst finally set up their tent. With no problems... no problems at all.

Return of the Elbutt

Again, lateness due to work. My goal is to keep updating M-W-F without bleeding into T-T-S-S at all. Anyway, Lucy is leaving today. THANKS FOR COMING LUCY! Also, Thanks to Mat Sherer for letting me borrow Lucy from Badly Drawn Kitties!!

Dig in.

Sorry for the late update!! MUCH later than I planned but work ran WAY LATE today! Anyway, Yes, in case you have not read the archives, let me explain. The world of this comic has basically all land animals as Anthropomorphic beings. Therefore, the foodsource has to change. I don't like doing things as "taboo" so I came up with plants and bugs as the new food source. Also Bugs double as the "wildlife" so they are much bigger than normal.

So there.

Also, please note that I will be trying out a new message board! Click the link on the sidebar. I plan to eliminate this Blogger thing, as it seems cumbersome.

Infendo Radio #29

Infendo Radio #29 is up and available for download! I compare the 360 to the Wii a bit, and then mention the lack of ads for the Wii. The segment gets warmed up at about 14:38.

Always having to be right.

Who can really argue of who is the worst of worst singers? Lucy used to do CD reviews for a company called "Sonica" back in the day. In any case, next week, I think, will be Lucy's last week with PSI. After that I got to get to the evening and the next day. Fes and Ernst are going to be pissed they missed all of Autumn because its going to be winter when thry get back from their summer vacation.

Good Company.

Sometimes there is no good company except for argumentative company... Well maybe not for Ernst, but Fes certainly enjoys it. I wanted to do more with the Tailrazor band and Jezzebel (courtesy of Marcy Osedo), but the story and time frame did not work out well. As far as I know, Jezzebel appears in no other comic (that I could find) other than Badly Drawn Kitties.

To see 'Whiplash' in Lucy's studio, click HERE.

Ernst is Hungry on Yom Kippur

Well Ernst isn't Jewish, so he can still eat. I just wanted to acknowledge the biggest (I think) Jewish holiday since it seems to get overlooked a lot. So to those that celebrate Yom Kippur: Have a good fasting and all else that is done!

Anyway, Comic is up and this week should clip along well. I have it all planned out for Wednesday's and Friday's comics. To those that found the link from Mat's site, Badly Drawn Kitties, thank you for stopping by!

Also, the Infendo Radio Show #28 with my segment, Two Cents in Sixty Seconds, is now available! Go Here. My spot is at about 20:04. I discuss the Opera browser for the Nintendo Wii system, coming out November 19th.

Friday, September 29, 2006

Exit, Stage Left.

FINALLY got the comic up! Sorry for the wait! So yea, go HERE to see what Lucy is talking about.

Wednesday, September 27, 2006

Fake except for the pain?

For those of you that did not know, Lucy was once apart of New Talian Professional Wresting for a short while. Right now we seem to moving along at a good clip, as I managed to tell a joke in one strip.

Monday, September 25, 2006

Sing your heart out... when no one is looking.

Comic finally up. Hopefully I can start the funny now. Could not think of a funny way to introduce Lucy because I had Ernst forget about the Tent and Stick... And I just had to have continuity. Oh well, I'm sure it will read better in the archives.

The song that Fes is singing is "SHAKEDOWN" by theSTART. You can go to their website at thisisthestart.com. They have a player in the top right, and you can select it to play. And, as stated in last week's comic, the CD is indeed out of print.

Infendo Radio #27

My 9th segment on Infendo Radio with my Two Cents in Sixty Seconds. Its at 9:28. I discuss possibile inspirations for Nintendo's Wii controller interface.

Holiday Special

To the Jewish and Pagan viewers out there. Have a merry Rosh Hashanah and Mabon (Autumn Equinox)! Holiday comics are going to be somewhat simple like this. I will usually try to have something for various major holidays.

EDIT: Apparently it's Ramadan (sp?) today was well. To those that fast for Ramadan, have a good fasting.

Start the Music

Yea, not really a funny comic today. But not every comic needs to be that funny when I am trying to progress the story. No Sunday Diversion this weekend because I need to concentrate on the main part of this story. I'm just glad I got a jab against that HEAD ON product before they aired commercials jabbing themselves. (View archives and then look for Sunday Diversions).

Side note: While no Sunday Diversion. I'm going to try and post a Holiday Comic tomorrow. Something simple for the two Holidays that land on this Saturday.

Wednesday, September 20, 2006

Someone New

Someone new has popped in. Lucy! From Mat Sherer's Badly Drawn Kitties! Yes not too much funny today, but more to come on Friday! If you don't know why Ernst is calling her "Monica Sweet", stay tuned! If you do know, stay tuned anyway!

Monday, September 18, 2006

Smoke 'em!

Need to move along a bit. I'm preparing for the special guest LUCY from Mat Sherer's Badly Drawn Kitties! Check out the archives. A very popular comic when it was active, and remains one of my top webcomics to date as well as 1/4th the inspiration to start my own comic.

Lucy's appearance starts on Wednesday!

Sunday Diversion: HEADON

Anyone getting tired of these commercials?

Friday, September 15, 2006

Finally! Camp!

Well Fes and Ernst finally get to camp! And for those that don't know Fes' real name is "David" and he just goes by his nickname... Just in case you didn't read up in the about section. Anyway, that will come up in the comic next week Wednesday or Friday when Lucy, from Badly Drawn Kitties, will be stopping by!

Also, Check Sunday for a new Sunday Diversion comic, and the Monday for the main story!

Happy Birthday to Fes!

It's Fes's and my (Fesworks) birthday today! Yay! Ernst's birthday will be on 10-26. How old am I? Not telling, so there.

What is in store in the NEAR future? Mat Sherer's Lucy from Badly Drawn Kitties fame will be a special guest in the current arc! Hopefully this will happen next week. I'm taking special care to have a good story and interactions as well as character design. This is the first time I am actually doing something specifically planned. So stay tuned!

Respect without Politics (#14)

Comic is up. I could not really think of what to do for today without being too political. And being real political is not what I intend for this comic, nor should be a subject matter for today anyway.

So this is what I came up with. Progress the story, yet being respectful. I don't need to try and squeeze a joke in all the time either. And it works out ok this way too.

Sunday Diversions #1

Well here we go. Something new I'm going to try.... not much to say here since I explain it all in the "comic". Sunday Diversions will be seperated from the main Arc in the archives. This may help for when I want to do a random comic. Or want to break the 4th wall directly than through my personas Fes and Enrst.

Also, check out my ABOUT page. There is new stuff to read at the top. Give some insight into myself (portrayed as an Anthro-Wolf), Fes, & Ernst. We are all one, but all seperate.

Infendo Radio #25

Infendo's 25th radio show is now available for download. My segment starts at about 18:40.

Enjoy Infendo Radio #25

EDIT: I also updated the ABOUT section. I added some stuff to the top explaining Fes, Ernst, and myself.

Going Camping! #13

Part 13 is now up for your viewing pleasure! Again from #12, the Crayon Car returns from Badly Drawn Kitties fame! As well as a quick play on some of those 'thoughts' sequences that Mat Sherer draws up as well.

There will be another Special Guest coming up in the Arc too, but I won't say when... because at the rate I do things never pans out as long as I think. But Hopefully soon.

Next Comic to appear on Monday.

Wednesday, September 06, 2006

Going Camping! #12

Part 12 is now up! I will also keep the old BDK fanart up until the next time I update. If anyone noticed before they saw the notice, That's a Crayon Car from Mat's BDK comics. I plan to do another BDK parody in the next comic.

Next Comic should be up on Friday Night or Saturday Morning.

Old BDK Fan Art I did

This is a Fan Art Piece I did for Mat for Badly Drawn Kitties when he asked fans to submit fan art for Lydia and Dirk's wedding. This was before I made my comic and had my own style, so I did it as mock art.

Mat's comic, BDK, has been basically retired for a year, sadly. But check out the 4 years of archives.

Will open in a new window: BDK Fan Art by Fesworks

Infendo Radio Podcast #24

The Infendo Radio Podcast is now up with my segment regarding the "gun" attachment for the upcoming Nintendo system, Wii. They start talking about my spot at about 13:13 on the show.

Infendo Radio Show #24

New Host on Labor Day

New webcomic on Monday, Labor Day. Plus this will be the day of changing to the new host over at Xepher.net . I will have AUTOMATIC page redirections until people update their bookmarks. "Fesworks.com" should redirect to the new site as well by Labor Day.

Going Camping! #10

Part 10 is up! Yes, I know the fourth wall is being tampered with, but what can you expect when the two main characters are the personas of the artist, and are aware of who they are, but still prisoners of the world of their own making?

Anyway, I have just been accepted under the hosting of Xepher.net and I will be soon moving the comic over there as soon I as adjust some coding in all the pages for the new site. I will also have to update a number of comic sites of which this comic is listed on. Fesworks.com should soon redirect to the Xepher.net site by next week, and this site (hosted by atspace.com) will have redirect pages.

Going Camping! #9

Part 9 is now up! I am on a roll! Hopefully people won't be angry that Ernst is wearing clothes now, but this outfit is temporary since it's still in joke context. I was going to say "Fanny Pack" in place of "Waist Pouch" but "fanny pack" seems to be a regional term... and might mean something else in other places.

Next comic should appear on Friday night or Saturday morning.

Monday, August 28, 2006

Going Camping! #8

Alright! Part 8 updated today! Busted my butt Sunday night because I could not sleep. This comic went through 3 revisions before I settled on the direction and the joke. And now we know a bit more about the universe, and have an explanation for Ernst to now where clothes. Fes will change clothes after the first hike. I hope people like camping, because I predict that this arc is going to last another 30 strips at the minimum. But who cares! I'm having fun!

Next comic should appear on Wednesday night or Thursday morning.

Infendo Radio Podcast #23

Well, a little delayed, but Saturday's show is now up and ready for download. My '2 Cents in 60 Seconds' segment is at about 19:00 on the show. I discuss the color choices Nintendo has choosen for American DS Lite colors. Enjoy.

Infendo Radio Show #23

Look for a Comic update this afternoon!

Many Thanks!

By the way, I'd like to thank a few people on that message board. They have been helping me out with ideas.

Thanks to V_Guyver for Ernst's name, and an upcoming character.
Thanks to 3dDude for character ideas and developments.
Thanks to Deymus, Acidevil, Coitus, mattrix33, MCT, and stixx for the additional support too!
Special thanks to otogaci for seeing that I look like Gordan Freeman.

It's a really great board with a variety of discussion, and mischief to boot:

Where I get some ideas.

Just a heads up for where I have been getting some of my ideas for the comic. It's a great niche gaming message board. A good bunch of mischief makers, with a variety of threads. Good times.

The Gaming Revolution

Going Camping! #7

Comic 27 up! Part 7 to what will be a very long camping arc. But I am loving the direction this is going, and I have plenty of ideas! I am still slowly evolving my comic. As people may see, Ernst now as upgraded to Rat ears instead of mouse ears. AH and a resolution to the universe: If Anthro Furries exist alongside humans, what is the wildlife? Part 8 will reveal a bit more.

Also, What is with these guys breaking the fourth wall? Well, Fes & Ernst are both personas of myself... one of which is the webcomic artist. Which is myself. So the persona of myself that is Fes, is also what represents me as the artist... drawing himself and the world around him. While his other persona, Ernst, also knows this, but also lives along side the world. As of now, He has not realized that he's been "mutating", yet, into a more anthromorphic being. And soon he will be wearing clothes like everyone else.

Boy, its confusing isn't it?

New art style + Going Camping! #6

 Part 6 is up! I hope the new look is more pleasing to the eye and better to read! I love the new font, and I think the Inking and Gray scaling look great!

This is closer to what I originally wanted to do. You may have noticed that Ernst had sprouted thumbs a while back, and now has full legs. You see, I wanted to have Anthromorphic animals... but I was merely drawing them as Giant Animals that could talk. I am strongly considering to have the Anthomorphs to wear clothing... or at least some clothing, ala Yogi Bear style, to some extent.

PSI Whining

This is all I will have for now because I can't figure out how to properly embed the Blogger, NOR how to edit the Blogger code to get the look I want without messing up all the needed code.

Anyway, I'm going to try this and see how it works.
