Colombina’s Illusion Part II Cover Art

Clara Ravens Episode 4: Colombina's Illusion - Part II Cover ArtWe are, for the fourth or fifth time now, back underway on Clara Ravens Episode 4: Colombina’s Illusion – Part II. I am putting all of my effort into finishing it this time out. There are many, many pages of the script left to render, and we have barely started on sound effects. None of the animation is done, either. So we still have a monumental undertaking ahead of us, but I have committed myself to late nights and long weeks in order to get this thing finished and released so I can move onto more projects in the Dark Rift universe (which is really where my passion is these days).

I will release what I can in the way of teasers. I’ll likely reveal at least one of the bundled wallpapers (in a smaller format) like I did for the previous release, but there won’t be much else. So I may end up just rendering random stuff or doing smaller commissions here and there just to keep you all engaged with new content. The comics can be a slog, so please bear with me. These things are a lot of work and, as you all know, CR4 is/was the most ridiculously ambitious project we’ve done.

I hope you like the cover. I’ll post more stuff soon. Enjoy your weekend, everyone!

RANDOM OFF-TOPIC: Anyone playing the ‘early access’ PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds? I’ve been squadding up with Xipomus and some other friends, and just going it solo here and there too. That game is fucking incredibly addictive. Best game solo was three kills, and best rank was 11th place so far. I’m really not too good at the game, but I can’t stop playing it!

Babysitter for Hire

Celo Barca - Clara Ravens Ep. 4: Colombina's IllusionMeet Celo Barca. He’s known simply as Barca by his friends (or would be, if he had any friends). He calls Honduras home, though he is not originally from there. He enjoys exploring ancient Mayan ruins and homicide. Barca is available to babysit your kids. He is batshit insane…

Barca will be a recurring character in the Clara Ravens series, and will be making his terrifying debut in Episode 4: Colombina’s Illusion. He is based on perhaps the most sadistic and maniacal video game villain ever: Vaas from Far Cry 3. Here’s a little synopsis: Continue reading “Babysitter for Hire”
