Metropolis - The Gallery Show

Hi

So there is a community arts centre here in Richmond BC.  Along with being a place where kids and adults can learn things like pottery, yoga, painting and lapidary, they also curate a couple of gallery spaces.

Each year they put out a call to local artists to submit their work for the galleries.

This year, I submitted Metropolis.  They really liked it.  So much that Metropolis will be on display in two galleries.

The Gateway Theatre
6500 Gilbert Road, Richmond BC V7C 3V4
Nov. 26 2012 to Jan. 7 2013
Lobby Gallery
Phone the theatre for public access times.
604-270-1812
PS: They're putting on "Fiddler on the Roof" so come for the show and the gallery.

Richmond Cultural Centre

Feb. 1 - 28, 2013
Upper Rotunda Gallery

I'm very excited about this.  I hope if you are in town, you can come by and see it.

Hi

So I've been messing with the layout of the on-line version of the comic trying to get it to look consistent.  The problem is that "Metropolis" exists firstly in the Fold-Your-Own-Comic version.  The layout of the panels and pages in that format don't jive with a consistent layout for the on-line version.  It could be consistent if I make every chapter 8 full page panels, but I don't want to do that.  I wouldn't be able to make any groovy double page spreads.

After lots of work and experimenting, I think I've come up with a reasonable solution.  Over the next little while, I'll be updating the past chapters to the new layout.  Anyone who is collecting the on-line version will now have a nice clean layout to view them through.

Hope you're enjoying the story.

Have a good day.
