First
of all, Pre-ordering for the Directions of Destiny book is now
officially closed! The next opportunity to purchase it will be at Anime
Expo in the Anaheim Convention Center from July 1~4 from my table in
the Artist Alley, and if there are still books left, online ordering
will be available afterwards on July 5th!
And yes, I will be attending Anime Expo! Come visit me if you plan on going :D
Also,
prior to Anime Expo, I will be in Japan for two weeks, from June 17
until July 1, so there will not be comic updates within that span of
time.
Finally, I've indeed updated the comic with new
pages! ...plus one revised page XD. The new ones are pages
4 and 5 of Section 1.3, and the revised page is page 3 of the same
section. So! That's all from me. See you all in two
weeks!

This may be kind of short notice, but the last day to pre-order the Directions of Destiny book is this Thursday, June 16th. Come 12AM PST, Friday, Pre-ordering will be closed until after Anime Expo (July 5th). If you want to guarantee yourself a copy (along with a free sketch!), you have until Thursday.
I've also revamped the Artwork section of the Directions of Destiny
website, reorganizing and such (which took surprisingly longer than it
should have; I still have two sub-sections of it left to rework 9_9).
That's all! | | |
| Hey, I should totally update this!
Solike, in case you were out of the loop, pre-ordering for my first book of Directions of Destiny started a while back. The book's got 80 pages to it and contains Sections 1.1 and 1.2, plus some exclusive extras! It'll be released in July and it's selling for a measly $5! That's, like, less than fastfood! In conclusion, save yourself the cholesterol, and pre-order yourself a copy. :D
And as implied by the previous statements, Directions of Destiny is now through with Sections 1.1 and 1.2 of the new revision started back at the end of January! And my first semester of college is over now, which mea~ns I'll have way more time to work on comic pages :3. So hopefully the pace will quicken this summer!
Anyway, with the competion of Sections 1.1 and 1.2, I've also done a new image for the cover of Section 1.2:

Chapter I Title Page of Lapis Aquae
Brief summary of this past week: 2 new pages in Directions of Destiny, 2 new pages in Lapis Aquae.

| In a drastic turn of events, comic artist Hans Tseng decides to take his graphic novel series Directions of Destiny off WirePop, instead opting to replace it with a brand new comic titled Lapis Aquae!
Directions of Destiny was added to the line-up on WirePop, a webcomic subscription site which features top-quality webcomics in the style of Japanese manga, a little over a month ago, however, its time spent as a pay webcomic was short-lived. When asked for the reason that brought about this sudden change of heart, Tseng responded, "I just felt so bad about charging for a webcomic which had been free for the past three years. It's like, Oh, lah dee dah, free free free, OH NEVERMIND, SUCKERS!"
Lapis Aquae has been in the planning stages for the past six years, and was originally to be written as a series of novels titled Aqua Alps. However, realizing that prose form was not his focal point, Tseng decided to put the project on hold in order to start the sequential art series Directions of Destiny, which was at first intended to be "practice" for the graphic novel form of Lapis Aquae.
Directions of Destiny has since found a warm place in Tseng's heart as not just a guinea pig project, while Lapis Aquae has taken a significant turn from its original concept. Tseng hopes that his readers will come to enjoy both comics, and he reminds his fans that he greatly appreciates their support! | | |
