Episode Eleven: Tactics.

It's Christmas Eve, and I have decided to let you know what's happening this coming year in 2011. The extended clip for Hardest to Survive is on it's way, followed by clip 2, which should be posted on this blog sometime at the start of January. They are finished, and only need are going through an editing process. Filming of clip three will start in about two weeks as it has been delayed last week due to the snow. I am searching for more extras, if you are an actor/actress and believe you have the ability to become part of the next auditions in 2011 contact me through my blog or go on contacts and send an email to: andre1993farquha@yahoo.co.uk. Hardest to Survive is now on Facebook, if you are a user on that channel search for the ads and be a fan.

Finally, I will send out a gallery on the comic book miniseries, Nemesis the Hunter's Mark on January 18th after Nemesis Dawn of a Legend issue 14 is released. Dean Richards has completed work on the front cover and it looks fantastic. Julio Falkenhagen, co-artist on the book finished samples on the pages and will send me layouts for me to pencil. As for the covers for the web, I will do the rest later. I have posted the script of issue 11 right here as a treat. My computer has not been fixed yet, so until I get that sorted I can't post anymore front covers. However, the person who is supposed to do it has contacted me and said it is ready and should bring it over by tomorrow. Anyway, read the script and have a merry Christmas people.

Look out for the first issue of Nemesis the Hunter's Mark, keep posting and comment on the work I am doing. Thank you, bye.

Episodes delay & Hardest to Survive update!!!

Fans, it's been a really busy week this December. I have just finished a unit in my studies and I got a lot on my plate for English course work, I just don't get no break. I can't wait till Christmas, finally, anyway enough chat. I got some more sad news, episodes 11 and 12 are put off for another two weeks until I can get my act together in sorting out my covers but my computer is still getting fixed. Damn, so for now, just keep checking for the covers on past issues they should be available very soon. The scripts for those new issues are being re-written and I'm working on covers for them. Okay, now as with Hardest to Survive film, the clip will be shot. Again, sorry for the delay, it would have been done quicker if the people who are in charge of the editing room did not let us go. That will all change soon, Ezee Media and Frontier Entertainment is cutting ties with Artefacts Edutainment due to complications.

Well that's it for me, I'll be back with more blogs. Check out Kbon Reviews in the meantime he is doing film reviews for 'Buried' 'The Social Network' and Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 1. I will be releasing artwork for my upcoming comic book series Nemesis the Hunter's Mark, which includes character sketches, previews and concept art by different graphic artists' such as myself, Julio Fulkenhagen and Dean Richards soon. A teaser page of this will be out by the last issue of this web comic series. Get ready for the big hunt of a life time.



Take Care,

The Next Chapter...

Okay, people. I have some good news and some bad news. The good news is that I am slowly working on covers for issue 8, 9 and 10 but my main computer is down which is causing problems. Due to all the snow that is going around this Winter lately, it might take some time before I can load them up. Nemesis Dawn of a Legend#11 and#12 scripts are nearly ready but they have been re-scheduled for next Friday. The bad news is that due to how my schedule, method, lateness and expectations of this monthly web comic is, the series is going to wrap up at issue 14. Don't worry, though, I've always planned to wrap it up in fourteen issues. I am sure most of you dedicated fans who have read from the beginning must of read #10 where I haven't put a cover up for yet. As you can see, Henry's character by now has got what he wanted at a price and in the last story arc of this series "The Dual Line" we see how he gets on in the aftermath of his battle. I am not gonna say my goodbye's yet, but I want to say thank you for putting the trouble to read my stuff I have up here. I am very grateful, however, this is not over.

I have already made plans to re-print all fourteen issues back to back in printed form which are written by me of course along with the detailed art handed to by Rommel Fabian with me covering the layouts and new covers and some others in my team doing chores with my book. I am not sure when these all will be re-released but it's hopefully in mid 2011 and I'm not sure in what format, whether it will be in hard cover/soft cover graphic novel, a prestige book or collected items. One treat I got for you is to look out for the new comic book, which starts a new chapter I call Nemesis the Hunter's Mark with the first edition of #1 printed sometime in Jan 2011. I already completed the scripts for this, I am working on the pencils with comic book artist from Argentina, Julio Falkenhagen, while I'll be doing inks, my bro Kieron Boothe is doing the colours and Rommel Fabian is taking on lettering duty. That's enough from me, for now.I have a synopsis for issue 11 down below and I will be putting up a flash trailer of the new series very soon. They have been story-boarded, just sorting out the program to use them with.



Nemesis Dawn of a Legend#11






The Dual Line: Part 1 of 4: Tactics.

Meanwhile, his one time best friend turned rival, Ryan Mitchell guest stars this episode with Maria Francisco who has come back from her country in Puerto Rico, Carolina. Mitchell heads into the path of darkness after the stresses that inhabit his years are out of his control. With Henry unable to remember a fraction of his memories from the last vital points in his journey and is now the victim of multiple personalities - an entity known as The Shadow Man grows more powerful - corrupting the very nature that makes him a human. In each of us is light and dark but who is a hero or villain for good? Will Henry find the capacity to be the hunter who he is meant to be?"

Ryan Mitchell, his one time friend turned arch rival, plus his ex-girlfriend, Maria Francisco makes an appearance since many episodes back. Tucker and his gang, Cashmere, returns in a big way as Jackson slowly becomes the hunter who he is meant to be. Now that he learned who he really is and the nature of his great powers, having experienced his own father's world of murder and deception, Jackson is now in the darkest hour as he dwells on and suppresses the strong emotions in his terrible past. A line has been cut and in order for him to move on and forge a new identity that distances from his father's assignation, he must face his inner demons.

Film stills for The Hardest to Survive

Fans, it's now the beginning of November and times are getting colder but that's not stopping me. In this blog I have stills of the film clip we just shot in South East London. Playing Trey is Eugene Osei and the one in the purple Adidas, Nicholas Marshall, is going to be portraying Remo. There's more to come this week as Ezee will be editing one of the clips we shot and Jstaarz is doing the first clips with me. Also coming from Lil Dre, I have the synopsis for my tenth issue of the all renowned Nemesis Dawn of a Legend coming on Guy Fawkes Night. The cover for issue 8 should be released before then and you are going to have to wait for some artwork for issue 9 and 10 I'm afraid. Apart from that, cheer up and enjoy the pictures at hand. Hopefully, clips will be out soon enough.

Nemesis Dawn of a Legend#10

A Blank Slate part 6 of 6: Pyrrhic Victory

"Close on Richie, the assassin's heels, The Shadow Man (Henry Jackson) has found the headquarters of the secret organization known as The Commission. However, Jackson is now in for a fierce, battle royal as he enlists the aid of Tucker and his gang Cashmere against Richie, partner Sanchez and the whole fraternity of Secret Service men. Within rooms, corridors and stairs of HQ lie secrets kept from public knowledge for centuries plus documents on every man, women and child who are genetic anomalies - transcends - in the United States including Jackson that are kept behind lockers. The person who holds the key to it is someone who set this whole thing in motion - his parent's death, amnesia and birthright to name a few - now is time in order to kick butt and get some answers. No... it's not as simple as that as the puppeteer is pulling every one of Henry's strings. In the final part of A Blank Slate saga, Jackson will get a chance encounter of the infamous crime lord that no police force can touch."
