Added 2 new A* pages:Made myself banish some evil spirits with warm up drawing today:

I came across an adventure comic with interesting black and white scribbley computer art that kinda reminds me of what I was doing when I did A* in Photoshop with the Lasso Tool; the webcomic is Athra, self-described as "The Thinking Man's Conan." I'm not sure if it--or the other links I'm about to post--are entirely "work safe" all the way through, so proceed with that in mind.
 
Athra's author also posts quite a bit of art from other artists in each of his blog updates, and through one of those I spotted another scribbley computer artist whose stuff I rather like: Richard Anderson, whose site is flaptraps art. Actually the stuff I like most there is the distinctly not-safe-for-work black and white series in the "personal" gallery. I wish I wish I could keep that kind of liquidity and looseness in these A* pages but I only seem to get a bit of it here and there. Still trying to work out how to do that in ink I guess.
 
And also through Athra (eyyy) I came across the perhaps discontinued "blaxploitation" webcomic World of Hurt, which has an inky black and white style that is very reminiscent of the great adventure strips of the past. Lots of nice brushiness there.
