Hey Fox Talks

Tue, 08 Dec 2009 08:29:44 GMT

Hey!

Yeah, yeah, I haven't been updating here as much as I should be, but I haven't been doing a lot as much as I should be. LIke hanging out with friends, or drawing, or... eating. What can I say, I'm working on it. ^.^

So, you may have noticed that not only does this week bring a new Hey Fox comic, but also a little bit of an art update on the site. I was getting tired of the old banner and thought I'd spruce it up... than the buttons didn't look right, but I realized I'd lost my old template so... Well long story short new site look (not much different from the last site look) and a lot of hours lost. :: lol ::

Todays comic might be one of those "you must be at least this dirty minded to ride" kind of jokes, but I like it none the less. I know it's sort of cheap to use furry animal-based stereotyping as a punchline, but I like to come back to it once and a while.

Also working on other comic related stuff... more on that later. I hope. Maybe not... Anyway, let me know what you think about the site look and comic and, you know, whatever!

Love y'all!

Fox

Sad?

Thu, 19 Nov 2009 03:16:17 GMT

Hey!

Welcome to another episode of Schadenfreude Fox! Er... I mean, Hey Fox.

Ok, so today's comic is NOT, repeat, NOT how reality went down. It is, however, more interesting and/or dramatic. ^.^

More to come.

Love y'all!

Feeling a little under the weather...

Tue, 10 Nov 2009 21:19:49 GMT

Hey!

So yeah, been down and what not. FUKC IT! I'm going to cheer the fuck up if it kills me. :P

And guess what... Yeah, New Hey Fox posted today!

A reminder: This is not actually how things went down, but it's close enough for Fox's world. :: grin :: Today's comic is, I think, genuinely funny. Yay for not being 100% mopey and whiney huh? ^.^

By the way. I'm trying for NaNoWriMo again this year. I haven't posted about my novel yet, but I'll put up a excerpt soon. If you wanna keep track than hit the link, and if your participating too than go ahead and let me know so we can do that whole friend link thing.

Yeah..

So That's it for now.

Later!

Hey Fox news

Tue, 03 Nov 2009 20:32:43 GMT

Hey all.

So I haven't been around here lately, and the comic has been pretty slow to update. For those of you that haven't seen me in the meatspace lately, the short story is that I've not been dealing with reality very well lately.

More to the point I've been thinking about just ending Hey Fox.

I feel that doing so would be a disservice to myself however, so I've decided to force myself to continue.

Today I dropped just over a hundred bucks on URL's. So now you can find the comic at any combination of "heyfoxcomic" or "heyfoxcomics" dot "com" "org" or "net" now.

So that's good right?

Anyway, Hey Fox has indeed updated today.

Today' comic was going to be the first one back, but by request I finished up the pizza joke I'd started before... um... my hiatus.

So the next few might or might not be actually funny, but they will at least be some broad strokes of explanation.

Ok, that's it for now!

Later!

PS

Oh yeah. Happy Birthday Secret!

Halloween Return...

Sat, 31 Oct 2009 17:04:24 GMT

Hey all!

So I've been sorta depressed lately and having a real hard time getting back into funny mode for the comic...

That being said, I'm going to try to just bore through this.

So here goes. Hey Fox has indeed updated!

And today's is indeed a Halloween party, though nobody came in costume this year. Still looks like fun huh?

Upcoming comics will cover (sort of) what's been going on lately...

Much love!

Fox

Couple of months gone...

Thu, 17 Sep 2009 21:22:29 GMT

Um... Hi.

Hello?

Is this thing on?

Well... If there's still anybody out there looking at this, y'all might want to know that there was actually a new Hey Fox comic posted on Tuesday.

This one finally brings in my buddy Paul... um... Pwyll. :: grin ::

He did not, as he had lamented, have to die before making it into the comic.

Sorry I haven't been around much these past couple months. Between either not enough or too much work, and bouts of relationship related depression I just haven't either been in a mood or had the time to work on the comic. I've got a couple already done and a couple more ready to start so at least there should be a comic a week for a little while to come.

Thanks for sticking with,

Much love

Fox

short and sweet.

Wed, 01 Jul 2009 23:36:46 GMT

Hey Fox updated.

it's here.

That comic thing.

Tue, 09 Jun 2009 19:40:13 GMT

Hey all!

Yeah yeah. Just the usual Hey Fox has updated post.

There's not a whole lot of funny to today's comic. I think the last two panels turned out rather well... I've never really tried to drawing intertwined paws before, which was predictably difficult... On the flip side I think the sense of eros came across better than I would have predicted.

Much love all!

Fox

Been a while...

Tue, 26 May 2009 18:55:23 GMT

But hey, I'm back!

And so is Hey Fox.

This particular comic took WAY too long. Not because of any particular complexity (though I really like Fox's pose in the first panel for some reason) but rather because of Alexandra. I realized, after drawing most of the comic, that I hadn't actually pinned down her character design yet... x.x

Anyway, she's a mink, and you can expect some shifting of her design as I get more comfortable with it, but hey if you're here it's not because you're addicted to consistency.

Next week's comic is already done. Yay!

Fox

Birthday up coming...

Fri, 01 May 2009 17:49:29 GMT

Hey,

Real quick, two things. There's going to be a big joint birthday get together the weekend of my birthday (shared with LB and Cass's graduation) so hold some time to come by.

And for those who've asked for gift ideas, here's an amazon wishlist:

http://www.amazon.com/wishlist/3FOTEB7G53EZL

A little tied down...

Tue, 28 Apr 2009 22:13:12 GMT

Hey!

So another week, another Hey Fox.

I actually really like how this one turned out. Panel 3 was a lot of fun to draw too, and I think the real Secret liked the look too. :: grin ::

Warning, next weeks is going to be a little mopey, but it's supposed to be funny, so when in doubt, take the jest and laugh.

Hell, that's a good idea anywhere. When in doubt, just laugh at it all.

When appropriate.

Or your alone.

Or amongst friends.

that's all.

Fox

Mmm... pea soup.

Wed, 15 Apr 2009 19:25:48 GMT

Hey!

Sorry, totally forgot to post this yesterday. Anyway, Hey Fox has been updated again! ^.^

I thought I liked this one but now I look at it and can't help but think "wow... Fox's head is BIG... and that's not really too funny..." Well, maybe I've just been looking at it too much. It was funny in my head. :: shrug ::

What could that li'll bot have done to get his mistress so pissed?

Fox out!

It can't be...

Tue, 07 Apr 2009 18:57:30 GMT

Hey all!

As one might surmise by there being another post that starts with "hey all" there is indeed another Hey Fox comic posted!

So yeah, I was feeling kind of frustrated by everything being a sex joke, but as today's comic clearly indicates... I got over that and am just doing more sex jokes. >.>

I like how this one turned out for two reasons. First, the expression on Mykies face in panel 3, and second, there are a couple of different layers of joke. Suffice to say, I got lucky on this one. ^.^

Much love!

Fox

April 1'st.

Wed, 01 Apr 2009 17:08:01 GMT

And this one's on Fox...

Yup, new Hey Fox posted today!

No big April Fool's joke on the site today, but some of the girls played on on Fox. But considering last weeks comic, he probably deserved this.

So for those of you in the know, I've been emotionally a bit off lately. I'm glad to say that things have mostly gotten over the worst of it. I'm not all chipper cookies and cream, but at least I'm not down in the dumps anymore.

Much love!

Fox

Messy...

Thu, 26 Mar 2009 03:46:54 GMT

Hey!

So I got ahead of what I figured. Actually made a new Hey Fox and posted it!

Today's comic is... Well I wasn't totally sure I was going to post it. I like the joke, but it's a bit crass (ok, very crass) and makes Fox out to be a total dick... Ah well, whatever it takes for the laughs right?

^.^

Oh, and I don't really know who's buying the pics... Thoughts?

Fox out

Wassup my ni.... er.... vulpine?

Wed, 18 Mar 2009 00:47:38 GMT

Hey!

New Hey Fox posted today!

I totally didn't realize this was going to hit on st. patty's day or I would have... well probably done a drinking joke of some sort...

Anyway, today's comic came from a lot of things... none of them related to the content actually. Pretty much I'd done enough "sex" jokes that I felt like writing another would just be... well too much... Anyway, glad to see Joey return!

More on this later, I'm drinking right now getting in the Irish sprit.

Not that all Irish drink heavily... just the ones' I'm related to. ^.^

Much love,
and a bit too much hard cider

Fox

Woops...

Wed, 04 Mar 2009 20:54:09 GMT

Hey!

Totally forgot to post yesterday. Yup, you guessed it, Hey Fox updated again.

I actually really like how this one turned out. I think the posing worked better than normal. And Mai's pretty cute ne?

And for those of you keeping score, yes Monday's date went well. (Ok, not like the comic posted here but it was a FIRST date.) I'll post later about it in a bit more detail.

Much love,
Fox

The date - update

Wed, 25 Feb 2009 22:14:12 GMT

Well, at least she got back to me. In short: at best "just friends."

Well that blows.

I had high hopes. Still not sure why. Oh well, walk it off, keep going.

Off to a birthday party.

Fox out

Hot stuff!

Tue, 24 Feb 2009 20:23:16 GMT

Hey!

So let's turn the self-pitty mood about a bit. A new Hey Fox is up today!

Funny that my comic scheduling should invert my social these days. :: lol :: Anyway, today's comic is a mix of a number of events, not all with the same people involved... Still thought it was funny, I like how the expression turned out in the last panel, but the proportions across the board are screwy. Well call this a "getting back into the swing of things" comic I guess.

Much love,

Fox

-The date-

Tue, 24 Feb 2009 20:19:46 GMT

Ok ok... So there was more interest expressed than I would have expected so here's the night (and a week) after report.

With a bit of a preface, It's been a week and she hasn't gotten back to me, I'm taking the advice of some friends to not worry about it until 2 weeks have past so hopefully this will be the last you hear for a while. ^.^

So I met her on OKC, we traded messages for a couple of weeks before getting together for the date. As such I already had, I thought, a pretty good idea what to expect.

We met for mexican food at one of my favorite spots, but only after changing destinations because my very favorite apparently went out of business the day before. Anyway, we meet outside the restaurant, and the bad begins. The pictures she has up on OKC do not do her justice, she is significantly (IMHO) more cute than I had expected.

Cut to dinner, I've been looking forward to this date for a week, she's more than I expected, and I'm blabbering like a fool. Everything from random stories to apologies, and whatever happens to stumble through my brain, all with annotated explanations because for some reason I felt the need to turn everything into some sort of significant insight.

After dinner we retire to the Alley for a drink, and I'm doing a little better but still yammering. Wasn't until she made a joke about me being nervous, and I denied it thrice in a sentence, that I realized how nervous I was. Unfortunately by then it was getting late and we had to split.

We parted with a wave and a meh.

This is, of course, in brief.

Now some of you know, I can be a pretty funny guy at times, and I'm usually at least able to draw a smile or two, but I feel like I spent the whole nit stumbling over my own feet (metaphorically). So that's why I've been all bugged about this. I feel like I had a chance to meet somebody really awesome, and i blew it.

Any questions?

Fox out.

Where's the Fox?

Sun, 22 Feb 2009 07:37:13 GMT

Hey all!

I know I kinda poofed there for a couple weeks. Well, if you're looking for it, there will be a new Hey Fox on Tuesday, it's done now. But that's not why I'm here.

So I've had a... mixed couple of weeks. The week before last was really stressful, I've moved to a new position at work, though I'm still covering my old job as well. Now I'm doing graphic layout, on top of that, so now I spend all day at work staring at the Adobe suite, which makes it a bit more difficult to come home and spend another three or five hours putting together a comic. >.> So there's that.

This last week, on the other hand, has been stressful for an entirely different reason. As some of you may know the job I have has odd and highly variable hours, so I'm technically "part time" which means I don't have any health insurance. I haven't for some years. I had what looked like a chip out of the enamel in a tooth, so I finally just buckled down and went to the dentist. Even if it's a cavity, I figured, it's worth a couple hundred dolars to get it fixed now. Well it was a cavity, but it was one of many, nearly a dozen. Over the next couple of months I'm going to be going in for almost $4,000 worth of dental work to get everything back up to spec.

This has killed a lot of my plans, both short and long term. (Not all of them, and some have just been postponed) but yeah, that made for a REAL happy fun-week. All the more so since I started so now I've had my mouth pried and prodded, drilled and filled and am not feeling my best.

To be one hundred percent truthful, I've also been stressing a lot more about this date I had on Monday than i should... but that's another matter and not one anybody out there cares about. ^.^

So more comics next week, and I'll try not to be bitchy again for a long time!

Much love,
and a bit of pain in the fang,
Fox

Remember the phoenix?

Wed, 04 Feb 2009 04:38:19 GMT

Hey!

Yup, Hey Fox has updated again!

Keeping in the line of comics inspired by actual events, today's comic is as well. It's been mentioned before, but Secret can be... a lot of fun to eat with. :: grin ::

I realized, while I was coloring this one, that this is the first time I've drawn Secret since I moved to the all color comics. What do you think of the color scheme?

Fox

Another week, another comic.

Wed, 28 Jan 2009 06:30:33 GMT

Hey, remember me?

Last week, I was lazy. This week... well I'm looking at being a little stressed out so I'm going to try, but I don't know how much I'll be able to draw on my free time. Looks like much of my work is going to be spent in the Adobe suite, so it's not the kind of thing that will be too relaxing at home. ^.^

That being said, Hey Fox has updated!

This one is based on... well a number of real events, all sort of rolled together. It's a lot more wordy than my usual, how does it stand up?

Much love,
Fox

Too nice...

Wed, 14 Jan 2009 05:52:46 GMT

Hey!

Yup, almost like i meant to, Hey Fox updated again!

I think I went a bit overboard on the highlighting on this one. Than again, the background looks like crap, so who's really gonna notice?

I don't think I've ever ACTUALLY been in this particular situation... but that's not to say the potential has not been raised... Still, that doesn't mean I'm TOO nice. Just, a bit more than is wholly self beneficial right? Aw come on... right?

Vexed,
Fox

Ski/snowboard

Thu, 08 Jan 2009 22:49:07 GMT

Hey!

So you guessed it, Hey Fox updated again today!

I like how this one turned out. Apparently blue sky and white snow is the best color background I've come across for my character coloring so far. :: lol :: Anyway, today's comic is... well not part two, but at the very least a counterpoint to the last one.

I put together a little movie, a time lapse of the creation of a comic. Anybody interested in seeing how I produce this crud?

Love y'all!

Fox
