I want to thank you for your support. I will let you all know what happens next.
Hi Cats,
Got some bad news. I have a bit of vision loss in my right eye, so went to the eye doctor today. I have edema or swelling of the optic nerve. I’m scheduled for an MRI tomorrow to rule out a tumor. The vision loss was sudden as it happened Friday. Needless to say COTC will be going on a hiatus. I had a nice buffer that got chewed up with my involvement in other projects. I’m very sorry about that. Anyway, I’ll keep you all posted. Thanks for all your support.
Take care,
Jamie

Anyway, I'm still sick w/ the stomach flu, but hey, this was important. ;)
This is Apocalypse. Again, costume colors are probably off and I only did the colors.
This is Part One of an interview I did for Broken Frontier. Part Two comes up Friday.
