Title: AXE13

description: a webcomic of a group of rebels trying to overthrow the current king. Very manga-ish, as it has alot of influence on my art. Lots of action to come, none so far. There is romance involved, but it is not the focus of my comic. Also, it has a bit of boyxboy suggestive material...so if that disturbs you, be forewarned.
I usually update daily, sometimes several pages a day, but recently I've been swamped with SAT's and college applications, so my schedule is a bit off, hehe.

I plan on making this a long-term project, so much of the king-overthrowing is not revealed even though I have 50-some-odd pages posted. I'm planning on hosting the webcomic...but if things turn out well, I'm also thinking of opening an online store with some AXE13 merchandise. Actually, I'm hoping to open one. I'll also be posting tutorials and other such aides to those that might find it useful.

There are a few pages that still need updating. i.e. the gallery section isn't even up yet, and the character page is empty.
An important note: Alot of the earlier comic pages don't hold much content, mainly the backgrounds. Although I am improving in the recent pages, I don't intend on going back to fix those pages for the webcomic. Only when I print.

I've been involved in all kinds of art for a while, but have been serious about it only recently. Well, serious enough to have a stab at it as a possible future job (extra cash). AXE13 has been my pet project for a while, something to just entertain myself, but I find myself striving for more than to just kill time. So, I'm hoping that xepher.net will be a great vehicle in helping me make this into something great that not just I can enjoy but everyone else too~!

Ooh, a very nice site. I love the headers for each page, which is why I can't wait for you to get up the gallery. Your style is nice; manga-influenced but unique and not a cheap ripoff. Respect, yo.
The story's fun and easy to read. I can tell you're going to go places with it, too, and I can't wait until it really gets rolling/you start updating again. Hehe, it sounds like you're taking it in the same direction as I am with mine, as in you want to make it more than just a side hobby or something to crap out every day. That's gooood. <3 (Also, you wouldn't fix old pages unless you printed, which is another one of my mottos. :O Very good. People don't like complete startovers/re-edits in general, anyway.)

And I can see why you'd want to move from Comic Genesis. Guh. I've heard bad things about them lately. Or at least, not-very-good things.

I am totally going to stalk through your DA gallery now, 'cause I can't get enough of that style. Hehehe. (Also, I'd ask for a link exchange if my site currently existed... XD;;; Maybe when it gets back up.)

Good luck!!

I rather like it ^_^ The pacing might be a little slow, but it's good to exaplain the story thoroughly before you start the action. I'm thinking at least it's not another cliched manga beginning, that starts with a highschool student or a death :lol:

 It's still going to be a while before I can decide if your story is good or not. but meanwhile, good luck with the application!

I'm still alive, and I'm still very interested in signing up for xepher...
it's just my site is on hiatus right now and I didn't think I should put up the "cheat" word until i dropped the hiatus...
well, shouldn't be too long now, finals are almost over XD
