Site Update! – Revised Comic Pages, Upcoming Events, New Stickers!

Posted on June 21, 2023 by Tait

Hey, everyone!

Life has been pretty crazy lately. That’s nothing new, but here’s what is:

Today I’ve started overhauling the Birds of a Feather pages here on the site, replacing the old versions of the comic with the new ones that will be in the upcoming book! Here’s the newest page to be uploaded:

If you need to catch up with the earlier pages you can head over to this page and read from the beginning! If you’d like to follow the Kickstarter campaign to be notified when you can grab a physical copy of the next book please follow this link.

In other news, I recently got these new stickers of my characters Gale and Diana! We met Diana in the first Pacifica book: Finding a Path. She’s a mysterious mountain woman who grew up with Gavin and may have special abilities. Gale and her brother Zephyr are introduced in the beginning of book two: Birds of a Feather. Gale is a jay folk monk who is skilled in aerial martial arts and is initially wary of Gavin.

These new stickers will be available to purchase at local events and during the book two Kickstarter. I do not have a final date set for the campaign yet as the book still needs work before it’s finished, but you’ll hear about it in the news letter and on social media.

Speaking of local events, here’s what I’ve got planned for the upcoming months:

Saturday, July 1st

Arts Alive!
Eureka, CA
6pm-9pm
(Exact location to be determined.)

Sunday, July 2nd

May 2023 Pacifica Update – Redwood Coast Kite Festival

Posted on May 12, 2023 by Tait

Hello, everyone!

Things have been a little hectic lately, but progress on the second Pacifica book, Birds of a Feather, is continuing along and I’m still getting out to shows where I can.

The next show you can catch me at will be the Redwood Coast Kite Festival on May 20-21, 2023 at Halvorsen Park, Eureka, CA 10am-5pm. This is a free public event that will have various activities going on including kite flying, workshops, and an artisan fair. Check out the website linked above for more info.

I have no other shows for May planned, so the next show after that will be the Redwood Acres Flea Market the first Sunday in June and I’m actively looking for other events for June through August so I’ll be sure to fill you in as I confirm appearances. (You can also check the Events page.)

For those of you new to the mailing list, welcome! Be sure to check out the website at www.pacificacomic.com and if you’re on Twitter or Instagram you can follow me there for more images and behind the scenes peeks at the comic. You can read a good chunk of the comics on the site’s Comics page. I’m excited to be sharing the beauty of Humboldt with the world and appreciate all your interest in the project!

If you’re enjoying the comic or my other content please consider visiting Patreon or Ko-fi where you’ll be able to unlock more art and bonuses for as little as $3. The support on those platforms helps me make more comics!

Thank you to everyone who makes Pacifica possible and I hope to see you all in the next update! Until then have a great day.

March Pacifica Update

Posted on March 1, 2023 by Tait

Hello, everyone!

Welcome to the March update. I took a short holiday hiatus to catch up on some work and organize myself for the new year, but now I’m back! What’s in the cards for Pacifica in 2023?

Exclusive Content!

I’m going to be posting new content to Patreon and Ko-fi weekly, so if you want to get some exclusive content check out either of those sites. I’ve built up an archive of images, behind the scenes info, and lore about the world of Pacifica. I also share some of my photography that I use as reference for my art. Additionally, you’ll be able to interact with me on Patreon, Ko-fi, or Discord. I’ll give you the latest news about the comic and hang out to chat about interesting topics or answer your questions. Links below!

Book Two Kickstarter!

The next big thing for Pacifica will be the Kickstarter for the next book in the series: Birds of a Feather. I’ve had time to continue working on the book and improve it. There will be some awesome new rewards available including comics from other great creators! Look for the pre-launch page later this month. The new and improved book will be in your hands by June of this year.

Local Events!

If you’d like to catch me in person and get some signed merch you’ll be able to catch me at the Redwood Acres Flea Market most months. I’m also going to be attending other local events. Arts Alive Eureka, Friday Night Markets, and Fortuna Auto Expo are just a few of the events I’m planning to attend in 2023. Stay tuned to get information about those appearances. If you know of any events in Humboldt you’d like to see me at be sure to let me know.

If you don’t want to wait for Pacifica books check out our Store page.

Thank you once again for taking an interest in my work! I’ll see you in the next update.

November News Update

Posted on November 8, 2022 by Tait

Hello, everyone.

It’s been a while, so there are a couple things to catch up on.

First, the Kickstarter for Birds of a Feather finished unsuccessfully, but this is just a minor setback. I’m going to use this extra time to add some extra polish to the book and really make it fantastic. There will be a redo campaign early next year, probably in April or May. I’ll talk about that more as we get closer to that date.

Secondly, I’ve been trying to do a local meet up of comic creators. We’re going to try a later meeting time this month for those that work a 9-5. If you’re in Humboldt County, CA, come hang out with local comic artists and chill. Everyone welcome. Time and date below:

Wednesday, November 16th, 6pm-8pm. Humboldt County Library 1313 3rd Street, Eureka, CA

That’s it for today. Thank you to everyone who has been supporting the comic! I’ll talk to you next time.
