02-11-04 Added Issue #14 of FI, and one Fantasy character bio pic
4-28-04 Update: The new First Impressions site is now up!! Yay!! ^_^ Check
it out here: http://firstimpressions.keenspace.com! Check there for FI-related news. And
keep it tuned here for other art from me and new news!
4-8-04 Update: Thanks to those of you who've stuck around even
through the lack of updates. I've got good news and bad news. Good news first:
First Impressions is now being hosted on Keenspace, so from now on it'll have its
very own site, complete with gallery, downloads, fanart (yes, I actually have recieved
fanart), profiles, etc., which I'm building now. You can find the backissues on a barebones site now at: http://firstimpressions.keenspace.com
Now for the bad news. I promised to upload a first-anniversary special for FI next week and I
fully intended to do so. But certain things happened and let's just say I no longer have
a scanner. That issue (plus several others) are ready and waiting and as soon as I figure out some way to get them up, I will. I may have to get creative, but I will try to get it
up, even if it's late. Well, that's all for now. Keep checking back! -- Rachel
3-27-04 Update: It's been one heckuva month. We're back from
the hospital now (for a two week breather) before we go back. Life is settling
into somewhat of a rhythm again. I have decided not to abandon First Impressions
or to keep it on an extended hiatus. I'm gonna bring it back with a first-anniversary
special in mid-April, so stay tuned! Thanks to all of you for your kind words
and prayers -- they are really appreciated. See you in about three weeks... -- Rachel
2-22-04 Update: My mom's been diagnosed with acute myeloid
leukemia. Things are tough right now and I obviously can't keep up the comic,
so it's officially going on hiatus. I'm not drawing much either, so there
won't be any updates for awhile. I'll periodically post an update as to what's
going on, but besides that, I'll be gone for awhile. Please keep praying,
and I hope I'll be back soon. -- Rachel
2-18-04 Note from the Author: I won't be updating the
site for awhile. There's a family emergency going on right now and I
really can't do the manga or any art for at least a little while. I
hope you all understand, please pray, and hopefully I'll be back
soon. -- Rachel
Konnichiwa! Welcome to Ame no Melody v3.0!
Ame no Melody is my personal art gallery, but it is also now the
home of the web manga, First Impressions. Check back often for
new issues of First Impressions and new art from me!
I'm in the process of inking all the backissues
of First Impressions. The majority of them are already up, and the
others will be following soon. Also new issues will be on their way
as soon as I can get to them.
I've added several new sections to the site,
including the Forum, Downloads, and Character Bios sections. The Forum
features a Guestbook, polls, and a form where you can email me! The
Downloads section has AIM buddy icons, and will also have Wallpapers
and other cool downloads. The Character Bios page will spotlight each
character and their story, giving stats and backgrounds. So don't
forget to check out all the new sections!
And, of course, in the CG and Sketches sections,
I'll talk a little about each piece of art. I could really use your
comments, critisims, and questions! So don't hesitate to
Contact Me!
Enjoy the site, and don't forget to tell me
what you think!
