Back in the olden days of 2008, I was among the swarm of graduating teenagers who where eager to set out into the world and yada yada blah. I was fresh from school and had 6 months until I started college. It was fitting to go out and get a job, and by pure accident I was accepted to Disney Land where I was stationed in Tommorowland, building Lightsabers for kids and convincing them that batteries didn't exist.
The Experience in and of itself was life changing, although I only worked there for upwards of 9 months before certain situations led me to leave the happiest place on earth. During that time however I tried my hardest to create a web comic for myself that would explain or depiect the trial and tribulations of a Lightsaber Salesman, alas it was the exact opposite! It was SOOOO disorganized and random, but it was me in a nutshell. Topics from me at work doing.... work-ey things to situations in school and whatnot, it was more like an autobiographical comic if anything else. Back when making webcomics was COOL, MAN!
The name was just GoldFoxTail, as was my alias, and each person Ive tried to explain the meaning to, develops each time over the years. Gold Fox is a derivative of Silver Fox, a nickname the nurses gave to my father while he worked in the Long Beach Hospital, Gold is also my favorite color (yellow, amber ect...) and the fox is my favorite animal, due to its influences to me as a child (Fox and the Hound, The Court Jester, Milo & Otis ect...) In high school I wore alot of Fox Rider Co. brand clothes because I love motorcycles and the like, and the jacket I wore most often was a bright yellow Fox Rider hood-tee, which is featured in almost every picture I draw of myself. Its a persona that sort of developed and stuck, but I've come away from the yearning of an alias or nickname. I am me, in my name. But my name is as featured, GoldFoxTail.
I wanted the comic itself to be a daily Autobiographical comic that I wanted to update everyday, but I am no good at updating my internet things though, and in two years I only posted 15 of them, the last of which took place recently. I have no further plans to seriously take on the series again, but what with all the free time I'll be having recently, It's not such a bad idea. Time will tell. I cant compete with all the other webcomic artists anyway, I have neither the drive nor the commitment to put myself out there like that, and so was GFT15 (which is actually 14, because the 12th was made without the comic top).
Good times.....
