Surprise!
8 years ago
Along with rewriting the story for A Decaying Realm, I've also been remastering the first 19 pages!
They're still a work in progress; at the time of this journal, the first 8 are finished; 9,10, & 11 still need shading; 12, 16, 17, 18, & 19 still need color and shading; and 13, 14, & 15 (the last traditionally drawn ones) still need to be digitally inked (for lack of a better term), colored, and shaded.
I've been spending a ton of time doing art these last three weeks (instead of schoolwork oops); I hit 18 hours spent on art for each of the first two weeks and passed 20 this last week. And the only regret I have is not working ergonomically the first two weeks (I've fixed that now though!). The comic is on schedule (for the first time EVER), as long as nothing catastrophic happens in the next month.
I also now have a Tapastic, a Tumblr, and a Twitter! I'd recommend going to my Tapastic because I can schedule pages to post, whereas the others (to my knowledge, I'm not very savvy with these sites) I have to upload them manually (I know DA does scheduling, but I don't think I need Core at the moment; Tumblr might too, I haven't investigated it fully yet). The fact that I can schedule pages on Tapastic means that even though the pages may be delayed on the other four sites, they will still go up on time during the weekend of Oct 19-22; I have a research field trip where I likely will not have Internet access, so I'll be digitally dead for that weekend.
So, how is everyone's day going?
