Or in my case... several... my grays and blues and greens have taken a serious beating, and it's gonna be hard to complete the shading on the page without them...! I'll be attempting to make a run to the store to replace them over the weekend, or maybe i'll buckle and order on amazon... We'll see. Apparently Amazon is trying to be THE retailer for prismacolors, and I'd much rather support my local stores and save time/shipping cost.

This makes me wonder, though. Maybe I should set up a Ko-Fi goal to buy a few sets of grays? Stock up, keep things running smoothly. I'll be moving out by year's end, and I'll pretty much have no disposable income once that happens. I've considered Patreon, but its important to me that Vie remains free to read and that I can have the flexibility to delay pages as I try to learn my limits as a comicker. If I were receiving payments via patreon, I'd be a lot more pressured to keep up pace and offer rewards, which I dont want to do until I feel I can trust myself to deliver.

Of course I would prefer to keep Vie primarily in the realms of traditional art as well, but digital would be cheaper and a bit easier to do, so that is another option...

There still will be a page complete as soon as I can manage; coloring is about 80 percent done. But to prevent this from happening again, I'd appreciate feedback on methods to continue production! Thanks for reading, and I hope you guys are liking it <3
