Movin' along ...

Yesterday I got pages 15, 16 and 20 of RC #12 penciled (already finished pages 17-19 this weekend). After I get these inked and toned, I have one more scene to go, probably about 3 pages long, and then this issue is finished! I know it took a ridiculously long time.

I have to switch back to working on Kismet this weekend, though, because next Monday's Kismet update is the last one I have finished. I've run into a major sticking point on the Kismet plot. I mean, it's really a very MINOR sticking point -- I just can't figure out how to draw one building -- but the entire next scene takes place in this building and I can't draw it until I can figure out what the building looks like!

So this weekend I'll be closeted with Kismet and I *will* draw this thing until it looks right!

It's now official -- I'll be in Alaska for the entire month of April, will be back in Illinois briefly to finish packing up, and then will be moving the whole kit n' kaboodle back to Alaska. Egad, soooo many books to pack ...!

So I have to get a huge backlog of Kismet pages finished by the end of March. And somehow do it without the quality suffering. Erk.

Off to work now.

Paper birches are fun to draw ...

I like drawing birches. All forests in the Raven's Children universe will now consist solely of birches and spruce trees. ^_^

Actually ... they kinda seem like they do anyway ...
