The Dualist : Zoo up, Reentry done.

posted 2009.05.02 at 20:21

Zoo is up. Five pages. One new shot, one shot replacement, and a bunch of tweaks and adjustments. Five pages feels like a sneeze after the 29 page slog that preceded Zoo, though it's a sneeze that's been bogged down with its own issues. A family visit (yay!), sleep problems sapping the hell out of my energy and creativity (boo!), and some freelance work - also slowed by the aforementioned. And the rescript went through a couple of revisions. The whole thing is finally at a point where I consider it a resounding improvement over the previous revision, so. Up it goes!

It'll be at least a couple of weeks before anything related to Chapter Four shows up. The next item on the to-do list will probably be the cover re-implementaitons I've been thinking on for the past few months, followed by TD2EC4 pre-prep, then actual production. Chapter four is a far stickier mess than chapter three was - I'll be adding some pages, redoing a scene, redrawing a couple of panels, jinking some page comps, and (again) re-rendering the Daedalus. A broader variety of re-work than this chapter, and probably more time consuming.

I'll be 30 in about six weeks. If I'm not well into the next chapter by then, I hope to at least be started on it.
