19 October 2008:
I experimented with doing the borders and lettering in Photoshop, to make it easier to make changes later. I don't like it as much as hand lettering, and am finding it hard to do the lettering digitally. Maybe it just takes practice. Back to handlettering.
I've been recovering for a very long time while you've all been waiting. Now it's time for a reward (or punishment, we'll see how it goes). Last year, I completed (mostly, sort of, with residual dazed commentary) the end of a chapter during 24-Hour Comics Day, though things got a little bizarre toward the end. Here are the posts as they went online during this year's attempt:
24 Hour Comics Day, hours 2-4: At this rate, I don't think I'm going to get very far today. Pencil preview of the next installment.
24 Hour Comics Day, hours 5 & 6: Pencil preview of this installment.
24 Hour Comics Day, hours 7 & 8: Pencil preview of installment #4.
24 Hour Comics Day, hours 9 & 10: Pencil preview of installment #5. Not for the kiddies. Not terrifyingly adult, either, but, well.
24 Hour Comics Day, hours 11-14-ish: Pencil preview of installment #6. I don't have the stamina I had last year, alas. So, I might not make it to 24 posts, but maybe I can get to 10 pencils.
24 Hour Comics Day, hour something or other: Oookay... I've drawn most of the next one, but I think it's time for me to admit defeat at 6-1/2 strips. Not spectacular compared to last year, but not entirely bad, I suppose, considering the past coupla months. I need some sleep. Thanks for tuning in. If I wake up before the end of the 24 hours tomorrow morning, I'll finish the pencils for #7 :)
