 Another page done and it's the end of the track more or less. I have to transition to him waking up and the actual finished piece being painted on the wall which leads into the next track. And next track is going to be a lot more detailed so won't go as quickly. Glad I could make some progress early on. More than half way done but there's still a lot to go.

 I took that five minute self portrait I did awhile back, vectorized it and added some color. I think it came out pretty well, all things considered. Five minutes is no time at all. Wish there had been at least a chair. Maybe next time.


 Got this done this morning, mostly because I had drawn and inked the figure a couple days ago. That being said, I realized I had misnumbered the last few pages which is annoying. I thought this was 225 when it's actually 229. I really should go back and renumber all the files from the previous six pages but I'm not going to. Their folders are numbered correctly. This WILL come back to bite me in the ass, but I don't care. As long as I know what order they go in, I should be fine.

And the next three pages. Almost done with this track, though it will get a little more complex in a page or two as Silas 'wakes up' and we have to see the actual product of his dream planning. There is some lyrical editing as I go along. And sometimes I even think of ditching songs. So far, I've only added. Somewhere, I made a list of who's supposed to be singing what song. While the next one is Silas again, the one after isn't and I can't remember who is supposed to be on stage. That's what happens when it takes you 8 years to get this far.

Fastest six pages ever. Ok, sure, it's because I use the same elements, a simple background, few details and limited palette but hey, it's six pages! And I think it does exactly what I wanted it to do, flows well, etc. Dreams are like that. I think. Anyway, up to page 225 and only one verse in the track to go.

All good plans...while I was in Boston, I hoped to shoot some footage of the routes I used to walk to school. But I got sick and shot nothing. I'll be back in July so will have to wait til then. I've felt shitty most of the week and had to fly back in a snow story (and we have another one coming tomorrow) but tonight, I did manage to get three pages done, most least of which because I got to use the same figure for all three. This is a dream sequence so things are meant to be hazy, fuzzy at the edges. And the fading of Silas is him  coming in and out of sleep. So, a week off, then some progress. That's how it goes.

 Possibly the quickest made page of the whole comic. The dream sequence is making things easier, which I need. Progress has been slow, but there's been portraits and stuff in here, too. For now, I'll take the ease when I can get it.
