muddling
I suppose i need a button here that simply pastes the stock phrase "well, i didn't get as much done yesterday as i needed to..." it's like a standard ingredient in most of my whining. And as such, yesterday was a bit like that.

I was actually able to get a pretty good handle on the first frame of the ALA poster, at least as far as layout and solid penciling goes. There are three frames in all, stacked on top of each other. I think i'll try to get the backgrounds sketched out this morning for the second two, that way i can work on the characters at some point today. I really want to be able to email a rough layout of the poster to them tomorrow. The trick is gonna be to get a start on tomorrows comic, so that i can get that done, then turn over to the poster project.

One of the most frustrating things for me is that each comic really does suck up an entire day, even when i get to the point i am able to finish early. It's like it wears me out, or the creative part of me, and even if i am done early and have time to work on other things, the energy isnt there. Actually, i don't think that's true, its more of a fact that winding things back up again is just hard after you finished something. Its hard to repress that 'i deserve a break now' feeling you get when you finish something. Thought i had myself trained... bah. :P

Anyways, starting to wander from listinging to the more poppy EBM industrial stuff that is so prevalant on Rant Radio, and finding myself listening to the more somber offerings over at somnabulant corpse radio. It comes from a more thoughtful bent, i think...

ah well, time to look into getting something done. Maybe it's the right mode for what i need to do with todays comic.
