Ok, the headlines, I suppose…
Inked pages this week to date: 19 – pencilled pages this week: 1
To be honest, there’s an hour to go of this week, and I’ve got half a page to go and there’s a chance I’ll get it finished around 12:45-1am, so I’m calling that this week. That’ll bring me up to … 20 – all of it Chapter 5 of Skullduggery Pleasant.
Tomorrow off for the day with my wife, won’t be leaving home til around 11:30 so there’s a chance (a slim one) I’ll get a last page of inks done then, but otherwise it’ll be Tuesday.
Generally 3 pages of inks per day. Frustratingly slow (which is stupid because ask any artist – 3 pages of inks today? brilliant amount of work)
I am starting to feel like my brain needs new nurishment though, maybe one day in a spa will do it (that’s where we’re off to)
If things go according to plan, I should have wrapped up 21 pages of comics in about 13 days. Final chapter still to go, and then on to … we’ll I’ve got some more Leopard of Lime Street and then, fingers crossed, some Dredd.
I’d quite like to get back to some paper and ink for some of what’s coming up, but I suspect I’ll chicken out at the last moment when I can’t make the drawing tools do what I want them to.
TV diet this week, man, I watched a lot of tv. Perks of inking – not a lot of thinking. So I get to watch telly.
On the Beeb, watched Ancient Civilisations (6 part doc though only five parts on tv right now, last part on tuesday)
On netflix, I sporadically watched Lockwood & Co (which is great, but I keep thinking “I’m so old” when I watch it. I feel more sympathy for the old ghosts)
Also watched Girls5Eva. I’m not proud.
Oh, on sky, I watched Midwhich Cuckoos, which was pretty good, I thought. Love me some John Wyndham.
On radio I generally listen to Radcliffe and Maconie on radio 6 (I don’t listen to a lot of radio, and they only do two shows a week so that suits me)
I’ll try posting more art next week. Toodles.
