Well, now we begin the last thrust towards the end of the first volume. Page 144 depicts the bridge of the Resilient as they begin their systems checks for takeoff. Rest assured, this will be quite the visual show.

Other than that, nothing new to speak of – nine more pages to go on the page remake’s digital post production. Then I return to the drawing board to produce the bonus content for the book. :)

[09:58] NKato: Don’t you just love how sometimes, you get a nice chain of mornings where you wake up absolutely, utterly brain dead?
[10:01] Ionen: Yes.
[10:01] Kato: I don’t.
[10:01] Kato: I’m gonna kill the fucker that invented braindead mornings.

An excerpt from AIM. Today, Page 143!

Enjoy.

Well, not particularly satisfied with this, but then again I’m not the most fantastic of dialog writers in the world. :P

To make up for this particularly slow page, I’ve got a couple of treats for you two to look at. The first is a panel preview from the remake of Chapter 2 that features the old “red light” district in Windy Vale. It’s still somewhat provocative, but it’s been scaled down. The “advertisement” on the left in the image was what took me all day to finish as an illustration yesterday. (Not happy with that kind of progression, btw.)

Here’s the fullsize image of the advert image that is actually from a concept sketch – excessively horny otaku, beware: Proceed at your own risk, lest ye find your testes imploding.

Enjoy your weekend.
