Step by step - closer to closing...

Hellish week, part two: the nightmare continues.

That should be the title of a horror movie, not yet another week out of my life. Though, it seems to be brightening on the horizon and I actually got a few hours for myself and for My Mayfly. Which eventually led to creating a few more pages. And bringing chapter 3 a step further on the road to the end. 


And, to make the wait for chapter 3 more bearable, here's another extra:

I know it's not much -- but it's a proof we're still alive and actually doing something... Till next time, everyone!

comic progress and character design evolution

As usual, the work can kill the creative bug -- with a big can of Raid, I believe.

For the past two weeks I was doing commissions, fixing stuff for other people (who claim they are graphic designers and even get paid for that -- yeah, right.) and trying to catch a tiny bit of sunlight (the room with my PC is, unfortunatelly, situated on the shadowy part of the building...

The state I developped bounced happily on the verge of depression, exhaustion and -- eventually -- deep and bitter frustration.

It's not over, mind you. I had to take a day break from work, or else...

Now, for the crucial part - more and more pages are being put up together, but i won't update until i have the whole chapter ready. Chapter Three is one of the most important chapters, as the choices the characters make in it drop shadow on their future lives. Thus, i don't want you to experience this chapter in a jaggy way -- rather as a whole.

For a treat and extra material, that is a character design of a lady who's going to show up pretty soon --

See here )

I'm going back to work... Wish me luck, I hope to finnish the chapter before September turns into October...

current mood: tired

Still on holidays -- just returned home for a day. I'm beginning to think that I'm more tired on holidays than at home... And I actually have more free time when I'm working! Now, that's ironic. I guess it's like that year after year, but I need to rediscover the fact each year...

As I think about My mayfly in terms of a Tv series;) -- every episode should have a set of stills, showing scenes that will be in the final version.


Worry not, My Mayfly is alive!

The progress so far...

Today i realized the sad truth: I don't do one page for up to two hours. It actually took me half of the day to do two pages. Oh dear.

I need to get a faster computer. Or stop listening to WinAmp while working...

Good news: chapter two is growing. I don't think it'll be more than 30 pages long, but it already has 7. And a cover. Here's another teaser :

And no, Maeve did not change her hair-style permanently: she just ties her hair when at work.
