Next: Air -39-

This week features a nice money shot of the Castores, West’s entry in the All Daedalus Summarize Plot Competition, and oh yeah the very anticlimactic results of the operation.

As I mentioned in a Thursday blog post, the chapter is done. The remaining pages will be posted on Sundays through the end of November, and at some point in the next few weeks there’ll be a new version of the website. After finishing required CG, unrequired bonus CG, and the last three pages of the chapter this past week I started work on website version thirteen on Friday, and started on CSS yesterday. The new site is being developed at home and is shaping up nicely. My brain is lasered in on it at the moment, so I’m slipping in the fact that I need to post this weeks page and ink a commission into the transitional space between the afternoon walk and the scheduled work session.

I’m not keen on how Ornix turned out in panel four, though I’m fine with the rest of the page. Raven turned out better than usual and Ornix looks great on the next page, so tune in next week to see that!

Also next week: PLOT!
