I made this thread so we can keep each other informed about personal stuff that might effect the VS. So,


If you have any personal/RL stuff happening that will effect the VS, post it here rather than creating a new thread or adding it to another post. Thanks!

(I'm just trying to keep the board from becoming too cluttered.)

I'll start:

Well, this term I registered for five college classes... I just hope I didn't bite off more than I can chew... So if I disappear for a week or so, don't panic, I'll be back as soon as I dig my way out from under the mountain of school work. The term just started last week, so things aren't too bad quite yet. Of course, because the summer term is shorter than the spring and fall terms, and they always cram in the same amount of material, I'll just have to see how things play out...

I'm going to leave on June 10 for my mothers first chemotherapy. After that I think It will be like two months, hopefully, before I really start for real with this project. I'll be in touch after next monday and post conceptual art whenever I can.

Hey, sorry I haven't posted lately or with much regularity, I've been busy with classes. I actually had to drop one of my classes because taking five classes in the summer (a short term) was just more than I could handle. The classes aren't that difficult, just very time consuming. The term ends August 3rd, so I have a little over two weeks to finish a considerable amount of work I've let pile up in my online class in addition to the work I normally have in my regular lecture classes. (Since none of the work for the online class is actually due until August 3rd, I had put that class on the back burner while I focused on the other classes... Until now.) I have some experience with the class material so I just have to sit down and do the work. Still, I'll post every chance I get. I hate being busy just when the project is picking up. Oh well.

Some good news though: We have a new artist that I just added to the group, Syrena. She has some very impressive artwork in her deviant art gallery. Here's her sample TS lineart: http://slayersyrena.deviantart.com/gallery/#/d2u5u61

Also, here's a test inking of PrtyWatrPrincess' comic page: http://i30.tinypic.com/2wgdp1v.png I think it came out pretty well! Especially considering it's a test inking! I think that with proper communication and a good production method, we can go far with this project!

@phylogeny:
I'm working on the 2nd pilot edits as much as I can. I saw you introduced some of the characters in the first episode and I'm not sure that's necessary. Or if it is, it could be done more quickly somehow. I'll try to finish up the editing as soon as I can. Sorry it's taking so long. :-\

@everyone: <off topic>
I repaired the inverter board on my LCD monitor the other day! It had five bad capacitors that I had to replace. I actually had to de-solder the faulty capacitors and then solder on the new ones. It's the first time I've ever fixed a circuit board so I'm happy about that and that it worked. (It cost about $7.50 for me to fix it vs $65 to have it fixed at a repair shop.) It makes me want to learn more about building electronics from scratch... Ha! Just what I need: A new interest.

I'\m impressed! I have a rough sketch of page #3 and I need to post it on here but we have yet to hook up our computer and we need to get internet. I have my laptop over at my parents. I have a rough sketch of Griffin but I really think someone else could do a better job he looks pretty rough around the edges.

Really what we need at the moment is concept art and then model sheets, and the concept art doesn't have to be perfect.

Will do! All of it is just rough sketches. Ideas and things.

Cool! I can't wait to see!
