It's finished!! Hooray!! There's always more to tweak, but if I really want to do that, I can do that over the summer. She needs freckles. He probably needs stubble. William S. Pierce's suit needs stripes! There's always something. But I expect that I will be ready to move on to new projects very soon. Next year, we're supposed to do a 24-page comic. I think that I spent, conservatively, 11 hours per page on this comic. Sadly, the cover only got two hours. But those are the breaks. Next year, I will have to do everything much sooner. One hour per page was spent on each of the following: story development, pencils, colour experiment #1 (failure), inking, colour experiment #2 (success), colour (basic), colour (detail), colour (filters), lettering and bubbles, editing, layout. A second-year told me to start on the new comic as soon as possible. Good call. I think that I will carry on with this story (I already have characters, backstory, premise, basic story arc for the 24-pager) and Agent MacIntosh and F. Scott McMurdo can finish their mission to destroy The Machine. Won't that be nice? I should take the time and label my colour references now so I don't have to start from scratch next year.
