Hello leaky blobs! This week was great progress wise, and here is my update~
Pages
2 pages reworked
2 pages rendered
2 pages reworked + rendered
4 pages cleaned sketch done
This week we officially reached 36 pages being fully rendered! Amaze!
‼️Spoiler ahead! Don't scroll if you want to be surprised later
When I say that pages were adapted or reworked, what does that mean? It means that comics with some moment from the book that I made in the past and posted on social media(in format that is suitable for swiping on your phone) was being reworked into format suitable for reading as a book. What was great for scrolling on tik tok won't necessarily look great on the sheet of paper if put one by one. Sometimes it's fine but other times I found myself completely reworking the spread.
But what exactly does that mean?
Here is an example from this week, that took me quite a while to figure out:
Thank you for your comments and thumbs up!! I love seeing you guys happy with the progress^^ See you in the next update~
♪ Weekly update. New polaroid! Bookmark finished ♫
Hello dear friends, this week wasn't as productive due to minor health issues, but still managed to make some progress! Let's see what's new we got :)
Pages
2 pages adapted into the book format
2 pages rendered
New polaroid reveal
a 100% real photo of very scary space monsters
Bookmark final design
The bookmark design is finished and I'm pretty happy with the result ^^ Both Rocky and Grace are embroidered, Rocky is two sided as well. Setting up a bulk order now, will share better pictures when I receive them myself!
Hope you like these!! Stay safe and see you next week~
Next week the shipping costs will be charged from your cards! There will be a separate email sent to you with more information about that~ If your card was charged unsuccessfully, there will be time for a second attempt, so no worries~
Hello leaky blobs!! It's been quite a productive week for me and I'm happy to share the progress~
Pages
3 pages rendered (we're not alone)
4 pages adapted (previously made comic frames adapted into the book format)
2 new pages of Concept art sketched
Grace character concept
During work I realised that mayhaps it would be nice to have a concept art page with Grace outfits turnaround so I can be consistent with how I draw him and what he is wearing :) This led me to creating a separate spreadsheet and adding one more costume which is inspired by the movie Grace! I might keep this spread in our book just as a little bonus
Hello leaky blobs, here is my update for last week~
❗️New timeline info
Initial plan was to make 30-40 pages and estimate finishing date was September. Now given that we've raised much more money and ended up with 70+ pages(which is almost two times more) I would need more time to work on them. I've calculated the average amount of pages I'm doing per week and it's usually around 4. So it is physically impossible for me to finish it in September. I will try and speed up, but I also don't want the quality to be affected.
With this info, new deadline for finishing the book would be late October. If it happens earlier - great and I'll let you know! I'm doing my best to make it look neat and fun for all of us <3 I really hope for you understanding and thank you so much for your patience!! <3 Your support is amaze!
Pages weekly update
3 pages from Chapter 6 reworked for better storytelling (1 page added)
3 pages rendered (Chapter 6 We're not alone)
4 pages clean sketch done (Chapter 10 First Contact)
Rocky sticker
Rocky bonus stickers arrived and they are looking great^_^A sticker will go to every physical order.
that's all for the week!! See you in the next update
Hello people of the Earth, hope you had a good week! Here is my weekly progress~
4 new pages rendered (chapter 12. You observe, question?) Starting next week I will try to increase amount to 6 per week!
Bookmark early design
I had this bookmark with a bird that gave me an idea of designing similar concept of Rocky and Grace connected by Petrova line. This is early sketch and I sent it over to the factory to see if it can be done :) I know some of you wanted to see the design earlier to decide whether to get it or not, so I thought to share even if it's still work in progress.
