See the tumblr link that has some alternative text of this chapter as well. Oh boy, soooo many iterations went into this chapter. But one reason was me enjoying myself too much. not a good sign if i want to do something that also works from an objective standpoint.
I am surprised at how much the characters changed from that test-drawing. And how much they... oh my god. this is 5 years old. how long am i going to work on this. existential crisis incoming.
Nah. I knew this would be years. But the current pace is a bit slow, yeah... It s the pace i set for myself in a -this-is-managable-stick-to-this schedule. I always hope to be able to do more, but in the end... Just one month on an island with a bunch of podcasts and no internet... that might help. I want to bury myself deep enough in this so i can come out at the other side. I ll never be happy if i dont finish twisted. I start to realize why i am usually one of the last still staking it out alone in a multiplayer game i sank too many hours into. not just sunken cost fallacy, but maybe a bit too much sticking to what i set out to do. ... i wanted to talk about the page. jeez, i should keep minor crisis to myself. but honestly, i am having so much trouble pencilling the next pages, i need to step even further back and get into studies before continuing. other people do that BEFORE they work on their comic. well, other people dont take 12 years to finish it. ... but one thing still feels right: I am happy working on this. better than sinking those said hours into a game. though i miss the other people a lot.
