This page turned out to be much more challenging than I expected, and I had to redo the storyboard several times. But overall, I really feel like it came together well, and I’m genuinely happy with the result. There will still be some additional adjustments later on, mostly involving extra dynamics and motion.
I’ve also already worked on the text, so once the final panel is finished, there won’t be any delay with the release. During this short period, I also managed to work on the other pages, so when page 10 releases, all PDF versions will be available immediately, both SFW and NSFW.
Overall, I think there are only about 2 or 3 pages left until the end of the first chapter, and the finale of chapter one is shaping up to be really intriguing.
Another small delay is connected to the fact that I’m currently making sketches for page 11. It will feature a completely new location, and I need to fully develop everything in advance. It takes a huge amount of time and work, so right now I’m spending most of my free time on preparation.
P.S. This time, to save some time, I decided not to fully draw the background for one of the panels since most of it would have been cropped out anyway. But as soon as I can set aside some free time, I’ll finish that part of the background and publish the updated version together with the release of page 10.
