Okay. Progress is now quite steady.
As it turns out, there are still a few bits of animation that I can pass down to other animators - and I have. Everything I've just passed down to another animator is the very last of the "action" scenes. From this point forward, I'm animating dialogue and simple movement exclusively. The hardest parts of "F" are now behind me. It feels kind of good to say that. But I'm not out of the woods yet - I need to make sure that the character acting is believable and the emotions are conveyed properly. If I can manage at the pace I'm at now, I'll have had a very good January. Maybe not "release in February" good, but we can get damn close.
Progress on the score has been fantastic. Two complete scenes are scored entirely - They are the most pivotal scenes. Now we need to finish the two rising action scenes and the climax. The former will be easy, and the latter will be harder. But I'm really, really liking what we have so far.
Some assets I'm having modeled are taking a little longer than usual, but it's fine since I'm still knee-deep in character animation. After I finish all the dialogue in "F" and "C", I'll have a "complete" draft of the episode, and I'll go over everything with one final pass. Thank you for hanging in with me throughout. As always, your support is appreciated.
