GC#4, page 27 completed!

Better late than never. I wanted to post this today, so I worked extra late just to finish page 27. An unexpected speed bump over converting Quicktime movies to a smooth FLV Flash file seriously slowed my progress today (anyone know of an easy, and good quality converter for Mac? Adobe's Media Converter was giving me nothing but crap).

ANYWAY... on to the growth! Page 27 represents the HALF WAY mark for this issue! Nine pages down, nine to go! (Plus the cover to issue 3, but I am not counting that at this time.)

Thanks for all the comments on the last 3 posts! Seems the topic of this issue has caught a lot of people's interests. One of these days, it will become a focus for one of the grOw/cOmics. :)

Enjoy the preview!

Yes, they're getting more ambiguous. Looks like you've hidden Jon's Johnson behind a speech bubble there. So excited.

Is that a strategically placed speech bubble, or is he just that happy to see her? Hard to get the scale from the preview, but it looks like the bathroom is getting packed now! I thought there was one more show stall in the back - must be for another issue!

Very cool, I think his girlfriend will be pissed if she catches them though (:

-n01 in particular

PS: Try mencoder (part of the mplayer package), you should be able to download an OSX package for it. Command line options take a little bit to get your head around but google is a big help.

It's looking great. I've been waiting for it for a while now and I can't wait for the other 9 pages.

I wish I could help with the adoby reader thing but I don't really know anything about it sorry

Fantastic to hear you're planning on making a Gr0w comic based solely on GTS.

I've always loved your GTS art and have bought all the Gr0w comics with GTS included. I'm eagerly awaiting your next installment.

Is that a speech bubble in your pocket or are you happy to see me?

@Potato: heh heh -- impatient? ;D I just posted Friday and 2 days later (not counting weekends), you're asking for an update! :) At least I know you like my stuff!

@Anonymous#8 (sorry, all these Anonymous's make it hard to respond specifically) -- "grOwing Concerns" is one possibility. You must have been following me for a long time! :)

@Anonymous#10: I would LOVE to do this full time. :)

@nO1: Thanks! I will have to look into that. For now, I cheated. I uploaded to YouTube, then downloaded the results, both in standard and high-res format. I also used Flash 8 video compressor, which gave much better results (thought it was 10x slower! geez!)
