Whoops! Seems I forgot to post an update last Friday. So this is a double-update post.
As this workweek closes, I was able to complete up to 68 frames, and made it about 75% of the way through frame 69. The issue is almost done! I just have a few frames and the cover art to complete. Then, it is on to the post-production work such as proofreading, PDF making, website updating.
Release coming soon!
I made very good progress this week, completing 11 frames (frame 59) and got halfway through the 12th one. All this work despite some technical issues (internet provider), personal errands, rewriting some of the script, and other delays. We're getting closer to the home stretch! Hang in there!
I was only able to get 8 frames done this week. Lots of other stuff took up time — Patreon art, computer issues, some moving-in delays, losing internet and subsequent calls to the cable company, etc. etc. But, with frame 48 done, we are now past the two-thirds milestone!
Well, I'm moved in and my studio has been set-up! (House-wise, there is still a lot of boxes to unpack.) Work on grOw/cinema has been again, and I was able to finish up to frame 40. That means we are at the 56% mark — more than halfway! Whoohoo!
I made great progress this week, completing 14 new frames for Episode XVI, completing up to frame 26! This is fantastic, as I had at least one half-day that I need to focus on some pre-move preparations, made some extra Patreon content, and still was able to get this many frames done. The issue is now 37% done!
I will be doing as much as I can early next week, before shutting down (April 14th) for about a week while I move. I should be back up and running by about April 21-22. After 2 years renting in our new home state, we are finally moving into our permanent home next week.
It was a good week for the production of the next Episode of grOw/cinema. I was able to build out the two 3D backgrounds needed for this issue in Shade3D on Monday and half of Tuesday. Then, from mid-Tuesday to Friday, I was able to create the first 12 frames of the issue.

I hope everyone is taking care and doing their best to stay healthy in the strange new world we find ourselves in. Me? It's nearly the same-ol'-same-ol' as I've worked exclusively from home for... oh... the past 12 years.
Next month, I am moving. (Wait? Didn't you just move 2 years ago, BA?!) Yes, I had. But that was into a rental while we became familiar with our new area/state and took the time to scout out the location of our final relocation. That relocation will take place sometime between April 13-20. I will probably be offline for a few days to a week, as I breakdown and re-set-up my studio in the new place.
But don't worry. I've already finished most of April's Patreon art. Patreon has a wonderful "schedule" post feature (as most blog-like interfaces have) that I can schedule posts ahead of time, and have them go live even if I am not internet-connected.
As for grOw/cinema, Episode XVI, I have completed the initial script, and have nearly finished the storyboarding for the full issue (completed 68 of 70 panels as of today). Next week, I will begin the actual artwork (after some 3D model building to complete the new setting in which this issue will take place).
