Page 84 complete! Hand doing much better.

I completed page 84 this afternoon, but was only able to upload it tonight. The page took a little longer,as it was, again, a complicated one. Some fades, overlapping panels, water effects, and movement blurs. A high impact page indeed!

The hand is doing better. It was actually focused on the topside of my wrist. Part of the cause, I believe, was the new drawing surface I just replaced on my Wacom -- a removable piece of plastic that you draw on. It is removable because it will eventually wear -- along with the plastic tip of the pen. The new surface was much more rubbery than the last. It was very slight, but like a well-known car, as soon as something is "off", you notice it. My tendons seemed to have noticed it, too. The extra "drag" caused by the rubbery surface became a repetitive strain. I have since given my wrist a good 5 days rest (with some work in there, yes). Plus, I have acclimated my drawing style to it, along with breaking in the surface.

On to page 85 tomorrow!
