Frame 27 completed for grOw/cinema 2

I was away on vacation from April 14 through the 22nd, which I, unfortunately, forgot to mention here. Upon my return, I had to focus on completing the Patreon commissions and rewards for April, and then I was able to continue with grOw/cinema 2.

So, in addition to all the work for my Patreon page, I completed 4 frame and made major headway on a fifth. I was unable to complete this last frames, as I had hoped, since it had a LOT of detail and is taking longer than expected (there are 6 characters all interacting in this frame).

We are now at the 55% completion mark. I had originally hoped to have a release by mid-May, but I must have been overly ambitious on that timeline. It's looking more like late-May now. I really hope to have a release before SizeCon (June 2-4), but we will see. 

April's Patreon work included:

• 3 new high-res, tightly rendered images
• 4 new high-res watercolor/sketches
• 38 work-in-progress images
• 3 speed process videos
• 7 full-res PSD files
• 2 old sketches
• 3 grOw/cOmic page pencils
• 19 previews of current grOw issue being worked on
• 4 polls (Commission voting)

Frame 23 completed for grOw/cinema 2, Ep. 5

I completed frame 23 (and made great progress on 24) this week, just in time for vacation! Wrapping up Patreon rewards for mid-month as well. When I return to my desk on April 24th, work will continue on both!

Time to take a breather!

grOw/cinema 2, Ep. 5 work begins! Frame 16 completed

In a little over a week, I was able to finish up to frame 16 of the next issue of grOw/cinema 2, "growing to a Crescendo".

During the last few weeks, I've been finalizing the script of this issue (which had been about 70% complete when I sat down to work on the next release). I also worked on the new background (a large variation of a previous background).

This issue will be a streamlined edition — coming in (currently) at 50 pages. It is also the next-to-last episode of this series, building to its huge climax. I hope to complete this issue by the end of May.

The next issue of grOw/cinema 1, "The Ever-Expanding Universe" will follow. I have "goal points" to this next chapter, but I still have to mull over and conceive the journey that happens between the first and last pages.
