So Today I set out to complete all my Rule 34 Line art... I was driven and motivated.

But alas. The world decided to fuck me today.

While working on the Rule 34 Requests today on stream, I managed to finish 3/5 Line works, with the other 2 pretty far along. Unfortunately I for saw a power outage looming...
In a vain attempt to be pro-active I decided to save my progress, so I wouldn't have to redo the last 10 mins of work, if I lost power.

(Photoshop does auto saves, but will not recover the last 10 mins or so of work in the event of an unexpected shut down)  

I thought the save had completed successfully before the power went.

When power returned I tried to open the Rule 34 file I was working on, sure enough...

File corrupted.

Apparently, the save had not completed in its entirety when I lost power. My Surge protector and Battery, have been giving trouble lately, and so the battery didn't kick on so my computer was shut down completely.   

My attempt to save 10 mins of work resulted in the loss of the entire file.

I have some progress snippets of the Rule 34 content saved, but the entirety of the Hermoine & Ginny Pic is gone (I had just finished that one today)  and virtually all progress on the Nancy Stranger things pic is gone.

The others are mostly salvagable, as there are rough line versions of them saved etc. But those 2 are the 2 I will have to re-do completely by scratch.
Even still though, in order to color and complete the Rule 34 pics, I will have to redraw them all anyway so I have access to the layers.

This is most likely going to affect my delivery on these pics specifically.
I'm taking a breather and trying to zen out, to let go and deal with the loss, and pick back up the pieces and start over.
I don't know how many of you reading this are artists, but it is a lot like dealing with a death/loss. Obviously on a smaller scale, because these aren't people. But yeah.
It feels incredibly shitty to start 5 pieces over from scratch.

TL:DR
Power cut off during a progress save of my Rule 34 pics, which corrupted the file. All Rule 34 pics will need to be re-done. This will cause a major setback in the delivery of the Rule 34 requests for October. I'm really sad, disheartened and upset.
