As most of you will have figured out by now, the secret files were the new versions of the Katara pics in book 1. Like we said before, the need to stay in synch for book 2 while still wanting to spend my time useful, made improving files for book 1 the logical choice.
When asking for criticism we often heard people say the art in book 2 was noticeably better than book 1. The loss of code/story which causing our delay presented us with the opportunity to update the art in book 1 and that's pretty much why I've been acting like a recluse during my weekends :) sorry friends&family!
Pretty much all of the art for Katara has been changed. Some of it a lot and some of it a little, but we hope you'll find the new art to be an improvement. I'll add a few side by side files so you can do an easy comparison, mostly for the $2 tier crowd who are still waiting until they can have a go at it!
I'm currently busy drawing a scene involving Azula which will mark a turning point in this book. It's almost finished and I'm looking forward to see how the writer/coder will breathe life into it.
Lastly, Rei has also been receiving some of my attention because.....becoming a general should give you nice perks ;)
We've been reading a few comments in which people are wondering what our plans are for the next patron build or more precisely, when that will be. At the end of this month, halfway of the next or at the end of the next month? Well... we don't know yet.
If by some sort of miracle we can create enough new stuff to put into a new build before the end of this month we will, but let's be honest, that's not very likely. Returning to our original timeplan and waiting until the end of next month feels a bit too long. After having a few hectic weeks behind us the opportunity to have a bit more time and add some more stuff into a next build does sound very enticing though.
We're going to think it over for a bit and will let you know as soon as we have decided. If you feel strongly about us doing it one way or the other, let us know!
