Toil and Progress and Nico (Patreon)

Well, device problems persist. Nico is patron art, but also an attempt to reacclimate to my old tablet. It's hanging in there, but my laptop  - henceforth known as The Crashtop - isn't having it with large comic files. (Some of you who attend my streams might recall that this is the reason I bought a Wacom Mobilestudio to begin with).
Thanks to one of the animators on the project, though, I have found someone willing to sell me their refurbished Mobilestudio to get me back to roughly where I was. It seems like the best/most affordable solution at this juncture, so that's the plan.

Other things in the mix here:

- Serafine's character sheet in progress. Her expressions are some of my favorite to draw.

- The combined character sheet for the band (Zib will have his own separate sheet). Final art by Kasette!

- A selection of notes from the last round of storyboard revisions. Since the storyboard artists have turned in their work, Fable and I have now had at least 3 all-nighter meetings via Discord in which we shoot these visual notes back and forth to fix/edit/streamline/improve the boards as a whole. Fable has pulled several other late nights in the past two weeks implementing these changes. We just presented the second draft to the rest of the crew this weekend. There's still some refining to do, but It seemed to go over well! After that, the sound will be mixed in to create an animatic version of what the final film will look like, and animators will get their assignments. 

- Some of the background art for Act 1- the combined efforts of the amazing Frog and Newt. (The characters overlaying the scenes are from the storyboards and don't represent final art.)
