My chair has been semi broken for a little while now. Not in the terms that I can't use it as a chair, but that the air pressure thing to control the height is fucked, so it's all the way down. That alone isn't too bad, but the cushion is pretty much shot so after a few hours my ass hurts. Considering I bought it a few years ago from some office building that was getting rid of a bunch of them for new chairs, it's not entirely unexpected. I grabbed the one that looked the least fucked up out of some of them, which were missing arm wrests or had bad tears in it.
Anyway, one more page left before the end of the current chapter. Thinking of taking two weeks to work on my art and try to improve it. It's pretty obvious, but the comic I'm more okay with cutting corners in regards to proportions and all that vs. a stand alone art piece. Partly it's because I'm drawing numerous panels and my thought process is "Gotta get this done and out the window" vs. "I gotta make this look the best I can." I'm terrible, I know.
Another issue I feel is that the longer a chapter goes and I don't work on anything more detailed/proportioned/higher quality due to me being too lazy because I had already spent hours on a comic page, my art suffers. Cooper even pointed out something along the lines of how I'm basically unlearning stuff, which is a fucking horrifying thought. I'd rather not have my art degrade.
The next chapter is a direct follow up to this one, so I don't want to wait that long before starting it. However, after the next chapter is finished and this short story arc is finished, I'm thinking of taking a month off from doing comic work and spend each day working specifically on life drawings and studies. I'll post them on here, of course. Along with that, I'm gonna take some time to learn TyranoBuilder and pump out a short visual novel as a test run before I head into doing something longer. Currently thinking of using those sprites I made last year to cut down on time regarding the art and put more time on learning the program itself, but who knows. I might wind up redoing them because I hate them.
