It took me a lot longer then I would have liked, but I’m finally halfway done with the artwork for Tonoharu: Part Two! Oh boy!
Not only that, but I’ve also finished up the loose ends for the script & page layout, which had been stalled at about 9/10ths of the way done. So I know the final page count, and know exactly just how much I have left to do. I’ve still got a long way to go yet, but at least I’m over the hump.
If you’re curious, the book will contain 140 pages of comics, making it a whooping 40% longer than the prologue and part one put together.
In the last progress report from way back in December, I promised to show off some artwork for the third progress report, so let’s take a look at that:
I’d like to point out that these are just a fraction of the panels of Dan walking silently with a sullen look on his face*! Catch Tonoharu: Part Two when it comes out in 2025 for all silent sullenness! Awesome!
I’ll post another progress report when I’m 75% done with the artwork, or in a few months, whichever comes first. For that one, I’ll write a bit about the settings that are unique to Part Two, including a few more artwork samples. Stay tuned, Internet!
*Actually, this is pretty much all of them (so far).
