In case you missed it, I'll be going to PA for two weeks on Tuesday. I'll still be able to get online, but I have no idea for how long or at what times. So I apologize for not commenting on things (not that I have been much as of late. LaF has devoured the majority of my time; my apologies.) Speaking of which, LaF will be in our judges capable hands for then. I'll still be checking on the new refs and submissions but I probably won't be reviewing any of the new competitors myself. It should be fine, both *shootdoctorallen and ~Snowwire have been doing a great job so far. Go show them some love!
I'm really hoping I'll be able to keep up with CC over the two weeks, problem is I have no access to a scanner. So I've been frantically trying to sketch out the four pages ahead of time, and have almost finished sketching the third. But dear god I am not good at working so far in advance. I guess part of my problem is I do a lot of plot modification as I go so that my initial "script" (total air quotes) may be significantly different in the end.
How does everyone else work as far as process go? Do you do a lot of scripting initially, or do you take the "cuss all run headfirst into the wall" approach? Does your script stay pretty intact or get butchered to pieces?
Oh, found a metric cusston of old icons I was supposed to upload ages ago. I'll be submitting some of them shortly, so I apologize for the inbox spam.

I wish you luck in your travels and school-type ventures! <|
Granted, this may not be the best process creatively, as often I'm so sick of the story I don't even want to look at the damn thing, but it gets it done.
So I'm remaking a few of the paper characters but that's being difficult to me. Like an ungrateful child who wants a gallon of ice cream to do anything.
..actually exactly like that. :I
And my ending is being a problem child as well, so some late nights are going to be necessary~
The script, well, first I lay out the basic plotline in my head because I am able to memorize the majority of anything I come up with, since it's some thing I created, and it holds a special place in my heart, so to speak?? (I can remember a few stories from back when I was a wee lass.)
Some of the more exciting things I lay out in ultimate detail, such as panel layout, speed lines, dialogue, all of that, whereas other parts (like the introduction) I keep vague and leave up till it comes that time to sketch it.
Inking is kind of tedious nowadays, I don't really know why; back when I was starting CC, I found love in everything I did, and had fun with everything. Maybe it was just the excitement from entering my first OCT I had a chance of entering?? (I tried out for
When I think of the basic storyline, I stick to it as best as I can, and when I originally plan it out, I cut out any flaws that would make it seem less realistic to the story's original canon and my opponent's canon, and maybe if I run out of time (which I usually do, darn me) I cut out some unneccessary filler points. But if I actually didn't procrastinate, I'd follow it spot-on.
And it's awesome you're heading to Penn! I'd love to go there, whether it be for school or vacation.~
Actually writing, I have no problem with. Revising and editing my own work, however- I am terrible at finding the motivation to do that. So I spend a lot of time crafting sentences so they are acceptable in the first place. Because I work this way, I now write very slowly and especially run into trouble when forced to come up with something in a limited amount of time. My in-class essay scores suffer because of this. What I write is usually coherent- but I don't finish.
I still very much enjoy proofreading for other people; I'm not quite sure what that says about me. Good luck to ye, and have fun in the wonderful land of Pennsylvania.
Also, good luck then! Will be looking forward to your return and in the meantime, progress over here. Progress over here :3
Ahaha, the last page took a few by surprise. The reactions I received were fun; luckily no one was upset by it. Then again, if that sort of thing upset someone they would not have made it passed the auditions.
We hope to see it soon! I believe last I talked to you you had a few ideas for a character yes? Gotten any further with fleshing it out?
