The 2021 transition has been rough for various reasons. Regardless, despite the circumstances, I was able to accomplish more than expected.
January Summary My goal this month was to complete all 28 pages of chapter 3. I knew that the transition period this month was going to be difficult, but I wasn't able to predict the extent of the whirlwind and unexpected situations that would occur. Consequently, I wasn't able to achieve the goal. I had pushed back my goal to at least complete the base colours, but that didn't end up happening. However, considering the circumstances, it was a wonder I was able to complete the lineart this month at all - which is still a major achievement compared to the previous two chapters.
On the bright side, in place of the webcomic goals, I was able to complete so much more illustrations in this one month than I did last year! Can you believe I completed these illustrations each week of the month? (The last week was focused on trying to actually finish my comic goals).
I think one thing that I am definitely improving on is the speed in which I am able to complete my illustrations! In the past, these kinds of things would take me months. I feel like I can attribute this speed skill increase in illustrations to the skills I had to build for my webcomic! Hopefully I will be able to improve in my anatomy and perspectives this way as well!
On a side note, even though I wasn't able to accomplish the webcomic goal, I am halfway on the way there to accomplishing my annual illustration goals of at least 4 OC illustrations in a year! The third illustration is already on it's way ... can you guess who it is...? 👀 Yes, it's the final edition to my witch's crew! Once this illustration is complete, so will the landing page for my webcomic ♥ How exciting! Hopefully I will be able to keep up these illustrations for the rest of the year! I mean, it would be nice to see more than 4 OC illustrations! I only set that goal because last year I only managed to complete 3...
February Goals This month, seeing C3 completed is a no brainer. At the very least, it should be completed in the first two weeks. Following this, for the final two weeks, is to have at least the lineart for C4 completed in its entirety. Hopefully I can check in mid-month to see how I've been progressing!
Even if I am unable to consistently create one chapter in a month, if I can keep up a steady pace on my webcomic, I may still be well ready to release it mid this year with a whopping 1 year backlog instead of waiting till the end of the year! I'll keep working hard to make it a reality! Until then, ciao!
