Progress Report - Various
🕑 Added 2021-01-11 10:41:38 +0000 UTCAlright! Bit past time for a progress report. Thankfully, most of it is good so far.
January $20 Wallpapers - These are done save for adding text for the text version, which might take an hour or so at some point. Plus making the various resolution packs, which takes like...10 minutes. I'll likely post them either later today or sometime tomorrow.
January $20 Comic - I've completed 7 renders, bumped up to 1080p instead of the 720p that I used for the Steamworld Comic last month, I just wasn't happy with the final resolution. I suppose I've gotten too spoiled with Chastity Quest being 1080p and Haven's Port actually being 2k. Notably, I think this comic may run slightly longer than the first as well, but progress is solid, so I'm expecting it to be done by the 20th at the latest. Barring a major issue with it or me, of course. This second comic is a sci-fi alternate world, and I stuck two images in the post as a teaser ;-). Neither image is final yes, though. I want to try and give the ship a bit more depth and the Cryo Pod image needs a few minor tweaks.
Haven's Port - So far, I've completed 4 of the scenes for Haven's Port's January Build. That might not SEEM like much, but I only started working on it on roughly the 6th. This was due to needing a lot of upfront render time for the wallpapers, plus needing to do the short story from last month that didn't get finished. And, of course, I took the 1st off pretty much completely (save for the walkthrough) as I desperately needing a small break. In addition, I spent a bit over a day working with a new tool that I hope will actually speed things up, long run.
Anyway, 4 scenes in just over 4 days is actually pretty close to my target speed for the month. So Haven's Port is almost perfectly on schedule. Perhaps just a touch behind as I'm having to re-render one of the scenes 'overnight' today due to some lighting issues.
Galactic Nomad - Soooooooo, this is the only thing that's actually outright behind. I've barely started planning for it, let alone writing. I've just had too much other stuff (for the Patreon, other work I've had to pick up to pay bills, and some ongoing medical issues) going on to get my head in the game for this one. I have a vague idea what I want to do, and I'm hoping to finally get the first words on page later today. But there's no question that I'm behind on this one -_-. I'll try to get on it as I can.
