Did you all forget that Nolte’s office has a curtained day-bed? I sure didn’t, and I’ve been waiting to use it this whole damn time.
I’ve spent most of this week cranking away on production work for Volume 2 – adding art around the edges of pages that are too closely-trimmed, resizing things, tweaking little art errors that have been driving me nuts for years, editing page notes and dropping them into the layout. It’s finally starting to feel like an actual book!
In the event that you missed it, the January podcast went up for everybody on the Patreon at $10+ this past Sunday. I talked about characters creating plot deviations, wigs, and some more specific book production notes.
And, in UTTERLY DELIGHTFUL news, “To Be or Not to Be,” the surreally silly choose-your-own-adventure version of Hamlet by Ryan North that includes multiple endings Shakespeare never got around (some of which involve dinosaurs) and dozens of illustrations by artists including yours truly, has now been turned into a playable text-adventure game! As one reviewer notes, “If you enjoy Shakespeare, this is great. If you don’t enjoy Shakespeare, you can go on a revenge fueled vigilantism spree as a ghost exploding people from inside.“
Is that glass historically accurate? I’m not saying it isn’t, I’m just curious
Yes, glass tumblers like that one were pretty common! I’m not modeling it off of any particular piece of museum glassware, though, so it’s possible that the particular pattern and base style weren’t actually made at the time.
Ah, I’m glad to see the mud on his gaiters. I was thinking that they looked too pristine on the previous page.
(yes I am a costuming dweeb what of it)
I almost put tiny mud splatters on his gaiters in the previous page and then stopped myself because I wanted to go to bed before 2am. ;D
