Hey there folks!

Good news, bad news. Good news is that my hands are better than they’ve been in a while. Between the slower drawing pace I’ve set for myself, better ergonomics of my setup and a new exercise routine I am feeling good about the future. I still have to take it easy, maybe for a long time, but I can actually work again.

Another good news is that I started coloring the unfinished Alfie pages for chapter 18. I want to do the epilogue in color (mostly… You’ll see), and I need to finish chapter 18 if that’s the case. Can’t have a half finished chapter being followed by a fully colored one. It would look like ass. So I am focusing on that for now. I did six pages so far. Here’s the first new colored page. I’ll be uploading them as they’re ready from now on, without an announcement.

Now’s the bad news: the epilogue is gonna have to be delayed. For a couple of reasons:
1. I need time to color the rest of chapter 18. I still have a dozen pages left and I can color maybe one a day, if that.
2. The script for the epilogue took me way longer to write than I expected. I sort of forgot how to write proper comic scripts. I’ve been writing a lot of prose lately. You can read some of my smutty short stories here if you’re interested :D
3. Even when I am at my best, I am still slower than before… It’s gonna take time before I build up enough epilogue pages in the backlog that I feel comfortable uploading the first ones.

I am not sure when it’s going to be ready. I am hoping next month, but I am not sure. I don’t want to rush it, at the finish line. Slow and steady and all that.

I hope that you’re all having a good one!
