The Last Day of Rain Update: 6th of September 2024
Back in the groove with chapter four!
A version of this post was originally published on the 6th of September 2024, in a private newsletter to my Kickstarter backers. I’m now making all the updates available to the public, so you can see how I create my comic books.
Hi there,
I hope you’re all doing well!
A couple of weeks ago (or was it just one?) I dropped you a message explaining why the fourth chapter was late. In case you didn’t read it, that’s mostly because I have been studying so that I can find a job as an artist in the animation or games industry, and I put too many things on my plate, as people often do. 🥲
But this Wednesday was the end of both the storyboarding and the background design course, and I’m getting back into working on the chapter. I chose these subjects because they were aspects I needed to improve in my comics, too. Hopefully, that will show, even if only in drawing speed!
While there are no new sketches, I’m leaving you with a playlist preview. It will change a bit yet, but you can see from the get-go that it will be considerably cheesy. 🧀
The order of the songs also says something about the plot itself; I’ll leave you with that thought.
See you soon and have a great weekend!
Claudia
