Well, I have 4 pages digitally inked so far...not too bad for technically one sitting. On top of that, I'm up to page 15 in terms of detailing the rough storyboard sketches so I can effectively ink them later tonight (I'll do more detailing and such with Pt2 since I'll already know I need the panels to be as close to perfect as possible, rather than rough doodles to conceptualize what I want there.)
I've decided the easiest way of going about all of this is to basically just say "fuck it." I'm gonna do the comic based on how I expect the story to go, and if it changes, well, that's too damn bad cuz I'm not waiting anymore. I want to do the comic and I'm not gonna sit around anymore with my thumbs in my ass because James doesn't feel like writing (or, if he has, then because he doesn't feel like sending the drafts to me.) Whatever the case...he hasn't spoken to me (save regarding the Magic Box) since last week, aaaand I don't care anymore. Clearly he's either is too busy to notice what's going on, or he doesn't give enough of a shit to do anything about it anymore. I'm not going out on a limb to get his attention when I post about Limitless almost every day (especially not since LJ is THE ONLY PLACE I POST ANYTHING,) and he almost goes out of his way to ignore - more or less - every single one. Enough of my rambles, side-stories and characters have influenced the story that I can safely call it as much my story as he can (and I've put in loads more effort at this point, too, in terms of money and time invested.) I could easily finish the Book 3 outline in a night or two just to solidify how everything works out. Having it in writing is paramount so I don't forget stuff later down the road. Lord knows I have to reference stuff in the current drafts cuz I forget little details that get lost in the macrocosm of the story.
Full steam ahead, I guess. I gotta sleep for a bit before work though...but I feel good about where this thing is going now. Quitting something never made me feel like such a winner *laughs*
In other news, Ushicon is coming up next weekend. I'm not sure if I got those nights off, since it's not showing up on my schedule (I had to ask the boss man about why my request didn't go through), but since my shifts don't even start till 10 or 11pm, I can still hang out during the day if nothing changes. But, since it's looking like I'd be going alone anyway, I may not go at all. Ah well.
