The cover is done, and posted here on my LiveJournal if you want a peek.

Off to draw the rest now.

Still sluggishly trying to get this moving, guys.  I can only apologise - things just keep getting in the way and I've just had more work thrown at me.

I am plugging away, though - and it will be out by the year's end.

Don't get excited - it's not good news.  I can't put off posting this any longer though, since there's no light through the trees yet.

No movement guys.  I'm really sorry - work has just been mental and I haven't been able to get to Grit at all (nor am I in a position to turn any work down ATM, due to a change in Doug's and my circumstances.  Long story, but if you want to blame something, blame television.  The "making of", not the "watching of", I haven't turned on the TV all year).

So, it's not looking good for ep 19 making it out by the year's end.  More like sometime in the New Year, thanks to the forced hiatus. 

Again, I can only humbly apologise - this isn't the news I want to tell you, and I am positively dying to get to the drawing board with this ep.  And I will as soon as I get some slack from my clients.

Still don't get excited - just letting you all know where I'm at.

FINALLY finished the layouts, so it's pencils away. 

And as for pages, this ep is a monster at...*winces*...64 pages.

New Years' Resolution - to not do this again.  

No more guesses from me as when this behemoth will be ready for release, as I'm constantly wrong, and can only take so many admissions of wrongness.  I  will, however, post preview panels up as I go and keep you all updated with what page I'm up to.

Well, after a teeth-grinding, PG hobbling pile of work since the start of the year I've finally completed all the things that have been preventing me from getting to episode 19. *weak cheer*  With the exception, of course, of work that actually pays the rent and feeds my cat, I am going to be saying a definite "no" to anything else until this episode is done.

So ...over the last week, movement has finally happened and I'm back into it and forging ahead. 

For those who enjoy a sneak peek, here's a teaser panel - (link!). 

I'll be back with another teaser when I've knocked out another bunch of pages.

Slowly moving forward through it all - 'bout a third of the way through.

Hi guys. Fourth teaser panel here. Up to page 50.

Doing my best, but things have been crazy with this month becoming completely mental. Hoping that next month settles down some so I can finally push it over to page 65.

Still alive, still crawling along. Only 6 more pages to draw of this 65 page nearly-killed-me-numerous-times behemoth. Here's the last preview pencil before I commence inking.

Sorry for the delay, guys. It seems the moment I get a step ahead, I get slammed with work. Ep 19 has been positively plagued by this. Next week should see an easing off and more free time for me to get this underway.
