I'm still working on scanning in all my Sakuracon pictures. I took about five rolls worth, so give me some time. I'll post them as soon as I can.
This should tide you over until then.

It's been a busy week so far, and it doesn't look like it's going to ease up anytime soon. New job is going well, keeping me busy. I've been doing rewrites on chapter 2 and the newer version is going to change things later. It's for the best though. It's funnier now and I'm working Frank and Denko into the story earlier than I had originally planned, which I think is a win-win situation, since Denko has already become the most popular character.
My main concern with the writing so far has been keeping the humor aspect of the story once the slightly more serious second half happens. My first couple of versions start to lose the humor about 1/2 way, so I decided to scrap both of those, and do a more "write as I go" approach to make sure I keep the writing quality up. Mostly, I'm just trying not to burn myself out.

There has been one new fan art submission since the last update, so everyone should go check out that section. Don't be shy now! Feel free to send in your own fanart. We'll post it. It's fun for us, and keeps us motivated.

Well, that's about it for now. I'll keep you posted, but like Aponce said, he's not going to have much time for drawing anything except the actual comics until we launch in May. Keep watching this space. I'll make sure you know what's going on behind the scenes ;)

Hello again...Here's one finished piece I was finally able to get ready in time. Unfortunately, with work being such a pain, I won't be able to finish up any other flyer artwork for SakuraCon.

Also, I may not be able to make many updates for this coming month. I've got to concentrate on these last two weeks of work and then later, work on the final artwork for JN Chapter 1 so I can have those ready by May.

Well, that's about it for now...Talk to you again, soon! :)
