It's good to spend time on your manga, right? To work hard getting all the details correct, drawing believable backgrounds (with correct perspective and all that)... So why do I always find myself drawing comics super-speed at the last minute!?!

Sometimes it's fun to push yourself. I currently have to finish a 26 page half-size comic (that is, landscape A6 instead of portrait A5) to go to print on the 28th. Not too bad, as I've already completed all the pencil stages of the comic. A bit worse because I have lots of socialising to do.

I don't begrudge the socialising, it'll just make the comicking hurt more! ^_~ The need to finish off the comic is the reason I don't have an avatar here yet, a proper intro post, or anything else... Why am I posting here again, and not drawing?

My current records for finishing a comic are: 8 days for 21 pages, and 9 days for 19 half-size pages. XD Most of the early issues of Fantastic Cat were each drawn in about 2 weeks.

So, if you ask me to go to dinner and I mumble something about needing to ink a dozen pages before midnight, I'm probably speed-comicking. Please excuse my temporary hermit-like existance. XD

(Later, I'll do a proper intro post. I'm not sure if it's totally needed... but might be useful to have a disclaimer)
