If I seem curt or dismissive, it's usually not because I'm trying to be. I'm just socially inept. :/

I'll help you on two conditions:
1) I try to help, but I don't know everything, and I'm not an expert, so I might not be able to fix it.
2) If I don't respond right away, it not that I'm ignoring you, I'm just busy or something.
Oh, and I edit my posts more often than I make new ones, so use the Refresh/Reload button on your browser.

Uh oh, two pages this week! I'm going to try to swing Monday and Thursday next week too, and see if I can keep it up. I was comfortably able to get this page done in 3 days, and I had to redraw the last panel after realizing I'd worked in an unnecessary camera angle change.
I believe I could get up to three pages a week, if XTIN was a paying job and I could hire professionals to fix all the stuff I've been having to do myself. I'd say I easily lost enough time for another page to drywall this week.
This page begins the last scene of issue 2. I think it's going to be long, maybe another 20 pages. You're going to learn a lot in this scene, and things will start to make sense. If you're having doubts about how well this hangs together, this scene should end them.
I'm eager to have it finished. When it's done I can start shopping the book around, do fun things on Kickstarter . . .
I think I may change the way this is collected, and instead of having Issues 1,2,3,4, as planned, have a volumes 1 and 2. If this goes 20 more pages, than I've probably got enough concept art to fill it out to 100 pages. That's a pretty decent size book. Nearly as big as I thought the whole GN would be.
I am so looking forward to having that first volume in my hands!

And that's enough comic pages for three 22 page issues. It's not significant in terms of webcomics, but it still feels like a milestone.
New vote incentive - more of those dang ad designs. There's one I like this time.
I'm going to try for a M W F update schedule this week. The next page is about halfway done, I should be able to do it.

I see these last pages tie back to the beginning of the story, nice move. It might have been even more efficient if you had echoed the coloured style of those first pages too, at least for a panel or two to make the tie-in even more clear.

Please vote!

Pg 43 - ten panels folks. I drew seven yesterday, while taking time for other things. It helps that these panels are small. There's more perspective to set up, and more composition, but the inking is less work and that's where most of the time goes. But still, seven panels in one day, with lettering. I may manage to get on a daily schedule with my current equipment (if it survives).
The next two pages could be a bit on the painful side - try to make it through to next week. Don't bail until after next week.
Oh yeah, it's nice to see the 170s again! Can we make the 160s?

This one's got 9 panels.
There are a bunch more talky pages coming.

At first I was only impressed by your drawings, but very confused about the story, but now with those clear dialogs the storytelling works for me very well. Btw. nice site!
