No GravatarSorry for all the lack up updates the last few weeks. I’ve been having a hard time getting motivated, and so many things have gotten in the way. This week in particular has really sucked and I’m starting to feel like I really want to give up. I started coloring page 96 and just couldn’t get myself to finish it. So, I thought I’d skip it for now and maybe render it in black and white later. Instead I started working on the next page so that you would at least have two pages this week. I’ve gotten as far as the thumbnails, but have been too frustrated to finish the sketches. I know there’s a handful of you out there that enjoy the comic, and I really appreciate your support. Right now, however, I’m just not sure if I want to keep it up. Perhaps, I’m just feeling a little burned out. Or perhaps it’s just typical artists angst. I’ve got loads of that. Those of you who are artists likely know what I mean. One minute you feel good about it, then you see some “real” artist’s work and all you can think about is how much you suck. I’ve been feeling a lot of that lately. Maybe I just need to work through it or something.

    Just take a little of inspiration hunt, remember :)

    I don’t know how to rid you of frustration but I really will be upset if something happends to Far Reaches -_- And not only me, I believe – the Far Reaches are steady going up in Buzz rating, AFAIK.

    I understand what you mean but, hey, some people look at YOUR work and getting similar idea of their own imperfection ;) I even know a people who would like to draw like you :)

    Cheers up!

    Thanks for the encouragement. I’m starting to think that it’s not so much the comic that has me down, but everything else going on right now. I guess I’ve just not been feeling too good, and it’s made it hard to do anything. It’s so easy to get discouraged. But I will do my best to persist. It would be a shame to stop now, especially when I’ve been doing it for almost a year. Besides, I’d really like to see this next page finished.
