Spent new years eating healthy and getting some pages prepared, blue lines printed, for inking for NUTS, Dream Life book two pt 2.

There was a modest scenic snow dump, so the view from my studio was nice.

Night all!

Decide to use the 10 pages done digitally of Dream Life 2 as pencils. Going at it traditionally from this point on!
Have a 3month crunch to get a bunch done, a more involved Substack post is going up about all this mid Monday!

#WIP on Nuts, why do I give myself so many plants to draw and ink? Little more to go and some digital in post too probably. Have to revise Scrappy on the right page in the second panel, shrink him down a bit...

I read Butor’s Mobile and Robbe-Grillet’s Topology of a Phantom City in preparation for this and I’m glad I did.
