Well, after posting some snippets, of a personal project I've been working on, I've finally decided it's time to start putting this front and center and dedicating as much time to this as possible.

A few years ago, I decided I wanted to make a graphic novel.  I've always loved comics, especially in graphic novel format, and thought it would be a fun side project to try and make one of my own.  I knew right from the start that trying to make a graphic novel is a LOT of work, but I didn't know just HOW much work it would be until I got into the thick of things.  I've drawn comics before when I was younger, but I've never actually finished a comic beyond 20 - 30 pages.  So I knew right away that the main goal for me would just to actually finish a graphic novel.  A "success" for me would just be the ability to actually hold a book in my hands and be able to look at it and say "I made this."  I don't really care if it looks the best (although I will certainly try very hard to produce my best work), I mainly just want it to be fully completed.

I'll save more specific details about the project for some of my future journals about it, but I will say that I've written 170 + pages of script for the book and drawn and inked close to 50 pages.  I've finished story boarding the story (very roughly) and I also know how the story will end, I just haven't written all of the pages leading up to it yet. The way things have worked out, I haven't been able to start coloring yet, beyond just a few tests (Here and here) that I did when I first started the project.

I'm currently focusing on trying to finish the script (at least the rough draft) and then hopefully get to working on busting out more pages.
