With this update, the final sketches for the Cast Page Revamp project are complete and ready to be inked later in the week. In fact, we had so much time left over once the last sketch was done that I took the opportunity to start on the inking phase of the project as well. Looks like things are rolling on right on schedule with how I anticipated!

Tomorrow’s show will take a break from this project to start working on something else that is long overdue: the first page of the Chronicles of Ademar. I got big plans for this one.

The first official run of the show tonight went pretty smoothly. Not only was it a test of the time slot/scheduling of material, but it was also a test of my own abilities. I’ve been recovering from a few health problems and the meds I had to take caused my hands to shake, which made it difficult to ink a straight line (and is why Peter & Company hasn’t been updated for a couple months). Tonight I skipped the warmup sketches and just went straight to the main test; as it turns out, I’m back to my old self once again. Awesome.
In the midst of a bit of singing and other silliness, I managed to ink 3 of the 4 poses from the Buckley turnaround in the two hours of the show. The last will be inked with tomorrow night’s show, as well as an old turnaround I started back in Savannah of Advisor Kimodo.

There are a lot more details in the inked version (the belt, the fuzziness on her bow, etc.). I usually don’t put them all in with the pencils since it makes it harder to erase and get a clean scan. I’ll just wait for the inking stage instead, making mental notes as I sketch.
Thanks to everyone who stopped by to check out the debut of the show tonight! Tune in tomorrow night for the rest of the ink work.
