20090817 (35) - A large amount of carefully considered cropping kept this one from requiring time-consuming roof-raising renders. While it's more cramped than I'd like, I like the idea of getting td2e done this year quite a bit more than the notion of showing off the background every chance I get.

If I weren't down to a single machine at the moment, I'd probably have a different opinion on the matter, and the PC would probably be chewing on a roof-raise as I write this. :)

I still love the light-up shot.

20091008 (34) - Lettered. Will finish the rest tomorrow. In other news, West quoting Videodrome is both appropriate and whacks "let's get going" or the equivalent.... that line or one of its siblings (let's get going, let's move, let's roll, etc) has been said at least half a dozen times in the past four chapters. Maybe more. Probably more.

Had to go all the way back to the bad old days of Chapter One to get color for Xand's eyes and the cigarette. Seems fitting.

The contrast between the page I pulled color from and the current page is noteworthy:

The original layout for this page was more panels of the lightup, and one line of dialogue - West saying "Let's do this." I think the extra verbage fits nicely, though Xand's comment about tranquilizers is a bit derivative.

Breather, then the home stretch. Five pages remaining, the next two a brief scene change.
