Geez… I’ve been so tired these past couple of days. I’ve finished Chapter 3 completely, and is halfway through toning Chapter 4. So that’s 3 chapters complete, 1 halfway done, 3 more to go. After I finish Chapter 4, I would have gone over the 50% mark (I’ll probably post up samples, but later on). I’ve also got other work I’m planning to get done after Volume 1 of “The Dreaming”, so my brain is constantly rolling and rolling… maybe that’s why I’m so tired.

First, it would be an overhaul of some of the pages of “Block 6” – which needs an overhaul because the plot is going to making a major shift in 1.5 chapters. While I’m overhauling AND drawing “Block 6” pages, I’ll be working on the main story of “Yuen”, which thankfully is divided into a number of over-arching short stories. Maybe it’s the THOUGHT of doing all that which is boggling my mind out. Oh, and I got a few more opera singer colour CGs due as well. And I gotta do the company taxes as well, and my own personal taxes. *collapses*

 

Howl’s Moving Castle News:

Anyway, I have FINALLY found novels by Dianne Wynn Jones in this country. But… none of the good ones, darnit. And the English version of Howl’s Moving Castle has it’s trailer and website up, and let’s hope Disney doesn’t bury this film like it did other Miyazaki films. I listened to the English trailer, and I must say I really like Howl’s voice. Definately more than the Japanese and Mandarin version. I’ll be obediently filing into cinemas when it comes out here (hopefully it does).

 

For Final Fantasy Fans:

This is THE most hilarious flash movie I have seen for a long time. If you’re a veteren gamer and remembers Final Fantasy 6 (possibly the greatest FF game in the series), then you’ll LOVE this spoof of the Final Fantasy 6 ending. It’s by a Japanese team and titled “Sega Fantasy 6”, and features every console that has ever existed doing battle against the nefarious PSP, who’s crime is apparently being one step away from a multimedia machine. If you want to see the Sega Saturn, the Gamecube, Gameboy, Neo Geo and Playstation 1 pound the crap out of the PSP, this is your movie. I was NEVER a Sony fan so I just laughed all the way through – the spoof “special attacks” are worth it all. Watch such deadly moves such as the Nintendo “L5 Lawsuit”, “Start Up Failure” and “Tech Support” (“Please hold. Your call is important to us.”) in action.
