Yo! WIP Time.

Don't read any further if you'd like to be surprised by my next piece. If you're coasting in from last week or are too curious to care then read on! :XD:

Progress this past week has been slow. Slow as arctic molasses stirred in December.



I've hit that point where 80% of my efforts will yield only 20% of the results. It's where endurance is key.

Brad Bird (director of The 'Incredibles' and the 'Iron Giant') lovingly calls this stage of production the "crap" stage.

Things look like they're going absolutely nowhere and nothing seems to be on schedule.

The prickly feeling of scrapping everything because its WRONG is overwhelming.

All the sticky little flaws at the beginning of the production decide to have an orgy and let their love children run and slide all over the project.

The only thing you can do is get a mop and clean up after them.

This stage is something that all artists face. It's an essential part of the creative process. The longer the project the longer it lasts.

I'll just have to fight through it!

Cel shades, dramatic lighting, and dynamic perspective are my weaknesses. Transform Blue Bomber will tackle those things head on.

There may be three more WIP updates before this piece is finished. Bear with me.
  
The dust from fighting is making it a bit hard to see.
