So obviously, as the title states here, there's a few delays hee in my life that's keeping me from actually finishing the big 3 Page spread, and after reaing Jonboy's Journal the other day about having "Upgraded" his PC to Vista...I realized "Shit...we have Vista on this one too...gotta see if the scanner will work on this." Surprise Surprise.....it didn't. I downloaded the software directly from the Epson site....3 Fuckin time in fact, and nothing. Can't get the damned scanner to work with Photoshop. So because of that reason, I'm taking a little more time to finish this thing up.

Right now I've only got some Minor details to flesh in and fix, and having just turned off the light at my desk after setting the wall weave pattern to the pages (you'll see what I mean when I get them scanned) and getting the border all filled in in Pencil, since it'll be an all black border as I like to do on my Pin-Ups, I discovered a few Lighting problems with this, so I'll hit all those up tomorrow night after I get home.

as far as Inking this Puppy goes, I wasn't planning on it, but I think when I do get around to the inks..I'm gonna have to just Man up and blueline all 3 pages. Had some Issues with Ivy's face (that's the name of my character who's in ALL of my Tiki pics for those who don't know) the other day after finally adding her into the pic, saved her for last since I had to get soooooooooooooOOOOOOOOOOOO many other details done first on this, and because of the shitty paper I'm using, there's just a lot of problems I want to avoid when inking. Plus, while laying down the weave on the wall, I was holding my Tuffstuff eraser in my mouth, and drooled a big ole WAD of spit onto the 1st page. That right there will cause issues with Inking. Yeah, that's right...I drooled. Can't help it, overactive saliva glands. I spit for that reason....and have been since like 3rd grade. So laugh if you want to.....I'm sure it's happened to you several times.

So, it's 3am here, and I've gotta be up and on the Bus to the Westside by 8:30am, which means I'm off to beddy-bye. as soon as I can fix the issues with the scanner, I'll have the pages up here as fast as I can. Just don't hold your breath.
