Well, last night, I finally found some time to work some more on my next piece, portraying Mirai Suenaga in battle. But damn, due to my ongoing blog updates and other responsibilities, it&#8217;s been slow progress since May 28th; only my 10th random day in the last month. Sadly, no more than a couple hours each day.<\/p>\n<p>So to rectify the situation, I thought a progress post would kick my anime butt into high-gear! From Draft 10a, here&#8217;s a 750&#215;500 section of the full 1800&#215;1200 battle scene so far, with layers and layers of temporary reference images beneath my black lines. My reference images include those from <em>Fate\/Stay Night<\/em> and <em>Ergo Proxy<\/em>. But at this point, I estimate a mere 10% completed. Hmmm, maybe I&#8217;ll cut the frequency of my blog posts?
