20070724 : Type fixes.

===================================================

Be sure to read the Lexicon entry detailing HRD Signatures, as something about oscillation is mentioned in there. What isn't should be inferrable through syntax.

You might want to read up on the Waking God Protocols while you're at it. I revised the heck out of that entry prior to doing the HRD writeup, so everything's nice and fresh.

Man, I remember my original notes for Chapter Zero repeatedly emphasizing "22-24pp max, aim for newstand length" or some such. Over and over and here we are on page 26 with another 10-15 left before the end of the chapter. Go me.

This page took forfuckingever- the lettering was lengthy (spread over several ADD-filled hours Friday night, partially paralyzed by the concept of attempting to get something this big done in one night), the pencilling and inking took awhile, and if it weren't for the previous page, I'd still be working on backgrounds.

You can blame Scott of VGCats for inspiring the first six panels (and three on the next page)- his reaction/timing work cracks my shit up. I can't imagine doing drug ingestion any other way (remember this?).

I think this is the highest panel count in a single page to date, though I may be wrong- all told it was about as much work as signal -5/6- (at least on the linework end).

A few hours later and I'm noticing the tiny little flaws that always slip by in the heat of production- a slight lighting issue with hair in panel seven, height disparity between Raven and Tantek in panel five... I can mostly excuse that one on account of chibi, framing, etc. There is a chair in front of the desk, which ought to show up on the next page... excuses, excuses. Scale is another on the long, long list of things I need to work on.
