So here we find ourselves at the last page in our queue.

I'm going to assume I'll finish the next page by Friday and maybe get one more done over thanksgiving. If at some point in the rest of the year I go on a 3 week break then there won't be enough to update once a week. My goal was to post a page a week or 52 pages in the year will fall though. Huh… Maybe I'll go back to greyscale just to increase my output speed… too bad… I wanted to completely color this chapter.

In this page I decided to do more compositing. So I separated the foreground and background into 2 different layer groups. This way I can make the background more lighter and make the foreground pop.

It wasn't very efficient. I think I had 15 different layers and my file bloated to 56MB. I'm used to working with 10MB source file, and honestly my laptop struggled with the larger file.

I rather work with less than 10 layers, and maybe I can get there as my skill increases in coloring.

Y'know I've been treating this whole comment section incorrectly. I guess I treated it like my art diary, but I should be talking more about the story. lol. Starting next page, I'll do a little of both.
