Okay, here's the skinny.
Including today, I have 15 days until Thanksgiving starts. Currently, I have 60 pages worth of comics to sketch.
If I sketch two pages EVERY day until Thanksgiving, I'll have 30 pages to take with me and ink. And if I can ink them all (and I've pulled inking all nighters before, they are sort of fun, sorta painful, but entirely doable) then I will have half of my pages half finished for the IP critique. I say half finished because I still have to color them.
So I'd have about 25% of my work to show at the IP critique. Which I'm hoping to bump up more percentage wise by finalizing the best way to publish it and have specs and cost estimates to show as well. And hopefully a cover. This isn't ideal, but I think this is the most feasible thing that is going to happen.
HOWEVER, if I AM lucky enough to meet that deadline, the IP critique date can't dissuade me from work. I have to keep going at that pace if I want to have things inked and colored with enough time to publish. It will be a very busy Christmas and Thanksgiving break.
So. Two pages finished yesterday, so I'm two pages ahead of schedule, but hopefully I'll be able to keep it up and pick up some slack on the weekends.
And away we go.
