Wednesday, Apr 17, 2013 Here's the deal. As you may have noticed my updating has been a bit spotty or delayed as late. This the first update I've missed, but I'm all out of buffer again. I'm currently looking for a job and also spending perhaps 40 hours a week building my portfolio by writing detailed articles for a professional blog and doing hardcore game design work. This means HiT has fallen behind and frankly I don't currently have the time to regather and set things up again to keep my production efficient.
I've also recently picked up some new tools for drawing, specifically mangastudio 5 and a keypad to help with shortcuts while working on my tablet (going from 8 shortcut keys to 24 is a big deal). When doing the comic I don't have much of a chance to use these tools, and I won't learn them if I don't focus on mastering them for a while. I want to learn how to draw real backgrounds and proper graphic novel style perspectives and shots, rather than my traditional front on camera. This means learning proper perspective, which MS5 is great for with some inbuilt 3d tools and perspective guides.
So I'm going to take a break from doing the comic story. I'm going to focus on learning to use the new tools I've got and produce some work that will help build my CV. I'm going to try really hard to make sure there's something HiT related to upload here every week, so keep checking back, but the story will be on hold for a while. I hope I picked a reasonable point for this.
