Kev had a rough A5 ashcan of the first 12 pages at Hi-Ex, he had printed it up himself to see how it looked. I was suitably impressed, let me tell you.

Kev was one of the three gents who stepped up so fantastically to let me get some precious 'con' time at the weekend, the others being Locust & Dog Deever, or Team Red Sands as we heard Locust call us.

Oh cool - I think this is the first I've heard of it so it is heartening to also hear it works as a collection (handily cuts out that worrying stage in between ;) ). Bodes well for a future collection :)
if I went 'round saying I was an Emperor just because some moistened bint had lobbed a scimitar at me, they'd put me away!

Its OK Roger told me on Wednesday Chat that he hasn't glanced at this thread so we are relatively safe. ;)

Oooo lookie, it is Fractal Friction Friday already!! I've seen the inks which are marvellous and Fes is busting his hump on the colouring and it should be with you sometime tomorrow morning/afternoon.

A thing of beauty! Much as I loved the giant elephant transporter thingy, I'm v excited by the angry dragon....

Good work all round. Esp. Fester (and not I'm not simpering) - he's had a workload from hell for the past couple of weeks but was determined that the last two FF pages would happen and would happen well.

Ha, cheers Grimm!  The only catch is I don't get to draw any more of your weird flying dragons that you dreamed up! Unless Emperor manages to crow bar them back in at some point...

Insane as ever and I'm not really sure what's going on but I'm loving every page of it. Fester, that's some fantastic work.

Indeed. With Kev not having the time for his page Fes really stepped up to the plate and given the time and other pressures he has gone above and beyond my expectations (granted that is a recurring feeling with each page but given the pressures he has managed to keep the quality frighteningly high).

Someone hasn't read their arc 3 outline have they? ;) You have a good excuse though :)

If you have any questions then feel free to ask away.

Vomit saves the multi verse! Nothing out there in publishing matches that surely. Fine work fellas.

hmmm - I think I must have skipped one or two, because i've (literally) lost the plot! Time for a re-read methinks. Or maybe I'll wait till the end - how many parts will this first arc have?

Chris' page next week will be the last of this arc and then the Matt's page (the following Friday) will be the first of arc 3 which is now nearly all plotted out (and arc 4 is close to being done - so we have everything nearly mapped out to the end of this chapter in autumn).
