It's Wednesday! Update time! I haven't made a whole heckuva lotta progress in the last few days - this is largely due to the technical difficulties. Since I work from the road, everything I do is on a laptop. Turns out that my laptop is experiencing some sort of power issue; occasionaly it'll turn off when it has a full battery, or even when it's plugged in. Sometimes it wil be plugged in, but the battery will drain anyway, and it will shut down once the battery is dead. It's all very confusing. I looked up the issue online and it my be related to a bad motherboard component. So the computer's usable to a degree, but not at all reliable. I've spent the past few days re-creating my work environment on my fiancee's laptop. Now that I'm up and running on a new machine, I can get back to work.
This is one of the hazards of working from the road; you're very dependent on what you have with you. Last year the computer I'm on now had a hard-drive failure, and I spent the next two weeks without a machine. This was a pain, but I was at the stage in the process where drawing mattered more then anything else, so it turned out okay. If I had been without this backup machine this go round, I would have been in pretty bad shape.
