In theory. + +Reality looks a bit different, though. With me moving out of my old place +because of reconstruction works, some paperwork that's been piling up alongside +personal projects which beg for my attention I am quite busy. But it is still +relaxing, since I have no schedule apart from the schedule I make up myself. + +One project that receives quite a lot of attention lately is a short comic I am +drawing. After reading some books on comic drawing and structuring I am trying +to apply some of the findings. + +For example I never really did storyboarding or panel layout before. Everything +was more or less on a whim and from the top of my head. That's not bad per se, +but can make things difficult when not being able to work on a comic page +continuously. + +Another thing that's really helpful for my motivation is that with a proper +plan and structure of my comic I get quite a good sense of progression while +drawing. The number of pages turns finite and you can focus on drawing and not +worry about the story for the next panel or page. + +When th comic is finished, I will release it on my [art portfolio](https://art.nek0.eu) +in its entirety. + +Unfortunately my endeavours in prosa writing came to a full halt, but maybe I +an fix my problems with writing in a similar way like I did with my comic +drawing, but I will have to make some research there.
