Phew, I've cut down to 80% of the Chapter 3 artwork! I'm going to need a few days of rest after this chapter, I guess. My time-tracking indicates that in the end I'm going to spend over 300 hours on the final artwork of Chapter 3. Chapter 2 was only 200 hours although it wasn't much shorter. This figure reflects pretty nicely the fact that Chapter 3 is going to look spectacular when it's finished. I actually started to assemble the existing artwork into the layout and to see all these detailed illustrations in one big composition is a stunning experience. So, I'm confident that in the end the hard work will pay off.
In the upcoming two weeks I'm going to finish the last milestone and prepare the layout, the cover artwork and the special content for the Wormworld Saga App. I'm working extra hours every day to make sure that on April 30th everything will be ready for launch.
Alright, lots of work ahead and the clock is ticking! I'll leave you with a few preview images which again are all cropped from larger panels:
Looks amazing as always! Take your time Daniel, cant wait for it to be finished!
ReplyDeleteWe waited a year for chapter 2, we can wait until this chapter is at its best! Cant wait :)
ReplyDeleteLooking forward to the release of chapter 3! Can't wait to find out what happens next. This is one of the best illustrated stories I've ever seen.
ReplyDeleteThis is just not normal. Its amazing and very beautiful. Just cant wrap my head around the fact that you made this in such a short time. It stunning. I feel like i can just jump right into the panels and walk through the trees. Amazing! Cant wait for chapter 3 and the rest of the story
ReplyDeleteEs ist einfach faszinierend wie viele Details du in deine Bilder packst! Ich könnte mir jedes Bild stundenlang angucken und darin versinken. Freue mich schon riesig auf das neue Kapitel!
ReplyDeleteYou're a freak! ;)
ReplyDeleteGreat work ! For us this painting will be finidhed at 3 years or more
ReplyDeleteKeep up the great work Daniel. The previews are amazing, as always. And do not worry about the deadline - we waited a whole year for Chapter 2, so waiting a few weeks longer to read a stunning Chapter 3 will be well worth the wait.
ReplyDeleteA little curiosity from a fan. ¿How many time do you spend in each frame (average)?
ReplyDeleteOh, that depends heavily on the size of the panel. The fastest panels are painted in under an hour (close-up of a character with few detail in the background) and the longest time I spent on a panel so far was 18 hours (multiscreen-panel with super detail). I would say that the average panel will take me between 2 and 3 hours to finish.
DeleteWou!!! Its an excelent performance. If I do something of your style my average would be 18 hours per panel. Ha, ha!
DeleteYour abstract paintings you were doing some time ago (or maybe still do) seem really to pay off! The world you are creating has some unique feeling (from what i can see until now) and amazin details. It just fits all together!
ReplyDeleteAs usual, really looking foreward for another very promising chapter! Hope you did not have to spen too much of your free time to compensate the details in your panels!
Can't. Wait. Any. Longer. Must. Have. More. Wormworld.....
ReplyDeleteThat's intense!
ReplyDelete4 more days to go!!!
ReplyDeleteI keep checking back hoping that we may get an early release :) You can do it Daniel!
