Meanwhile

I continue the 2 pager and now starting to feel confident. Still requires 7 panels and some texts. Then translation to English and the colors. Should be titled THE SETTING OF THE LIGHT.

The story takes place between some panels in issue 23.

This thing

Working on a thing for A magazine. Two pages approximately 20 panels. As usual I'm working in the same size that it'll be published. Small panels, but I got a nice start. Should take a week to draw, couple of days to translate anď couple of days to color. I'm already getting ideas for Läskimooses.

Moment

You know that moment when you are positive that you can't draw that you can't write? You know it? Well the moment is now.

Concept

Thought up a concept for a new book. I have these waiting in line, but this is somewhat different. There's a possibility to go to new directions. Textwise mostly. Oh well...Läskimooses will require 3 or 4 yrs and who knows after that. And I know I won't have time and or opportunity to start and finish all the things I would really like to do. It's not possible unfortunately. But I would like to do one piece of depth and layers and truth.

My second oil

I'm going to try some things. Maybe do some more. This is 60x60 cm. Soon for sale at Taidelainaamo.

Well

Issue 34 has gone really well. Next week it  should be finished. After that I'm going to do a 2 pgr for one magazine, think the first draft of the script is now done. But Läskimooses...yes moving along. A weird trip. Have to do it one issue at time. Most missing pieces now found which doesn't mean there won't be changes. And page 1000 getting closer. I will let you know when this happens.
Quite happy with the current storyline, one of the main storylines in the book. Things are building up to certain points. In only few issues you'll know more. Excelsior!

Piece

A piece that was not on its place fell to its place and so the issues to follow issue 33 are:
-34, Lieskan ensileimaus
-35, Kullan kirkastuminen
-36, (material from powerbook)
-37, I'm with stupid
-38, (monkey business)
This clarified a lot for me. The story of Agner Mang split in two and concluded only after issue 38 with:
-39, Säteiden neuvosto
-40, (Helvetillisiä juttuja)

2018
-41, (what happened to Fu on earth)
-42, Kappaleiden kokoomus
-43, Viimeisten aikojen alussa
-44, Finiittien nousu
Etc...at least 10 issues more

Haha, looks like It's not going to be 50 issues and 1200 pages. More like 55. Maybe not 60.

4 yrs

So 2017 I will work on Läskimooses and reach issue 42 maybe, 2018 I will work on Läskimooses and reach issue 49 maybe, 2019 I will work on Läskimooses and reach the end of the story, 2020 I will work on the book of additions and finish it maybe. Then 4 yrs gone and maybe new president in U.S.A.
