To keep the action going here is a Friday update. The pages and photography are flowing along and I've been able to schedule some picture-taking for my wife's early work day.  I might be taking a break from this once this arc concludes.  What there's more?  It's already in the writing pipeline along with a bunch of Belle's Best stuff.

From the previous page,

unfortunately it was cropped but Aura's pose actually had her in mid-air.
@El CId: Da-tu is the same species as Fy-Zorla from Interstellar Blood Beasts. She uses telekinetic energy to divert projectiles away.  So a .44 Magnum would not have affected her either.  A robofemoid with mark IV exo-dermal armor would not even get a bruise. 
This whole universe builds on itself and remains as consistent as I can keep it going all the way back to Attack of the Robofemoids.
@PB & J: Rickover will up the setting in a few pages.  Well once he regains consciousness that is.  He's not too successful in playing hero.
Thanks everyone for the comments and keep them coming.  In a lot of ways they are what keeps me going on this thing.
I have a very comfy buffer with me just starting page 138.  I dragged the battle out with a few splash panels because the flow just seemed so right.  On some pages an additonal panel would have been distracting so there are only a couple of panels. In others I dispense with panels and just go with the fight sequences.  A lot of the posing like Aura last page was done with the figures in mid-air carefully balanced on numerous stands.  A couple of times I took the picture fast because I knew it would all fall over.
Tie-breakers for the DD awards should have wrapped up and we'll see how many or how few nominaitons Tales of SIG gets.  Thanks for your support and whatever votes the comic got.
