Aaaaand that's the end of Chapter 1. Had to end it on a semi-ominous note. I had some fairly ambitious design ideas for some of the more extreme "mooner" characters – and I might include some of those as "Sketchbook" extras in pages to come – but these three have rather unremarkable body mods. Sorry, this is a "pilot" episode, so we'll get a bigger production budget in future installments!
 
I'm not super crazy about the first animation. It was mostly an attempt by me to do an animated walk, and then I ended up retrofitting it into the 'Jetsons' skit. It's very tricky getting all the subtle muscle movements and everything to look right on something like that and… I really didn't have time to even bother, so it came out looking kinda crappy. Hey, it's free, so you can't complain!
 
Sorry about not updating last week. Turkey-related shenanigans and such got in the way, but then I'm sure everybody's preoccupied this time of year. I'll probably wait until early January to start posting the second chapter. In the interim, I should be able to squeeze in some some behind-the-scenes and a chapter recap, and maybe some extra bonus type stuff. In Chapter 2, we'll see the darker side of Triton, as Jetta meets the nefarious Cayetano Ozuna and Manu learns that life is cheap to postmortals.
 
Until next time, thanks for stopping by, reading, commenting, and feel free to grab a fresh baked cookie on your way out.
