Hmmm... I don't know how to say this :\

As you probably could guess from my erratic updates, I'm having a hard time following my usual schedule, lately. Well, in truth this have been going on since January, but as time passes it gets harder and harder for me to have the pages ready... The fact is:
I *really* want to tell this story--- I love the characters and I want to take them till the end of their journey. But... I've been working on UnchaineD for more than three years now, and it's been three years in which almost all my free time has been completely devoted to it. Not having time for anything other than pages is starting to get to me, especially since I feel the simplicistic style I have to use for pages (otherwise they'd take even more time @_@) is keeping me from growing as an artist, and to develop my skills and try new things. I've made some math: UD is supposed to be something between 700 and 800 pages when finished. This means other TEN years (of regular updates). @_@ right now I feel I don't have the patience and perseverance to keep doing weekly updates for the next ten years, so I'm a bit discouraged :(

Talking with my boyfriend Alessandro about my current feelings made me realize I don't have the heart to just quit - after all, if I managed to work daily on this comic for... uhmm, counting the planning stages I think it's four years now... it's because I love it :) So, I'm going to take a long hiatus instead to sort things out and try to be satisfied with my art; after all, it could just be that I'm burned out and I need some time for myself, and that the hiatus will give me my energies back and make me find the joy of working on UD again :)

I'm deeply sorry, gals and gals, but...
UNCHAINED WILL BE BACK on the 16th of March 2009

   



   

another late page... aaarrrrgh x_x am I the only one who's having a hard time concentrating on anything, this Summer? I tend to have less patience at work too @_@

I hope the paneling in this page reads well, because I know it's weeeiiird ^^;

TWC: I always leave the most difficult things in every page/illustration to the end XD; bad habit, I know, but hard to break... so I delayed colouring Azazel to the end XD;

Have a wonderful week! ^^
