I seriously should have started planning this earlier!! I have no time and need to get out a ton of ideas to work through!! But I'll try!!

31 days, 25+ Revs, ??? number of cases

  • The book itself needs some planning for content - it would work fine to generate excess content and then pare it down, but doing too much might cause burnout. Tentatively, I'd like to have 10-15 cases to showcase. They don't all have to be done in full now - probably prioritise having a lot of starter ideas over having them written out in detail.
  • Not all the Revs have to be designed in full NOW but I would like some roughs to work with (no colours are fine). Characters can be refined/redesigned as I work on the assets.
  • As Art Slam is a worldbuilding-centric activity, I'd like to have some locations showcased as well. Brainstorm the look of some places, do some aesthetic pics. I think this may be more writing than drawing. Also, other non-location information, such as objects, technology, etc.
  • I think the important thing to note here is that I can't expect to have ALL the world content created in a single month - I've spent much longer on worlds that are barely developed at all. My focus here should be on generating a skeleton structure that I can flesh out as I work on the zine.

Week 1

In this week I'm still working on DV commissions, so I don't have a lot of extra time. Max of 2 drawing, 1 writing task a day, both fairly light (focusing on creating concepts/writing down existing content).

Non-character tasks are due up to the next catchup day, because sometimes I need time to chew on a concept.

Min task quota: 3 points

  • Uncoloured doodles: 1 point
  • Coloured doodles (ref-worthy): 2 points
  • Per 1 section of page written: 1 point

(Have to do this otherwise I'll not feel my work is enough...)
