sort of. The domain is there now (ellieconnelly.com), and there's a 'coming soon' message and the beginnings of a site design. I'm excited to actually be making it real finally. I'll be taking my time to make sure the site is really right before I start posting real comics there, but don't worry, when I do I'll be sure to let y'all know.

I also spent some time last night polishing the plot of the story, making sure it was going to work in the 8-page chunks I've decided to use as a structure.

My friend John was asking which coloring scheme I'm going to use, and to be honest I'm not sure yet. A refresher:

L: The strict black & white tones - R: Simple flat colors

'The Best of Both Worlds' mixed style.

While I really like the look of the bottom, mixed style, there's certainly something to be said for the speed and clarity of the simple flat colors. At this point, I'm going to lean into the 'it depends' camp. My priority is to get the updates up on a regular basis once I begin, and while I have seven pages inked already, I don't have any fully colored yet, in any style. So, at a minimum I'll be posting black and white line art. If I have time, I'll add flat colors, and if I have a lot of time (or find a faster way to do it) I'll add in the black and white shading.

It's either that or lose my sanity.
