Update #29: Leaps and Bounds!

Posted on March 2, 2010

Hi guys!

Quick update, for those who haven't received their lithographs in the mail, I'm printing the last round this weekend. Thanks to this project, I have a nice set of four Wonder City prints, each unique to the plot of the book. The wheels are turning in my head, and I already have one in mind for the cover of the book.

And speaking of the book, this week I officially finished 4/5 of the pencilling, that's page 80! Sixty pages in 3 months is a huge accomplishment for me (since I work full time!). We have tons of new content on our blog www.buildingthewondercity.blogspot.com, so visit the site and become a fan!

And now that the weather's getting slightly warmer, the idea of our The Wonder City walking tour doesn't seem so frightful. Stay tuned for information on that!

xoxo, Courtney
