Looking at last week's journal, what have you changed so that you can improve your work?
I try to make more efficient use of my time. When I am at college, I do things that I cannot do at home, and vice-versa.
How many hours have you animated this week?
6 hours
What did I accomplish this week?
I am working on animating a bear in flash, and lip-syncing in Maya.
I also got the oppourtunity to watch Persepolis in the cinema.
What did you learn this week?
Watching Persepolis showed me various things that can be done in 2D and with limited colour.
What stopped me from doing more?
I, myself stopped myself.
What will you do to make sure it never happens again?
I refuse to let it happen again.

Gesen chapter 4 continues
After about 2 weeks, I finally managed to get the next page of Gesen up online.
Read it on Drunkduck or Mangabullet.
The choice is yours.
Also, work has begun on a much needed Cast page for Gesen, and the Drunkduck page has receieved some updated navigation buttons, including a link here.
I will begin working on the comicdish mirror soon, it's just that I have to resize all the pages so far again, just for comic dish. I haven't abandoned that mirror and it will be getting some attention soon.

Week 4/38
Looking at last week's journal, what have you changed so that you can improve your work?
I have spent more time working on my work.
How many hours have you animated this week?
Around 5 hours
What did I accomplish this week?
I completed my section of the Cheese animation.
What did you learn this week?
I didn't really learn anything, I focussed on using techniques I've already learnt to complete the animation.
What stopped me from doing more?
Spent too much time working on other things.
What will you do to make sure it never happens again?
I will try using a timetable to make use of my time more efficiently.
My section is the first 8 seconds.
In terms of applying for university, so far I am strongly considering staying on at CONEL to go onto the Level 4 HND course.

The Redesigning of Miku Sassuran
Seeing as the entire series has been rebooted, it's only natural for some of the characters to get redesigns, right. Basically, this may be the first of many posts about characters redesigns (it's likely that a lot of these will be members of the Izoku Clan.)
Anyway the first character who's been redesigned is Miku Sassuran. Below is her original design which was seen in the first edition of Gesen that went online.

Her appearance was very similar to that of Asuna Kyuno's, you could even argue that she just had a palette swap. So, Miku's been redesigned...
...to this!
Her colour palette remains the same, however her jumper has changed to a polo-neck, she now has a utility belt/purse/whatever you want to call it, and the most noticeable change is the increased length of her hair.

Universal Update Scehdule
Starting next week, all mirrors of Gesen will have updates on Fridays, and all up to date.

New Mirror
You can now read Gesen on gesen.comicdish.com.
Due to the fact that this is the newest mirror, it's not as far into the story as Mangabullet or DrunkDuck, but I will probably try to make all 3 parallel at somepoint.
I hope to have a "Cast" page up soon on comicdish (and probably here too). I'm still unsure whether i should continue updating on deviantart or just reserve that for other kids of art. It can be really tedious having to manually post the links to the next and previous pages for each and every page.
Seeing as there's a new mirror I may make a third version of chapter covers specifically for ComicDish, but with other projects that will be announced soon, I doubt I will have time for making 3 different covers for the same chapter. I would still like to if I could.
You can check out how Gesen looks on Comicdish here, but it's still under construction XD.
