So the next story takes place at the same time as The Better to Find You With (You get Connor’s side of this phone conversation). While I have their uniforms down, I realized they will need coats while they run around in the snow. I wanted Connor’s coat to be a little more stylish than Jeff’s but also imply being closed off. The high collar was I thought would be a good solution. I might make his coat a little longer so it can flap dramatically while he runs. Maria’s coat is more in line with the average coat that’s been showing up in the series.

So I redid Mina a bit after doing the first design. They were mostly small tweeks to push what I want out of it.

A new episode of A Series of First Impressions is up. Joe’s pick this time around. He picked Better Call Saul. We talk about how it gave Molly unexpected feelings.

Spike, Amanda, and I got another episode of Dirty Old Ladies up. Spike goes over what she looks for in her submissions and pitches when acting as a publisher. Amanda and I talk about the coming at pitches and submissions from an artist stand point. I go over the difference in pitching a work-for-hire story on a property I don’t own vs a creator owned pitch.

During the book there is also an investigation scene that is in a poorer apartment. I wanted this to contrast Maria’s apartment a lot. Again space and what level the apartment is on are the two factors in apartments. So the poorest ones are gonna be small and have no windows since they don’t get light from outside much anyway.
