Squid and Owl Are On Hiatus

Yes, it's sad. Final page, until I create more:

The odd thing is that there are supposed to be words against a white background. But they aren't showing unless you click to see full size. No, I can't explain it either.

In other news, Mei Mei drew this:

 

She is a happy child, basically. And very infuenced by Zoë's eye-stylings.

 

Me? I'm enjoying my relaxing break from illustration by scanning in some old stuff from the files. (Click to view the whole Flickr set. As I say over there: it has a terrific sort of 'life of the party' wearisomeness.)

Aww. Well, I promise to be happy and undisappointed so long as the book's ship-and-receivable by Christmas! ;-)

The black background thing probably has something to do with the alpha channel of the original being automatically filled in with black. If you're doing this in Photoshop or something, you can set the background to solid white or add a bottom layer that's solid white and that ought to solve the problem.

"he black background thing probably has something to do with the alpha channel of the original being automatically filled in with black."

Yeah, I sort of worked that out for myself after some experiment. But thanks. I left it the same, just to be all mysterious.
