   It's been a while since I've posted, I wanted to leave the news about J3's launch up as long as possible.
   I did this image back in the beginnings of this month when I picked up Rawart's latest version of his Genesis 2 bears. (2.0) I love it.
    The background is Stonemason's, set up by the Earthquake package. (lit too) The bot in the background is also Stonemason's. The bot in the foreground I'm not sure, it's from Daz though.
The bears are wearing gear from Ultimate Military Uniform and Hardcase, with accessories and weapons from various packages.
  

   I liked this so much I have the beginnings of a story in mind for them, though I'm not sure about the timeline. I'm leaning to the 1st AI war or 2nd, but I'm not sure. I've had input from the Beta's suggesting the current time period. lol
    BTW, the black bear on the left is a female. The Polar bear is the officer. Grizzly is heavy weapons.

    I'm also thinking about doing another squad, this one a mixed one of neo's and aliens like Jethro's squad. This one with a panda, tiger, Veraxin bug, Relgarth lizard, bird, ape, and some others... ;)

    I am hoping Rawart will come out with more packs, a revision of his ape pack (though I have a chimp head) and a revision of his dogs would be nice. But I can't find a contact method to pester him/her about it. lol
   I thought about buying the Genesis Gorilla for a neo image or 2 (or more) but decided to wait and see what Rawart comes up with.

   Oh, another BTW, Mechmaster liked the image enough to suggest basing a comic around it. lol Tempting, but not now unfortunately.

  Progress: I will hopefully get Multiverse 1 back from Rea and Goodlife sometime this weekend or next week. Once I get it back I get to go over it and approve of the changes (tedious) and then hand it back to Goodlife for the final format. (that takes a week to 10 days)
   Bootstrap 2 Second Chances is struggling along. I'm up to 335 pages so far, I'm creeping slowly to the end. I am a bit concerned, I'm still 1/3rd into act 3 (I'm taking a different approach, the 1st 2 acts are short stories) and I've almost got 2 books on my hands here. I'm not sure if I should split them up or not.
    I am also struggling with the cover art. It is the most ambitious I've ever done. A lot of Dinoraul dino's, with aliens and people and vehicles... yeah, I'm nuts, it probably is too ambitious. I'm also annoyed, I bought some stuff (like the new grass/stone pack at Daz) ... only to find out I can't use because they didn't work out. That's a waste of $$. Grrr. Sigh. Write off!
   I had hoped to have both the book and cover art done by the end of this month but nope, not going to happen. Too many distractions, and it's been hard to focus. And with the heat starting up and the brat pack out of school... ugh. Writing is extremely hard to do in summer. >:P
