I was forced to take some time off, I've apparently gotten a bit too obsessed about writing, some other stuff, death of a friend, and the cat medical issues. My BP went through the roof. (200 over 110) But I've gotten back on track, or I'm trying to now.
Here is the cover of Jethro 4 Recruiting Drive. I did this right after I passed the book on to the betas.
In other news, since I had to take some time off, it didn't mean I hadn't abandoned working on Founding of the Federation short stories 1 Stepping Stones, it just meant I had to take it slower... I managed to get a few bits tucked in there, some in PR, some in J5, some in the first Reborn Federation short story book... and cleaned up a few future books up for later.
I also modeled some more of the characters from J4 in Daz3D. I'll post them later. (you can see a few on the cover image above) A few like the characters for the air crew for the below ship will wait until I get around to modeling the ship itself...
It has been hot here, (95!) so I've struggled to get back into writing. I'm currently considering working on modeling the Marine attack craft that is in J4 and a couple of the short stories. I call it the
"Bell-Ichim
222 Osprey Attack Craft" It will be my own version of this:
I'd like to get the characters, my notes, tech stuff, and models of the ships/craft together with Jory (and the star system maps he's working on) into the Wiki he started. Eventually. Hopefully. Maybe...sooner or later? :P
I did get another short story for Stepping Stones done this week, and another almost finished. It is nearly 1/3rd finished. Hopefully I can pick up the pace this week.
...And I've just been informed I'm being dragged off to Dairy Queen to spend time with the family. Then they get to sit around and watch the race while I muddle through other things. :)
That's that for this! Until next time!
Hope your BP gets better. Make sure you take your med's for it! You do not want to go down the road to letting BP get out of control and not just for heart attacks and strokes. High blood pressure can end up doing damage to your kidney's. I know this as a person who let his BP slide too much and ended up with reduced kidney function. Trust me when I say you do not want to go down that road. It sucks. Go slow, be well, and we can wait.
ReplyDeleteNow, nice cover and the gunship looks great. Is that a full shot of Bast on the cover?
Yeah, the BP thing stinks.
DeleteCover: Thanks, yes it is Bast.
The Gunship isn't mine, it's just what I want mine to look like. Sort of. I've been working on it all week. I'll post it sometime soon.
Thanks for the J4 sneak peak on the facebook group! It will be great to read the whole thing lol.
