Hey, everyone!

We've got some great news to share. All of the line art for Vanya: The Lost Warrior #10 is now complete! 🎉

Coloring is making excellent progress and is now about 50% finished. At the current pace, we're on track to have the entire issue completed ahead of schedule, with a projected finish around mid-August.

STATUES

The production on the statues is ramping up now that we've approved the final design. Based on the current pace, we should be expecting to see the statues far sooner than December. Fingers crossed!

Here's the recent mockup of the box: 

DIGITAL COMPENDIUM

The Digital Compendiumwill be distributed alongside Issue #10, so you'll receive both rewards at the same time.

Thank you all for your continued patience and support throughout production. Your enthusiasm for Vanya means the world to our team, and we can't wait to share the next chapter of her journey with you. We'll keep you posted as we head into the final stretch!

Art update and Statue Update!

Hey, folks!

This has been an interesting process for us now that we're working with Steve Colle as our story editor. As with any new workflow, we've discovered a few kinks that slowed us down a bit in the beginning, but that's exactly why you refine a process—we've worked through most of those hurdles and things are running much smoother now.

As for progress, we currently have about 16 pages of line art completed and 6 pages fully colored. With the book clocking in at 32 pages, we're sitting in a pretty good spot and expect things to move much more quickly from here now that we've gotten the early editing challenges behind us.

Thanks for your patience as we continue building a better pipeline. We think the extra attention to the story is going to make for a stronger book, so it's absolutely worth it! 

Here is Page 1! (we're revising the colors right now to get the right look. I'll share the colored image once it's complete). Not many pages to share this issue without spoiling things, haha. 

Here's a few progress shots of the statue!

Things seem to be moving along a little faster than they did with the Death Nell statue, which is definitely encouraging. We're still sticking with our original estimate of December for now, but if production continues at this pace, there's a good chance these could start shipping sooner than expected. No promises just yet—but we're cautiously optimistic!

We'll continue sharing updates and photos as we receive them. In the meantime, enjoy these latest progress shots and let us know what you think (we know the skin tones look very different in these, but we believe a lot of that is a result of lighting - the second image should be more accurate to skin tones).
