I've pretty much plateau'd for the time being. My second job gave me some more responsibilities to take on. I can no longer give a precise date for completion (not like I've been able to meet deadlines thus far or anything ...) and I'm sorry about that, truly, because I believe in this project.
Well, the entire story is outlined in the blog entry, and I listed the characters needed in the Art thread on this subject. I guess that's the extent of my contributions for the time being. Again, I apologize, but I feel I'd rather just say "can't do it right now" then give you yet another deadline that I might not be able to meet.
