These pages are glorious! Could you tell us a bit more what went wrong with the screentones in the proof of book 1, and how you solved it? Maybe in an other newsletter? :)

I'm unsure if I have detailed it or not, but I certainly can tell in a future newsletter. In short, what happened was that I re-sized the pages AFTER finishing the screen tones. You must always do it BEFORE.

Oh man. Everything is looking absolutely gorgeous. Got a nice sneak peek of the Phenomena Book Two cover as a Phenomena-level subscriber to Bendis’s Substack. It’s BREATHTAKING. Can’t wait for this book!
