I've still got a hundred or so illustrations to do for <b><i>Varinka</i></b>, but I skipped back to the beginning to make this little teaser for it. Now I think I'll work backward from the last frame, just so I can tell myself I've made some progress. This darned thing is just taking forever. <br /> <object width="425" height="350"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/KEBzeoFZlVs" /><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/KEBzeoFZlVs" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="425" height="350"></embed></object><br /><a href="http://youtube.com/watch?v=KEBzeoFZlVs" target="_blank">Link</a><br />

I'd been starting to wonder... <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/eusa_think.gif" alt="" /> <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/wink.gif" alt="" />

Nice work with the teaser.

Because of possible copyright problems involving images I that use in backgrounds, I'm going to have to re-render about 100 panels. But since I kept all the .pz3 fles that won't be anywhere near as much work as starting from stratch.

We wouldn't have any music if all the birds that inspired musicians would call for the lawyer <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/rolleyes.gif" alt="" />

I only realized that the balalaika solo I used on this other sample from Varinka <br /> <br /> <object width="425" height="350"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/9MB7_24tv2M" /><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/9MB7_24tv2M" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="425" height="350"></embed></object><br /><a href="http://youtube.com/watch?v=9MB7_24tv2M" target="_blank">Link</a><br /> <br /> <br /> was available for use only under a non-commercial Creative Commons license after I'd already put it up on youtube. I don't plan to make any money on the completed video, but <b>do</b> intend to use that to find a film maker who'd be interested in buying the story (yeah I know, that's a longshot...) so in a sense that <b>would</b> be commercial use. So I looked up the musician, found him on a antiques collecting forum and sent him a PM explaining what I needed his music for. Within a couple hours he got back to me and said my use of it was fine with him. So it all worked out. Keeping track of all the music and 3-d props I used so I can give the creators all credit at the end will be something of a task. My concern about the images that I'm reworking the pages for involved their being covers of Sports Illustrated, Cosmo and Maxim magazines, and the logo of Baltika beer, a popular brand in Russia, and I didn't want to create problems that could cause youtube to take down my video. Big corporations have deep pockets for litigation, and I'm just a step away from homelessness.

Great work, and a good playing by Posy.
