Well, I was over at the Strand last night, so I went hunting for some legitimate sources of information on Mayan and Aztec sculpture. I didn't come across any really good books on the Aztec, but I did find this:

Which is basically really awesome. Like I told Streaky, if I'm gonna be drawing Aztec and Mayan inspired mecha, I'd better do it right.

But seriously. I hadn't really given mesoamerican art much thought other than their twisting turning decorative designs, but their figurative sculpture is freaking amazing. Their postures and faces are extremely telling and expressive... more than I'd ever have thought if I didn't bother to research it.

I also paid a visit to the Central American section of the Met today and took lots of photos. I recognized several of the pieces from the book, and was more excited than I thought I'd be to see them IRL.

At any rate, that's about it. I've been busy drawing lots of extra pages for AP to make the story... existent, and that's 4 in total. I'm also working on refining my coloring technique, so... yeah. That too.
