Crimson Shadows Kickstarter

Hello Everyone,
I want to thank all of you for supporting my books and creativity in the past, and wanted to let you know about a new campaign, "Crimson Shadows". I am very proud to be the inker on this book and to be working with a fantastic creative team. This series starts out as a dark, horror series, but as the story unfolds over the course of many issues, we will have Jesus and Christianity become more of a focus as the main character (Julius) is desperate to save himself and eventually finds Christ as the answer he has been searching for.
With our minimum goal being only $2,800, we are happy to see we have passed the $1,000 mark in such a quick time. Can I ask a quick favor or two? 1) Please take a look at our campaign and consider backing our project, and 2) One of the most important factors in a crowdfunding campaign's success is when those who have backed the project, like you, SHARE the project to their social media pages so your friends and family have a chance to learn about "Crimson Shadows" as well. So PLEASE take a moment to share the project's link. If you want to copy and paste it, the link is https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/zambam17/crimson-shadows
Now that the Kickstarter is on it's way, I am getting back to work on finishing the issue. Here's the current progress of our book's completion:
Script - 100% Complete
Layouts - All 24 pages complete
Pencils - All 24 pages complete
Inks - All 24 pages complete
Colors - 17 pages completed, pages 18-22 are flatted and only need shading added, and pages 23 & 24 are about to be started.
Lettering - 12 pages complete, remaining pages waiting for colors to be completed
Covers - 5 of 6 covers are completed. 6th cover is penciled, inked and flatted - needing only some final touches.
As you can see, most stages of the book are fully completed and we estimate that we are about 90% to the finish line and well on track to fulfilling rewards in a timely manner.
