Whether that's roughing it in ahead of the rest of a piece, putting in cardboard placeholders, or just creating the bits you have full clarity of whole, getting what you know down first is a great way to sort out the shape of the rest. Sometimes process needs to be ignored to be actually done.

Actually, given the mass of scoped SVT-40s that places the manga (or at least the splash art) in the immediate period after the Finnish Winter War and the end of Stalingrad (1943), I think they'd be called The Girl Anachronism (Fuck you, Amanda Palmer, it's ours now)

god, we as a country are such marks for cultural and commercial imports, so long as it's wrapped the flavour of our kind of parochialism.

The confluence of this and the current discourse with authors on here with people trying to make it leftist virtue to pirate ebooks "because the third-world exists means I am morally justified" "authors and artists are all the bougoisie as a class" really shows what's mostly going on here.
