Phew! It took a lot longer than I anticipated to get to the end of this chapter, because of my little illustrating side job (which is still going on, in case anyone’s wondering – in fact I have a couple of big deadlines coming up, so the next update probably won’t be till December March), but finally we’re here. I think I’ll stick to the digital drawing for the foreseeable future, it’s just sooo much faster… but I do plan to experiment with some changes in chapter 3, so like our friend Dong Zhou, I’m looking forward to the next chapter, hopefully my efforts will pan out better than his 
Best wishes on your impending deadlines… gotta pay the rent after all! But here is to hoping that you will return to the Middle Kingdom soon… after all, with Boston winters, you just might find a lot of in door time on your hands… with a hot mug of scotch infused coffee or hot cocoa… and Three Kingdoms on your mind!
Thanks vonbek… nothing beats hot cocoa in a Boston winter, scotch infused or otherwise. In fact I believe I’ll go have me some right now
Just stopped by to drop you wishes for a good Holiday… stay warm! also, in case you are looking for a new webcomic to read, i ran across this and was hooked: http://www.space-mullet.com/

Thanks Vonbek, looks like we’re gonna have another snow-less Christmas this year, which is just fine by me
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you too!!
