oh nono, don't feel guilty -- i originally wanted to do both chapters, remember? i am just whining because i have to fight my desire to translate. :) i am doing these up to a higher standard than needed because i like the practice. and because, if hochuuami doesn't continue to work on this, i will eventually attempt the translation myself, and the scans might as well be up to snuff then.

i want to join a scanlation group as an editor, and the more of this stuff i do, and the faster i get at it, the better it is. hey, at least these are not GREEN -- the worst raws i've seen lately were those of the latest viewfinder chapter taken with a digicam; i practiced on some of those too.

gutter shadows are hard to fix -- you basically need to do graduated masks and then level something like 5-10 pixel strips at a time, moving or contracting the mask after each levelling.
