06 - Neodammerung

As I upload this page it's 2:30 am. I'm too tired to write full comments. I'll do that tomorrow.

Shut up, at least it's not a filler.


Ok up and awake now, so here's the deal. I got home really late last night, after a long day, nearing total exhaustion, but I still had to do todays comic.
I've actually said ‘Fuck it, I’ll do a filler' at one point during the evening, but in the end I couldn't so I did a fullblown comic.
I know it's not an excuse or anything, but at least it's an explanation for the cheesy dialogue and the sudden intensity of Neo's revenge (I know Me-me, I know…) Concerning the knowledge of eachothers names, it's logical that Neo and Arthur know eachother, since they've been travelling together. Grak would know Neo's name because he was sent to kill them, so the Emperor will've given him the names of his targets.

Basically, I just had the last panel in mind, and I needed to conjure up something leading to that panel. At 1am I'm not very good at conjuring. Hell, I'm actually glad it turned out as it did… The most important thing about this comic though is that I learned alot about editing sprites. I had to add the drill to Grak's arm in almost every pose, plus some facial expressions on Neo. All in all I'm pretty content with todays update, even though it's a bit cheesy. I'll try to make up for it tomorrow.
