Part 7 page 16

Page description:
The Buccaneer Slams into the side of the steamer and obliterates it, steaming off and leaving the survivors to their own fate. Then Ace an Pinks have a little chat- what's happened has galvanised her to side with him, even though she still doesn't trust him.
Commentary:
Three weeks late on this one, that's one week better than before. Still pretty bad though I admit. I'll also admit that I rushed this one in the colour stage. You can see that in the figures. They have a touch of cell shading! I found I actually liked that effect.
Vote
Using the BCX button, to see all those lovely ships and sea without the ugly speech bubbles.
And vote using the Top Web comics button to spot the big mistake in the page that was fixed by the time I did the colour version.
BTW, that's for all the great comments. I always appreciate them :D

ââ¬ÅThe ships hung in the sky in much the same way that bricks don't.ââ¬Â Amazing layout...

Awe-fucking-some.... I loved the first panel... looks very hardcore. Man, I feel happy for the sharks. This is like an early version for Sharks' Xmas gifts. Awww... Pinky is all hot and emotional... :p

I like the slight bit of cell to it too. It looks great when you think of the contrast it adds. Good for a tense discussion!

WOW! Awesome awesome! THis is some of the best art you have ever done, and that's saying a lot! ~B

Untrustworthy or not, I still like Ace. And I see...stubble! XP

Ahh, a mercenary, living by the code of the almighty dollar, a rebel without a country or something like that.

Thanks for the comments guys! Very much appreciated! ^_^ To answer Alej: Yeah, it sort of took the whole time...It was a big rush to get it ready in the first week, and I was all done up to and including the ocean. All BGS were done! But then I got fidly with the ships. The trouble is that once you're already past a deadline, things don't feel so urgent any longer so you feel compelled to take ages over certain things and redo line art in places over and over. It's a curse.

Finally, a new Pinky page... I love the last two panels. "I don't care!"

America is neutral? Ah, they'll get their act together eventually. Sometimes it just takes 'em a while!

A work of art that crash sequence! It's beautiful and powerful, man. In fact, this whole page is really strong. Very emotional. So did this actually take you a full 3 weeks to work on or were you just lazily putting it off? ^_^
