So… for this page I tried a watercolor technique (suggested on some buried forum somewhere) where you use LOTS of water and then have it sort of settle/dry, leaving the paint as a kind of sediment. Supposed to created interesting looks, but I can't see it, but one thing's for sure - using that much water made it all get away from me. Obviously such a trick isn't for works requiring lots of control (or for an artist with a somewhat lack of control haha).
Well, at least Kimber Lee isn't going to vivisected (yet!). And for those who might have gotten interested in this comic but don't feel like reading all the back pages, Jack Caleb (the money behind Synprovision, the company behind the Dream Research Kimber's been a part of) makes a reappearance. Wonder what he wants to talk about…?
Thanks for reading, everyone :)

I didn't really mind the story being in that nice sepia style but the colouring's really nice and certainly makes the pages look even more exciting.

I'm usually better at talking my way out of stuff in dreams than throwing inevitably ineffective punches.

Awesome bird's eye views in the first two panels. Those are hard. And hey - we ain't done Blitzkreigin' yet! XD

Thanks plymayer - I think I like the downplayed color better too. I got a couple upcoming pages where I tried more color and to me it looks pastel-ly; too bright and happy haha. Trying to keep to the subtle color for the most part.

Talking is always good. Really enjoying the subtle touch of color here and there.

Kimber Lee is a touch cookie, but sooner or later things have to go her way... right?

Wow, this really is sucking for Kimber is it? x.x I like her comment about not breathing xD

Well at least you don't need to worry about me being lost for a page or 2.

Thanks cres0055 that's some insight (about the pace of webcomics) I honestly hadn't thought about. I mean we all know, but it just never hit me this way. I'll keep that in mind and not worry too much if someone doesn't seem to 'get it' for a page or two. Thanks again :)

(In comment to the comment on the last page.) I guess being a better story teller may be something you want, but I think you should also realize that little things like what I thought are going to come up more because of the medium of webcomics rather than the actually quality of your story telling. In fact I think that reminding or clarifying things in the comment section is part of the format of the medium. Little things like thinking she was not dreaming clear themselves out over time. Really I would say that your writing is going to be more reflected in the consistency of the story rather than bluntly pointing out to readers hey guess what this happens and stuff. But your choice, so far I haven't seen anything to say that your writing is bad more just a fault with only reading a page 2-3 times a week means that 10 pages ago is like a month so people(like me) don't get as engrossed in the story as someone would who read it on paper(something most webcomics eventually choose to do.)

(Continued from above.)Anyways I have been enjoying the story so far and expect it to continue to be enjoying.
