Locoma on Sept. 6, 2007
HA! No I'm not skipping this week's update!
It's just that it's been a while since I drew those two, and I have to get used to this hybrid technique which I'm working on. So there! at least I have the next 5 almost scripted
~ Replies ~
(all): boy I'm glad to see you all reading this, because… it's getting closer to its end :D (well… not the end, but the final part, which will last a couple of months)
2ndwind: hehe, well I've been doing Locoma in pencil since it started and I wanted to try other alternatives. Changing styles is not that hard really, but you're right, they take time. Both watercolors and colored pencils took me twice the time (or more) than regular pencils. Manga took time too, but because I had to search for textures and learn how to use them.
darkpower: thanks man! not as awesome as you suddenly appearing as God in Pixel Plumbers but thanks, hahaha.
BitPlayer:where's my queen donut goddess? :'( It's great that you're updating again though :D
frogman:D thanks frogfriend! I'm glad you liked it, man. I was thinking on trying some american comic style, but that looks really hard and would take a lot of time. Maybe someday.
darrell: thanks man!
tweebus: hehe well, as I told you, Locoma has an end. I plan to end it by the end of the year. I have the entire plot written and we're getting closer with each update. After that I'm planning on starting something… I won't stop doing comics in here, not at all, so I will consider all my alternatives. :D
usedvickybooks: If I could kill advertising I wouln't doubt it even for a second >:D Anyway, since my story isn't placed in real life, killing is not something definitive… except for Mark and Paula of course. They are “real” people.
tantz:hehe thanks tantz! the whole update was planned to show that these three can disagree but still work on something as a group. The first three Locomas from 20 updates ago have a lot to learn from them. The first Locoma team represented basic feelings like anger or fear… I wonder if I was more angry or scared back then.

Stinking wow. I mean I have a hard time keeping my characters recognizable in a single technique. Your ability to shift techniques while keeping character integrity is simply amazing. Technique-shifter.

By the way, that is a very interesting analysis you did (just read the notes). I would certainly not dismiss this insight at all if I were you :) Once more well done, on two takes now ;)

Yay! I was missing these two! And so intimate and easy with each other already. That's great and you depicted it very well indeed! And I absolutely LOVE the way you draw bed hair. It's something I always struggle with. Well done!

Another great page. Beautiful colouring.

Awe. Paula's so cute on this page. I love the color and everything (as usual). The window is cool. Glass is so hard to draw, imo. I've actually killed quite a few characters recently (um, spoiler? lol), but I cry like an idiot when I write those scenes, and it sucks to lose them from "the world" after I put effort into their development. :-/ (I wouldn't shed a tear for the loss of ads, though. lol)

Dude, the stuff you churn out is way better than a lot of art in American comics anyway. I like Paula's green undies too. Totally hawt. :D
