Chapter One Page 22
D0m on Sept. 29, 2007
This is the most down-to-earth page I've produced asof yet. I like how the colors came out in the end. Much like the night scenes, though, I'll improve in my coloring sooner or later. You guys can start wondering officially what a ‘Reborn’ is, now.=P
Please give me your thoughts on this page. And vote! Vote so Nadya can elbow her way back into the top 10 someday!!!

Whoa! Was she dead all that time?

For a painted scene, the background falls a bit flat. It looks like you were thinking Van Gogh but didn't quite get there. You didn't use either line thickness, line density, or colors to create any illusion of depth. I don't think the last 2 panels needed to be separated. It feels as if the last 2 panels are too cramped. Especially since the last balloons are black, they didn't need to obey the line boundaries at all.

Absolutely Gorgeous world as always. I hope this new land is as bright and cheery as the other was dark and gloomy :) Love your work as always.

This comic has always looked great to me, but the panels always seem stretched vertically. I did a quick edit in MessPaint and it looked much better with about a 75% vertical aspect ratio. Is this an anomaly or just your sense of proportion? Also, great coloring, it looks very 3D.

Nice as always. It almost looks like a figure outline in the first panel across the stream. Hmm..

whoa! change of scene...I started to think, this is the first real change in scenery...but then I remembered those people in the Ice Cavern? Interesting...

Yay for greenery!

Oh, awesome!

You WERE dead? That's so cool. Love your coloring and story!

You continue to run circles around me with colors!

I love the effect on Charna's speech bubbles the nice change of pace that is this page. The rendering of the background makes it a little difficult to make out what I'm looking at (trees or mountains?), but that's a rare lack of clarity in this otherwise well-done story.

I could have sworn I commented earlier...oh well. Great page, Charna does look really creepy out in the daylight. A great contrast to when she blended with darker environments. I also like the clouds and the mountains, the shading on them is detailed very well.

Trust Charna for a cryptic, yet matter of fact answer. Nice work as always. And I agree with Talekyn (largely because I actually know him) some characters should keep to the shadows.

i can see it on my monitor finally! great work, dom.
silentkitty at 8:18AM, Sept. 30, 2007
Looks great, Dom. I liked the darker pages, but it's nice to finally be out in daylight again, hehe. Really nice work, looking forward to more~ ^^

Talekyn- It's good to know Charna looked semi-believable in the daylight! Thanks! Dangerfunk- Not too sure, actually! I want to stick to the style I nailed in page 13 as close as I can. Hyp- Thanks! :-3 Tantz Aerine- Yeah, I think Nadya is finally toning down... (Or IS she? ) BLNT- Thanks- I hope so! DAJB- All will be explained in time, friend. TheMidge28- The Reborn is what Nadya will be centered around, as long as the comic runs. You'll find out in due time all you need to know. :-)
TheMidge28 at 5:55AM, Sept. 30, 2007
love the change of scenery...what is this about being one of the reborn...I am so intrigued. So this is what Charna had to transform into?
DAJB at 2:53AM, Sept. 30, 2007
One of the reborn ... she's right - not simple at all!
blntmaker at 2:22AM, Sept. 30, 2007
WHOA. Color? Brightness? We see the shadowy Charna has a bit more definition... Nice coloring still, D0m. Once you get an eye for how you want to shade and shadow, I think you'll be right where you want to be with your art and page production!

I really like the landscape :) It looks like it's some Mediterranean island's inland (honestly, that's more or less the feel you get unless it's the resplendent in greenery islands). I also like the lighting. It is very uplifting. And oh goodness! Is that dialogue without attitude from Nadya we hear in the last two panels? Now that's a change ;)
