Yes! Second met update in a row! HA! Gosh, everything is so much easier with Kelly doing the coloring! Oh, did I mention that she does all of her coloring with a mouse?! I am not kidding.
One really, really nice thing about this whole arrangement is, not only do I get Kelly's awesome colors gracing my lineart, but it gives me more time to put more effort and details into the pages. Now, I'm trying not to make it TOO detailed for Kelly's sake, but this week I actually managed to get some shading into that last panel. …not that you can see it much. To be honest, it's been painful to add the dialogue to each page because it covers up the great job Kelly has done on some of the details… I might actually start a new gallery in the Extras section dedicated just to pages without dialogue, so that you can see what I see when I'm done with them.
Or rather, when Kelly's done with them.
Some of you may have noticed that I still haven't gotten around to that Links page yet. Sorry. But I have gotten banners from nearly every site I'm going to link. I just need to spend about two hours to fill out every category I've created, as well as add a few link buttons for 1Q itself. …Can't forget that.
Gosh, nothing really new happened this week. I got hit on by an 18 year old (who's been dubbed “Hairy Perry” by my sister) last Saturday while I was walking around the neighborhood yard sale looking for a desk chair (for that awesome desk I mentioned last week). I ended up giving him my number (but only because he gave me an “I Am Legend” poster for free, which I'm giving to a friend of mine). I was hoping he'd give me a call and invite me somewhere, thus giving my social life around here a little boost, but so far it hasn't happened. I guess he was scared because I'm… gosh, well I'm 20, and that's old.
Oh! And hopefully I'll be getting a call from a nearby movie theater with a job offer. I applied the other day.
….WANNA JOOOOOOOB…. D:
Be sure to drop Kelly a note telling her what a great job she's doing! I couldn't be doing this without her! Also, be sure to wish her luck on her job interview. I hope she nails it!
…But of course she will. What am I saying?
Cheeko out.

Thanks Jan for the coloring. I understand how it feels to mouse color. XP eee! For the links, if you're interested in a link exchange Cheeko I'm all for it.

OBJECTION! Hairy Peiry's strength must be less than or equal to my own, so that I may intimidate him. Nice comic though. P.S. I don't know if you have heard, but Coldplay is releasing a brand new album called Viva la Vida nex Tuesday. The cover song is the most beautiful song I have ever heard(made me cry). Google it and you can listen to it. Having fun up thar? Good luck with the job!

I suppose this is one of those few instances when it's good to listen to the voice in your head. I just wished the voices in *my* head talked in blue bubbles and pretty fonts... -sigh- Beautiful page as always! ^_^

Tabitha: I agree to point but there is a difference between being momentarily over looked because you are hiding out of sight and a search party failing to find you because you hide under the bed after a little while searching. I mean the are on a roof top in full armor and some of them with only one hand free. I don't know about you but that would certainly slow me down when I was looking for someone and I just might want to focus my personally safty over how quickly I look around the other side of something. On the other hand they are comming awful close to tripping over him and it isn't like that is a crowded room full of stuff they would need to search. I just assume in cases like these it was a choice based on moving the story so you don't have large pages of soldiers searching crowded hard to draw cluttered roofs rather then just "asking" reading to give a little suspension of disbelief(SP).

how dim can you get... HEY BLUE HAIR! LOOK AROUND! I mean seriously, would it kill you to look? sheesh... not that I want Ranu found, it's just one of the silliest thing when people who are supposed to be trained professionals pull one of those... "whelp he's not in my direct line of sight... guess he's not here." no offense to your writing or story or layout or anything... it's just the cherry on top of a series of odd coincidental comics and movies where the bad guy just stands there. even this one movie where the hero's being hunted by this mercinary who's never lost a target and he gets away by hiding behind a barrel... i mean come on!... >End rant< on another note, this has to be really awkward for Ranu, having his body warped like that and still having to run from people who want to kill him not to mention the strange floaty blue voice in his head... i tell ya, i would've gone into the fetal position hours ago in his shoes (bare feet?)

I know exactly what you mean about lettering after someone else has worked on a page ([i]all[/i] the artwork in my case, not just the colouring!) I always feel guilty whenever I have to cover up even the smallest detail!

I love garage sales too but since I work friday and sleep saturday I rarely go anymore. Maybe I should start getting out of bed earlier? Seriously I understand your pain with text bubbles. Adding dialog sometimes kills like half a page. T_T If she knows everything would it really be IF he reaches the tower instead of when?

weird..... even MY next page is going to have ropes of flags in it....
