Part 7 page 42

Page description:
Looks like Ace's mech is dead on its feet. Pinky charges towards him in her tiger Tromper, down the slope and up towards him to get in close enough for her weapons to get a sure strike. Meanwhile Ace recovers- since all that really happened was that shrapnel from the exploding rocket and rocks and sand smashed the cockpit glass and filled the Tromper with smoke, mess, and noise, momentarily stunning Ace, but he was protected from any real injury by internal shielding. He recovers hi sense in time to see her charging. He then turns his Tromper and fires off a volley of rockets so he can escape. Pinky's mech is hit and her charge is abruptly halted.
Commentary:
Long wait for this one. It didn't really take a long time to colour or draw though… not comparatively anyway, it was just that preparations for going to San Diego Comic Con 2011 and my 4 week US holiday got in the way… then there was recovery time afterwards.
Anyway, I talk a bit about my time at Comic Con on this week's Quackcast: http://www.drunkduck.com/quackcast/
At Comic Con my friend Bianka was kind enough to cosplay Pinky TA to try and help promote Pinky TA the webcomic! She looked pretty good -Pinky brought to life- you can see a gallery of pics of her and comic con people here: http://goo.gl/9gvlx

That is a fabulous cosplay! Oh, and a fabulous and action-packed page, too. I'm so envious you got to go to the con. I'll have to take the time and listen to your report, so I can go to comic-con vicariously!

Thanks guys! @ Gillsing- you got it! That was a pretty hard smash she got. Hopefully I won't take too long with the next page so you can see the results! @Tantz Aerine -Unfortunately no :( Bianka was pretty modest about it. Originally she was going to wear tights... but we had trouble with those so she did without, which looked more authentic. But for the back she had a piece of cotton that acted as a flap covering her bum so no one could see. Even so most of the time the coat covered her bum anyway. And deferring to her modesty (as a gentleman should) I didn't take any bum pics. Maybe I'll ask her to dress up again one day and see if she'll do at least one pic of that then. Just to get that classic Pinky angle! ^_^

I can't help wondering if there is a picture of her back... exactly because she's so successful in portraying Pinky.

That's some great cosplaying! And poor Pinky. Looks like she got hit worse than Ace. I mean, that's a direct hit, isn't it?
