Chapter 2.5
Krae on Aug. 14, 2006
Back to color, because actually doing it is the only way to get any better.
I see improvement. Major improvement. Just look at some of my first pages! (wait, no! don't!)
I see some iffy parts, but I really like this page. I mean, LOOK! Backgrounds in every panel! I didn't think I could manage for a while, but I pulled through.^^
Why a whole page dedicated to an embarrasing moment? I think charecter development is one of the best things a comic can have. I'm not overly fond of super-fast-paced stories where the main charecter exists only to… well, bash things.
response!
Kaminari - My DD alerter thingie is all screwey at the moment, is that what is happening to yours?
Moonelfchick - I have yet to poke someone…
Darkest1 - Yes, Gad is the mastermind theif behind it all, bwahaha. You have a char. named Aiden? There can be only one, I challenge you 0__o;;;
Ironwolf - I liked the ‘loom’, too. It's a nice sound effect :)
Br4nzilla - no.. greyscale BAD. Well, not for you. You don't count :D
Krae - hush up, Krae. Nobody wants to listen to you!
Mina Lunga - It's true he isn't really human, so his proportions can be whatever my little mind desires! Plus, he IS big mouth. His personality must have manifested itself as a actual physical trait.
I decided to use greys because I thought I could get away with more, but alas. I was wrong.
Jenshin - I think I should have taken your advice and used more black, but thank you :)

Hahaha, momma's boy.....well that's an odd sound he's making in pannel 7, ain't it? You're right, you have gotten better....this page is real good, and look, backgrounds! Aw.....but my Aiden has a bunch of guns and his girlfriend is the rising antichrist of the demon realm! And he has a cool Chinese outfit!

ooh, you're right, this page looks fantastic. There's always time to embarrass your characters, plot can wait.

Great page! Love the color! I'll answer for Dark 'cause she went on vacation! I think she would accept you challenge cause she's like that!

Backgrounds! Color! Expression! Humor! WahOOO! And a stone building with completely incorrect stonework. That wall wouldn't hold up! Stone walls are laid with the flatter surface up, thinner surface down, usually in a two against three pattern. When the stone is unworked, like here, you can pretend that they're boulders and thus the pattern almost works - except that you have too much masonry between them for them to be boulders. The weight of the stone as they were set in place would have squished it all out, and anyway stones that size wouldn't need mortar at all except to seal chinks. Flat side out (paver-set) gives no structural integrity and ends up just being stone wallpaper over a block or wood frame wall. Something that wasn't done until about 1925 in our world. . . Sorry. Masons in the family. The page IS really good and fun! I just got carried away. Heck, I screw up my own stone walls more than often enough. . .

yep, I hardly ever get notices from the alerter, but actually what I meant was it did not show as updated on my list but I had clicked on it anyways and noticed it was a new page, lol. and I must concur with everyone on the color lovin' The backgrounds are very nice too.. They provide a great countryside atmosphere.

.. DD is scaring me. It randomly logged me in as my sister? Anyways.. that last post was me! Ahem. I like this page! Greyscale is crap, so don't do it. ( contradiction? yes. i love your colors! ) This setting appeals to my love of earthy tones and things, so my fancy is totally being tickled right now. ( i'm in love with the second panel for some reason. o_O ) Elf-boy has a great personality. He's becoming one of my faves. And aiden's face in the last panel is so great. So cute and boyish. Glee.

IronWolf at 11:28PM, Aug. 14, 2006
You know this already, but I LOVE Gad's expressions her. Taylor, how come you keep saying you're no good with expressions? Seriously, Gad's face cracks me up every time.In the best possible way.

My DDAlerter is dead too, it sucks I'm missing comic updates. Love the color still, it's nice and nuetral, but things don't get lost in eachother.
