Hey, all!

Sorry for the late update, as you know I've been busy and Drunk Duck was down this morning. Anyway, I'm not certain about the shading on today's strip. I shaded Milo's clothes, and so shaded the girl's clothes a little, but I felt like this strip looked much better with less shading and so left their heads alone. I need some critiquing. Does the shading work here or is it flawed? Also, I'm now noticing that maybe those clouds should be as equally blurry as the grassy ground in the background…?

Just as a heads up, I may repeat the line-art only on Tuesday followed by the colored version on Thursday routine as I'm too busy with my college work right now to focus on the comic. Also, I've been asked the do the cover to an upcoming Star Trek fan magazine, so I need to meet that deadline. Don't worry, I'll return to two strips per week as early as March 4th once one of my classes has finished.
