Wait a minute, someone else just submitted pages 9 and 10. Did something change? Last I knew, I was assigned to those.

Edit: looks like SUX got em! I think I asked, but it just wasnt confirmed. Still ended up added to the dropbox though, so I thought I was assigned to those by someone. Just making sure it was those two page sand not something else I'm forgetting.

Gah, we really need to keep our page assignment lists up to date! I hope you haven't already drawn the pages…?

If pit did draw those pages, it's alright to use those instead of mine.

I'm working on the pages for the issue after this one so it's no worry for me.

Both the print and web versions of my page are now uploaded to Dropbox. Sorry about my being a little rusty in drawing–I know I'm better than the smaller panels would attest. Could also be the angles in panels 2 and 3…

@cdmalcolm1: Great, thanks!

@shastab24: It's looking good! I really like the way you made the angles work.

How are you drawing Bones's outfit? I've drawn him in his standard outfit, while ShastaB24 has just drawn him topless under the dress.

If you've also gone with him in his standard outfit, we can assume he had a quick change of clothes with him. If you've drawn him the same way as ShastaB24, I'm going to have to tweak my page (if I can within the timeframe).

Thanks.

Continuity can get a little tricky when bouncing off several artists. I drew my page the way I did because he seemed to be topless under the dress in page 2.

So he does. And I drew him with clothes underneath the dress on page one.

At this point I think I'm just gonna not stress about it… xD

Did someone tint my page darker? :/

If that was necessary you could have let me know and I would have fixed it - the darkening really needs to go behind the muzzle flash. And if the light source is different I probably would have tweaked the shading a little too - made it starker.

I was wondering about that too - all I did was download the page from dropbox and upload it here. Will look into it when I'm back at my desktop PC.

If someone could help with the dimensions for the web print I'd appreciate it.

My original files got messed up so I'm gonna redraw my pages. I have the size for Print but not for Web.

Soon as I get the Web size I can start drawing and get these reworks done in no time flat. :D

Use the same proportions as for print.

On The Duck width over 950 pixels interferes with the layout. Anything up to that is fine and different people use different sizes. I usually use the whole 950 pixels but my pages tend have too much fine detail. Pages tend to be somewhere between 800 and 950 pixels wide. So for example 800x1067 or 825x1100 or 900x1200.

I uploaded the reworked pages, I tried my best to fit them to what you suggested irrevenant so hopefully they are better than before.

I'm not sure how big they were before but the proportions look good now to me.

I wonder if it would be worth creating a brief “Production Bible” for HA…

They were too small.

I use manga studio and it's pixels are way bigger than photoshop so maybe that's why stuff came off weird.

I originally posted this info in the “Design & consistency” thread. The basic idea is this: Have your page be 1.5 times as tall as it's wide. Pick 2100 px for your width, and you get the print size. Your original artwork should not be smaller than this size (so it won't be pixelated in print!). Resize it to roughly 900 px width and you get the web size.
