another week's update

Meh. Not a good week. I started the next page, but after struggling with it for days, I finally realized that it was all wrong. I'll have to start over. Which means that I had nothing to show you, so I drew you all a beautiful picture in paint.

Enjoy.

Upon receiving some feedback, I added the words "Jordan said" to page 93. It was implied that he was the one who said that, but maybe it was a little too subtle.

Now it should be more clear why the heroes are questioning Jordan's intelligence.

Happy weekend!

Yallo

Hi there. I has a page. Yay!

Yeppers, page number 2 done on the new computer, and everything is working great now. I'm experimenting with the shading again. I also decided everyone really ought to be a bit tanner. I know it's one of my weaknesses to color things too light, especially skin. Hopefully I'll get it eventually.

I know the dialogue might seem a bit confusing, but if you reread at least this page and this page, it should make enough sense. I'm trying to keep the plot flowing, so there's no room for a page of exposition to clear up who said what and when.

Anyway, good night all!

Yes, that means what you think it does . . . well, maybe.

But anyway, page is done!

My only comments on this page are that I was trying a new shading method, but I don't think I like it. Hmm. Back to the drawing board, I guess.

Oh yeah, and if you're like "what's up with the Blue Mage thing?" then go look at this page. It's not really that important right now, and I personally hate reading through a lot of exposition . . . so I'm just not going to explain anything. :D

Have a nice week!

weekly update? oops!

Hi all.  Yeah, I totally forgot to post anything last week.  Sorry!  But I am still alive (I think), and right now I am attempting to migrate my work over to a new computer.  Piece by piece.  It takes a surprisingly long time to personalize and set up a new computer.  So many things I took for granted.  Like fonts.


But anyway, work on page 102 is progressing.  I can't say if it will be done this week, although I would definitely like it to be.  I have some high-stress events coming up this week, and I know from experience that such things sap my creative will until they're over with.

To all of you in school as well, good luck to you!  I hope you all have a lovely week!

And by way of distraction, have you all seen this yet?  So funny!  Draco likes hamsters . . .

Don't die of shock now

I actually updated with a new page!

Yeah, my schedule is still murderous.  And I know the plot is not very satisfactory at such a snail's pace.  But hey -- I figure once a month updates are better than no updates.  And no, I have no idea how long it will take me to get the next page done.  I have the plot planned about 100 pages ahead, and I have sketches of the next 10 pages, so writer's block is not going to be an issue.

I didn't check references, but I was thinking of Grand Train and one of Magus's attacks when I drew Gerkie's spell, if you care.  Triangles of Doom!  Mwahahaha!

this week's update

Gaaaaaah!  I haven't even had time to do my homework this week!  Luckily, recruiting doesn't last all semester, but next week is going to be really brutal, since assignments are coming due.

Also, I have spent most of my (little) leisure/sleep time attempting to debug this computer's failure to connect to the network.  The fact that I'm posting now proves my success.  I don't know what caused the problem in the first place, though iTunes is my prime suspect.

If I don't draw something soon, I'm going to spontaneously combust. It's not happening tonight, though, as I need to get some sleep.

Hopefully I'll have something more satisfying to post soon.
