Description
  • The Grand ASHWORTH Fortune: Volume 01, Chapter 03 - Expect The Unexpected
    (edited on 24th April 2008)

  • Format: Western, reading from LEFT to RIGHT


    Hi again everyone! ^^

    I'm currently going to take responsibility in making sure that people have the option of not only being able to buy my comic from the official Local Act Comics store front but also from my own DA account or website.

    I'm currently researching on alternate payment methods such as bank cheques (checks in the United States ^_~) and money orders but I still find that PayPal is the most cost efficient option out of the lot (you avoid all the unnecessary fees altogether!).


    My older brother showed me a pretty cool CSS presentation website that shared a bunch of nice CSS templates to use as a reference. He also showed me a brilliant server that will give you 60MB for free. With these things taken into account I'll probably set up an official The Grand ASHWORTH Fortune website during the weekend. ^^

    Anyway once I'm done sending my comic book to relatives and friends I'll be sure to let the rest of you know on how to order a copy directly from me. I'll be adding something extra into the order as a way of saying 'thanks'. You can have the book signed if you wish also!


    Alrighty this page is an absolute stunner for me. ^^ I really like how I was able to shade like the official manga style! ^^ Though I've much more to improve I believe that I'll be able to achieve industry standards with every new page created from today after! = )


    Thanks once again everyone for your love and support on the cartoon series!!! It means a lot to know that you'll be getting a copy of my very first book!

    woah, now you are even preparing to get an official and own website to your comic? respect!!! I could also need one for "Eternal Purity", to be honest. I don't believe that showing it here on DA only will make it much more known.
    anyways, I totally like the idea of the possibility to get a copy from you! really good idea! ^^

    xD Poor Ruby...getting yourself into trouble once again...She certainly doesn't look happy in that last panel! That guard might wanna watch out...The shading is amazing once again! It just keeps looking more and more official. And Ruby's expression...xD Very manga typical, as *Remain-Kun stated. Overall, it's getting better and better!

    "Though I've much more to improve I believe that I'll be able to achieve industry standards with every new page created from today after!"

    I've already seen improvement with each new page that comes out! You've done a lot to get as far as you have so far, and it never ceases to impress me. Hm...I think you draw comics probably as constant as Sonic the Hedgehog runs! But in all serious-ness, you do seem to work long and hard at the Ashworth series, and without giving up! I just know the series is gonna be a big hit around the world someday, especially with the fanbase it already has online! ^_^

    And you can probably bet I've been anxious to buy the first book for some time now... But ordering directly from you? And having the book with your autograph?

    Yes that is most possible to order a copy from yours truly and having it signed. = ) Full details on this will be available when the official website is launched this coming week. ^^

    Thanks a bunch for the lovely feedback as always Stephie! I really appreciate it!

    Awsome! I can't wait to get my hands on all the grand ashworth fortune books! So can everyone buy the first book from you signed and stuff if they want and would that cost extra money?
    Keep up the good work Darkspeeds! You'r da man! xD

    Why would I want to add extra cost to adding a signature? XXD It's the least I can do to say thanks to each and every person who buys my book. Heck I may throw in something a little extra in every package I send to overseas. Be sure to check for full details when I launch the official website. *thumbs up*

    darkspeeds In reply to ellathedragon [2007-10-19 11:20:00 +0000 UTC]

    I'm currently doing research on alternative payment methods other than Paypal but to be honest Paypal is definetly the cost effective option available. For example if you guys do a money order for me you would probably hook up an extra $4-5 in fees just to send me money. I want to keep the cost as low as possible for my readers.

    Nevertheless if you're ready to get yourself a copy I'm more than willing to organise something and send you my new print copies provided that you have Paypal (I had just finished setting up my account! XD).

    Let me know what you think ellathedragon. ^_~

    This page definitely looks different and shaded a lot more. I like it!

    And I have nothing to grammatize on this page. Which is a really good thing.

    Ooo, I can't wait until the website is up. Thats definitely going in my bookmarks.

    A website? Wow,that'll be cool,I bet! I guess the site will become my favourite. I can just agree with Ana. You're doing so much thing for us I dunno how to thank you. I think Paypal will be the best way to pay the comic but I hope there'll be other ways because I don't have a Paypal Account and I want the book so badly. x3 With an autograph? Oh damn sure,I want one!

    The shading on this page looks awesome. On each page your style looks more and more like it comes out of a manga. I'm really impressed! Ruby's expression when she is founded is really manga typical. I can't wait to see how she will react excatly. ^^

    SoftKeychains [2007-10-18 19:01:42 +0000 UTC]

    No doubts that pages is getting manga style closer^^
    The panel where Ruby appears is a strong point, with her figure showing out of the panel, like a reference in manga! Lol, faceยดs expressions rocks!
    A website is an excelent idea! I have one blog about CT (aka: Cursed Tails, XD) but is 100% in portuguese^^U
    Oh boy, you are working so much to give us more ways to get your book without paypal....really, thank you. Then I can buy it without restrictions or problems!
    See ya!
