AAAGGGHHH!!!! That hand was a nightmare to draw!!!! >_< It's still not as good as I'd like...I don't think it's just me, I really do think little schoolgirl flashback Rekki looks even scarier than older Rekki! As with many pages I thought through the dialogue, and changed it when I came to writing it, sometimes what I concieve in my head just doesn't come out right written down, or sometimes the characters' faces give you a different feeling to what you had expected. The way the dialogue came out finally, you feel more sorry for Sol. He's pretty much met his childhood nightmare!
In lots of stuff, inexplicably the characters will all have the same hairstyles in flashbacks, I thought it would be cool if since the flashback, Rekki has grown her hair long, while Sarin has cut her's short. (Yeah, I hope people can still work out that's Sarin at the back there despite the really different hair....well, she's the only character in the comic with a katana, so I'm sure you'll cope ^_^' ).

Yeah, Rekki's supposed to have this wierdly manic, scary look to her. The fact that apart from her expressions her face is actually quite cute, only seems to make her look even scarier! *laughs* My big sister glares like that when she's angry, that was where the idea to give Rekki green eyes came from ^_^'.

I can't draw with a mouse at all, so most of it I'll draw in pencil, then ink with a black fineliner and do the tones with grey copic markers. Some shading effects, and generally the colours are added on the computer, as are the speech bubbles from page eight onwards. (But the colour on the over page is done with just pencil crayons). Some pages I do use pencil for shade or texture. Basically I use whatever medium suits the effect and mood I want to put across.
