Description On tumblr

Let's assume the comic says it all for me. There's a funny story to go with it - I have absolutely no idea what the original comic was about XD Maybe something along these lines, maybe not. It was sketched over a year ago and words got lost somewhere. So hey, have some drama. That I had to ruin coz why the hell not.

Also, can you help me out guys? I need your feedback with lettering. Is this even legible? I hope so. At the moment I don't have a program that allows fonts, but I was thinking of changing the way I letter my comics anyway. Thoughts? Advice? Tell me what you think. Except that I'm a bad person and I should post more - that I am already aware of.

OMG it feels so good to be back ;____; I didn't realize how much I needed this. Out of the well of self-pity, out! Off to draw some more : D

Between then and now, I sort of stopped wishing it to make sense. It's AC, that ain't gonna change. Wasted energy, pondering that - so, let us take those lessons, and use them when we will.

oh this depate was in general not only Assassin's Creed. There are lot of games where you kill "innocent" People only because they are doing their jobs. And these People also might have their virtual lives and families.

This is what happens when you think about what you're doing in a video game. But then you remember it's a game and stab a civilian for no particular reason.

That is basically how I spend my time in Assassin's Creed. Did you know in Black Flag, you can push people off the docks? Some will drown, especially the old men....

I'd be in Altair's place. The Assassins fight and kill so that we may be free. To make our own choices and decide our own fates. The Templars want to take that away from us. I'd be an Assassin to fight for freedom but I would have a difficult time coming to terms with killing the guards. I know that there are times that I have to so I can get to the Templar but I would take no joy in killing them.

As the second part of the Creed goes:"to say eveything is permited,is to understand that we are the architects of our actions,and that we must live with their concequences,whether glorius or tragic"

I understand that I am accountable for all my actions. I'm a religious person and that is how I live my life. Still taking someone's life, even in war, is never an easy thing to do.

Altaïr has a point. The Assassins and Templars have killed guards and grunts that don't even have a place in the secret war of the two factions. With family, lives, or just doing their job. With that much blood on your hands it's a wonder how they can stay sane. Or that they can even sleep. I'd be doing what Altaïr is doing now if I were in his place.

Your writing is mostly legible. There's the odd word that i have trouble reading (i.e. hangover in this comic), but it sort of adds to the unique charm and organic feel of your work. If you really want to add text, i can recommend a reasonably cheap drawing software. Manga Studio 5 is about £27/ zł137 on Amazon.

Thank you, dear  As for how... lots of practise? I don't know, it's hard to explain just like that xD I just... draw. The program used is Paint Tool SAI. It's pretty neat - especially for clean lines. Thank you, I'm definitely not stopping anytime soon!

YoshiKyubi [2014-06-07 23:47:26 +0000 UTC]

The message is great. When I was playing the games, I kinda did enjoy to kill the "bad guys" but I also thought about that. Does killing bad persons make you a good person? It´s still taking a life away...


So, as always, it is a great comic. I like your style and the lettering is fine! It looks way more alive than the lettering with... computer-generated, always-looking-the-same letters.
I could read it, but some letters were difficult to read at first sight.
Your w and m look similar, especially when they´re at the beginning of a word, e.g. "wall", "many" and "wrong". The m was better written in the last panel.

It shouldn´t keep you from lettering the text like you did here, I just wanted to give you a little advice - because I read "mall" instead of "wall" at first and I was like "The f*ck? Malik had a mall? Did I miss something in history or the game??? ... oh it´s WALL! I´m stupid. ;w; "

But that could be me only, I suck at reading most people´s hand-written notes... ._."

Thanks a lot for feedback! And haha no, it's not you. I'm just an unfortunate person with terrible handwriting xD (Can't even read myself sometimes. Most of the time.) So damn ironic, given the fact one might call me "artistically talented". Never could make anyhthing look proper... ehh, so we're back to primary school XD I'll just take things slow then.

But talented doesn´t mean you´re perfect in everything. ;3

I guess that your handwriting will be better if you write slowly, I agree. I´ll see that the next time you do that.
