Description
Well, I'm trying a new method of coloring with this issue. The finished product doesn't really look different at all, but the process is way different than what I'm used to doing. In fact, this new method (which I'm being taught in my digital coloring class) shaved off probably close to 2 hours worth of coloring on this page!That, and I'm also going to start coloring in CMYK. I can't quite get the bright brights in that mode, but... oh well. I'm sure you won't notice Jarv- Miles' speech bubbles not being #00ff00.
Aand... uhm... well, if you want a looksie at the temporary cover, it's over at smackjeeves currently serving its purpose as a placeholder.
(So no one from here's going to NYAF?)

When I get around to working out the kinks in the first one, sure. ^^
The second one shouldn't pose problems, though.

Those plugs look kind of uncomfortable. The kremzeek figurine is neat
Poor Skyfire. Is his dad EVER home?
π: 0 β©: 1
He's a robot. It's probably something like... falling asleep with socks on. ^^
And I donno! I'll have to ask him.

*pokes Sky's mouth in the first panel* <3
i REALLY like how you draw mech hands...and i dont know why XD <3
π: 0 β©: 1
I liek to draw them expressively! D:
Quite unlike the canon comics, where they're usually there to help strike dramatic poses.
π: 0 β©: 1
Hah, the temp cover. XD
I wasn't sure who it was at first, but my mind seems to have settled on "Mirage doing the 'o3o' face".
Random Questions~!
-Do you like to just find places to stick Kremzeek? (Such as on Sky's shelf and in the corner of the the CTHS home page)
-And what does the K in CMYK stand for? Unless I went totally crazy RGB is Red Green Blue, and CMYK is Cyan Magenta Yellow and K-thing.
Aaaand, like everyone else, I must say..... AWWWW. LOOKIT SKY SLEEEEPIIIING.
π: 0 β©: 1
Ahh! That is NOT Mirage, actually! You'll just have to sit tight and out who they are.
Random Answers~!
- I do. :3
- K stands for black, actually.
DAWWWWWWW
π: 0 β©: 1
Not Mirage? And I can't know now?
D: Nooooo~
....Can I still call them Mirage doing the 'o3o' face until their name is announced?
Black? Seriously?
Damn, I never would've guessed that....

You'll find out in a few pages I swear! D:
And I guess you can if you really want to x3

I want my own personal Miles D: he seems awesome!

Wow, awesome to see the first part up! Great job with the new look and awe, Sky's sleeping! (snuggles in next to him) I just love the big guy and totally know what it feels like to have a dad that works all the time. ^_^ uber cool first start.
π: 0 β©: 1
Haha yeah, I know exactly how it feels too. xD

So much to love in this:
KREMZEEK!
And the way Sky's flopped on his belly - I'd kill to see that in real life... oh yeah - um Idoknowthatnoneofthisexists, really...
He seems more mature in this somehow - I dunno - something about his face (although we all look ten years older in the morning, eh!) But he's just more settled in his life, or something...
π: 0 β©: 1
I'd love to see any of this in real life. xDDDD
Yeah, I'd say settled... first day of school is always stressful.

Do I spy a Kremzeek clock?
Hmm, I love the shading. Period.
π: 0 β©: 1
Not a problem dudette.
π: 0 β©: 0
The change of coloring style has really paid off!
Especially how shading flows nicely from one color to another, and that it's a bit softer than previous one.
I enjoyed the first issue very much in every aspect, and this one also starts with a kick! Can't wait for more. 
Also Sky should stand in a booth with a slogan on it: "Expresssion: 25cents".

Good to hear you've got a colouring technique that speeds it up.
Yeah, CYMK doesn't do nice bright colours. Now if we had printers that did glowing ink however...
π: 0 β©: 1
Aaah, you CAN do that, but I ain't payin' extra for process ink colors. xDD

Get 'im while he's down! *tackles*
The Kremzeek is fake...right? 
OOO *goes to add you on lj*

WOO! It's so exciting to see the first page if the issue
Poor Tetratek works too much... D:

This is the first time we learn Sky's dad's name, isn't it? Or maybe not, I can't remember.
*Huggles Kremzeek lamp/statua/whatever the thing in the background is*

I think I dropped a small hint earlier, but I haven't outright addressed him until now.
