vs

things I wanted to show in this strip:

1 - the real is a constantly changing environment. at any time the playing field could just up and go poof!

2 - I wanted to pace it as a continuation from my audition.

3 - prove that I can do backgrounds by hand, even though it nearly blinded me.

4 - play with dialogue in a way that I never considered before. including the use of quotes.

and that's pretty much it...

Next stop: one hell of a pissed off Draco!!! And an actual battle. I have never in all my life drawn a full battle in comic form before… (past attempts at Ever Hollow don’t count, because it was total crap!!!)

Enjoy…

*pats on the back* hey, it's totally alright. I'm in this for the experience even if it does come with a bit of hackling on the side

Oh ok, good. Whew.

Yeah, uh...keep practicing with guns just in case you run up against someone else with guns (that is, assuming you beat me or if you're in some other future tourney)

alright, definitely. and you should practice fuzzy things yourself. the triangle hair/fur thing can only go so far.

at least he's not hackling about the character designs. I could give him hell back if I really wanted to. (he totally got Rocky all screwed up, and Phox looks like she was drawn with his eyes shut)

but I'm actually paying attention to what he perceives as gun weaponry so I can better accomplish drawing them in future.

but thanks for the support sister.

Well, that's 'cause you drew em pretty well compared to the guns, especially Frank's suit.

Also, I wasn't gonna bother with telling about capturing their personality correctly, 'cause that's even harder to do.

yeah... I sorta gave up figuring them out after going through your gallery for info research about a dozen times. it just didn't click with me. and I'm not comfortable with the type of dialogue/slang you use for/with them. mostly because I seriously don't know how to use it.

call it a cultural breach if you will. I'm Arabian so my language use falls more under Arabic is the cussing department then English. (unless you call hell, damn and bloodY cussing. which hardly counts)

I figure since you got Draco to use the "don't taze me, bro!" line. I can be excused for the script I wrote.

btw, Frank's eye riser is glass, right???

Uh..more like some sort of advanced transparent plastic material.

Why? Does Frank get stabbed through his visors or something?

that.... and uhh... well... yes. I warned you that I totally failed at guns, and there was no way come hell or high water that I was gonna work with those in those crazy angles.

besides, I don't like guns. I prefer swords and arrows.

and I don't perceive you as smily... that's supposed to me a grimace... or I thought it was... I had to redraw every one of the expressions for you about 3 times over...

Looks great! I especially like the backgrounds. Even without colors, they're really detailed (I'm also impressed so much because I suck at backgrounds xD).

Wazaga In reply to ShaeEldera [2009-07-23 03:39:11 +0000 UTC]

wanna know a secret? I suck at them too. but I'm getting a little better handling them

ShaeEldera In reply to Wazaga [2009-07-23 03:41:50 +0000 UTC]

Haha! I don't think you could suck more at background than I do. xD I figure it's because I get distracted and forget about perspective. But, I know I'm repeating myself, I really enjoy this page and it's backgrounds. I'm looking forward to what comes next since you said you have so many pages.

Wazaga In reply to ShaeEldera [2009-07-23 03:47:51 +0000 UTC]

I don't really think about perspective either... if it looks right, it's right.

the next bit is exactly the same size as this one... just less text and more action.

ShaeEldera In reply to Wazaga [2009-07-23 03:50:46 +0000 UTC]

Are all of your pages the same size? o.O If so, then your page count of 16 is crazy!

Wazaga In reply to ShaeEldera [2009-07-23 09:09:58 +0000 UTC]

doh! *smacks self*

alright, what I meant is that all the paneling here in this strip is made of 8 pages from my sketchbook. the next strip will be the remaining 8 pages from the same book. thus 16 pages are scanned into 2 strips... sorry for not being clear about that.

ShaeEldera In reply to Wazaga [2009-07-23 15:37:13 +0000 UTC]

Ah, that makes sense Thanks for clearing it up. For awhile there, I was thinking you were some kind of super-human/alien/mutant artist who could bend time to do their bidding xD Which would be cool now that I think about it >.>

Wow, Phixy kind of reminds me of my light draconian Sylvanas. he is extremely nice, would never hurt anyone...and would basically react the was Phoxy did when she said that. Nice job on the comic! keep up the great work.
