Re: Page 2 - The Dark
Sorry about being so slow to update, I really want to get on with the story, but I have so many other things have on my todo list. I've decided that I like hand drawn borders (though hopefully they'll get a tiny bit straighter when I get more used to the tablet) and "standard paper size", so for now all of my pages will be in that format. I know a comic with not a lot of visuals is just a terrible novel, but I didn't feel like I could convey the feeling any other way. Also the dialogue is crap, but I really want to get this page out of the way so we can get on to fun stuff! I'm still kind of making this up as I go, so I hope it doesn't get too dark or whatever. Do you know how hard it is to get a sketchy white on black look, using fill and an eraser? Geez this took way longer than it needed to. 2 hours for about 5 seconds of reading. Anyways, see you next page!
Oooh, Ethan and Matt should check out Scott McCloud's Understanding Comics The Invisible Art (he also has a book on making comics). I've only read a couple chapters that were included in one of our school books, but I'm sure there is some way to "obtain" the whole thing. Anyway, the chapters that I read were a great read (it is written as a comic btw) and I'm sure the rest is great as well. It really opens your eyes to the tricks you subconsciously know from being a comic reader.
@Hassan I do believe dat be Ho-oh.
@Hussein That sounds really interesting. I'll have to look into that. Thanks!

@Hussein Yeah, I was actually looking at that on Amazon the other day. I heard about it from Day[9] (who got a game design masters from USC O_o) and some of his friends on a YouTube video. I'll definitely have to look into it now.
@Hassan I dunno, IS IT? It's supposed to be...
@Rem If it is from something, then I've subconsciously stolen it.

FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF- God I hate hands. And then I go and erase 90% of it for the frame. Anyways, I think I need to make smaller frames so that I can fit more story on each page. As always it should just get better as I get used to computer drawing.
At first, I was like, huh? There are no hands. And then I realized that you had put up another page. Haha.
Also, what did you mean by this:

Where you referring to the orb thingy or did you actually mean frame? I'm just trying to clarify.Ethanmn wrote:And then I go and erase 90% of it for the frame.
I meant, I drew a hand, but when I actually put it in the scene, the orb covered 90% of it and it hardly even mattered at that point.
This is just a wild shot in the dark.... but I'm guessing that the orb has gold coloring?
As it has to do with Ho-oh there could also be some rainbow on it if so desired =P
