Let's Find Eoni...
You know when I scripted this and last week's pages it didn't occur to me how creepy they really are. But as i started drawing them, the heebie just really started to sink in. I'm happy with the way it turned out though.
You might be sick of hearing about my format change, but this week is a perfect example of how it saved the day. Friday night as I set to final pencils after a week of stealing a line or two here and there when I had a free moment, disaster struck. I got an ink blot in the middle of panel 4. But where in the past an 11x17 page would have caused me to cuss like a sailor, it also would have resulted in you getting a pencil only page this week after I mad-dashed to redraw it.
But things being what they are the smaller format allowed me to redraw the entire page. Now since I draw two pages on a single sheet of paper, this means I will have to redraw last weeks page if I want to have consistent originals. And I'm weird enough that this is important to me. It shouldn't be... originals are just a vehicle to get to the end product...

A housekeeping note...
I'm migrating to a WordPress host so that I can use the comicpress plugin. This won't affect the location of the site, but it will mean some permalinks might break and that comments might disappear. But the trade-in is that the new site should make for it being easier to add content and thus... mean more content.
Really great looking art! :)
ReplyDeleteThanks man. Quite an honor considering you were instrumental in my decision to go web-comic. I'm only sad that you commented before my move to word-press so the comment will disappear soon! (I've got the beta-site up, and am migrating pages over now).
