Of Idiots and Immortals – 32
Page delivered. Tuesday, 5am. Bam. This issue is partly delayed because I took it upon myself to put together an Ikea bed solo today. The instructions said it was a two-man job—maybe for a lesser man. *flexes*
We’re approach the climax of the issue—we have about 8 pages to go. Which means, I have about 4 weeks to finish the script for the next issue, which currently isn’t on paper. The pressure is on, and I really hope I can bang it out in time, lest I go into the issue without having the full thing planned out.
As for my weekend, I went to the amusement park Knoeble’s in Pennsylvania for Jessica’s annual family reunion. Whilst there, I finally was able to meet Jessica’s parents, which went swimmingly. I got along well with her father, and generally had a fantastic time—we played a round of mini-golf (in which I did atrociously, despite getting in some really crazy trick shots to avoid obstacles), Jessica and I rode on a few rides, and won a buttload of tickets in the arcade.
Overall, I really had a fantastic weekend.
Anywho, it’s about 5am, so I’m going to call it a morning/night. See you all on Friday!
Finally all caught up. Huh, funny I could have sworn I remembered the roommate being a wherewolf. Now where on earth did I get that idea?
Love the Grim Reaper look on Will.
Nah, Steve’s a normal guy. Maybe you’re thinking of another good comic?
Personally, I love Will’s design in general, both hood up and hood down. Though, admittedly, it’s much easier to draw him hood up. Really, I’m just glad that, in a few pages I don’t have to draw the training scythe anymore. It’s kind of annoying to draw, especially when I finish drawing a page and need to go back and add it in.
I can relate to that. I’ve had to super impose stuff in because I forget or don’t notice the detail until the last minute. Even now when I go back to my first pages I see a lot of rework to be done. The style changed since I first started.
Kudos to you for being consistent all the way through though, the comic looks and feels spot on right from the beginning. It took me and the artist 3-5 months before we pinned our look, and even now it changes slightly.
Yeah, I noticed a few continuity errors in my last few pages, and just decided to keep going, since they’re really minor.
And you’d be surprised at how much my designs have changed over the past year. Go back to Issue 1, Page 4, and look at Steve and Will compared to the latest page. Massive differences in the designs, all unintentional. Also, the method of shading I’ve been using changed in the middle of issue 3.
