Doodles 5: That thread was old, this thread is gold.

Working on my comic, finally! So happy.

Using techniques on head construction that I learned from some professor in the art school that filled in for my regular art teacher. It's really handy. OMG. I love this techniq

EDIT: I'm done with the layout.


First, I do the first layer thing, to show were everything goes, and work out proportion and stuff.


The I work on the line weight and work out anatomy stuff, things like that. Also, I work out where the balloons go, cuz I know we've all made the mistake of leaving no room for the balloons.

But yeah, that's how I make pages now. I'm happy. I finally feel like I'm able to incorporate stuff into my comic. Plus, no final project! Yay.

Critiques please.

So freakin awesome senshi. Kudos.

Oooh, nice layout Senshi! Flows very nicely from panel to panel.

Did you realize you switched the female's hand from panel 1 to panel's 2 and 3? She starts out appearing to summon the weapon over her left hand in panel 1, but then it looks like it switches to the point of view behind the right hand in panels 2 and 3.

I didn't get to draw too many warm up doodles in the sketch book of crapnitude this week:





right, I always draw myself like that. Read of it what you will.

Looks lovely... now back to writing, you!

[Black Sparrow]

Yikes, RA. She is hawt!

[Vorticus]

You do colors so differently from anything I see around, RA. It's fun

[Prettysenshi]

Yeah RA, i love the color schemes of your work. The face on your picture really draws me in. I really like it.

[Humbug]

Just felt like drawing it, I'm not sure what to with it if I finish though.

[Prettysenshi]

Humbug, you have to finish that!! Make it a wallpaper or something.

[Tim]

Then again, we always want Humbug to finish everything she draws.

[Humbug]

Heh, thanks. A wallpaper is a great idea, I need a new one myself.

Glad to see you haven't given up the ghost.
One trick about speech balloons is that if you incorporate them in your design from the get go you can use them to cover up empty areas or drawing errors. I too, however, often find myself covering up more than I would like with the speech bubbles.


Anyway; alternative version of the panel on page 36

[Garneta]

Pretty!

[Black Sparrow]

The reflection in the sword was a better effect, though: I'm glad you used that one.
