I should really make a character page or something, as I'm starting to have more people in this, especially when I make strips where I'm at work. It's in the works ;)
Sorry for no comic yesterday, I usually make them after I eat dinner, but after last night's meal, I was crashing hard. But I got one up today, and since tomorrow is a government holiday (and I'm a gov't employee!), I plan on catching up tomorrow :)
Did you notice anything different about this strip? I did it in pen! Hooray! When I first started inking it, I haaaated it. Almost scrapped the whole thing, but after throwing a fit about it for about 10 minutes, I realized that I just haven't inked anything in YEARS. So I decided to press on to see how it would turn out. I think it turned out halfway decent! It's a shame that the paper I was using it on caused the ink to bleed a little :( Will have to find some better paper or something.
Now before I get onto replies here, I need to give everyone a quick heads up! I'm going to be tinkering with the site a bit tonight and into tomorrow, rearranging things a bit and hopefully adding a few new things if I can get them ready. So if things look wonky, you'll know it's me clumsily working on the site. I'll let everyone know when it's done :)
REPLIESSS
@Maycroft: Thanks! :) And yeah, I used to just use pencil and ink all the time, but I don't think I ever got to the point where I made fewer mistakes haha
@TheFuture: After tonight's strip, I've definitely found that I rely waaayyy too much on being able to undo errors. I think I'll definitely revert back to doing this strip in Photoshop, although I do think I will keep penciling them first! :)
@ImaBLT: I didn't even know they made colored Microns! Not sure if I'd ever find a use for them though, I do a bad enough job with simple black hahaha
@Randal: Heya! Thanks for dropping by :D
@DeanLegion: Thank you so much! :)
@Kira: haha that commercial made me lol. So odd! And I realized the similarities after I had uploaded it, and it made me wish I had held off a bit more before making another undo joke :P
@CutieChick: Ooowwwww I had all 4 of my wisdom teeth pulled out at once few years back. I feel your pain :/ I'm glad that I was able to bring some sort of relief to you at least! Thank you for reading, and feel better soon! :)
@Ayesinback: We're both in the same boat! I'm still trying to figure out a good technique with the pens to see what feels right and looks nice. :/ It was definitely fun though once I got over how bad I thought it looked!
@Ashviera: I think I learned to accept that I will make mistakes while I teach myself how to use a pen again haha. I can see several in the comic up there @_@
@Net: haha I was never much of a crumple-and-toss person. More of a rip-tear-and-shred type of person ;P
@Dark Pascual: Now to find some decent paper that won't bleed the ink!
@JT: I've done digital for so long now that it became the norm for me, you would not believe how unusual it felt for me to be actually using a pencil and pen again. I think it started coming back to me near the end of it though :)
@Alwin: hahaha that's a helluva burden to carry, in my opinion :P
