Metempsychosis: page 9

Freakeh

on Jan. 27, 2007

Eeeh… I sorta rushed this page. I'm too tired to like it xP oh noes deary me this page has fallen into the trap of cliches! It's not as simple as darkness versus light, and there's no underlying theme of that (even if it seems so sometimes) but they -are- opposing elements so yea… And "holiness" sounded even worse.
But I flicked through the whole of my archives, and even though I don't like the first few chapters and want to redo them completely at some point, I felt there was enough hints in it to make sense, if only somebody would remember all of them and piece them together before the passage of time made them forget. So I don't like it, but I'm happy with it. Happy -enough-.

gah i just keep getting further and further behind on comics, without catching up at all x-x i'm sorry that i haven't been on DD much recently. maybe i'll feel more energetic during the week, or at least less brain-dead.

Responses:

@Tantz: Hee, I'm glad it was coherent. =3 And you're right, she doesn't like the thought of violence but will (albeit inadvertantly) kill in the name of the greater good… this is not quite the case for Z.. xD

And hopefully, by the time we get to that point, I'll be good enough to -draw- his moves XD

@Joff: That's classy? XD

@Rubygem: Once is enough (:

@Black Shimmer: Heehee, I've never drawn an explosion before. XD My spastic rendition of one would take away all the coolness of the effect itself.

I have NO idea what you're on about, but I thank you, I think. (: Soap opera moment? xD;

That raises the interesting point of how sad Lord Voldemort must be, getting his butt whooped by a kid though XD Awww so emo. I knew the "*hiss*" might be interpreted as coming from the Donovan, but I had to risk it in order to lead up to this page =3

@Darkmax: -Day's- worth of shading? *bursts out laughing* Ahahahaha XD Shading doesn't take me very long at all, about 15 minutes per panel, because I never bother to include toning. xP I should do, really, but… How can you call this comic stunning, have you seen how The Devilfish Project looks? XD

@EmilyTheStrange: Aww thank you x3 Z. was fun to draw in that panel, even though he was getting hurt.

@Toshubi: …Eww. XD I like that idea. But as you will see (next week?), that wouldn't've worked =3

@Jashiku: I never saw that as -having- the horror element though, only the comedy, but yesh it -is- hillarious xD

Apparently so! XD

Yesh, he did, but he was aiming to slice his neck open so a fleshwound on Z.'s cheek is really best-case scenario. )=

@Brokenhill: You can duck down while something is -coming- at you, but once it -has- -hit- you, you reel back from the force of impact XD aww thank you =3

@LowResAtari: He wasn't alive to begin with =D Well. To -begin- with. But he died before the battle. That Donovan is actually very important to one of the characters, even if he's not around as a character for very much.

@Frail: Organised? XD I usually end up changing what I'm going to draw literally right before I draw it. but thank you XD

and lo and behold! Z.'s hand is creeping towards his sword XDD

I can't work out whether you mean the panel where the Donovan is glaring at Miyoko, or where the Donovan is getting hit, because of the two-panels-in-one as the weapons are fwooshing through the air XD;

@eko: Cute, really? x3 aww!

Hurray! I really wanna go see it, but I'm too tired now ;-; I'll look at Hallelujah tomorrow! (Or the day after…) As soon as I can!! Yes!!

Thank you so much ^-^ What aspects of it -are- more advanced, though? i'm curious so I can mantain that.

@animegal: or could make it more melo-dramatic x3 Thank you X3~

@insanelysane: But I just draw a few dots and call it an expression. XD The Donovan still has a few tricks up his baggy sleeves… he's very determined to do what he came there to do. (:

aww thank you so much for your concern ;-; I hope I will too!

@simonitro: XDD But not for long.

He -could- chase her… or his arrogance could deny the fact he even got hurt, making him only just realize it. XD Oh if only I could remember what happened next… I sure I used to know the entirity of the story off by heart, but now I'm forgetting unless I look at the script… I need to sleep…

@Oren: Yesh it is x3 For me though, people don't tend to care like I do. XD I sit there going, "OMG! Z.'s gonna get scarred! The Donovan's gonna cut his face open tomorrow! (was Friday when I was saying this)" and people are just like, "Stacie… shut up." and I'm like, "Neva! Ox"

of course, Zotia has formed their physical manifestations XD

thanks, I didn't even think of doing that before I was physically drawing it o_o
