Lend a Heart?

Amelius

on Jan. 25, 2008

This was supposed to be my answer to a cliche, but instead ended up looking like it's taking itself seriously. I've seen the "I give you my heart!" sort of thing about a mizillion times. I think this page fell into the very trap many of my others do: I'm thinking of the dialogue the entire time I'm drawing/coloring it, but when I start to actually write the dialogue, I forget what they were gonna say! So if this seemed a little stilted and formal at times, it's not because I can't write for crap (maybe…) but because I was seriously burnt out at the end of the page, considering when I was doing this page I was updating UIU and CTV every day, as well as doing a page for Villainy Minor every week.
Plus I wasn't getting sleep because I was out all night with friends. Whine whine! I'd like to think I'm a little more aware of this stuff now though. Hopefully. But for now, I'm cringing at the dialogue in this page! I was itching to fix it but decided it's best left alone. Besides, the next page is awesome by comparison, and this just makes it look even better.

Oh and I don't know if anyone noticed, but like with CTV these aren't in the original order I posted them on DA and CH in. I took a look at them and realized that chronologically, the pages are all over the place and it looks sloppy. Originally the apple/ladder one is in between the last one and this for some reason. What was I thinking? Or was I at all?!
