Lol.

Well, I was hoping she would put out a "Butch" Image.

Im enjoying the input. Learning curve, and stuff.ld it be better if I made shorter strips?



A thought.....And Input would be nice....
Instead of large 11X14 pages, would it be better if I made shorter strips?

I was really trying to make the text easier to read in this one. Thanks Mid.

Oops, forgot to comment on that XD Yeah it looks a lot better. My bad <.<

Well, maybe have smaller panels and less text per panel? So instead of one with four bubbles, have 3 with 5 or whatever.

I know WHY you changed it to 256 colour, but you can have it as a 256 without making it look like garbage. By using a program that.. isn't.. paint?

[plightofthepureblood]

this is the second page. Of the Second Part

Sorry guys, its still pretty text-rich I have one more page about this size with about this much text, and then its all pretty much dialogue free for the most part.


I tried to dumb it down a bit, color wise, in accordance to the wise Mr. Mister.

I didnt use a different program, but I did lay off the lighting effects and the speckling.

Aside from the text, does it look better/is it easier to look at?

[plightofthepureblood]

and the last page.

It should be the end of the huge amounts of text.

Next episode...they meet the other character, the one in the photo.

Some fights.
Some mountain climbing.
Some creepy gore.

3-5 pages.

Anyhow, thanks for bearing with me on this.

Bearded man with sunglasses is cool.
The comics are easier on the eyes now, too.

Thanks man. Im glad to hear its easier to look at.

The bearded man, in the game and the comic here, plays a big role...But in the WHole of the COG series, the "plight of the pureblood" episode is the only one hes in.

His name is Troy Hoen. Hes like an old ex-adventurer. He gets right manic at times, and other times, hes overtly serious.

He has prosthetic legs, and wears the glasses from old injuries, which, in the game, he rambles on and one about....gets carried away. (when hes in a good mood.)

Hes one of my Favs. Brown, the dude in the picture, is pretty cool too. You'll meet him next Episode. Bad...asp...



So now youve at least seen most of the Characters in the serial strip.

There are two others.....

Jimmy Vargus, the groups Mechanic/Engineer, and Brown, the Mohawked elven dude in the photo.

yes yes better much

Episode three....page one.....

here it is

[Almeidaboo]

It's aewsome! The style just gets to me man, keep it up cause itīs excelent!

[plightofthepureblood]

Thanks dude!

[Almeidaboo]

Although although seems to be spelled allthough, which I think itīs wrong...

[plightofthepureblood]

Ive decided that after Im done making all of these particular strips, Im going to be editing all of my shat punctuation and spelling before releasing it all for good copy on a Website.

Thanks for pointing it out. Ill make a note of it.


On the bright side of this, Ive got a friend in Vancouver, who happens to be An Arts Managment Ninja...Hes taken some intrest in the story and style, and we're in the very earliest stages of planning an actual published, release of this, which is awesome. He is a techers aid for a graphic arts course, or something along those lines....Hes got Students, of art-stuff.

So uh....A collaboration on this project is in the early works.
Were thinking of getting the process started early in his January Semester, if not In the fall semester after.

Its a bit early to announce anything for sure, but this is really sweet.
Ive been playing with this idea since I was 13, and ALWAYS wished I had some help with it...to turn it into a graphic Novel (Not the plight of the pureblood episode though...thats a supplementary installment), and now it looks like its an actualy possibility.

Im pretty stoked on the idea. But its still quite far off.
Damn, drinkin import beers with hipster Art students is looking like it may start to pay off.


Yay.

And Yay for MS paint.

Nice job on the latest one. The art and layout really is awesome. That is, however, the only selling point, the characters and story is pretty flat so far. We'll wait and see.
