Really excellent stuff.<br /><br />I also think you definitely evoked the look of Kirby space without just aping him. <br /><br />Looking forward to seeing this finished. The premise is something that definitely appeals to me as well.<br /><br />As for the introduction of Jonah and Funlola, I actually dig that we only see their faces partially, makes me feel like they are too concerned with keeping the ship steady etc. to pay attention to us as we look on. Something like that anyway.Yegwahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08487454423303689362noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4202763303889160266.post-82217753328033762412009-08-07T09:17:19.764+08:002009-08-07T09:17:19.764+08:00Shof,

I'd considered a frontal view for the first panel in which we see Jonah and Funlola, but ultimately I decided it didn't bother me that we didn't get a good clear look at them in the first panel that introduced them. There's a possibility this will change as I expect to come back and possibly re-draw some stuff down the line.<br /><br />As far as Funlola's suit's colors go, I've been toying with the idea of having the colors change randomly every couple of pages and not explicitly explaining the reason why in the script. This could change in the end though.<br /><br />Michelle,<br /><br />Ta for the kind words, the phylacteries really only worked that way, everything else looked a bit too polished on top of the texture and grit of the page :)<br /><br />It is in fact going to be entirely in color, though there might be some monochromatic flashback sequences. I'm targeting 60-70 pages. Long way to go!Shobohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07810015232159896480noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4202763303889160266.post-76995395555862195562009-08-07T04:48:57.530+08:002009-08-07T04:48:57.530+08:00Again, I looove what you are doing with the colors...Again, I looove what you are doing with the colors and textures, the whole aesthetic you've got going on in this is great. Also I agree with Shof about the phylacteries, they go well with the art. <br />So this whole thing will be in color then? Awesome. How many pages are you planning on?michellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16403480404580598865noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4202763303889160266.post-85148415967793965142009-08-06T14:44:16.224+08:002009-08-06T14:44:16.224+08:00Oh and I really like the shape of the phylacteries...Oh and I really like the shape of the phylacteries... text bubbles in case you were wondering.Shof Cokerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11186446450411975042noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4202763303889160266.post-88837755366023751172009-08-06T14:35:35.305+08:002009-08-06T14:35:35.305+08:00Looking good Shobo.

I do think that the first panel on page 2 needs to be a frontal composition of the characters or at least have Funlola turn her head toward Jonah because that's the first time we ever see them in a panel and it would be good to see them both clearly and with some expressions that introduce the viewer to the dynamic/relationship Jonah has with Funlola. Also did you change the color of Funlola's suit because of the interior of the ship? I liked the old color and methinks you should switch them... phew!<br /><br />Anyway like I said looking sharp bra!Shof Cokerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11186446450411975042noreply@blogger.com
