Description
(edited on 24th April 2008)
Here's the next two pages that span as one image! The splash page we call it.
I like how I shaded the big (middle) mountain out the back! ^^ The backdrop was inspired from my observations of the cliffs from Monnaco of Europe! It was beautiful at night but I wondered what it'd be like during the day?
Well see for yourself and enjoy the beauty! ^^

Nice splash. I personally would have made the characters smaller and opened up the scene more.

Wow. I know every person that commented is saying that you're a great Drawer. Believe them. I wish I could draw that well sometimes. Though, I suppose it takes time. I have a question, though.
When you draw, do you see an image of what you want in your head? And when you finish, how does it compare with that image?
I wish I came back sooner xD I deleted all new Deviations, so I wouldn't have to go back through all 386 xD So, theank's for putting "Previous" and "Next" pages. This, as well as all, I'm sure, is a fav xP

Yay! And the adventure shall soon begin!
This splash page definitely has adventure written all over it! I love how the landscape captures the essence of "freedom". ^^
Awesome job Darkspeeds! Let's hope to see more splash pages emphasizing other themes and whatnot!

I deeply apologize for not being able to comment recently (so busy!!), but this is too phenomenal to not take time to praise!!
First and foremost, your clean shading and lines blow me away every time. That mountainous backdrop is indeed gorgeous, and I just love your diversity and originality of character designs.
You really have some serious, serious talent, *darkspeeds .

Ruby: "Huzzah! Over the unexplored horizon, it's time for a grand adventure! Are you ready, Ash?"
Ashworth: "...You seem a little... too excited. Are you feeling well today?"
Ruby: *clenches fist with fiery eyes* Of course! Fortune hunting is my passion, and I'll pursue it with all my heart and soul!"
Ash: "...To each his own... *smiles at Ruby's enthusiasm*"
I can't wait to see how all your characters interact with each other and how they develop as their journey unfolds. It's always fun and interesting to see the unique personalities of characters through dialogue and actions. 
Good luck as you continue working on your graphic novel!

Jolie double-page, franchement! J'adore cette scène ayant un petit coté de la vie quotidienne... Tu as été longtemps un de mes modèles pour le dessin, Darkspeeds! ^^
Juste quelques questions:
1)- Est-ce qu'il n'y a pas d'humains dans ton comic?
2)- Je trouve qu'il y a un petit cotΓ© One Piece aussi.. D'ailleurs, j'adore aussi ce manga ^^ Je me trompe?
Et j'espère que tu cntinuera ton comic, car rien que les première pages, je trouve cela bien foutu...

Woah! Your feedback is in French! XXD
*decoded*
Pretty double-page, frankly! I adore this scene having small dimensioned everyday life... You were a long time one of my models for the drawing, Darkspeeds! ^^ Just some questions: 1) - Are there no human in your comic? 2) - I find that there is small dimensioned One Piece also. Moreover, I adore also this manga ^^ I am mistaken? And I hope that you your comic will cntinuera, because only the first pages, I find that well foutu...
Ah now I understand! Oui! ^^
First of all thank you for your kind compliments! I really appreciate it!
1) Nope there are absolutely no humans on this cartoon series of mine! ^_~
2) Yes this cartoon series was partly inspired from ONE PIECE! I love that series too. = ) *thumbs up*

I just adore the amount of time and effort you put into your drawings,
I can clearly make out everything in the background, like the mountains, the characters, buildings and all!
Fantastic shading work too, character poses and expressions.
Keep up the fantastic work Elson!!!

Takes a deep breath Ahhhh...
I smell the fresh air of the coast and feel the wind that's howling through the mountains blowing through my hair when I look at this picture...
Nice to see your Europe trip haven't been so bad for you, I thought you maybe just thought about the old traditional stuff (I know you're not a big fan of it), than again good to see that the landscape has been inspiring for you (In Switzerland and in Monaco also, it seems. ^^)
The characters in here are just... cool. And a wonderful job on the scenery and the background. Bravo.

Whoa!!!
AshworthΒ΄s pose rocks, he is just sexy^^ (well, in the while that IΒ΄m waiting for Fei, we have Ashworth!)
Just randomly, I also remember about the cliffs from Monnaco, it was one of many places that I made research for my UniversityΒ΄s works^^
Lol, Ruby will never change: determinated, strong forward the horizon, ready for the adventure and never looking behind!
Ashworth looks positive (he is smiling!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)....hum....hey Ash, what do you think about that century? If you, of course, still can remember something about your time (500 years ago......)
Roland, thatΒ΄s eggs? Pass me some^^
Wonderful work, Elson!
Keep on and boa sorte for the next pages!
See you soon!

I'd love to see this colored, maybe as a poster... Like an official sized poster?
Any merchandise in the near future?

Finally!
WOW... Ash looks pwnsome. And Ruby looks really different... she doesn't look Sonicy at all, so that's good. She looks more like how you used to draw her a LONG time ago. (the beak especially) Looks good
