Description DAMN I'M TIRED.

    Lox here is... unsure. He just intentionally killed someone, after all. Very gloomy atmosphere. He doesn't really feel that gash, but he holds it anyway.


But you know, I kinda missed working on BS!
Oh man.. I think I've improved too. [link] *coughspewblood*
I am thus proud of the panel with perspective

The beginning of the really epic pages! I like how the top of this page starts off silly and ends up being dramatic like that. Those swirls are awesome. It makes me feel like the comic's opened up for real and could very well suck us in. I actually though it was a portal during my first read and that Zort was going to come out of it or grab Lox and pull him in.

The 4th panel's perspective is a bit confusing to me, or at least the angle of the floor makes it look like she'll slide off or something when looked at closely. Either that, or the darker contrast of the shadow underneath her causes the eye to fall downward.

Other than that, I love the panels of him getting up and looming over Zig. The panels within the last scene are a nice touch too.

If I am to be openly admittant as to what I found the funniest gag in the comic, it'd be that top panel. Oh darn though, a portal! XD Well I can understand the assumption, since you'll need to know a bit more about Zig's bio to make the connection right away.

Yeah, that panel looks really off-key - I'm glad someone could put to words exactly what's wrong with it! I am getting really carried away with visual angles and am venturing too far ahead of myself. Practice practice!

Thank you!

Really? Hehe sweet.

You're welcome. Heh, I get carried away with angles too, and in doing that, I forget little details that might be important...like what exactly will be shown on the sides and such. It's hard to push your brain to see that when you can't see it in real life.

He ought to! First death.. well, you know, he really has nothing to do with battles or killing people. We'll see how this goes down for him

Oh yes, the fancy features on Photoshop can leave endless possibilities Just experimenting with onomatopoeia in comics right now.. it certainly proves more useful than I thought!

Oh wow I responded WAYY too late to this I've been so busy. I'm sorry
Anyways, FIRST PANEL IS WIN! He does not seem to be enjoying himself XD
I like the pretty swirly thing in the corner It rocks
The perspectives on this one are really good I have to say But in Panel 5 something looks off... I don't know it could be just me. I think the crotch-area looks a little too square XD (that sounds so weird). Something about the head in that pane bugs me a bit too..I just have no idea what it is or why *sigh*

I think you made an interesting point how Lox never even bothered to learn her name. It's a shame really..just kind of shows how mindless the killing is. And his nervous laugh is a nice touch to show the emotion of it there too..it's just uncomfortable XD

enigmatia In reply to Nikrain [2010-09-04 00:28:21 +0000 UTC]

No, seriously, late or not, I appreciate it all the way! You're a busy bee just like me, so don't think you need to apologise for it

ENTHUSIAM! All what Lox is about
I like it too - I was inspired by the movie "Clash of the Titans" for that. Hades made a very cool appearance on Earth, and he had all these glowing embers floating around.. awesome *_*
Nyeh... you're probably right. The perspective in Panel 5 was very influenced by ~Yeakuaf 's drawing style.. she does awesome below and above perspectives and her style is far squarer than mine. Assuming it will mingle with mine is sorta silly, yes P:

Indeed! It just throws in a little regret for him too.. but he has to keep moving. He really doesn't want to die. But he still has that morale behind him.. never killed another Irken, or anyone for that matter. He avoided a lot of the Armada and had hoped to harden up a bit once he tried to do a little work in the Elites, but he only performed acts of deceit to knock someone down, rather than mortal combat. Try to render them as useless and weak as him, perhaps a little less.

Nikrain In reply to enigmatia [2010-09-06 00:44:51 +0000 UTC]

I still feel bad...ever since I've started school again I've been having less and less time to get on this website, which means I have about 300 more messages to go through than normal

Oooh Clash of the Titans! I liked that one! ^_^ Greek Mythology and all that stuff is just fun.

Yes.. it makes a good conflict in Lox's character though. Doesn't want to kill people, but in his situation he really has no choice, does he?

enigmatia In reply to Nikrain [2010-09-15 01:11:48 +0000 UTC]

You're just like me XD You should know that school comes first, and you shouldn't feel bad that something else is making you have less time. Feeling guilty and forgetting that fact is a huge problem for me too. Let's cure ourselves together then, shall we?!

Yeah, I liked it too I wasn't too caught up with the mythology - I did recognise a few like Hades, Zues and Medusa and others, but I thought the aesthetics of the film was well done! Proud say the main character is played by an Australian; about time this country got itself into the media a bit more!

No, he doesn't! And I think this would be the same go for anyone else too, unless the character is an assassin or trained to kill.

Nikrain In reply to enigmatia [2010-09-15 03:00:53 +0000 UTC]

Exactly how things are. WE SHALL SEARCH FOR A CURE! ...
If only we had Professor Membrane though.. he tends to find cures for things in less than a day

I find it funny that you mention an assassin as someone who wouldn't mind killing, because I've been scheming up an assassin character who hates himself because of all the people he's killed and knows that he'll have to kill later... Oh the irony XD

W00t! Round 3!

Lox is very ungrateful. Making rude remarks at someone on their deathbed, he should be ashamed. Well, she was sent out to kill him. But sheesh Lox, I'm sure she heard that from up there. At least he feels sorrow for her.

Your comic looks so different from there up until now. Lox is now greener, smaller, and doesn't have that creepy smile anymore .

WHOOOOOSSSSHHH...

Oh and I see the power is back on. When did it come back, during the transition between the two rounds?
