Finally, my dearest character Keehva cameo's Lawl. To all those that are not familiar with my characters, thats the guy standing in the stone arch door.

And now to all those that are curious about the sudden apprearance of color: I have always made my comic in grayscale, however I tend to color lightimbued things, such as glass, spheres, eyes, fire, etc. But since I never actually uploaded the comics I made, no one will know lol. Also, to all those asking why the Tar'Suja don't have colored eyes then, here's the answer: Tar'Suja come in all possible colors from the hair to the scales in their faces, however their eyecolor is always ranging from white over gray to black, sometimes even silvers of any hue. Thus, they appear rather grey in this comic. I didn't think of the outcome in a comic version on this matter, so Keehva will be one of the only characters in this comic to have colored eyes, as this story simply circles mostly about the Tar'Sujan folk.

Oh, by the way, this is probably the first page on which you can see why the other Suja were making fun of Duhliya on the earlier pages: She has furred ears, as she's a Half Tar'Suja. She also has a half furred tail but its rarely seen as i usualy do my focus on characterportraial.... lawl :<

OK the furling is officially HOT.
Also, I love the close-up of Duhliya's ear! It's very well drawn, amazing!

Its sometimes not entirely about the artskill, but also about story telling, complexity of story, how well the dialogues are written and how well the style is executed (if you have a style for example that makes the characters look awsome in a certain position but they look horrible in any other, thats an example of bad executed style, and i've seen such manga :/ it scared the crap out of me), and all together sums up to result in something i might or might not like

i think that's what we call INCONSISTENCY... i struggle with that problem you know.. hehehhee

ITs really weird to see one character turn into a sudden another... what METAMORPHOSIS but yeah.... i should work hard as well with that... I dont want to condemn myself with the same problem... Good for you, you dont encounter this and i really like your cleanliness since it's a tablet that you use... oohhh how i wish to get one!!! XD

Lol i dont use tablet do to this comic, i draw the outlines on paper and then shade on PC with mouse. I tried doing one page with the tablet (this one >[link] ) but it felt weird, so i returned to do mousework on the pages XD.

And dont worry about your pages, i think they look very consistent until now, the characters are easily distinguished from each other and i havent seen any change even in different positions yet, so you're doing a great job (such things are usualy the first thing I notice. I think it was Tokyo Mew Mew manga that i saw it happen at its worst so i dont know why people liked that one so much, i felt cheated when i read it :< )

Whoa! youre an amazing one,, MOUSE! that's even worse than brush.. ehehhehe.... youre really good and like a pro in your shading and what they call tones... i did some of it just because of the pressure but really i wanna stick on traditional hatchings XD...

And thanks again for the kind words... youre doing a great job too... ill read your manga tomorrow... its quite late and wanted to share more but i need to get some sleep... hehehehe.. good night budd!

Heh thanks for the kind words XD. I sometimes just feel more comfortable with mouse when i do stuff that only needs to fill an area without the use of gradients or anything that has to do with artisticry. HOwever i do use my tablet when I see issues in the outlines that i need to correct, i tried with mouse but failed miserably LOL.

Haha oh yes i forgot about the time barrier. No problem there, sleep well XD.

I just thought students took tests instead of writing them. Sorry. I didn't mean to be rude.

yes, well, like i mentioned before, Keehva will sadly be one of the few like 5ish characters with colored eyes in this comic lol XD... I look forward to finishing this comic (in like 5 years or what...) and continue the actuall story, which has more characters that actually have colored eyes lol.
