Description Next:
The Prologue, she is finished!
BGs taking forever as usual.... (()) I spent an hour to two hours on most of these panals, except the panal with Father Willy and the mouse with the gun, that was deleted when my computer shut down the first time, then the computer ate it the second time and I REFUSED to redraw it a third time so my dad and I looked up some voodoo spell and got the computer to spit it out
So this took a while, I'm working on Page One now. Hope everyone likes!

No bashing my lack of comic making skills I am new at this and will hopefully improve it time.

Thanks and actually quail can fly quite well and can fly in short bursts of speeds up to 80mph I've read. They only fly as a last resort though, they prefer to run on the ground which is why I chose them to be steeds in this story.

Actually, I can guess at least 150 are from one club. :iconphotographers-fanclub: puts out two photos per new member and 1 every two weeks for other members... I haven't been keeping up with checking my deviations I've finally gotten down to 70!

They have a lot of good picture and that's why it takes so long to go through themecause you have to take the link on the page to the original photographer I just realized the icon didn't work

Wow very nice, lol quail ranching! Love it.

Don't forget to add yellowish brush too, there's a lot of plants that color here. There not always dead though just yellow in color.

Ski-Machine In reply to awesometastic [2009-09-14 01:35:01 +0000 UTC]

Thanks! I will be sure to add the yellow brush, thanks for the tip! I haven't been to Arizona in years so most of my plant knowledge of the area comes from Google

lol yeah google aint bad though, I just took a trip up to prescott with my golf team this weekend so I had a bit of a "arizona wilderness" refresher.
gotta love the plateau's so amazing, and scary to drive on.

Try a different font. The one you used is kinda hard to read. o_O But other than that, I LOVE IT!

Haha yeah, you would! XDD But it's kinda more of a elegant proper old english style font. I would use something more western.

Ski-Machine In reply to xxYanshoi [2009-09-12 02:19:58 +0000 UTC]

I might switch to Comicsans, the most western font I have is Playbill but it's too hard to read at the size I'm keeping it at It just seems that everyone uses Comicsans *sigh*

ConspiritorialKitten [2009-09-12 00:28:29 +0000 UTC]

I only spotted a couple errors. In the first textbox, it talked about the Louisiana Purchase in the 180s. I think you meant 1800s? x)

And then "The settlers forced the Jumpers from their path, naturally, the Jumpers rebelled, it ended in terrible conflict" is kind of a run-on sentence. I'd suggest a semicolon after "path" and a period after "rebelled." Other than that, it looks great! : D

Ski-Machine In reply to ConspiritorialKitten [2009-09-12 00:32:29 +0000 UTC]

Thanks, actually it say 1803 it's just hard to see, I should have made my text bigger I'm not too worried about run-ons as I am about spelling and grammer but thanks
