Description Hey, my first work of 2008! And I'm happy with it?! Inconceivable! The only thing I'm beginning to wonder is if the blood level here is high enough to warrant a Mature-rating... Since we don't see a ton on Marshall and Danny's is, well, electric green (and has been shown on a Y7 show, no less) I'm gonna go without (although let me know if you think it DOES need it).

Page 201
Panel1: no comment
panel2: I like how this panel came out ^^
panel3: AGH! no matter how hard I tried, there was always something off about how Danny's wound looks! Ugh... At least the rest of the panel came out ok...
panel4: I feel basically the same about this one as panel 3.

Page 202
panel1: I. LOVE. THIS. PANEL! I cannot explain why. It's just my fav so far
panel2: I'm pretty happy with how the ectoplasm around Danny's hand came out ^^ The effect I use to get it to look like that can be kinda fussy to use, and it's been known to weird out sometimes but it worked ok here...
panel3: Marshall's in trouble... And just who is 'they'?
panel4: no comment.

Aaaannd, that's all for now! Also, I got myself some new brushpens, so yay! It'll be a lot easier to do some of the work now.

Is "they" refering to some kind of black opps, or delta force type guys or something?

I love Danny's face when he says, "I don't want to feel pain" and the way you did his ectoplasmic blood is AWESOME!



This just made my day! Thank you!! Each page gets better and better!!! You're definetly the BEST artist I've seen and...yeah!

OH! More cryptive words...could "they" be related to "it"? (Darn those mysterious pronouns!) How would Marshall know about "it"? More excitement!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thanks again!

Nah, different sets of cryptic stuff. In this case 'they' probably refers to some type of Backup... But who?...

Backup for Marshall...the backup that Val was sent to get? So, is he talking to himself or speaking directly to Danneh? That's where I gots confuzzled. Silly meh!

Aww.. The last panel on the first page made me want to hug him... (Not that every panel doesn't do that, but...) Even despite the fact that he's currently in psychopathic "who knows what the hell is going on in his head" mode.

Also, in my devwatch thingy, when I saw you updated, this was the very first thing I clicked on. XD This comic is my online chopcolate (which I bought 12 of in one class period...) Keep up the good work~!

Buuuut one thing I just thought I should point out is that the effect you used for the blood look a little out of place with your style or... some.. thing.. I dunno. Just thought you might want to know, since most artists like criticism when it helps them out.... Even though some of us criticise ourselves all the time... [insert very guilty cough here] Eh, yeah. But that's all I'll say, since it's probably just a personal opinion thing.

I know what you mean... The few moment's he shows emotion, he's all sad and you just wanna comfort him and such...

Really? Cool. ^^ Thanks.

Yeeaaahh... I know exactly what you mean... I dunno, maybe it's because the brightness of Danny's blood against his clothing or something, but it just won't look the way I want it to... But thanks for mentioning it, I need to work on how I draw/paint it...

Yeh, ectoblasts do nasty things to ectoplasm... That's gonna leave a mark.

XD Nah, I can do it too (sorta. With much effort).

No it can't. At least not if it's Danny vs Marshall!

then there's the question on everybody's lips - is this when danny finally escapes the GIW?

tune in next time! or the next!

It's comments like that "don't want to feel pain" that remind us how gone his brain is. You're doing a great job of making him unstable. Your characterization is as good as your art! (VERY!)

Love that big hand on the second page. Although I will point out that that little pinky finger is very small in comparison to the other chunkier fingers. But I still love it. gives a good sense of mass and volume.

And I am curious as to what you did to create that effect for Danny's growing ectoplasmic blast, if you care to explain the process.

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

The-Alchemists-Muse In reply to peanutbutter-liver [2008-01-07 04:51:08 +0000 UTC]

^__^ Thanks. I think you're right about the pinky finger, although I do know people whose pinky fingers are literally an inch shorter then the rest of their fingers... But still. I'll try to be careful about hands...

I wouldn't mind explaining except that there's some parts that are hard to explain through words But I'll give it a try: In adobe photoshop, create a separate layer for the ectoplasm/blast/whatever glowy thing. Then go to 'Layers' on the options bar and select 'layer affects'. Choose 'outer glow' and a small window should pop up containing the adjustments you can do. Leave most of it as it is except for 2 parts: the color (choose whatever you want) and the part near the bottom which dictates which type of glow you want. Select the image that looks like the image on a heart monitor (like in hospitals) with 2 spikes on it. After that, hit 'ok' and the window will disappear. Choose a paintbrush of your choice and set it to about 20% opacity. Then, just draw about and it ought to come out more or less like it did in my comic... The tough part is making sure it doesn't overlap too much and get messy... It's really a lot of trial and error...

peanutbutter-liver In reply to The-Alchemists-Muse [2008-01-08 07:03:22 +0000 UTC]

^_^ Weird, I've gotta try that sometime.

And I was referring more so to the width of the pinky finger rather than it's length.

... Hey... My pinky's an inch shorter than my middle finger too.

*pumps fists up into the air* Yay for tiny pinkies!!!

LadyMoonshade [2008-01-07 02:37:42 +0000 UTC]

They... Backup? More GIWs, perhaps, or some other force? I would smell conspiracy, but Marshall is too straight-laced for that.

And what, pray tell, is that fiery orb in BlackEyeDanny's hand? Is it meant to heal him, or to kill off Marshall? You keep saying how Marshall is hard to draw, and that makes me wonder if he's a goner-- I've heard a lot about manga-ka/comic book artists giving the red shirts difficult designs, just because they don't have to draw it for very long...

Or does this little orb have something to do with IT, perhaps? Or something else altogether?

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

The-Alchemists-Muse In reply to LadyMoonshade [2008-01-07 05:06:43 +0000 UTC]

It's true he doesn't seem like a guy who'd be involved in conspiracy, but then again, we've seen him more or less blackmail Vlad a few chapters back, plus he works for a shady government agency, so... Who knows...

It's just an ecto-blast, albeit a strong one. Strong enough to kill? Maybe... However, let it be known that even if Marshall was a goner (and I'm not saying he is) I wouldn't kill him off just 'cause he's hard to draw. Because I don't like him or because it helps the plot? perhaps. But not because of the art. He's tough to draw because it's tougher dealing the proportions between his head and body due to... I dunno why, but I'll figure it out eventually XD
