Yay! Page 2 is up! And yay for Americano spelling!

Page 1: [link]

So now you get to see the lady that killed Ayumi's family.

Oh, and look out! She's spotted you, Ayumi! Oh noes! You're officially a witness now!

What happens next? Does she kill Ayumi? or maybe Ayumi takes off into the air, Matrix style! Who knows! Find out next time... on Dragon ball Z!
err... I mean on my comic... >_>

Stuff I've said in the previous pages:

This is actually a back story for one of my characters so it might be a little confusing. Basically, the story focuses around Ayumi who has purple hair. She was originally a side character but I've decided to centre the story around hers to make the manga a lot shorter. Her story started off as just 4 pages but I've decided to elaborate on it a bit to share it with everyone who's reading it now.

Technique:
Actual comic done on paper with screentones digitally inserted. The "dots" were the only screentones I used. blood effects, xoom lines and whatnot were done manually, freehand or with a ruler.

The colour image was a sketch that I photoshopped into colour. I dunno if that makes it digital art, but the digital art section seems to be for stuff done with a tablet so I might have to re-think the categories I put all my art in.

The figures are fairly well drawn, and the composition is decent. But, I have to comment on the last two panels. There's no continuity! At first, I thought you neant to have a scene change, but you say she's the one who killed all those people just then. If she is the killer, then shouldn't she have some blood on her too? The panels don't link.

TheEclipse In reply to ipmaster [2007-03-27 08:18:29 +0000 UTC]

You know... you're the first person who's spotted that. In my orignal sketch, she had a bit of blood on her face, but for the final version I chose to save that for when I photoshop... but it must've slipped my mind.

Haha, I love how you added dragon ball Z. I've finally un-lazyfied myself to read this comic o.o

Those bits in Dragon Ball Z used to just drive me nuts. It's like we sit through 20 minutes of Goku charging up the spirit bomb and then when he's finally about to attack... well, you get the point.

Yup xD; I used to watch DBZ o.o And to be honest, I was ashamed of watching it because I was a girl. I must've been eight, nine? XD; I remember paying my sister a WHOLE dollar bill just so she can leave my room for me to watch tv. A dollar bill is a lot for an eight year old @__@~ It was a lot for even an 11 year old...
heehee, but did I love that show. I miss it @_@ It doesn't play here, in Canada..as far as I know.

Very nice: my only suggestion would be to carefully check it and clean any noise. XD;;

There are some little eraser/lead/ink dots (2nd and 10th panels) and some pencil blur in the right of the last frame.

Page 2!

I really hope you continue with this, because a lot of online mangas often end before the end of the first chapter. o_o And this has got some serious potential! So keep it going! You're really good with toning too, so this page came out especially nice.

TheEclipse In reply to Sakura-Star [2006-06-09 10:13:17 +0000 UTC]

Hmm.. actually, this is just a short story so it's actually only one chapter. But hey, after this one, I might start one that's a bit longer. ^__^

And thanks for the wonderful comment as always.

Good action blood scenes. Very effective. I especially love the top right panel.

You're releasing them one per day to torture us aren't you? (not that I can talk, the last page I did was like...3 months ago)

TheEclipse In reply to elphin-art [2006-06-09 10:19:58 +0000 UTC]

LOL, actually, I'm sure that I submitted it two days later... oh well.

And no, it's not to torture you. It's because I don't want to run of pages to submit before I can get anymore done... plus this way you take your time to look at each individual page.

I've actually got 5 pages finished, but just keep it between the two of us, okay? ^__^

Awesome! ^_^ Still pulling me in, even if I don't know what's going on further than the immediate incidents. It's pretty good for a comic to do that without a whole lotta background info. ^^

And hopefully the next few pages will finally end your confusion... actually, it might just get more complicated. xD I gotta learn to make my stories more coherent. >.>

man so far looking great!!! i really hope that you continue doing this nonstop, and dont become like 70% of online comic artists that stop drawing when they finish page 5. anywayz, i really like this, and the irony that someone so cute and that looks harmless would kill a little girls family. good stuff!!

It'd be more horrible if she just left without killing her. Or if she cut off her hand or something.

ANYWAYS. I'm loving this comic. Thought no real idea whats going on. Blood is better then a lot of the blood I've seen at DA! Extra points!
