I wanted it to look like the MJ pages but it mostly looks like mynormal stuff except in a "can't-be-arsed-to-render" mood!<BR/><BR/>I also realised after starting inking that my decision to put coats over the blazers was stupid for two reasons.<BR/><BR/>1. We used to get into trouble if we were seen walking home without our blazers (as it looked bad on the school!) so we always stuffed ours in our bags and wors coats in the winter to get around having to look poncey.<BR/><BR/>2. Which is fun but when drawing these characters in coats, it loses the immediate schoolboy flavour. I've worked around it for later scenes but I'm also not sure whether to go in and make the blazers all solid black or to keep them as they are. The sole reason for keeping them as they are is that the difference between the schoolkids in the foregound (with shadowed blazers) and the lighter figures in the background evokes an illusion of depth. <BR/><BR/>I may post a full page soon to see what you think.Nige Lowreyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08626603640991107968noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2156988513853971148.post-68181462427728049262009-02-25T09:41:00.000-08:002009-02-25T09:41:00.000-08:00The one that always gets me is how they found out ...The one that always gets me is how they found out which animals were for milking.

Like drinking milk, starting a fire, eating eggs, etc. <BR/><BR/>All I need to do now is write it.Rolhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02103804480646939038noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2156988513853971148.post-59036416825070014042009-02-25T06:12:00.000-08:002009-02-25T06:12:00.000-08:00Actually, HRG makes sense as Rebel too but could b...Actually, HRG makes sense as Rebel too but could be too obvious... start your theories once you've seen the episode!Nige Lowreyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08626603640991107968noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2156988513853971148.post-49869223573609442622009-02-25T06:09:00.000-08:002009-02-25T06:09:00.000-08:00Diamond didn't do the cuts, Cinebook did as they w...Diamond didn't do the cuts, Cinebook did as they wanted to appeal to as wide an audience as possible outside of Europe, where nudity is less of a concern. I noticed in the indicia that Cinebook had done this but I had no idea of where the editing was done in IR$ (unless it was quite drastic drapery over naked bums) and suspected a bra may hve been drawn into Aldebaran, but at least it was a pretty bra that went with the look of the art. Nothing immediately jumps out at you, although I suppose the edits may be quite heavy if you see the originals.<BR/><BR/>Well, there's nothing much to spoil as it's a mystery but Rebel isn't a significant element yet, but may come to be (seconds of screen presence only). Fugitives is not as strong as Villains' opening episodes but still better than Season Two and intriguing enough with the heroes on the run idea. Sylar's great though, especially one sequence in Ep 2...<BR/><BR/>I know you're supposed to root for Peter but I wish Nathan'd just kill the whiny git. Even though he's misguided, I still like Nathan (well, more than the rest of his clan anyway).Nige Lowreyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08626603640991107968noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2156988513853971148.post-57647162691998514682009-02-25T04:50:00.000-08:002009-02-25T04:50:00.000-08:00Only saw the first Heroes ep, so you confused me w...Only saw the first Heroes ep, so you confused me with all this Rebel stuff. The usual funny Hiro bits, but Kring's dialogue was well dodgy, particularly in the painful Petrelli bros scenes. And how deaf & dumb were those guards on the plane? I'm hoping they crash land on the Lost island for a crossover.<BR/><BR/>I know Diamond have upped the sales cut off point, but banning naughty bits? eh what?Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02481185191765473608noreply@blogger.com
