This is the first page I drew after coming off a brief vacation occasioned by my girlfriend having a full week off and wanting me to do nothing but play Dragon Age: Origins with her in that time. I’m not happy with any part of the page. The fighting is lusterless, the stances without energy, and the dialogue has that undefinable aura of clunk that I don’t quite know how to fix. Worse: I’ve lost my previously cushy buffer, so I’m working with more of a schedule than I have been. Time to build that buffer back up.
This page is probably not as clear or generally, y’know, good as it could have been. We got hit with a heat wave while I worked on it and I almost melted. This page was…not made with love.
The good news is that 1) now I have an air conditioner and 2) I kind of like the first panel. But pretty much everything else is a mess.
Not the best composition here, and I couldn’t quite get the stuff in in the text boxes to flow as well as I would have liked. At least Naksuanan has a hat with little balls on it.
