Final Sunset Page 22 Tones

Artist's Comments

Spent all day on this darn picture, cause I haven't used manga studio in friggin AGES (I forgot where my favourite tone- ascension was T.T ) but I now have something resembling a page T.T And I still don't like the second panel.

I donno- if people can give me crit on just the toning, it'd be great- but only till March 2008. It's due then T.T

I am a bit confused by the flow, does this read from left to right or right to left. It seemed more dramatic when read from right to left, but maybe that is just me. [emoticon] I love the upper right hand panel and the foreshortening is very well done on the upper left panel. The extreme close-up is dramatic and well done, the use of different shaped panels on the bottom help to break up the look. I don't really get the bottom right panel. Is it broken into more than one scene? I get the sense of movement, but can't quite make out what is going on. Maybe sound effects would help? I am one of the chronically confused, so no worries if I am the only one who does not see what you intended. [emoticon]

oh noes I'm spamming you with comments lol I really like the middle panel it has a nice panoramic effect. The second panel looks cool but I think I remember you saying something about fire being in there too. The fire is not that evident there so all I'd say is have the fire stick out a little more and show that it being blown away or something. But everything else is really nice especially the last few at the bottom of the page.

Upper left hand panel you mean? Are you sure it make sense reading from right to left and not left to right ^^; It wont make alot of sense without words or previous panels anyways. Essentially though, The first panel is Bryan dealing with a magic blast he got hit with, the next is his sending it onto his enemy, the next is witty banter, then from left to right, the eye onwards, its the evil character saying that he's going to kill the boy and his father freaking out and tackling him out of the way.

A tad hard to pick up without speech. To make it worse, I'm missing a panel between it's page and the next, but that just makes it flow better. It should still make sense.

Yeah- I don't think the fire effect is so important with it being in grey scale. I'm kinda hopeing 2 and 2 will fit together and people will figure it out for themselves. It's an unimportant feature really ^^;

Does it look ok in colours besides that though?

Does it look ok in color? I don't know what you mean. Do you intend on coloring it?

It's a black and white comic hon.... That's why I'm using screen tone :< If you see the high res, all the grey areas are masses of patterns that look crap unless zoomed out, or printed... ^^;
