Comic has arrived!
« on: September 22, 2005, 07:04:40 am »
Here we go guys.

Finally had a bit of time and now I'll post what is totally ready for human consumption. First is just the title page, which shows the sextant emblem from the Endeavour uniform. I can barely remember what a sextant looks like and don't have access to a pic of one when I'm drawing at work on my breaks, so its a simple version.

Guess I'm not posting my comic. It won't let me. Any ideas why it won't let me?

I'm stumped...

Are they .jpg or .bmp files?

Well, I figured out how to make the files smaller! Now they'll post.

Anywho, here's page one. Not much, just gets the ball rolling. Funny thing is, I had no story idea ready when I started drawing. It all developed after I drew the first panel.

The art style is anime-ish, similar to Inuyasha and also a lil like Clone Wars, though with fewer elements of the later than I'd originally imagined.
Enjoy.

I suggest resizing the images in an editor. While the file size is down, the physical size of the images is huge.

Hey Guv, this is pretty good stuff! I like the Vulcan, she's hot. I don't understand that gibberish you Klunks call a language ( ;D ), so you'll kinda hafta spell it out for me what they're saying, although I take it to mean "Split up and find her!"

Josh is right though. You do need to reduce the image size somewhat, as at 1072x768 I have to scroll back and forth to see all of it.

Keep 'em coming.

As far as the language, its all really just giggerish. I am not really that nit-pickity. You can imagine your own dialouge.

I'll try and resize it. Didn't really think about it...

And yeah, she is hot... :D

Let's see if I have fixed the huge-ness of my images, shall we?

Finally got some more colored. Having trouble finding time for all this stuff... This page kinda just shows how my heroine is trying to find a defensible position to set up against the Klingons. PS, in later frames, watch the bug and the lizard which start on this page...
