Stuffings!

Well, today's page was an adventure. Aside from taking some 9 hours to complete rather than 3 (because I was letting the INTERWEB completely DISTRACT me), as I was finishing inking the page, I noticed a MASSIVE PROBLEM that I overlooked, and feel wholeheartedly DUMB for.

Basically, the background of the second panel didn't agree with the previous pages, so I had to a) redraw the background, or b) flip the page. Well, obviously, as you can see, I did the latter. In fact, I think I might like how the page works out better with it flipped, but obviously it's not without its problems. For one thing, Zephan can no longer be exclusively right-handed anymore, unless that IS the way one would normally charge at somebody with a lance/staff-type weapon--I honestly don't know! I googled for pictures of "staff fight" and "lance fight" to make sure, but none of them specifically stated "this is somebody using a staff right-handed!" or whatever. 9_9. Also, because Zephan and Ryan's hair are not parted at the middle, I had to redraw their bangs after I scanned it in :p.

While I'm making commentaries on my pages, I guess I should mention the previous page. That third panel, with Xin? His hands used to be at a lower level, so they were exactly framing his crotch region. Obviously, as hot as a magical crotch would have been, that has since been adjusted. :p

In conclusion, from now on I'm sticking the Directions of Destiny banner on the top of entries where the comic has an update? Likewise for Lapis Aquae, I suppose.
