Well, I owe 2 people some fan art not only because they beat me out finally in the top list, but because they have awesome comics (I just need to find time to work on these things!) but here is Pinky, who belongs to a really cool guy known as ozoneocean, and the comic Pinky belongs to is called Pinky TA
Also I slipped in a guest spot for Xan from Villainy Minor ^_^
IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT! I'm in dire need of money...well, maybe not DIRE per se, but Nick and I had planned to go to the Texas Wizard World convention, and suddenly money had been getting very tight between buying a place to live and all the wedding stuff and craziness...oy, but I hate to ask...so, I want to propose that I do something in return for meeting a goal (unless anyone has a great suggestion, please refer to the CTV forum if you do so it can be worked out) but my idea was this: If we get up to 500 before November 10 or so, I'll do a full week of daily updates of CTV, if there's miraculously any more than that, I'll do more... and if we get close enough, I'll do like half a week or something. This should keep me extremely busy! I would like to do commissions, but I haven't really got time for them...nor do I think of my work as worth much, which is why I feel pretty rotten asking like this too...so if anyone has suggestions what I should do to deserve it, let me know. I did make a few things to sell on Ebay (one of which is a pipe-cleaner Samrick and a good Oswego-Charby) but until I have pictures/figure out ebay it'll be a while for those. Anyway, if you think this is an OK idea, just tell me...I don't want anyone to feel guilty because they can't do anything to help out (I would never hold that against you! I'd be pretty awful if I did, y'know) but any little bit counts.
Also, another thing I'd like to add: if someone (like last update's comment) is being rude and ignorant and unhelpful, don't pay them the favor of visiting their comic to retaliate (or even see if they can back it up with better!)because that's just what they want, you're just another hit-count to them. There is no other good reason for someone like that to make hilariously idiotic comments bent on raising the ire of a comic's audience (especially if it is a large audience) other than to draw the attention to their own comic. Even if you're just taking a peek, this person will still benefit from your visit.
There's still a lot to be said for having good manners, even on the internet.
Also, I've changed the rating to T, though I'm not really for it and I typically like it as E because...well, I have my reasons let's just say, anyway, because I don't want to get trouble for the impending violence up ahead (especially if we get to the point of daily updates). I can't say I really agree with the rating descriptions, because this comic is far from an "M" rating, yet that and "adult" are the only 2 that mention violence (though CTV has more "gore" than "violence") and as far as that goes, it's the only thing in CTV that could be considered "bad".
The look on Sadick's face in panel 7 is hilarious way over the mountains!
And wish I had started reading here on DrunkDuck sooner, 'cause would have donated to your trip, were it not that it's probably over by now :S
You know, i just realise you like twisting the plot it hit the ends x_x Makes me can't stop reading the next and the next.... Oh yeah, sorry for not commenting the previous ones , got to curious to find out =)
Sigh. I heart heart heart you Amelius, but Saddick and LaBelle drive me insane. They're so damn dense. Especially Saddick. I trust in Amelius though, heh. All will be well.
BOOYAH!! YOU GO LABELLE! Kavonn has no luck at all against that woman, lol! Serves him right for being so quick to condemn someone to death instead of forcing Sadick to tell him why he was chasing Faye in the first place, XD
....and where does it say Amelius is getting hitched? Congrats if she is! (:
Oh, the plot twists! Who will save Kavoon? Will LaBelle loose her gorgeous bod?
She really should have thought that one out.
Beautiful page.
Thanks, Amy.
guys don't go acting like a mob and stoneing 'annonymus' to death here, he/she is entitled to her/his oppinion, i just wish that a) he wouldn't hide behind his dumb annonymus sheild, and b) he would be a little more polite about it i love this commic just as much as everybody but i dont; think it's fair to condemn everyone who posts a negative comment (although as stated earlyer i do wish people would be more polite when they have critisisms)
I hope he just reverses her bodacious form. I probably break quite alot of unwritten laws about men when I say this, but I liked La'Belle flat chested tomboy.
I have to stand to Johnny Rockers defense by saying that in spite of the fact that I disagree with him, he is entitled to an opinion just like everyone else. also, dropping a bowling ball on a computer is far more fun...yes i've done that...
wow... some people just want to be rude about comics cause they dont like it... its just that anonymous does not like this comic...
but alot of people do so I dont understand why people have to make rude comments when they hate a comic...
just close the page and walk away instead of leaving the rude comments... or just pour water into your computer if you are such a crybaby that you got to complain about every single comic you hate... cause obviously you dont deserve to have a computer if you just use it to cause lotsa flaming wars...
Seriously, WTH is up with people insulting the comic? Are they jealous? Aww you poor poor diluted little children. Time to get your brain scanned for cats, and your eyes checked for ES at the end.
Blue Link: Are you asking about Amelius' current avatar? It's not Charby, it's Fernando from Unlife is Unfair, another comic of Amelius' (yeah, I don't know how she does them all...maybe gnomes).
Anonymous is a freakin idiot. This comic is amazing, hell, it helped me get through my depression over the summer!
Totally worth donating to(so I will!)
I don't think he likes being threatened! Completely wrong way to handle that. It's so cool how he controlled his arm! :D
Hah! It's Pinky! :D
I wanna donate money! This is like the only comic I would donate money to even when strapped for money, myself :P Even if it's just like $10, that's a lot to me! I'm totally for it.
I love the effects you did with the floor, how it reflects the feet of whoever happens to be above it. I also like that you took the time to include the correct coloring from the character's clothing.
Once again, I also like the effect on the floor, because it can show the entire character. >_> And, I've been reading this comic for a while, and wanted to five it with a relatively long thing on my favorite part.
Although, a close second is the way you make the character's eyes. Including the distinct ring in her eyes, when she nailed Kavonn with the vase.
Other than what has already been said, I would like to add that the fact that Xan is just sitting there with the "ok, crazy people, moving on" expression is absolutely hilarious
Oh my, your art style just gets more and move lush every time. It's so very rich, delicious and like black forest cake! Marvellous figures and expressions!
Kavon gets more and more awesome each time. Even when bumped on the head he still looks great!
Wow! It's a real honour to have Pinky show up in CTV! An absolute honour. ^_^ That's beautiful Amy. Ah, and she's there with the cool Xan from the fantastic Villainy Minor!. I love that guy!
Ouch, haha. sorry about retaliating to that guys comment >.> good luck with raising that money though,i'd love to see more charby so i might just donate to you =D
Good luck getting the money you need. I know what you mean by not wanting to change it to T I didn't want my comic to do it either but there are a few points in it that may require that. Better safe then sorry.
I hope y'all are able to get the money you need to make it to the convention! (I gotta raise money too x_x ) If there's anything I can do to help, feel free to ask. I'll try what I can ^_^
I love how the reflectsions look on this page. Kavonn's hat popping off can only spell bad for the party >_> Also, Yay Pengkitty!
You're comic is very clean, now that you mention. I guess it's one of those things I've never paid full mind to but simultaneously and subconsciously appreciated. It's like an action movie where all the adults (their being "good" or "evil" irrelevant) saying cute baby curses like "effin'!" and "friggin'!" I, personally, have always found that simply adorable. So yeah, I really like that about this storyline. Because while I'm not going to sit here and claim to have a clean mouth (I do curse, usually accidentally, but I do), I'm still glad that there's still something that won't totally corrupt (and paint) my vocabulary. XD I know I sort of just went off on a tangent, or however the saying goes when someone strays from topic, but I just thought I'd like to let you know how much I like the clean tongue to this whole comic, just about.
And there’s something about this page. What is it called when something totally blows your mind away? “Exceptional”? Is that the word I am thinking of? I dunno. Let’s not get into my wording skills; you know what I’m trying to say. Well, you will once I say it anyway.
Like, look at all their expressions. Everyone’s. I mean, your skill in drawing faces and expressions has always made me feel a little, “Oh, the envy is eating my soul!”, but today... It’s just something I can’t really even say. Like, if you took all the words off this page, and nobody ever told you what was happening and you’d never read this or any other page... I think you’d still be able to just know, you know? It’s wonderfully portrayed visually, I am trying to say. More so than usual, I am also trying to say.
Okay, does that make sense to any of you? No matter, you know I luv ya to death, Ames. (No homo, lol... Sorry, my friends and I are stuck on that phrase.)
just go for everything you can get you'll be surprised how much positive response you'll get
also, I highly dislike above mentioned people (I reserve the word hate for special occasions)
Well commissions would be a good way to go, your work IS very much worth it! I'm sure you could do that and not charge too much if you feel bad...otherwise I dunno =/
Great comic, Kavonn is awesome. I just thought I'd mention travelers checks can be mailed, if Amelius is okay with giving an address. I'll see if I have some money to spare. Goodluck, Amelius.
Does it help anyone if you look at their profile? Hopefully not, because I checked that guy's profile and from his avatar/front page which are on there, his art isn't anywhere as good as Amelius'. I don't understand why anyone would want to bring another artist down, especially when their own art is inferior to what they are condemning.
Great page, as where the last two, which I must say because I forgot to comment on them.......again....Or did I only miss one? Ah just go with two for good measure.
And on the subject of money, I would happily give you some if I could......But I can't, infact I have no way of transferring money..But anyway, I am sure you can hit that 500 mark :)
And on the rating, I agree on the fact that it shouldn't be M, or teen even, it ain't that adult, just a bit of violence and gore, which, when I was five I was drawing (Badly.) people getting decapitated and what not, so it shouldn't even be Teen in my opinion.
NOOOO KAVOON! Isn't he a little more evil than useless, or is he just tired? Normally he seems to be more patience-like, if theres no jackalopes around... Maybe he dosn't like parties?
Poor Sadick. He just wanted to shoot a demon!
Many guests today. Perhaps you should have them interacting with each other more like what usually happens at parties.
Oooh, how I wish I had PayPal, but I am but a lowly sophomore... But then again, if I DID have PayPal, then I would spend all my money on comics and donations. >.<
LOVING the penguin/furby. He's cute. And the blue wolf thing. Actually, I love the blue wolf thing. I wish to keep him and call him 'Excelsior'. Seventh panel is AWESOME. And is it just me, or is your inking nicer today than usual? I also like the way you did the reflections, it makes the floor look more like it actually has friction.
I don't mean to nitpick...but wasn't Sadick reaching into his coat with his left hand...? I love your reflective floor--wish I could do something like that :( All your characters are so cool and drawn so well! *glee* Man, I wish I could help out with your money problem... Having so many updates would be GOOD! But sadly I can't... *broke* Too bad you can't do postcards, they can get into money upon occasion. (Though not enough. *sigh*)
ZeroVX: Naah, not you! The guy who said fancy coloring is the only reason people read CTV because I have no artistic talent. (coloring IS an artistic talent!)
SarahN: She apologized, but rather insincerely. Sadick is still really sore about being tied up in a hairball (so he missed a little bit of the encounter with LaBelle) and LaBelle is acting out of protection for her "packmate" Sadick. All in all, they've made some rather poor decisions here!
warefish: Hehe, no problem! I don't want anyone to feel guilty or obligated anyway. Well, the plan is really: if I get up to $500 dollars in donations before Nov. 10, I'll draw and update CTV every day for a week or more, no matter what amount though I plan on doing something special at the behest of you readers. The money is to cover the costs of travel and such to the con, or more likely to help with our home purchase if we don't make our goal.
barry everard: Ooo, those are good suggestions! I'd probably sell the original marker-colored pages instead, my lineart pages...well, let's just say I'm a little careless with them after I scan them, so some are a tad worse for wear...I thought of putting the art for the last panel up, but it got stepped on T_T there's really not much space to move around in this here room, so I'm looking forward to my future workroom!
Lovely art work as usual. Know all about house buying and marriage costs... still haven't had our full ceremony due to cost! Have you thought of doing original pages (I think I remember you saying that you drew and scanned in?) on ebay? Post a link in the forums and I bet you'll get a lot of people looking at them. Or putting some books together on Wowio? All you need is a cover... Hope that helps some.
