This comic is a story about a girl who is having wierd dreams. Upon asking a friend for advice and help on the matter she gets dragged into government plot and blah blah blah.

Yeah, it only has three pages and I'm trying to find and efficient time effective way to draw and color it without spending five hours on the computer, so each page is different. I'm hoping to go with the colored pencils and inked comic, but the pencils might give it a rushed feel I think. So I"m working on it.

So pick apart what little I have up, hopefully I'll update more and give it more meat for you to chew on.

Looks nice. I hope you start to computer colour it later (so it looks better).

I like the looks of the people, but I think you should work on your anatomy a wee bit. It's good, but there's a little you could work on.

Updates Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday's (depends).

This looks good! Not much of it to comment on yet. The pencil crayon work does look a little on the rushed side. Maybe you should try markers or using some nice soft, subtle CG work. If you need help with techniques for CG that will preserve your delicate linework, feel free to ask.

I know how to CG, I can CG effectively, just I don't have time ^^;;

The next page I work on the colouring more and see if it turns out any better, or try to smooth things over some. I just don't have a a few hours to color it, do the panels etc. Cause if I photoshop it i will have to be detailed about cause thats how I am. >>

Hmmm, I know what you mean about CGing taking a long time. That's why I mostly use markers. Problem with markers is the expense though. Don't use the blur tool to make pencils look better. It doesn't work, I know from experience -_-' there's a definite knack to making pencil crayons look good when scanned. It might be to to with types of paper or quality of the pencils, or it could be just a technique thing. I'm not sure.
If you practice CGing, you'll find you get faster though. Also, using a tablet rather than a mouse makes things much faster and easier.

tablets also cost monies. I have come markers, but I don't have a wide enough selection to use them properly.
