Page 1227…
Happy Wednesday, all!
Boy…if I have to paint ONE MORE RAINDROP….ugh!
Why did I decide it was going to rain for this battle???
Sorry for the delay for today’s page. It’s a lot of work.
I hope you enjoy. And thank you again for reading along!
I better get back to tomorrow’s page.
Scott
hope the rest of the rock giants have better aim!
yay, first!! 🙂
So Paddington’s been missing on purpose? He’s not suited for war, is he?
“Why did I decide it was going to rain for this battle???”
So you can have a sudden clean up with rainbows when they win.
Well, the Rock Giants are pacifists by nature …
😉
In other words, Paddington:
ROCK ON!
Edem I luuuuuuuv your answer! Made me all giddy… 🙂
Mr Sava,
1) Hang in there man. I can ONLY imagine the rendering process of this pages, but trust me it’s totally WORTH IT!!!
2) Happy New Year! I am happy to find a beautiful webcomic that just lifts up my soul everyday and you (and the Miss, and your boys) I have to thank for it. Really glad to have a comic with substance who doesn’t has to be ironic in order to be good.
3) I love Paddington even more than usual. :3 There, I said it.
Oh, and Fairies are for the WIN! 😛
hehehehehe…. 😉
If the rock giants are pacifists and hitting enemy troops goes against their philosophy, then they should try destroying the platform their enemies are standing on instead. 🙂
Nightmare suggestion for Scott – since it is raining, everyone’s hair should look flat an wet.
Love the gravatar!
And as far as flat, wet hair, I’m assuming your “everyone” means Nastajia and Felicity – pretty much everyone else shown recently either is wearing a helmet or happens to be a Rock Giant.
(Well, there’s Alex, but his hair’s pretty flat already … )
😉
What, so they weren’t missing on purpose? I worry what Paddington will decide to hit…
glad i’m the only one who’s surprised that they aren’t missing on purpose =3
speaking of which, i just feel there’s something funny/questionable about rock giants flinging rocks.. it’s like if i, as a human/mammal started flinging… flesh. which reminds me of flinging puppies ‘cuz where else would i get flesh? or maybe that’s just me ^^;;;
I thought maybe missing by plan. And now it’s time to hit something–by plan.
You decided on rain because it’s draaaaamaaaatiiiic!!!! 😀
Love Paddington!
technically, he is hitting something, he is suppose to hit the castle, right?
Should have told them that from the beginning! Boulders don’t grow on trees, you know!!
Just speculation, but rock giants throwing rocks over the wall, but not aiming at anything? I’d guess that they’re delivering smaller rock giants to disrupt the enemy camp.
If you don’t like the rain, then have Nic pull some fire breathing move at some point and evaporate it all XD then everything would be foggy/steamy! lol, that would be interesting
That reminds me of that Trojan Horse thing…think that it’s harmless, then boom, surprise!
LOL Staj can be funny sometimes… Go, Paddington, go!!! Crush those guards with your boulders! 😀
Ha ha, I just realized Nicodemus is really simliar to Nieodemus; which in Greek means conqueror FOR the people. I think it’s kinda funny because Nic is like totally evil 🙂
He was hitting something. He was hitting the castle, and when all the boulders are gone, then what? Every rock giant is going to “falcon punch” their way through the walls?
I don’t mean to be a pain, but I think the rain in panel 1 is falling the wrong direction, should it be falling something like panel 3, or am I insane?
Love the comic though, I read it every day!
Sorry, I mean panel 4 should be falling like panel 3
Hate to be picky, but it’s something I’ve noticed over the years. When rain hits rock, a lot of the time the splatter is darker than the rock itself.
Scott, sorry for the totally unrelated question, but are you ever in the Toronto (ON, Canada) area? I REALLY want a Paddington plushie, but the shipping cost to Canada is more expensive than the plushie itself @_@
when the whole rock is covered in water, it appears to all be the same color.
the nicest work ever
Hehe. That was my first thought too. He’s flinging Rock Giant Eggs! That’s so wrong! D:
Maybe you’ve seen too many Disney movies where the climax is in a thunderstorm. The Nightmare Realm may lose the battle, but it’s still kind of a nightmare for you.
I’d love to.
Maybe one day, for sure.
SOrry shipping is so much. But Paddington is pretty big (18 inches) and that’s the cheapest shipping we could find.
I want to say that I really like how the rain looks on Paddington and the other Rock Giants.
Humans have eukaryotic cells. Trees have eukaryotic cells. But launching an arrow with a wood shaft or throwing a spear does not seam funny or questionable. A baby, puppy, or a baby rock giant is a live animate object. A boulder or wood pole is not animated and is not alive. The rock giants might be offended that you think of them as aggregate.
Animals were frequently launched from engines in real world sieges. Plague infested horses launched during a siege started the black death in Europe. Captured spies were also used as ammunition. Many fortifications raised honey bees. The honey was a food source but launching the hive was also an effective way to severely harass the enemy.
Rocks are used as ammunition because they have high density and they are often close by. Tallow (extracted from meat) mixed with a little saltpeter, sulfur, quicklime, phosphorus, resin and/or naptha could make a highly effect incendiary round. That would be much more expensive and difficult to transport. Bundles of sticks and fabric coated with tallow could light things up too. No one would think it looked funny.
I think it’s supposed to be a different ‘camera’ angle
I think it’s suppoesed to be a different ‘camera’ angle
sorry wrong post :/
“Dont you just stand there,kill somethin’!!”
-Deakon
captured spys? :O
Nastajia: “And for heaven’s sake, HIT SOMETHING!”
Orion: *punched out by Paddington* “OOF!”
Nastajia: “SOMETHING OF THE ENEMY’S, YOU IDIOT!”
