Page 1323…
Happy Tuesday!
Sorry for the slight delay in today’s page (I’m 8 hours late from my normal midnight posting).
I think it’s time for a new computer…sigh.
I wanted to remind you all that I’ll be putting Book Five up for pre-orders on Kickstarter this week!
I hope you can all help out like you did last year for Book Four. It only took 75 of you to make our goal. But I hope more of you can join in this time.
Here’s the front and back cover art for the book. I hope you like.
Saw that coming a mile away!!
Have you normally used PCs or Macs, Scott?
Yup… you and me both. It woudln’t be any fun if they actually found a body…
I think Nick is alive and many many many many pages from now, he’ll pop up out of nowhere with a real hardcore vengeance against Alex and Nastajia for beating the living crap out of him, giving him a lot of new scars, and taking away his kingdom. But he’ll want to see Alex and Nick dead before he even thinks about taking over Dreamland again, because how dare a human and an elf best an almighty dragon. Heck, I think Nastajia is first on his hit list since she skewered him.
PCs. I use 3D Max. And it doesn’t run on Macs.
Is that Tux the Penguin in the top-right of the first panel swimming face down?
i forgot about them.
that, and Scott did mention that Nic would be back!
Exactly what I was thinking. And hoping!! Nick is too good a villain to just skewer from behind and dump overboard. His demise (if it must be) should be something epic.
I think there’s something wrong with the perspective in the first panel. The mer-people seem too close by. It looks like they’re only a few metres away, while we can see in the last page (and earlier pages I believe) that there is quite a distance between the platform Nastajia and Alex are standing on and the water below.
I used a high focal length (400 mm) otherwise they were just specks.
Hmm…do I see another storm brewing or is it just some dark clouds passing over with the telling of bad news?
[Theme from Jaws: bum bum bum bum bum bum bum bum!]
Nick strikes me as the kind of character that won’t back down forever because he’s been continually defeated, and Nastajia skewering him was a clear sign that she wanted him dead, so I think that Nick won’t stop till either of them are dead.
Heh…Max…Macs…heh…
hey scott do the merpeople breath both water and air?
You did? After everyone was predicting they’d show up to drag Alex out of the icy depths when Nick dragged him in? I figure the merpeople are just late.
“They haven’t found anything–yet.”
“Hmm… Has anybody suggested they try looking down at the bottom of the ocean instead of swimming around on the surface looking up here?”
“No. Why? Do you think we should?”
When I read the first panel, I thought Alex was calling out the the Mer-people. Sorta like “HEY! YOU! THE GUY IN THE WATER!”
That’s one way to be upfront about it
“HEY! YOU! MER-PEOPLE! THIS IS A NO SWIMMING ZONE, GET OUT OF THE WATER!”
Never trust your enemy to be dead until his ashes are scattered to the wind.
Nah, they’re still alive
dun dun dunnnn…… nick is still alive!
i’m kind of glad he not dead yet, i want to see more of him.
Herpa derp
He’ll come back as an undead dragon with the aid of the nightmare realm.
Haha, you’re right. They look like they’re just having a field trip out at the beach or something XD Why ARE they on the surface? ^^;
Speaking of which, why is Nastajia showing Alex this in the middle of a discussion about Nicole and the sword? Is it just to rescue Alex from the wrath of Orion? I sure hope Orion isn’t saying insensitive things to Felicity while those 2 are away =/ What happened to Kiwi, by the way? I would have expected Kiwi to be the kind of person to jump out and say “hey now, you don’t have to be meeeaaan!!!”
About your computer. Have you checked to see how much RAM you have, and could upgrade too? Many be you need to condense the hard drive information, and clean it up too? Those things can help out since I work on computer and you wouldn’t believe my costumers reaction when I tell them that. It would also would help out on saving money that you may not need to spend on too.
On the strip, too bad the body of Nick. could not be found, since I have come to dispised the character on his thirst for power(kind of reminds us what is going on in todays world). But it will be interesting to see him come back even more tyrannical to wipe out everybody for what they did to him…
I have 12 gigs of ram and 916 gigs of free space on the HD.
It’s just that the comp is over 2 years old and my scenes keep getting bigger.
I usually need an upgrade every couple of years.
Having Nick as an undead dragon would be so cool! =)
12GB of RAM would indicate a newer motherboard and an Operating system that can handle that amount (ol XP would faint at the thought of 12GB of RAM heh heh). Might be able to get away with a Processor upgrade and still keep all your current equipment.
Nah. They already did that in WoW, so there’s no way it will be reused here! 🙂
So much detail in this comic. 😀
They both look so pretty in the 2nd panel….err well Alex looks handsome not pretty. lol
Zombie Nic!!
Another awesome thing about dreamland… Super-powered telescoping eyesight!
Alex: “Maybe if the merpeople search deeper than the surface waters. He did sink, you know.”
Nastajia: “BRILLIANT!”
Oh, well then, I take it back, there’s no way that was the final blow. n_n
Test
Well, we all know what that means…
