Less Than Nothing
Buh, wall of text. I can think of someone who won’t be happy about this, but I kind of like it. I could have split the novella up between different panels, but I don’t think it would have added much. There wasn’t much to the scene I pictured in my head, and I hate pointless camera moves, so I wanted to keep it simple, and each revision during the sketching process eliminated more and more panels. It was almost down to a single panel, but, I thought just a little bit of scene-setting would help.
Bah, they’ll get over it or not. If you the artist are happy…then, piffle nothing else matters. What does matter is Merunga’s tone seems defensive. But, what would I, a mere babbler of nothing know. After all, I’m neither the writer, nor the artist.
Well, as they say, the customer is always right. I was aiming for dismissive/exposition, but if that’s not how it looks/sounds, then I, the write/artist, am not happy. This was a rough week, there are some things I wish I had done differently, but I’m content enough to chalk it up to new format learning pains.
In the collected editions, I’ll apply some judicial editing.
Bah, piffle/humbug. It works, art/dismissive, tone/look. I think today really put a good cap on the big/panel thing so far.
Thanks, it’s pages like today that will make it all worthwhile.
