Paper Tigers : Ch1 p9

First - Previous - Next

I feel like Donnie in the first panel. heh. Donnie's adorable, but he has a knack for interrupting things, doesn't he? Raph and Mikey are so silly, I love them. And Raph is such a little shit. Dangit sMikey, stop scaring me. He's going to give me nightmares if he keeps this up. wtf is wrong with him. plz don't hurt bab Raph, he's just being Raph. Though, I guess, when you can intimidate people like Mikey can, you don't really need to do anything else to get the message across.  

Rrado rambles- Phew, speedy plot! I've got a lot ahead of me, and having a fast-paced plot helps keep me interested, I think! So, s'all good, but hopefully no one gets whiplash. Page 10 will be the last of this chapter. Again got down to the wire, had to stay up all night to finish this puppy. As in, yes I'm still awake at 9am and haven't slept yet. I could work on it more, but I'm getting too frazzled, so I'm just gonna call it done. I meant to do something more fun with the teleporter, but I just didn't have the time for it. :< Why did I have to go with a big group/bg shot. Why self. I'm doing myself no favors cutting corners because of time constraints! I really don't like having no queue, too stressful. I could have done a lot better, and I had to let a lot more mistakes remain then I'd usually allow. Good thing though, doing this page forced me to work on the 'speed' part of my practice more. It looks alright given the circumstances, and does what I intended, so can't let it bum me out! Next page will be less stressful, at least, and then I can work more 'peacefully'. Clearly I prefer it! Now I know, and knowing is half the battle >D

Art-based stuff, wanted to play with perspective more seriously when I originally sketched this, but I didn't have the time to look up refs like I'd hoped. Poop. Still good practice at least! I decided to give another shot at the more stylized forearm/wrist you see in 2012 and some idw. I like it, so I might switch over to that for the babs at least. Yay trial and error!
