Oh, I see~
You could always do something like… Syn tell Leo that if he doesn't refer to her name more often, she'll have to issue a punishment to him.

Don't worry about it. The time want I Leo to start referring Syn by her real name should be in a moment where the trust and friendship between to two is truly forged. Like the result after big moment. It's probally one of my favorite literary devices ever. Every time I notice one in a comic, I just get this warm feeling inside.
Ah~ I get it. I love stuff like that since I an overly sensitive kinda person. … and I cry easily. lol
I've actually got a few ideas, but they're all half formed since I've no idea where you're going this arc.
I don't think that's going to be happening for a looong while. Not even in this arc as it's more character intros and heavy foreshadowing.
Yeeesh.
…
Good luck~
Think of Robin she first jointed the crew. Of course my story isn'y going to be a rescue arc from government assassins or something like that, but it's the trust and nickname thing.
And also.. I should really send you some of my comic files. Well my favorite ones that is.
But this time it's shy little Leo? Aww~
… comic files? :D
Like it's a format used for reading comic books on the computer after you download a program to read them. My recommendation is a bit "smut" at times, but the sense of humor and emotional/epic main story is good stuff. Empowered _ U mus reed it.
I gave them to Sami once, but she kinda vanished off the face of the internet D: She was always forcing me to look at yoi.. youi… whatever you call it.
Oooh~ Send it to me via pm. Who knows, I might like it.
.. what did happen to Sami? Even her dA's been deactivated. o__o it's called yaoi, btw. blech
Hmm.. I never sent a file without using something like MSN or AIM. I'll look it up.
Thank you~ <3
Dumb question. You know how to open .rar files with Winar or any unzipping clients?
… unzip the what now?
Files that look like a stack of books, or a file with a zipper on it.
I have no idea what you just said.
I know nothing about computers. Nothing. :|
Hmm. Okay.

That's the reader you need for the comic books. Let me see if you can open that.
Mind if I do that tomorrow when I have more time?
Gotta sleep? Wow.. 5 AM here. Alright.
Nah, but I wanna read something and by the time I finish it'll be time for me to get to bed.
3am here~
I have a question. In part nine, there's a flashback. But is part 10 and onwards also part of the flashback?
Part nine, "why" should have a question mark, and it should be "their decay." In part 10, the title "Too go on the go" should be "to go." I think "This is Evi, your new and will-be-fav announcer girl" sounds awkward. I think "soon-to-be fav" works better. It should also be "thorough sweeps."
Damn, you're doing your job nicely, Mari. o: /applauds

1st question: Obviously after since Syn meets Leo immediately and recognizes him. Is it that confusing? I know it's different depending on the reader. Heck, I thinking of a different bordering style that would indicate flashbacks, but I'm uncertian now. There's the case of all black borders(and screen tone to indicate the near end) and no white space that mangakas do… Anyone got any suggestions other than that?
Everything else: Thank you. I will add those to the notes.
You're on just in time, Hiroy. I'm gonna add some finishing touches to the first page of the comic before uploading it (which should take less than an hour… if my scanner cooperates).
Ohh. I'm always on time for stuff it seems. Cool :)
While I'm always at least two hours off. GAH
But yeah. After that I'll get started on the second page. Outlining these takes longer than I thought, only because I want the panels to have strait lines and using a ruler takes time.
Yeah. rules(ruler stuff) are a bit of a pain. Even the format I'm using. I'm sorta glad my facial expressions and stuff is a tad bit inconsistent as sometimes I gotta distort the original drawings to fit on some panels in the template. I don't think anyone could notice that though.
Not really. Honestly, I thought you were drawing the panels by hand, lol. It's a template?

I figured that was probably the case, I just wanted to clarify that it wasn't a continuity error. Syn references the books when she runs into Leo, but without that one line, it'd be impossible to tell whether we're still in a flashback or not, especially because it's only three days, and not years of noticeable differences. You don't necessarily need to do entire black borders, but if you wrote "flashback end" at the bottom of the page, you'd save some ink and still get the message across. That's only one suggestion, of course. If a character is framing the flashback, dialogue can just naturally distinguish between the present and past if done right.

I fold a printer paper and then draw the lines with Sharpies needed for paneling. After that I fit them into the digitnal template while still keeping the seen drawn lines… to keep that traditional feelings.

Hmm.. I think I can add "flashback end" above the last panel. That should do the trick. Or some term related to clocks instead of "flashback end". I'll think of it.
And ink? Never and issue with templates.

cheater Interesting~
Okay, I've finished the final touches. Now I just need my scanner to work with me…
I drew the panel myself, so it's not cheating :D Hehehehe
And oh.. Use your bat incase the scanner is being stubborn.
My big, scary rubber black winged bat? I wish. I lost it a while ago. It was so cute. D:

You mean a baseball bat? But I thought bats were supposed to break things, not fix them. :ermm:
Some machines need a good whack. If you put it out of its misery, then it saves you some sanity.
Just ask my TV~
damnable thing
I remember hitting the library receipt machine once, and it worked. But you two sure like hitting things a lot don't you?
Not me. But Hiroy…
/thinks back to his comic about hitting and/or killing stuff
Don't bother guessing who. You know already.
Dervish's horns look freakin' awesome. <3
And now we have a complete set!
They are more like wing bones than horns, but horns nonetheless.
Either way, those look awesome.
I love how each monster has a completely unique horn design.

Hiroy, that looks amazing! Holy scheisse. Alina and I look like two villainess masterminds, ohoho~ (lol, and I even have that jacket at home!)
Too badass for words, dude. You rock! whipcrack
I love how each monster has a completely unique horn design.
Same here! I particularly like how Alina's horn wraps around her head, very creative. I might color this picture later, if Hiroy doesn't mind–it's just that damn awesome. ^^
Heheh. Well, I decided to make the sketch at (cheap) commission/art trade level in detail. Glad you like. I'm even more glad that this means more art from you. I'll be prepared this timeorders a heat proof shirt
And yes. I really like the differences in horns. Can't wait to draw more detailed sketches of the others… e1n's "horn" is a bit funny XD
(go ahead and color it. It's yours afterall :) )

Alina's are really cool; when I looked at them I was thinking 'why didn't I think of that?! That looks awesome!' lol Mine were inspired by a ram's horns.
Oooh~ I'd love to see this colored! I don't think he would; I colored a pic of his and he like it, so go far it!

More art is always good!
And, wait. I don't think I've seen you draw e1n's horns yet, Hiroy… o3o I can't wait to see more of us, though!
Thank you coffee and can of Coca Cola.
Fist bump hell yeah! lol Leo just keeps getting cuter and cuter with every comic. And I love seeing Leo's and Syn's relationship evolve~
Also, great backgrounds. I'm loving King's office~
*thump *
Thumps back
Hehe. It's kinda fun when I think about Leo's apparently "cute" nature. Aside from Richter, he's the only male main character but far from "manly". I thought this was an issue at first, but I can live with it.
It's not bad; in fact, it's probably a good thing. Cute characters tend to get a lot of fans. xD At least he looks masculine. Well, I mean, at least he looks male. lol Not like a girl.
Well, the masculinity probably comes from all the characters his appearance is based out of. One day, I'll make a little character "retrospective" series that reveals little details about the characters.
