I dunno whether it was seeing the strip in color yesterday or what, but it's like I'm seeing your linework for the first time and it's incredible. Did you get a new scanner or change the way you're scanning your images?
Panel #2 is a masterpiece by the way. Your contrasting lineweights are something to be envied.
Arrrgh! I just noticed Domitian is wearing a Ring of Power... (wait a minute, that was a different story, and he's still visible) Anyway, I'm still sure its a ring of power... he's using it to seduce Felix to the Dork side of the Farce. Now I'm Really Worried. (then again, doing midnight wet-work for a wannabe emperor probably requires a certain level of moral ambivilence to begin with.) DRW.
Domitian seduce Felix? That's better left for fanfic.
Oh, wait, you mean moral and ethical seduction. Yeah, well, pretty much, yes. But Felix is due for a crisis of conscience any day now. Over there... on the horizon... it looks an awful lot like Felix's big "WTF am I doing here? I really am going to quit, see if I don't, I mean it this time" moment.
1. Same cruddy old scanner, but instead of scanning at 150 dpi and reducing it to 72 dpi, then doing cleanup and adjusting contrast, I've been trying scanning the art at 300, 600, and even 800 dpi and doing some of the cleanup at the larger size. And then saving the files in a more detailed format. Experimenting, experimenting :)
2. Thank you ::blush blush blush:: My ego will tiptoe out from its hiding place for a little while.
3. Yipes, I hope I didn't accidentally spammify and delete your e-mail! I'll look again for it.
