spqrblues: (Blues Chapter 3)

The only way to travelI should have the inking done for Chapter 3 part I at least by late tonight. In the meantime, if you want a spoiler, you can see the pencil sketch.



It'll make more sense when I ink it. Maybe.

I read all of chapter two in one afternoon. Time well spent! Awesome stuff.

You've got a real knack for picking out what parts of the story to leave in and what to leave out, balancing plot and story advancement with the needs of dialogue, wit, and drama. And I like how you compress and decompress time (in the gutters!) for the reader. Well done, well done indeed.

Thank you so much, both for reading through chapter two and for the kind feedback. When I started, I didn't quite realise how much of a challenge it would sometimes be to get the story across in a small number of panels. But I'm always glad to spend time in the gutters for my readers :)

I might not be able to maintain a daily schedule for chapter three, but I'll keep things moving along as fast as I can!

All best!

OMG I love the designs! Awesome Egyptian (Alexandrian, if you will, with heavy roman influence) dress! LOVE IT! Yay! Can't wait to see the final product!

I had to channel my "what would a fourteen-year-old Roman girl imagine herself wearing as the Queen of Egypt?" sensibilities for that one :)

That first panel, in colour, can be the logo for Chapter III. (grin)

Oh dumb! I didn't notice the new Chapter III colour logo icon. Very cool.

Carry on. Nothing to see here.

Actually, that's the old "Herculaneum walkthrough" icon, with a "III" stuck on. I'll have to create a brand new one for the new year :D

Her "Antonius" looks a lot like Felix. Hrm?

And we thought she was such a proper little girl. She must be spending too much time in that "other place."

And there are probably naughty frescoes all over town. Corrupting our Empire's youth!
