LiA #27 - Holiday Shopping Stratagems

...is up.



Going to post this weekly for comment and commentary on each comic individually. I wanted to make comments on the works separate from the thoughts posts that go on the actual site. In these threads, people can comment on this weeks comic and Pie and I will add in any of our individual perspectives.

So here we go:

This one took us quite some time; Pie keeps telling me that I continually get more ambitious in how much we can squeeze into a single comic. What made this one tough was the sheer number of objects (people and items) that are here. The writing for it was pretty easy and it is our FIRST comic that doesn't actually have a script. We widened the margins a bit into what is usually reserved for speech bubbles because of the nature of this one being a bunch of visual gags.

Overall, I'm pretty happy with how it came out. I got more ambitious with the coloring this time and did Bears hair and the fire and effects for the second row, which I thought came out looking pretty well. The guy on the last panel in the Tetris row ended up sniffing the other guys butt by way of Tetris block placement, which I thought was pretty damn funny with that silly grin Pie put on him. Also, I got tired of drawing people and hid a few things into the coloring of characters. lol

I like angry Aeris and "fire flower" especially lol. My favorite part about the Tetris though is the inclusion on the "long piece" lol. It's like "oh, crap, not enough...you! over here! ::pushes::"

I love it!
I too loved the Aeris cameo ( Aeris) I felt so bad for her when Pie torched her flowers, but it was too funny!
Th Tetris thing made me lol. Reminded me of the Simpsons episode where Homer did that with all the crap he bought at that yard sale

Yes the grinning face guy was quite funny
Great comic this week you two

I gotta say, the part where she lights the flowers (right in front of aerith's face mind you) literally had me cracking up. Great pick this week guys

oooh awesome, this is a cool thing to do thanks Wiz!

My favourite part of this comic was how Pie's clothes changed colour when she got the fire flowers
