Ahh~ the holidays. Ants enjoy them too as you can see here from this photo of my office christmasy tree.
So first off, I’d like to thank Amber over at DMFA http://www.missmab.com/ for sending so many nice folks over to check out the comic. I hope that some of you out there reading this will go check out her comic if you haven’t (Which would be hard to believe at this point! Go Amber!)
And lets see, hmmm~ how about we go over a question I’ve been getting. That being, what programs do I use to make my comic. Currently the two main programs I use are Photoshop CS3 for most of the flat work and color and Paint Tool Sai for the inking. Before this comic I’d never really spent any good amount of time inking in the computer and it’s been tough to get used to, but I find I’m enjoying it more and more. It definitely beats having to clean up pencils on every page.
Since I’m much like Jam and not a huge fan of the cold I’ve been spending my non-arting hours playing games here and there. Current favorites include Limbo, Scott Pilgrim the game and Dragon Quest 9. Limbo’s dark style and spookiness was great and kept me going and going and going till the end. Definitely one I’d suggest for those of you out there that can get Xbox360 downloadable content. And DQ9’s old school nature has been fun. Its kinda nice to play a really modern game that has that old RPG feel.
Ooog~ well, that’s all from me this week. Hope you’re all doing well and having a good holiday season! See you next Friday.
My my my, Jam… jealous much?
She also seems to have developed the remarkable ability to materialize winter jackets and hair bow thingies at will. XD
Yup! Jam’s ready for anything at all times… somehow. < X D Jacket... sure! Hair done up... sure! Why not? > X D
how did Jam change into a coat so fast O.O
Also, if I didn’t know any better…I’d think Cream suckered Jam?
Your photo is hilarious, I love your little Ant with the Lego tree X3.
Yeah man Paint SAI is the best tool when it comes to inking. It’s SOOOO much easier to get lines JUST right.
Just a quick note…I love Peach’s eyes in the first frame XD.
Thanks for the comic, this made my day :3
Glad ya enjoyed the page!
And yeah, I don’t know if Cream really intentionally meant to get Jam into the mix… but its been accomplished! Prepare to slog through the cold Jam!
heh, one game on the 360 marketplace is dust: an elysian tail.
kinda nice trailer on youtube, and it’s already out.
Heeee I love this! Let the quest for the blue berry muffins continue!
My lol
Jam is jealous much X3
Wish I could play Limbo, but I don’t have an 360 <:3
Hehe sneaky little lady
Is it any coincidence that purple happens to be the primary color for Sagittarius and Jam happens to have a purple coat? Just a thought =p. Also, if you’re a fan of old school feeling RPGs have you tried Persona 4? It has a lot of classic RPG elements to it, as well as a social link system, leading to a lot of cute scenarios. Anyway, as always keep up the great work =D
Ya know, I wish I could claim I thought of her purple jacket being significant to her sign… but alas… no. < X D But thats very cool! And it does definitely work for her I think.
And yes! I have Persona 4 and love it! Such a great game. I still need to finish that one… hmmm… might put in some time on that one this week.
Thanks for stopping by! Happy holidays!
You as well =D Make sure to stay warm.
