Sort of a weird combo job shading this one - Adam started it but had to go to work meaning I needed to take over and finish it. I had been wanting to make some tweaks to it anyway, mostly not liking how Protocol's blade in the first panel initially came out, so not exactly any skin off my bones.
Along that line... Blood! A lot of it! But it's kind of pinkish (and the comic has "blood" in the title) so I guess it's okay! Wait, pink blood... A body has been discovered? I guess?
Eh. In either case, yeah, this is sort of a difficult one to comment on but I'm pretty happy with how it turned out. It's weird, I tend to actually feel pretty down on when we have a glow effect like this while doing them but usually think they look pretty good in the end product. Strange how that works out.
Heheh.... Yeah, really love how this page cameout; one of those ones where it popped the most once I actually saw it in color; the light of Protocol's beam weapons and the sky in the second panel... Yeah, this image pops quite a bit more than I was genuinely expecting it to. ^^
I had an embarrassingly large amount of trouble with that fourth panel. It's one of those things where I know I've seen it a billion times, like the camera is being "revealed" by the person making a motion, but I've seen it so often that I couldn't even think of a particular example to look up. Or even know what to google for it. Wound up doing it myself, but think it could've looked stronger.
I like how the kids are having to slowly realize that Jake's there one at a time. Also that Protocol continues to be awesome. She's in a position where she'd be easy to Worf but really don't want that to happen, so actively work to avoid it. ^^
