Hello everyone, as you can see this chapter does not have a standard 'greeting'because I do not have the courage to consider it like a full-fledge entry =\
 It is entirely experimental. I looked at various devices for creating comics and came to certain conclusions.
First it's many times faster than I usually do.
Secondly, I will never use it again.
I think that my tools I can handle much better.
Well, let you see for yourself and decide....

I think it's fine. It isn't that much different from your normal layout, is it?

Anyway. The story was a bit short and mostly build up, but had some nice visuals.

I agree with Alter Native. The layout is similar to your usual one and in my opinion it works just fine.

The only thing is the images have a slightly darker tint that makes it a bit hard to see.

 

P.S. "Your mamma" jokes - even the dragons aren't immune to them, it seems.  ?

Thank you ^_^ Well, it was mostly done for the sake of experience, not the story ^_^ 
Too many minor problems and graphical glitches imo... and at the same moment some problems with the resolution of images.
Guess that's the same tool @devious-Drunna using ^_^

Oh, okay. Seems I'm biased a bit :D 
It's just darker, cos of teh Imaginator settings, not becouse of the tool ?
Thank you ^_^

I like the way your conversational panels are set up in spoiler tag #3, but I REALLY enjoyed the bottom two panels of spoiler tag #2. The way you have that single, very narrow panel that gave a lot of negative space on either end of the panel really enhanced the sense of speed  of the dragin’s Dive bomb towards the characters. 

 

I think you need to continue using the tool, it just takes practice getting used to the change in rhythm and work flow. I played around with a different app/program around Chapter 10 of Dark Ascension and puns it to be awkward -  but I forced myself to use it when I was writing Chapter 12 and 13 and eventually it became as easy as my older tool. While there are many things the older app/program does better, the newer stuff in the one I use now far outweighs its cons.

 

If the program/tool you are using is anything like the ones I’m using, the resolution is a tricky thing. The comic book creators I used outputs the pages in this 2K-ish resolution size. It’s fixable if I shoot at 4K, which I’m trying out for the next chapter.

 

Im actually taking a few screen shots of the programs I have used for comic writing and plans to  share my impressions on them through my Drunna’s Den blog :)

Thank you. Glad you liked it. ^_^
You very accurately noticed my feelings from the process, apparently I just need to "get used to" another pace of work. 
"Comic Life" requires a different approach. You just have to choose another angle and fov of the pictures from non-standard (for me) frames. But as you have already noticed - a matter of habit.

It looks good. I like it, although I miss to see some more environmental colors.

Thank you ^_^ Im glad you like it ^_^
About colors - I will consider, thanks :)

To me it's less refined than your usual layout (specially the one demonstrated in your last side story entry), as the text isn't smoothed (it looks pixelated), and the squarer borders seemed to be misaligned. Also the lightning/colors were less cared upon than the usual, but i don't think that's tool related. Now the bubbles and their tails look surprisingly well placed, and the history in itself is quite funny. ^^

Very good entry. Although it is similar to your old style and I like some changes you input, I like your old style better. Also, Agreee with Eva, missed your usual environmental colors.

Thank you Tirloque ^_^ Your first statement is exactly what I am talking about, it may seem to someone not significant or even to be imperceptible, but it does not satisfy me.

Thank you prince ^_^ Which of my “Old Style” are you talking about? I changed the design so often that I'm not sure :D

It's nice to see some humor from you ?

The layout is different, but not bad,

However if you're giving me a choice I like the other way better, only because (this) feels like its been done before, where your usual format (for instance your WoW episode) is not something that I've seen anyone else do.

Also the colors in this seem very drab, Falloutish, where normally your visuals pop with color!

 

I have to say though, I hate to see this recent trend of some of the best writers here second guessing themselves and their work.

It's one thing to always want to improve, but if it aint broke.....

This looks fine but I definitely think your usual format looks better. It sort of reminds me of the old Maker's Mark slogan "It tastes expensive and it is", or in this case "It looks like it took a while, and it did" ?

 

The extra time in your usual stuff definitely shows!

Thank you SpyVsPie ^_^ There is a similar expression in my language, but for some reason I have never applied it to myself.  Thank you once again ^_^
