Waaaah! ;-; That is so saaaad. Your comic is way better than RAS' book, because I just know he didn't have romantic flashbacks. Maaan...this is really good.

jarltreri is getting really sad especially since RAS won't have them make up (/out) :CCC

i am really glad you liked it and got the flashbacks. i was worried that i didn't make it clear enough that some panels were meant to be flashbacks... but you did

Yes, when you made them more kind of faint and sketchy, that totally worked. Your comic is the awesome. Besides, I could totally tell what the flashbacks were from. The first one is when they fought orcs in SotS, and the second one is when Jarlaxle healed him after their fight. Or at least, that's what I thought they were. <.< The healing orby one really gets me. That's like, 'waaaaah! whyyyyyy? why is this taken away from me?'

Oh, no, really? XD Then it totally shows! Us shippers will recognize those scenes instantly, then! All I had to do was think of a specific occurrence where they fought back to back that would be fuzzy, and I thought: The orc scene! They both had so much fun!

Then, of course, the tent orb healing scene is incomparable. <3

Yes! You've done a great job with how you split the panels and how you put people into them. I really like how you draw Artemis and Jarlaxle.

I giggled at Jarlaxle using his wand. ... I'm sorry, I always have to.

thanks! since this is the first time doing proper comic-type thing i was a bit worried about the panelling, glad that it came out ok

yeh jarl is so silly with a wand but he still uses it all the time.. i don't think he notices/cares lul

Albuin In reply to bigmachine [2011-01-29 16:34:38 +0000 UTC]

I'm not a pro, but it's pretty good, I say. :]

Jarlaxle is too awesome to care what others think of grown-up men using sparkly wands. That's why he also has the rainbow cape and pimp hat!

It seems to me that the artist is not taking as much time working on the characters, as the background. I would like to have seen these fights much closer in detail.
