So one nice thing about collaborating with Malezor on this comic is, even though I can’t start new stuff until I get my new computer, I didn’t have to start anything for a new Space Warped page. Malezor sent this over a couple days ago and I got to work coloring.
Here we get our first good look at the Time Lord, a character Malezor and I designed together to fill a certain role in the comic. I’m pretty happy with the final result. I think he has a very striking design, and I love how he comes across here in the comic. I hope you guys like him, too.
Here’s the second page of the prologue to Space Warped. In this page Goten and Trunks are sucked into a mysterious blue portal, where they find themselves in a mysterious castle and meet a mysterious nude blue figure. It’s all very mysterious.
I had fun with this page, Malezor did a great job with the interior shot, and I like the overall look of the page. We get to find out a bit more about what’s going on in the next page, which will hopefully be here before too long.
I had mentioned that this comic would move at a different pace than the ones I do solo, and here’s good evidence of that. Malezor got the lineart to me pretty quickly, and in turn it didn’t take me too long to get it colored. So, now we’re officially in the prologue to Space Warped.
I don’t want to get people’s hopes up too high, though, as crossover goodness many of you are looking for isn’t going to be in the prologue. We need to set up how the crossover happens first, but we’re doing our best to get this essential plot stuff published and out there quickly so we can move on to real “meat” of the story.
In site-related news, updates of any kind are going to be few and far between for a little while, as I have another convention I’m attending. Afterwards I’ll be visiting some friends, so for the next couple weeks (until about the 15th) I won’t be able to work the same way I usually do. I’m going to try and get as much done as possible during that time, but if I go a few days without posting anything, that’s why.
If the set-up here seems familiar, it’s because I’ve kept a fairly uniform approach to these commissions (all my the same person), which I’ve done twice before. This time the lineup is (from left to right), Cloud Strife (Final Fantasy VII, specifically his Advent Children design), Asbel Lhant (Tales of Graces), Link (The Legend of Zelda, specifically his Twilight Princess design), Son Gohan (Dragon Ball Z) and Trunks (Dragon Ball Z).
