Hi dear readers!
Chris (Gillikin) suggested that I go back to black and white if that would help me do 2 comics per week instead of one. That got me thinking...
I also believe that the story is moving a bit slowly but I really cannot spare any more free time to do more than one page (full-colored) per week. But if I scale down the effort I put into each page, I may be able to crank out more pages on Sundays and release them at two days (maybe even three but don't count on it) in a week.
The question I want to pose to you readers is this: Are you willing that I sacrifice a bit in terms of comic quality for more pages per week to get the story rolling faster?
What do I mean by lesser quality? Well, I may go back to the old pencil shading thing I did before but I think it is far easier for me to just shade it in the PC instead using Photoshop. So that means a lesser quality comic will be in grayscale, CGI shaded in cel-type style (like what I'm doing now).
Tell me what do you guys think at the forum here! Emailing me is okay but I prefer you post it at the forum so people can give feedback to what you posted too. Sort of like brainstorming.

Another alternative I had while I was thinking of ways to speed up the comic production is to do half crosswise pages (ala The Makeshift Miracle).
I know it is just like dividing a page into two and passing it off as 2x/week sched. It is, in a way, but at the same time it isn't.
The same story I can fit in one real page, I can probably fit into a crosswise half page. The difference here is that if I do the same layout I did for that half page and do that two times to make one whole page, it won't look very pretty layout-wise. But as a stand-alone crosswise half page, it will look okay. Also, it will still be faster for me because I'll have to draw less miscellaneous filler stuff.
But for those who are hoping for a compiled and published Lovarian Adventures book someday, 2 crosswise half-pages should fit in one book page so this change shouldn't be a problem.
Again, tell me what do you guys think at the forum here!
