Why, hello again! I felt a little cheap doing just one pencilled page for the bonus update, since I'd said two pencilled pages would kinda count as one. So whether I do the rest in pencil or pen or not, here's the second part of the bonus update. Only fair.
Man I looked forward to doing this page xD Started wondering ages ago how the hell I was gunna lay this one out. But I'm pretty pleased with the result.
I believe I predicted this last page, but I love it. It's absolutely wonderful. Way to go Onix. And the expressions at the top of the page are absolutely awesome.
@ISpamYou: That... kinda sounds like a name for a laxative -_-
Ya, this has got to be one of the more pants wetting moments of Pokemon that I'm surprised gets glossed over so much. I mean, there's a dragon flying over you... and then there's the ground splitting beneath you to admit a terrifying behemoth snake made of boulders to tower over you. If I was in Atty's shoes I probably would've ran screaming to the exit and pushed George behind me to slow it down.
Hmmmmm.... the pencil pages seem softer, fuzzier. Real life isn't so hard edged.
But the inked pages feel cleaner, more uniform.
I do rather like the pencil pages tho, pencil art has always poked at something in me. Appeals to me aesthetically. I'd welcome the pencil pages even without promise of more updates, there's something to them.
/finally logging into SmackJeeves again. Totally your fault.
I love both the pencil and inked pages so I'll be happy with whatever you decide to do :) your work looks pretty either way.
Oh my that is one bad ass looking Onix!! How do you draw the Poke'mon so well!! I'm kinda freaked at what's gonna happen, especially since she's got a smug look on her face :S
I hope Stein scolds that girl for her behavior. The fact that she considered brutally and viciously tormenting another Pokemon as 'just playing' is pretty horrible. If he doesn't, I just can't respect him.
It seems the battle will be intense, really looking forward to how George will handle this one.
Well, duh. If anybody's going to fight, it's her (or the Feraligatr guy). We know all of Atty's Pokemon and he's got no chance to even get a challenge accepted, with DT beaten to a pulp and Pikachu being ineffective against ground types.
oh man oh man. this comic is really well put together after all this time! I've always seen it as a top comic on smackjeeves and never read it because I haven't liked other pokemon comics very much. but liking your other comic I thought I'd atleast give this a shot and yeah, this is some good shit~~ I'm glad I took the time to read it all :3
thank you for all your hard work on this!! >0<
Woah! To think I missed two updates! On regards to the ink/pencil poll, I think I'll wait until tomorrow's page. Kind of want to make a comparison. (Hint: more DT pweease :3)
In all reality, I'm more in support of 2 Penciled pages a week, as I do want to see the eventual conclusion to Atty's journey... Which, at the rate we're currently at, will be in like 100 years if we don't speed things along.
2 Penciled pages a week definitely.
My predictionOkay, trying to make a habit of posting on webcomics, and starting with this since its my favorite.
My prediction for how this goes; George will have something useful against rock or ground types, and will trade for pikachu from Atticus when he loses/withdraws/gets-refused right now.
And then he'll have a pokemon who ISN'T naturally inclined to listen to him, unless he has badges... Knowing the damage he caused last time, this will probably result in a dam being broken and wiping out a city or something.
Not going to lie. I used to just be like "Oh Onix, that's cool, whatev" but that is p r e t t y intimidating. Also, I love Elle's (that's her name right?! I've missed a couple updates /o\) "my savoir is here" look. XD I prefer the inking, but this is great too! ^^
