So, how's the inking look? I'm starting to use my tablet for inking now. I did a few episodes in the last episode on the tablet only because I didn't have time to scan in anything but pencils. It came out really nice, and I decided to use it again, here. It's a lot easier when I do it this way (no erasure marks). But what do YOU the viewer at home think? Better 1, Better 2?
I'm rather proud of Panel #2, and it's one of the better panels I've done without some sort of reference material. The hands are also drawn instead of traced for once. Flip side of thaqt is panel #6, which looks bad if you ask me (She's supposed to be looking down, but I couldn't get that "look" right).
Michael's fall has been in most versions of the end. Most of my characters die from falls, which is something I'm deathly afraid of. Prior to the Enais story, Michael was simply a mage with no spirit guide, and a bit mentally unbalanced.
In the earlier story, he believed that at the moment of Perfect Happiness he would be able to fly, and at that moment, jumped off the building himself.

Congratulations to Mel Hynes, the winner of the Closetspace Cameo auction. She gets a shot in the comic, a few lines, and the originals. A steal at $25.
Hopefully I got her likeness right. I used threeshots she sent me to draw sketches from that, and then made a model from there. With a few more modifications, we had the finished character.
Originally Carrie was gonna ask her about the tray, something along the lines of "That armbinder chafed my shoulders" or some such, and a reply of "It's a lifestyle choice." But when I ran out of room for the dialogue I wanted, I made her more a part of the story, bu having her say things I meant for Heidi to say earlier. Prolly a good thing, since the "one-off" dialogue would have felt too much like "THIS IS NOT PART OF THE REGULAR COMIC."
