~kh Posted November 10, 2011 Author Share Posted November 10, 2011 Scottish is more rustic and heavier accent than a British accent.You've got it wrong. Scotland and Wales are both in Britain, and as such are British accents. And there's hundreds of separate accents that could be identified as "English". (I'm not complaining that Americans can't identify individual accents from within England- heck, I can't most of the time- but leaving out Scotland and Wales from Britain is stupid.)On-Topic: So I'll be introduced through this? =DPerhaps; it depends on how fast I get stuff done.Marrowman is entirely correct. There is like, so many British accents. I can only really identify about three, though, despite being British myself - Queen's English, chav and Scottish.

~kh Posted November 15, 2011 Author Share Posted November 15, 2011 Huh, I could have sworn there was another post here...Anyhow, with the new forums back up, I have nothing to show for it because I've been procrastinating and playing Halo: Reach and watching the English Dub of Professor Layton and the Eternal Diva.But there was something I haven't posted before, or at least, I don't remember posting. I went back and reshrunk the first comic with Bicubic instead of Nearest Neighbor to make the lines more smooth. While it's still blurry, its better looking than the original one.Anyhow, here is the slightly remastered version. I'll actually remake the original comic at some point later this year.

toastergrl Posted November 15, 2011 Share Posted November 15, 2011 Actually, the new comic looks really horifically blurry. It's like when I first discovered the blur tool, and made a co-author series just to show off my "newfound talent". Heh. I was pathetic, much like you were.BUT YOU'RE BETTER NOW. Stop digging up the past- it actually makes you look worse, because I have it on good authority that the only self worse than your future self is, in fact, your past self.Cue hours of me ranting at my past comic making attempts, etc etc etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

~kh Posted November 22, 2011 Author Share Posted November 22, 2011 BUT YOU'RE BETTER NOW. Stop digging up the past- it actually makes you look worse, because I have it on good authority that the only self worse than your future self is, in fact, your past self.True, but only half true. While its definitely true that there are times where the past should be let go of, the past can also shed some light on both past mistakes and also remind us of better times (something you yourself seem to realize, seeing as IIMT is in and of itself a remake of your original series, IMT).My mistake in this instance was using Illustrator to word my comics instead of directly using Photoshop itself because Illustrator took my originally 900px wide comic and nearly doubled it in width. To resize it, I used Nearest Neighbor to shrink it. A close look at the original comic will reveal that this made the sprites and background themselves are horribly resized and have parts "stretched out", along with giving the word bubbles as well as the text inside them a pixellated sharpness to them.This time, I tried a Bicubic resize meathod to try and retain its original shape, but while the text and backgrounds look fine, the sprites themselves were made very blurry (similar to what Decei notes in the post below). Still, I find it a bit easier to look at than the original one.This is also why I want to go back and remake it: not only will it be a harken back to my original days as a comic maker, it will also let the comic look how I wanted it to look, not how it turned out.The remastered comic, the bubbles are smoother but the sprite is more blurry.And I know the feeling of procrastination. It is a good feeling.I await more!-DONT PANICTrue, that. I'll hopefully fix it all someday.Also, I am fully basking in the feeling of procrastination. However, getting out of it may be the hard part. I am partly done with a comic right now, and with some sort of luck, hope to get it done today. Then it'll be on to another one either later today or tomorrow, and hopefully I'll get a buffer set up for future releases. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
~kh Posted November 25, 2011 Author Share Posted November 25, 2011 Okay, okay, I lied. No comic. I've hit an impasse in making this one: I'm currently stuck with nowhere to go. Its at the sort of position where its not long enough to be released as-is, but its too long to just discard. I'll have to go back and check my notes for punchlines and joke situations and such, play around with it in my head, maybe just start talking on Skype again and see where that goes.I can at least give you guys a preview, though: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

~kh Posted November 30, 2011 Author Share Posted November 30, 2011 OK, sure.I feel like a noob for asking this, but... who's the guy with the Hau between the two Kahis?-- That would be Gatotak, one of the many workers at LLL Tower. Don't worry, its not your fault you don't recognize him; being the slow-producing comic maker I am, I haven't used him much at all.Anyhow, no comic and all that. I know, I know, I'm a procrastinator. However, on the bright side, I have just procured a new laptop for my usage today (thank God for Cyber Monday NewEgg sales!). This means that will I now have 1. A computer that I can actually work on that doesn't freeze up all the time 2. A computer that I can install Photoshop CS4 on 3. A computer that I can work on comics at the college on. All ingredients to increase efficiency and work effort in future comics.Again, had I had Photoshop open without significantly slowing down my computer, you all would have another preview to enjoy. As of now, though, there's nothing.

Some of the assignments they give you are sometimes worse than at school.I was referring more to the option of time; I used to be able to have enough time to both be able to make comics/come up with comic ideas as well as get all my schoolwork done and have a lot of free-time to boot. Now, I'm just mostly gone for half the day and the other half is spent of either homework or other projects like TTV or things like that.Also, if you haven't already, go check out the new 2011 Christmas Advent Calendar.

So I just decided to use the mask. I may end up switching one day, however. Also yes, Meso does have a COv3 Piraka head. I nearly included Potu and Invi as well, but there was no time and in the end they had to be scrapped. They'll probably appear in a later comic, however.I did color them with the Chimoru X colors, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
