Welcome to the home of the TaL webcomic! Updates every Monday.

Click here to see the newest page.
If you're new, click here to see the first page.

 

Also, don't forget to vote for us on topwebcomics, it really means a lot to us. <3 I've been busy moving into my dorm etc, so I didn't have much time for incentives. Instead, you get a key to a variety of Lunelines, for those interested in learning. ;)

Feel free to visit the forums! You can also add us or post a review on onlinecomics to give us your support that way. :)

So, here's the first update of the new schedule. I'm glad we got internet up in time to update, and I managed to get a page done this week. This will be the first real week of school so we'll see how well things work out for updates, but I have my fingers crossed. :)

For those who are curious, I just transferred to Cogswell Polytechnical College, and today is my first day.

Anyway, take care all! Enjoy, as always!

Just to re iterate, updates are back to once a week for school. Specifically, Monday will be the update day.

In other news, I forgot my dip pen at a friends house, so todays was just drawn with microns. Ink blotches weren't a problem this page, at least. ^^; Also, had a brief chance to meet up and brainstorm with Lara a bit yesterday while she was in town, which was very fruitful. She's hard at work on the about section. After its up I'll repost the poll with the new options. ;)

There were tons I was thinking of posting before, but I can't remember anything I wanted to say now. @.@;; Oh well. Enjoy the page, as always.

The page is slightly wait, I'm sorry about that. Also, this is the last Wednesday update! From now on, the updates will be once a week!

Technically, I'm not moved yet, but I'm going to be very busy, and have to focus on packing, buying what I'll need, etc.

Once school starts, I will have school 5 days a week, and be working 2. In other words, I'll be busy several hours a day, every day of the week, not including homework. There's no way I could update TaL twice a week on top of that, but I'll do my best to keep the updates consistent none the less.

Keep enjoying the comic, love ya all!

My computer now has a comfy anti-virus, and as much as possible was removed. Of course, it got into the very system files, and remains, blocked from Norton from doing much other then causing occasional performance issues and sending little alerts to the anti virus software. Still, better then data migration and OS reinstall. I might end up really needing a new computer anyway; this one was never new and its really showing its age.

I actually switched to google chrome from firefox, as firefox is apparently a massive program and doesn't work well on a computer as old as mine. So hopefully that will help things too.

Also, I saw Scott Pilgrim in theaters the other day. It was geeky and amazing. I never read the comics, but it was visually the best I've ever seen a movie do in trying to capture visuals from a graphic novel. I went in not really knowing what it was about or what to expect and quite enjoyed the no-such-thing-as-over-the-top romp.

New page, last of this scene. Also, I started doing the bubbles by hand, and this is the first I did. You might note some problems with bubble size (though the smaller text as he moved away works for me) which might happen occasionally when I first start, but will hopefully improve.

I said before that this scene the story started picking up, but it really starts going with the next one, especially as this one is more of an intermission and foreshadowing of sorts. :)

Anyway, enjoy all!

Not much else I can think of saying. Still trying to deal with the virus. I'll probably have to wipe the harddrive. :(

Also, recently a by now infamous post by a teenager who ripped off inexperienced artists with sleezy tactics, then posted said tactics as advice on his blog. Several people have already posted about it, but I want to spread awareness of it because its a great show of what to AVOID for inexperienced artists. Also, there is a fantastic breakdown from a professional game developer that has some real, actually very GOOD advice on hiring artists.

In other news, the poll is still mostly not readable. However, the clear winner is; the about section has about 50% of the votes, and others have smaller amounts, so its clear it has the most. I suppose that that project can be started, and when its finished, a new poll can be started and we'll see again then. :)

Anyway, take care all, enjoy the page, as alway!
