Finally, back to the comic. I think I'm about 20 pages from the end. Now I just have to bust ass and get it done. The next four are the turning point of the story. Let's hope it has impact when it's all done.

making progress! I have a friend who has been making a comic book for years now, 1500 drawings so far. You are doing pretty well getting this done!

Gads, 1500 is quite a lot! Tamino is only up to 128 pages at this point and is likely going to be about 150 in total. Thanks, Vince!

e is Hand (yes rub on) lettering the whole thing as well! I understand him watercoloring it all... he's a genius with water colors but hand lettering is too much. He is in his 70's... I hope he lives long enough to finish it!

Gah, those rub on letters! Lettreset, I think... I used to use those for all the Picnic flyers, gift certificates and such. They're such a pain! This guy sounds like John Garcia, if you remember him; making western stories for himself, also watercolored. Poor John died a few years ago.

You and I both on those damn flyers! Where were computers when we needed them most?

I had no idea John died. I remember him well. He was such a great guy and good artist, despite his love of westerns, which I hate. I'm sad to hear he's gone.

So subtle, that shift from a cool background/warm figure to cool figure/warm background, yet when you get to that past panel, POW.

Thanks, dood! That was deliberate. Color is half of Tamino. While Fite taught me a lot about comics in general, I like to think Tamino taught me a lot about color. I hope. :"D

I'd say the answer is "yes", sir, your use of color is growing by leaps and bounds. Ditto with composition.
