Sultry Summer Page 85 Sketch

29 August, 2018

Sorry for the late update but it’s been a hassle figuring out how I wanted to do the montage that transitions into the next part. After some tinkering I ended up deciding it’s going to have to be two pages for me to be satisfied with it. The uncertainty for the page also made the actual drawing process itself much more difficult as I was filled with doubt and uncertainty on a lot of things, but it will have to do as is.

At least I have the flow of the whole thing established so I have far more of a basis in mind when it comes to starting the next page. This means one more page after this one before transitioning to the next scene/location.

With this page this scene is technically complete. At most there will be 1-2 more pages after this that just serve to transition into the next scene/location for this part.

I don’t actually plan to show Gwen carrying out her plan in any more than a 1-2 page montage. This means that this part for a fact will be ending in 1-2 more pages after this one, so the next part will be starting within that many weeks.

I made some changes to the previous page (page 82). I failed and made the text gradient upside down, as well as missed a few other details, but I fixed what I immediately noticed and have reuploaded the file.

I actually had the colors for this finished this morning, but the dialogue gave me a ridiculous amount of trouble. I didn’t like how it was before because my intent was less to have Ben appear like he was being snappy and more like he was really enjoying the situation. No matter how I worded it out, however, it just didn’t sound acceptable to me, so it took a million retries.

Also, I mentioned in the lines that there was something I was going to try in the colors. That something was the X-ray in the bottom-left panel, and I feel it turned out okay enough to keep.

Lastly, some of you may have noticed that I activated Disqus reactions in a hope to create a like/dislike system, but it didn’t work as the reactions seemed to be accruing collectively instead of staying independent to the discussions they were in. Since this was noticed I have disabled the feature.

There’s still some things I’m considering different for the colors in the last 2 panels but it simply looks weird in line form so I didn’t want to put it down in the lines or sketch just in case it still looks silly in color. I’m also still a bit uncertain on the dialogue, but it’s too late now and I need to try and fix my sleep schedule at least a little bit before Friday.

I was very unsure as to what to do with this page and thus got a super late start on the actual clean sketching process. A part of me is wanting to rush this part to the finish since it’s so close already, but at the same time I don’t want to cram too much into one page, so it was hard plotting exactly how much I wanted to put into this page.

I was also unsure of the mannerisms to put in this page for Ben, so the dialogue took some time to decide on. Still not sure if I’m satisfied on that front so it may change for the lines/colors, but I did decide it appropriate for Ben to continue looking at the situation increasingly playfully/casually.
