Good starts, I would have liked to see more polish from both of you. Itami won this one in my book because it may not have been as pretty but it was far more entertaining. Life happens sometimes.
Wow Wei, you need to get less furious over things like comic fights. :P I'm sorry I wasn't able to do a better job with this one, really I am, but I don't appreciate being chastised like a four year old by you. Both of us could have cancelled this fight as well, and spared ourselves whatever marks we're going to get, but we decided not to and to instead at least submit SOMETHING. I'm sure you know what that feels like, as you stated. This fight wasn't about you, nothing to do with you, it was about both of us and our deadlines, our schooling, our jobs. Our business. So please, spare us your lecture and just relax, I expect that neither of us are feeling particularly steller or proud about the sketchy battles we had to submit, we don't need 'papa-Wei' wagging his tongue and finger at us. Thanks.
I was 'this' close to just cancelling this fight.....I am extremely disapointed in both of you
Five weeks and an extension and this is what you have to show for it?
I understand time constraints and having other responsibilities all too well..I, myself have had more than my fair share of unfinished fights...I myself am fighting a deadline and too many other resposiblities..but it makes me furious that this level of quality is considered acceptable and even worth the votes and praise that you seem to be getting here.......because they are not.....it's not when I do it.....and it's not when you do either
overall it's almost a tie... one has the better drawings, the other has text that is far more readable. one is finished, the other... um... anyhoo. still fun.
XD OMG ITAMI AWESOME!! I loved your comic, it was adorable. I wish I had finished mine, its so boring and stupid in comparison. *laughs* Good job sugar, maybe one day we can rematch!!
a little dissapointed that both weren't finished...but i like the content in both! ;3
better quality from wyvern, but i thought rikun's was just a bit more entertaining.
finish the fights up next time both of ya, okay? ^__~
.. XD Lmao, Itami definitely gets extra points for humor. The last page killed me.
Kali: Damn you! Finish your battles! Still, gotta give you credit for taking more care with backgrounds. Since it's unfinished I don't really know where I could critique, XD so I'll just go with this - work something out! Five weeks, I don't know what kept you from finishing this. Your anatomy isn't too bad, so I'd try to start focusing a little bit on perspective - rulers can make a world of difference. Not just for straight lines. They're fussy at first but once you get used to them you can actually work faster. (Or at least I think so, I get a whole lot more finished with a ruler than I do freehand.)
Time wise, and as many times as I've said this in conversation with everybody else, when I start a battle I loosely write down in a notebook or on a calendar what I'm going to do on what day. Whether it's sketch and ink a couple of pages over a span of three days, or sketching a single page over two. It really helps me make sure I have enough time to get everything done. And so far it's worked (well, most of the time. XD Sometimes life DOES get in the way, and life comes first).
Itami: Lmao, this is great. I feel like you've gotten better since your previous battles. But still, practice practice practice. I can't really tell you anything different from what everyone else will. Anatomy, backgrounds. Maybe a little bit more detail?
I don't know if you carry a sketchbook around or not, but I was thinking about it the other day, and finally decided that I was going to start carrying one again. I never doodle anymore, and I remember years ago I improved a LOT faster when I was doodling daily. I still think you're getting better, but your battles are so far in between, and I never see any work from you between them. So yeah. If I'm right, and you're drawing as little as I think you are. XD Drawing in general would help, a lot. I could also be full of it.
