I noticed the both of you took a more scenic route to really delve into some story development instead of a knock em out brawl, which I dig!
OTAKUTAYLOR- Nothing like starting off with a bang showcasing some of the lovely ladies of void in slinky black dresses. Definitely a gala I want to go to! I really liked your portrayal of Lucy. I know she isn't your character, but you seemed incredibly comfortable with her in your comic. Everything from her attitude, to how you posed her with her baby (the hand over the nose thing is just perfect. Totally something only a parent would seem to know). More often than not, when Voiders are depicting their opponents they tend to get some things wrong. Lucy isn't my character, but it all just felt right. I also want to doff my hat over how you're portraying Tsumi as well. Maybe its the black dress, but she's really embracing her feminine side and looking really cute! I'm so used to her brawny shipping business look its a lovely change. Realy, just a joy to read and oogle.
LEFRED- Stunning. There is no other word for it but stunning. This was a visual triumph. I kept going forwards and backwards-page to page just enjoying the layers and color and general beauty of what you've done here. You should be really proud (and find a way to get this in print!). I love that you're not afraid of trying new styles and execute your comics in different ways. Especially in a tournament with high stakes, this is pretty danged brave! This has definitely inspired me, so thank you. :)
If nothing else, I hope you make it forward so we know whatever happens to poor ol' Lucy!
Ugh, this is so close and a tough call. The great thing is, I will be thrilled whichever way this goes. You both really brought it this round!
Taylor - you draw people soooo goood but where have all the environments gone? I like that you included Ted, how it starts of with Lucy appearing like a responsible parent before the BINGE. :D
Fred - holy shiiiiiittt so feking beautiful. At first I was like "oh no ran out of time for text" and then I was like OOOOHH blown away. also such a good follow up from the last one!
a battle between two of entervoid's best writers, this was great stuff, guys
Fred, generally your writing is what carries your art but this time I'm freakin' blown away by the beauty of your pages
good job you two
I really really wanted to do a fight comic, but it just didn't seem like something Lucy would do. I'm glad you liked what I came up with Le Fred~ And of course, I love your side! You have a brilliant styling to it. The way of conveying depth, shading, and form with the deliberate shapes is astounding. Like... professional looking illustrated story stuff.
AH, Oatkutaylor, as awesome as I think a comic of nothing but Tsumi beating the shit out of Lucy would be, this is better than anything I wanted. The story is very cute, I laughed at the bit with Ted getting his drink and your characterization of Lucy is terribly good. Loved it.
Woooh boy, This is gonna be a tough one. I'm nervous just thinking about what'll come of this rounds comics. Not gonna be able to just draw punches through this one, hehe. Good luck on your side Fred!
