Rone Rivendale-where\'s this badmouthing? I just read through all the comments and not one person badmouthed him. People were being fairly understanding from what I can see. The harshest comment probably came from me and even then I was speaking as a friend who cares and Rofl acknowledged he knew where I was coming from.

OMG, I can not believe certain people are actually badmouthing roflqu for not finishing a comic because his friend was in an accident. You REALLY need to step back away from the tablet and get a life. There are WAY more important things than Void. His friend comes first. I appoligize for them, that\'s not kewl.

zsa- You know I love your work!! I\'m totally gunning for you to win this! Theres only a couple things I see that could help make your comics even more awesome (its not very time consuming either =P)
First off just grab a ruler and loosely rule out the handmade font, so it looks cleaner and more pro. Think consistent! Write out your text before you finish your bubbles, so you\'re not forced to squeeze in the text. Keep using it though because the style of the writing really fits your art!!!! The more you do the text the more comfortable you\'ll become with it.
This doesn\'t actually require any work at all =P I notice that every panel you draw is packed with line work from top to bottom. Learn how to pull back your panel shots a bit and throw in some white space. Sometimes you can even omit a background in some panels just to provide emphasis. The main reason why I\'ve pointed this out is because when you pack every panels from top to bottom with in depth line work, all of the panels together will appear to bleed into each other, and that confuses the reader. Try to limit yourself to 2 to 3 detail intensive panels in a 5 panel page. Establishing shots are great for detail intensive, while you can play around, open up and add in some white space in character interaction panels =P
ROFL - Sorry you weren\'t able to finish yours dude!

Rofl: A general tip for getting a nice, even tone with markers is to color in tight circles rather than back-and-forth motions.
Take it easy :>
Z: Wonderful artwork. :O The colors are really beautiful. I am extremely confused as to what happened to Sweet Itch, though!

Thanks for the crits, guys!
Elio: I see what you mean, and in that panel in particular, to worse things, I even forgot to add a sound FX or something, to help it. As for the last two panels, that was another pacing problem, it\'s like.. Sweet Itch was reestructured into other virus now, instead of being exactly a flu one.
Craquu:Yay! First fan!!
Phill: Thanks man! I\'ll sure beat the crap of my head for a better story next time! I\'ll also have more time to plan things out.
Jong Bon: SHHHHHHH!!
Lucky: Thanks! I am trying to get the hand writing ok, but it\'s a bit hard, it seems. I\'ll still stick with it, but I\'ll try to make it look good with the passing matches!
Thanks a lot, guys! Keep it coming!!

Rofl: It sucks it had to turn this way...
Zsa: I love you...
...Pfff...well I really love what you do. Great saturated colors! (Some will say not to do that, but I say you keep at it man!) The flow was a bit fast, but since you had a week I\'ll shut the hell up. There\'s one thing I found annoying while reading your battle and it\'s the handmade font. You lost points for that. But other than that: this is the quality I like to read here in Void.
Needless to say my vote goes to Zsa.

Don\'t feel too bad now Rofl, shit happens in our lives that makes it so that we cannot finish comics, so take a small break after this round, and do some practice sketching while you\'re there. If you want my opinion on your fight, feel free to AIM me bud.
Zsa: Nice, your inks really do seem to pop well when combined with colors, but for the inks I\'m just thinking of what I said with Pothole vs. Dan. You\'ve got the skills to win this no doubt. Storywise... meh... I think you gotta wow us with the story next round, cause that\'s the only thing that\'s keeping you from being the man to beat in this tournament if you ask me. Try to avoid the common story that everybody is using in this tournament (Meet, fight, and kill) and really give your character that extra push he needs to become class A material or better!
Rofl, keep strong man, you\'ve done some good stuff for us on void and really inspire others to battle. Zsa, I\'m rooting for you all the way in this tournament!

Zsa - Awesome comic, great quality for a week battle. I love your work in color much better than b/w. My only crit I have right now is be more careful with some of your drawings. I had to slow down and make sense of some of your action (like page 2, panel 5). Your highly stylized drawings are cool, but with them comes a responsibility to make sure they translate well into readable images right away. Also I\'m kind of confused on what\'s going on in the last two panels of your comic.
Overall great work. Keep it up rock star.

Dawg: @º @ I wish! (and hope, haha)
Angie: Thanks for the crits a lot! I had a bit of time constrains and had to fit the plot in four (or less) pages, so it kinda resulted in some pace gaps. I\'ll hopefully get past it next round, if I get through, that is.

Rofl, no one wants to hear your excuses and apologies. Besides, you should never have to apologize.

Zsabreuser-your art was very nice here and I\'m impressed with what you were able to pull off in a week. I think it would have helped quite a bit to slow the pacing down just a little. Having the guy with Sweet Itch inside of him reacting to having him inside of him (god I hope I\'m making sense, this is difficult to word) prior to just exploding, would have helped with Sweet Itch\'s introduction. I think the many closeups made what was going on just a little hard to read. Try zooming out your camera so we can see what\'s going on. You had an interesting solution to dealing with a virus and I look forward to seeing what you do in the next round!
Rofl-There\'s really not much I can say. I understand that something terrible happened that interfered with your completion and I\'m very sorry for that, but this is an ongoing thing for you. Please stop getting in over your head and try to only take on things you know you can handle. Take care, and I really hope I\'m not coming off as a bitch, I\'m saying this as a friend.

I’m sorry I couldn’t finish this.
I’m writing this today at April 21st. One of my dear friends got in a car accident earlier today and I spent most of the day there.
As a result, I couldn’t finish everything, so this is everything that is uploaded. I kind of lack the will to do anything right now except talk to a certain individual.
Best of luck to you, Zsazsa, I hope it goes well.
I’m so sorry to everyone who had faith in me.
I won’t return to battling for some time.
For those who ignore comments, I put it in the first page of the battle as well.

Squid: :DD. As for Sweet Itch, he exploded because as a flu virus, he is a retro virus, which evolve by analizing other virus.. so he tried evolving by analyzing Anthropos Virus, and doing that, he HAD to become Anthropos virus.
Marley: thanks a lot! I really appreciate the tips, specially the ones about the backgrounds and stuff, maybe that can give me even a bit more time to work on the drawings! As for the handwriting, I did use a ruler, but just to use as line to write on.. maybe I\'m just doing it wrong then! I\'ll try to work better on them!
Rone: Thanks man!
Joshua: Glad you liked it man
Onto the next door I go!!
