Re: Ask Gisele, Dave and Shouri Questions Here
It looks like not. After all, they'd both have had a lot of explaining to do. Anyway, if Dakota involved her family in Mel's upbringing, they'd have been at risk from Anastasia's tendency to little schemes - and I'll bet that Anastasia wasn't the sort to be very fond of her own past family.

Who's the long-haired blonde behind Amelia in this strip? http://www.magickchicks.com/strips-mc/i ... chapter_12
Subsequent strips make it clear that Callista's the one holding the bottle (presumably, the bow's in her other hand), and Gabrielle's behind Tandy with the notepad. But she seems to vanish thereafter, and the camping trip only has six council members (Faith, Sandi, Tandy, Amelia, Gabrielle and Callie), which is said to be the "whole council". Did she vanish in a puff of retcon?
[Tags don't help. Only Sandi, Faith and Tandy are tagged: and that's actually Jacqui, not Faith!]

Very Good Question Zippy ...
Yeah I always wondered about the missing 7th member of the council as well (the blonde with both hands on the table). Guess she not COMBAT READY ... Maybe she attends the council but not member of the council? Maybe with all the time travel shenanigans going on ... Rain?

First of all, congratulation on your (hopeful) success at Conecticon.
Now what made you draw this?

Was it out of your heart? Someone else asked you to draw it?

Well. Shouri is from Argentina. If you look at her Fragile comic site, you'll see that there is an identical chibi Shou there.
For those curious: my avatar is an artistic rendering of a spaceship I drew for a primitive (by today's standards) multiplayer online game called XPilot. (More about both on my website.)
Bzzz.

Re: Ask Gisele, Dave and Shouri Questions Here
I see. It is just that I saw a girl with the argentine shirt running away from everybody can guess what, and I was wondering if we should strike back. I have to say that I don't follow the Fragile comic and now that I see it and with your words, we remain cool.
And Shouri, we are Argentines. We let other do the "running away" thing ;)

Re: Ask Gisele, Dave and Shouri Questions Here
Like Schürrle???
Anyway, I'm pretty sure it was not meant to symbolize "running away" but "running around madly waving the flag and cheering".

Germany played a great match. They are the champions after all.
My "running away" idea was reinforced when I saw the Fragile drawing. She seems to be still in denial. It takes some time to accept it.

Re: Ask Gisele, Dave and Shouri Questions Here
I think it's more the fact that it has been stated that "the regular update schedule resumes today [Wednesday]." So we have a new (albeit uninked) EC, and possibly on Friday we could get a new MC and Fragile.

No, it was posted just after the semifinal. ;)Downly wrote:Germany played a great match. They are the champions after all.

Technically, it's not a win. Games going through penalty kicks are counted as draws in statistics.

Re: Ask Gisele, Dave and Shouri Questions Here
Yep, that is right. You win or lose as a team.
But I always had the feeling that it is unfair for the goalkeepers. In penalties is where they shine the most.

Question for the artists: How many drawings did you have to do before you got to a level where you felt you could draw professionally?

Re: Ask Gisele, Dave and Shouri Questions Here
Depends on your goal, I guess. If you want to draw a comic that's more newspaper style, you can get away with art that's not as technical or detailed. If you want to draw action, then that's gonna take a little longer. Honestly, if you're doing a webcomic, just start it and draw. There's no better practice. For me, I think I had to draw my run on P&A to get to where I wanted to be, so that's a lot of pages.

Re: Ask Gisele, Dave and Shouri Questions Here
And even at that, Giz, your style has changed and maybe improved over the years since you started Ma3 and EC.

Re: Ask Gisele, Dave and Shouri Questions Here
Yeah, exactly. So, when does one turn pro art wise? I guess it all depends on what you're trying to achieve with it.
