Information about new comic: Azure Dawn
15 years ago
General
Azure Dawn is my still not quite finished comic project detailing Lynceus' coming-of-age in flashback form, where he tells Lulu about his early life growing up among the dragons of the Glaciermaw Clan.
For anyone still not clear about Lynceus' parentage, let me explain. Naima Glaciermaw, a short ice dragoness, is his mother. She met his father Jahrre, a leatherworker living in a woodland village of canadian lynxes, while traveling the world in a fit of wanderlust. They became a couple, married, and Lynceus was born.
Azure Dawn is done beginning to end with .05 mechanical pencil. I consider it a draft, as much of the art can (and hopefully will) be improved with time. You'll generally see only linework here so far. Please excuse the sketchiness.
The comic is long. I'm currently in the process of working on page 53, though by that page things are starting to wind down.
I also made a serious oversight. Azure Dawn is drawn in a 9x12 sketchbook, whose pages are just a bit too big for my scanner. Once I realized this I began adjusting things to be more compact, but most of the comic may need some on-the-fly reworking of position of text to fit on my scanner bed. Unfortunately, this is probably going to mean that pages might end up messier or, at worst, cut off. I'll try to minimize that, since the story is the most important element.
Please do not hesitate to offer input and suggestions. As I said, this is pretty much a draft, so I'm open to ideas. In fact, PLEASE COMMENT. I put a lot of work into this, and I'd really appreciate someone giving me some real feedback. Since this comic isn't going to have anything adult in it, I'm quite certain it's going to be ignored by 99% of the site. So to those remaining 1% of people who actually click: Please leave some comments. Thanks.
I'll probably begin posting the comic within the next day or so, a few pages at a time. Hopefully I can figure out that whole fancy HTML trick for the "next/previous" links.
Stay tuned... this is my biggest project yet.
