Ch5 Pg1: Step 6
🕑 Added 2016-04-26 17:05:30 +0000 UTC A couple days later I'll get an email from Yoko that says "Hey, the page is done and in the drive!" Sometimes there are additional notes like why she made some of the creative decisions that she did, or just some questions about the final product and how it looks.I hop over to google drive and bask in the glory of the finished product (and maybe weep a little bit), thank God that I'm lucky enough to work with such a talented person who makes my art look better than I could, beat my tiny clenched fists against my chest, and tear my robes in a storm of emotion.
Then I take a closer look at the page, panel by panel, and start on that mental list again. Hm, that dark blue I dropped the inks into doesn't work with the shading. I'll have to darken that a bit. The wood texture on the door's threshold might have to be lightened or taken out. It makes things look a teensy bit muddy. I want to add a cloud outside the window in the first panel. That bright yellow on the inks in the last panel looks a little green next to the black. I want to see what that looks like with some reds. Etc, etc.
I try to stick to really minor things, because this is Nytrinhia's product as much as it is mine, and I want very much to respect her work. I'll send her a long gushing email about how great she is and what I love about the page (ie: everything), what stupid edits I want to make on top of her amazing colors, and then wait to hear back for an updated copy.
I won't make her revise a page any more than once, because I don't want to waste her time (she has other cool projects she's working on), and if there's anything else I want to see I can just add it myself (that's the next step - we're almost done!).

wow those colors
It's been an interesting walkthrough. The texture on the back of the chair in the third panel is soooo cooool!

.......................................................... Can I just say I'd very much like to hire Yoko now? Just... throw all my money at her for pretty, pretty colors. (I already throw money at you for other stuff XD )

Wow, you weren't kidding about the colors, that is beautiful!!!!! And so awesome to hear more of your workflow!!! (One of these days you need to list down all the things you're both working on so we can check the others out, too!)

Cool :D It was really nice to see the creative process with your pages. Can't wait to see what this chapter has in store for us (it sounds like a lot of fighting xD)
