Ayame that's awesome XD!!

Just a quick update before i run off again to say i am only 2 PAGES AWAY FROM COMPLETING COMIC That'll be 32 pages of full color madness. Sending it to the printers on Monday morning. I hope it looks good printed!

I am so exhausted lol. Exhausted yet chomping at the bit to update this website and stuff. NEGLECT MAKES ME SAD
I should spend a week drawing NiGHTS afterwards! Try do a pic a day... Need to keep my flow.

I hope these last couple of pages get done fast!

[Meggiemaccat]

*bounces excitedly around* YEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!! 8DDD I'm planning on asking for a copy of this for Christmas, but I suddenly feel it will depend on how comfortable my mom feels with putting this on a credit card. ^^;;;;

[MidgitLD]

[animejosse]

I demand photos!

[ayamemaiden]

Me too!

[Feniiku]

Hope you don't mind me imgaing this here trip, but after your tale of the EPIC DOOR CHASE SCENE I had to do it XD

[TRiPPY]

AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA XDDDDDD!!!!!!!!!!

THATS EXACTLY HOW IT WAS!

You rule! *dies laughing on bed*

[Maki Izumii]

excellent. What kinda paper did Ka-blam use for your comics? *considering using them to print Demonguard ohohoho*

[TRiPPY]

Their paper is odd but works really well with dark colors. It's sort of thicker than regular comic paper and sort of... waxy feeling. Not high gloss but very saturated deep inks. The blacks are *BLACK* and they print incredibly sharp to the pixel , especialy on the front and back covers. The cover paper is glossier but thinner, looks beautiful though. One tip though, dont make a back cover black (like majority of black) and the other side of it white- as the heat from your hands will make the corners curl up because of the saturation of the ink. (sort of like when you print out a picture and pin it to your wall). It's annoying but it's trial and error Next time- lighter back cover lol.

Its tough work but always worth the effort in the end.

Right now I'm building imagni.com and its turning out great ^^ Might be able to open it before Auchi! And even sell Engelbaum a few days earlier than planned...
zohoho.

[MidgitLD]

HO ho ho. This is what this midgit likes to hear. >3

[The wise Kitsune]

*Jumps in chair* I cant wait to see the website!

[Maki Izumii]

I just hope it doesn't blind us with the EXTREEME TE- I mean RAINBOWS D:

[Wolf]

So, I haven't missed my chance to buy a copy, then? XD I haven't had a chance to drop by in a while due to school, but I really wanted to make sure I wasn't too late today. I needz the Engelbaum! D:

[Maki Izumii]

from what I've seen, the comic will be available via print-on-demand (like on lulu) after the convention anyway- no-one will miss out

[Handy Candy]

Zo ho ho! Go Trippins go!

[TRiPPY]

Neaaarly neaaarly done now! DiGi has been awesums writing up everything i need to explain on the site, unlike me he can actualy GET TO THE POINT *lmao*. I'm terrible with summing up entire stories into 1 paragraph, he on the other hand is great at it. Thank god for writers! Things are so much easier to complete now *happy*

Need to finish off the store page today annnnd the galleries, then thats that. But i also have to gut the entire house today for leaving on the 6th... so that'll be fun.

[Arctides]

Stop teasing us, woman. D:
I'm dying to read up more on this..
DYING, YOU HEAR?
You've turned Engelbaum information into my insulin T_T

OSHI- GET THIS MAN SOME BRUCE INFO, STAT!
Uhm.. HE HAS BLONDE HAIR.. or does he? muahahaaa

[Feniiku]

I'm not gonna be around for the website lauunch D: I'll (hopefully) be in Glasgow on Thursday, checked into my room and getting ready lol.

btw Trip dear, I ninja'd a few more badges from the site, if you'd noticed, so that I have those to come back to afterwards XD And I still have those sweets from SoS for you believe it or not XD They're rock candy, so they'll be fine


Can't wait to get my hands on that comic :3

[Meggiemaccat]

What I want to know is who's turning up on the page now, but I can wait... *bounces in place like a wind-up-toy on expresso* Wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!!!!! 8DDDDDDD

[MidgitLD]

Lynne, you don't know how many tears of nostalgia I shed over listening to the background music. <3 Brings back the good times of way back when and adds a new fresh layer of awesome to it. Soon as Paypal clears my money, I'm going to have a copy. TO WHICH YOU SHALL BE SENT AND AN AUTOGRAPH DEMANDED OF. D:

[Wolf]

D: That's a fantastic idea. Lynne, Niyazi, would you both be willing to sign my copy, too?

[Nemoide]

I just placed an order for Engelbaum from IndyPlanet.

I am excited!
The preview images look totally fantastic (as in TRiPPY deserving of being the next comic artist superstar) but I imagine it will rock even harder to have it physically in my hands.

[Meggiemaccat]

Whyyyyyyyyyyy must you teeeaaaassseeeee mmeeeeeeeeeeee??!!!! D: *spazzflailing over that thing she can't say for fear of spoilerage* Why is he in the fanart section when he's not at all in the official art?! The mixture of old-school Imagni with the new is confusing me over whether he's in on this or not. XPPPPP *still not gonna say/ask it directly*

EDIT: I do apologize for my initial reaction, but I squealed with delight seeing him in the flash-by thinger on the homepage and then very suddenly realized he was only in the fanart section. You'll find the obligatory glee-copterage from me in the comments on your deviantART journal. ^^;;;

[Handy Candy]

Maybe instead of everyone sending Lynne their books to get signed, Lynne can offer signed book plates? :3 They're like tiny postcards with art that you glue into your book. They used to be for putting your name on (and are also called ex libris) but some people offer them when you buy their books now. XD

[Avenrir]

D: no-one else who went to Auchinawa has said anything yet? Then I guess it's my duty! ( I'm willing to bet they're all like... still on the bus/train/plane home, or sleeping or something. Bwahaha for living in Glasgow by default! )

*cough* anyway, that out of my system, I'm gonna say: The comic rocks, seriously. The print quality is insanely good, it honestly looks like the sort of comic you'd pick up off the shelf from your local Forbidden Planet or the like. Very, very professional.

There's so many little touches in the art, too! Each time I go through it I'm noticing details that I missed the last time! And I totally want a poster of

Spoiler

Monster-Pia

. ( not sure if that counts as a spoiler but I'm playing safe! ) XD

TRiPPY, DiGi, you've created a monster. A monster of awesome. Good job and keep it up! =D

I give Englebaum a Glaswegian headbutt of approval.

[Golden Charm]

My god, haven't been here so long I had to go through like something like 20 pages of reading. XD

Loving the comic, but right now I'm stuck between a huge moral dilemma, do I keep it sealed or open it to draw fan arts of it.....as I'm suddenly inspired to do so.

Otherwise, pretty tired right now, so I'll think about it in the morn and say, keep up the awesome work, guys.

[MidgitLD]

: D Buy a second copy online to crack open. <3 Give Lynne even MOARZ of u's monehs!

[Golden Charm]

I totally should, I wish I'd though of that at Auchi. XD

[Nemoide]

IMO buying a comic and not reading it is CRIMINAL!

Maybe buy a second copy to "spread the gospel" though...

[Golden Charm]

The comic is still sealed, but I have read it.

I just don't want anything bad to happen to it, as well, judging by the Fleetway Sonic the Comic, I used to have, comics seem to have mishaps a lot in my house. XD

I may seriously consider ordering a second copy to reread as I wish, though as I do agree...as I'm sure does my memory to study and refresh the things I forget.

[ayamemaiden]

I just ordered the comic today!

[TRiPPY]

Thanks

[Nickbot]

So I need to order a new paypal account due to me not remembering mine. So a little time before I order an issue. Should be fun. Now back to cleaning/making my art room. Cheers
