Stickopolis -- Fighting Evil so you don't have to

Eleven! Prime number, prime comic.

June 22, 2005

Eleven comics! Didn't think I'd get this far, did you? I'm not I sure I did. I think I'm finally starting to tire of counting them as well. I'll have to think up a new theme for the headline.

I think I've found a faster way to color the comic. This time, coloring only took about three and a half hours. If I use the magic wand selection tool to clean up the whitespace, then it works nicely for selecting areas for coloring as well. I'm concerned about strange color artifacts showing up, but this comic came out pretty cleanly.

That doesn't solve the problem of the colors I choose being rather lame, but I figure, one problem at a time.

There's an interesting side effect of my chosen comic size in that it enforces a sort of discipline on my writing. I tend to wordiness, but the format of the strip simply doesn't allow me to indulge in that. If you think this strip is wordy now, you should have seen what I had originally written. If a comic is only words with no room for a picture, that's ok, right?
