Kip: Woah!! Heads up!! *dodges, trying to get out of the way*
Drake: *just stands there — flame goes all the way around him, engulfing him*
Kip: HEY! Hey… uh… HEY!! Wow… He’s fried…
Kip: Woah!! Heads up!! *dodges, trying to get out of the way*
Drake: *just stands there — flame goes all the way around him, engulfing him*
Kip: HEY! Hey… uh… HEY!! Wow… He’s fried…
Considering you wouldn’t kill off Drake this soon, I deduce that it’s either magical fire… Or Drake is secretly Chuck Norris.
Drake would claim he’s better than Chuck Norris… since, of course, Chuck is not a Lunarian. XD
More than anything else, it’s hilarious to freak Kip out, I think?
That’s something that doesn’t happen too often… Second favourite Kip moment, next to the pillow-over-the-head incedent. XD
That’s true. Kip usually keeps his expressions under control fairly well. Just goes to show you that despite outward appearances, he really doesn’t like to see people get fried. Even if it is Drake.
Whom he really doesn’t know. I wonder if he’s more upset over the loss of his ‘partner’ or the loss of another living being. Ah well, soon he’ll know it’s fine. We hope. XD
Lol 1 No one beats Chuck Norris
and 2 dont forget that Drake can…uhhh never mind if im right i’d hate to spoil it lol i wish i had a time machine thou.. just so i can get the whole story lol. well great job guys sry for rambling.
I just had a thought…Does Drake’s no-magic bubble also protect the computer circuitry? ‘Cause if not, it’s getting fried…I hope they don’t still have to use it.
Wow. Just wow. Wren, you are so mean to Kip sometimes. How could you?
I also really love Drake’s expression.
Mean to Kip? Me? I don’t write for Drake, Syn does. So blame it on her! : p
i love drakes shadow at the end its awsome! and i like kips face at the last pannel on the next page he is so going to kill drake^^(if hes still alive!) and is it just me, or is the last pannel (no matter how cool it is) a little wonky?
Everything this week was a little wonky, IMHO… I had an off-week for art. But off-weeks for art doesn’t stop updates from being done. So forgive the wonkiness and just blame it on Kip. ^^;
It kinda looks like you’re using flash for the linework?
Great page… x3.. Kip’s expression is priceless.
Comie- That is correct. I use Flash for the linework and the rest is colored in Photoshop.
Woah, wait a minute. Didn’t you said that we should blame it on Syn and not Kip?
Phoenix — Blame what Drake does on Syn (she’s his writer). Blame wonkiness on Kip… since he’s naturally wonky? XD
What? 0.o
*wonks out*
Bad Syn, very bad! XD jk Actually, I think you two make a great team, the storyline is always very smooth. As for the art, everyone has off days. Some days, you just sit down and forget how to draw the characters..>_
Thank you, Tirition! Syn and I will have been best friends/writing partners for going on 8 years soon… so we know each other and our figments/worlds fairly well. As a matter of fact, there’s very little that has developed in any of my stories that hasn’t had SOMETHING to do with Syn’s influence… or at least her allowing me to bring ideas to RP chats to flesh out and experiment with.
I couldn’t have done half as much as what you see here if she wasn’t there by my side to work on things all of these years. That’s why I like to remind people of how important she is in Wayrift, even if she’s often quiet around the website. She’s a HUGE part of the script writing — most of the characters at this point belong to her (up until the introduction of Zemi & Kip, Ben was the ONLY main character I wrote for in all of these chapters!) And she helps me through feedback on page layout and laying down base colors to help speed up the painting process on the pages.
Aww, that’s sweet. You two must be close, I’ve known my best friend for ten years, but if we tried to do anything like that together, we’d end up murdering each other. XD
Yeah, we are pretty close — considering we live so far away from each other and truthfully, our personalities are quite different. We tend to agree on the important things in life, though. And where one of us stumbles creatively, the other tends to be strong. So it’s a good balance.
Shimmer is one of the few projects I tend to do all on my own and it’s FAR harder than Wayrift. Not because it’s in color… but simply because it’s harder to stay motivated on a solo project for me. I’m lucky that most of the figments in Shimmer are fairly strong-willed and keep jabbing me forward. ^^;
Looks like Kip is getting a taste of his own medicine!
XD Drake Kabob anyone?
*shot*
So I’m guessing it is magical fire?
ah clasic kip face love this one it has words in and not just fighting(i get bored easily) glad i leave it till friday to read now as i then have three pages to read. brill as always and bad kip for giving wonkiness(which i couldnt see and still cant lol)
Aw, Wren, do we have to go yell at you from the Shimmer comment log, too?
You can if you want to? XD
But there’s only four comments…why do more people comment on Wayrift than Shimmer? Are there more readers?
Wayrift does get more traffic than Shimmer does. Part of that is because Wayrift updates more often and I really work to advertise Wayrift as the hub of this community.
Shimmer used to be a bit more popular, but it’s gotten more quiet as of late. It also shares traffic with its mirror site on Drunk Duck so sometimes people comment there instead of the main Shimmer site.
I bet that Drake was attempting to disturb the dragon rather than Kip… but it is a nice face… Hee!
*passes out favorite foods*
Twinkies, Pop-Tarts, Tuna Sandwiches, Popcorn, etc…
Ah. Thanks for the answers, Aywren!
Hey now? You think in 8 years I haven’t gotten close to beating Wren over the head with a sketchbook?
And after eight years, she still won’t let me see half of her old drawings? Heh, I threw all of mine away. (Because I can’t draw. Unless of course, we are talking Solidworks?)
Actually Wren is the one who keeps this thing going? Lucky that I’m not the one running the thing, otherwise updates would be twice a year. Christmas Break, and perhaps a week in the Summer. She’s got a lot more of that artist-endurance gutsiness that I lack.
Graduate school really wipes me out. I tell you — I go to work at 7AM, and leave after the sun sets. This weekend is the first weekend away from work — and I find myself with empty time. But now… I don’t know what to do with myself?
i didnt know you two were girls! its about time the girls got some recognition^^! all the boys i know (with the acception of my uncle^^) cant draw to save there lives! but its ok that you had a “off day”, aywren, i have them all the time! or maby im just bad?
tewna: tuna sandwiches? come on, tewna! you can do better than that! like pizza and cheese toastys!
Yep, we’re two girls in a crazy Blue Planet world. ^_~
You didn’t know they were girls? Did you even look at the author profiles?!?!? XD jk Syn~ you could always start running laps around your house! XD (yeah, I know I’m crazy)
Nah, they’ll keep her busy. No fear in that. But maybe if we poke her, we can get some art from her this vacation. XD
Bex: Who said they were my favorite foods? You ask me a question with the word favorite in it you’re likely to get glared at… I can never make up my mind, or even remember all the different options I think I should be choosing between… *continues passing out foods* Cherry Pop-Tarts! Hee! My personal space is a no ’serious’ fighting zone… unless it amuses me. *starts wondering about more favorite foods*
*starts poking Syn with vigor*
Uh oh?
Well… we DID get that BlueYa picture on the Oekaki. So it’s a start? XD
I like BlueYa!
He’s huggable! XD Enjoy the holidays ladies!
Great art, Syntyche! +Happy birthday to Aiden! Hm…BlueYa kinda reminds me of santa…very Christmasish!
If the joke behind BlueYa needs explaining, let me know and I’ll try. ^^;
Nah, I get it. That was just the first thing that popped into my head with the holidays so close: Santa!
Hm..I sound so childish here..oh well, I’m bubbly this week! XD
Nah… it’s okay. It’s the holidays!
And I just didn’t know if people knew the backstory behind BlueYa or not. If they haven’t been keeping up with the newest FFIV DS news, they may not.
*pokes Syn*
When you mentioned poking Syn for art, the first thing I thought was “FACEBOOK! BAHAHAHA”
For those who don’t have a facebook, there is a random feature that allows you to poke people…it’s quite fun when you’re bored in English class… >_>
Wow…People are quite talkative. I suppose I’m late to this conversation, but…Here’s to Syn and Aywren! ^^
Oh–and Merry Christmas Eve Eve!
This is the longest a comment log has been for a long time…
tis the season!^^
