Alethea Lim - Last Mail - Adelaide. DONE!

[Alecat]

I'm meant to be studying for exams! But I couldn't shake this idea. I managed to pump out the first 6 (of eight) pages really quickly, but they're equally as sketchy, because I need to go back and hit the books.

UPDATE: See entry here:

Wow - forget the study, get back to this!! Really impressive artwork there, and hanging to see where the story goes!

[Alecat]

As you wish!




I'm not entirely happy with that last page, but I've really got to stop here. By the way, I did try and stick the "Doctor" part in in a couple of places but without text it didn't really work... so the closest I got was the letter being kind of smudge-ed-ly addressed to a Doctor.

But I'm done. It's certainly a fun experience and hopefully the next time I attempt this I'll have the time to do something far more polished. (And maybe realise that the event was on at least a week in advance) Maybe in the future I'll even go for a full 24 pages!

Actually it's absolutely beautiful as-is! Your pencil work is amazing - but not only that you've got great panel layouts. Great work.

Oh and better get back to that study!

[Owen Heitmann]

Wow, that's really cool! The story flows with perfect clarity, which is sometimes hard with no words. And those birds look amazingly lifelike! I was hoping for a happy ending though...

[Gary Lau]

Hey Alethea!

Nice, very beautiful and really graceful! I love the moment and flow of the bird. Well done!

[Li'l Sketchy]

Great little story. It really breathes and flows just right... Saying so much with so little is a definite skill! ... Would love to see more next time, definitely!

[Alecat]

Thanks guys!

Google image search and I cemented our friendship in the making of this comic.

Owen, I was too, but it just happened this way. At least someone got a good lunch!

[Demongoldfish]

good work! flowed really well. pity you couldnt do more.

p.s. i had no idea so many adelaidiens where around

[TaCk]

Alecat, great images.

When I saw them, I heard Tori Amos in my ears. Why is that?

[onegreyelephant]

Awesome work!

I fely so sorry for the little bird fighting it's way through that storm-- a really emotive story!

[Alecat]

Demongoldfish: we're eeeeverywhere. Uh, wait, no. We're in Adelaide. I blame plufim for my participation this year! (Even if he is out in Kangarilla)

TaCK: After reading your post, I got "1000 Oceans" stuck in my head. It kinda fits! Thanks for your comment, it feels quite cool to know that a comic can connect with someone on more than just a visual level.

onegreyelephant: Thankyou

[plufim]

Oh sure, blame me :P

[Haruka-chan]

I love it! It's really beautiful ^_^

[Alecat]

Thanks Haruka

And of course I'll blame you, Connell, because it really is your fault. I suppose maybe I should be thanking you?
