Universal Smash 110 by ZenkaiPawa

Its liek, UH MUH GAH GIRLLLL TIME. "Sammy" and "lucy" discuss lucinas reaccuring dream.
Its hard but i'll try to be spoiler free-ish. though LUCINA her self is a bit of a spoiler..anywho, at the end of FEA you are able to choose who delivers the final blow to grima, this has alot to do with that.

This is kind of a nice change of pace.
Still; Lucina is always so formal, is giving and using nicknames really in her character?

Opinnion aside, a couple of other things to point out:
-Going page by page, I feel that some kind of transitioning page or panel would've made it flow better, even something as simple as "Later that night..." inside of a little box.
-This panel set up would work MUCH better with the whole left side being read first, then moving onto the right side.
The fact that the bottom left panel's text box intrudes on the first panel's space establishes a visual link between them, and most reader's eyes will follow it, causing them to read the panels out of order.
It's a little late to redesign the page (and with how much work you put into this one I wouldn't want you to redo it anyway), but I would definitely number the panels for this page, personally.
Ironically, you placed the guide arrows for the panels on two of the most obvious ones. :/
Hopefully I don't sound like I'm ragging on you, but try to be more alert of things like this in the future, a'ight?
Just trying to help you get better at this. :)

Nice close-up of Samus, by the way.
The shading is very nice.

Fahk I forgot the "later that night" I actually meant to do that. Its hard, im sometimes torn about drawing a panel only to erase some of it to put text.
Also I hate numbering pages, I just dont like the way it looks. Im trying to make the flow of panels natural to follow rather than do that, or use arrows occasionally.
I know, i may inquire about your comments or i may rarely just disagree with your nitpicks but its always been appreciated.

Also im not toomworried about the panel layout at this point, most should more or less get my flow by now, its left to right, then down. Like a really wide regular page.

I would've had the top-right panel have a tiny overlap on the first one, cutting in maybe a few centimeters.
Then I would separate the bottom left from the first by shrinking it a little.
As a bonus you would've had a little more room to detail Grima and make the text boxes slightly larger, both of which are more important to the story than Samus' suit's thighs. :P

By the way, you don't HAVE to erase ANY of the picture for the text boxes.
Just draw the whole picture out and then place the text boxes on a higher layer.

On a sort of related note, do you plan on doing any more colored pics for Universal Smash?
I'm just curious.

You draw characters Super well you know that.

Theres actually a reason for the first panels size, i wanted it to look like a support conversation, otherwise the angle and lighting for the first makes no sense. But anywho.
I might do more colored ones, very likely actually. Might also do some fun group art eventually, like youd see in mangas like naruto, onepiece or DB.

Can't really say...

Kyoskue does bring up some good points. In fact, they sound like these points are from a text book. But even so, that doesn't mean that you have to change an already good comic in order to make it perfect. Every artist has their own style.

Oh, you know girls and their conversating and understanding of real emotional problems. Such rascally dolls

Kyoskue

17 Oct, 2013, 2:32 am

Ah, interesting idea.
If that were the case though, shouldn't you have placed their text in a box at the bottom to make it more obvious? ;)

In any case; I do really like this page, even if I can find a lot of faults with it.

Oh, by the way, the Gamestop near had a great deal on PS3s, so now I own one.
Got Disgaea D2 and the Studio Ghibli game; Ni No Kuni: Wrath of the White Witch (got this for free as part of a "buy-one-get-one free" deal).
So, when I visit you next month you can bet I'll bring it. ;D

Dood...I dont think ANY one understands that. Not even women themselves.

17 Oct, 2013, 2:35 am

@kyo Yeah...thats what i meant though, i liked the way the background looks too much.
ohgodps3. :v

Kyoskue

17 Oct, 2013, 2:46 am

Any other PS3 games I should nab that you can think of?

By the way, Disgaea D2 came with 2 Soundtrack CDs.
Oh yeah, and I got the guide for Pokemon X & Y...
Hory snausages.
It's a FOUR-HUNDRED AND SIXTEEN page hardcover book that comes with a map/type match-up chart and a cloth screen cleaner featuring the version legendaries! (O_O())
Seriously, it's like a decent-sized novel, yeesh!

Thanks.
It's cool that you're defending mah boi Scorch's design decisions and all, but Universal Smash is his excuse to get better at making comics and drawing in general.
He's still learning, and definitely needs some good criticism now and again to keep him on his toes.

That's where I come in. ;)

We plan on maybe trying to do some work together one day; and the perfectionist in me refuses to let him flat-line as an artist.
I want nothing more than for him to succeed. :3

^Kyoskue

I can understand that. I think it's good to to give out advice every now and then. To be honest I don't see very much of that on Colors 3D. Even for those that ask for the advice.

ZenkaiPawa

17 Oct, 2013, 5:57 am

@cotton boi you shood. I'll try not to spoil too much for anyone, hes da badguy, you find that out fairly early on.
@kyo same bro, theres no telling what our talents can accomplish. You really outta post something on colors, like, anything, a stupid doodle. Heheh.
@mwill yus i'll check it.

MwWill

17 Oct, 2013, 8:00 am

Haha!Yes!I'll put that name in the maybe list and see what else there is for ideas!Thanks man.

Kyoskue

^ Scorch
Alright, I'll see if I can whip up something in the next week or two.
Not to make any excuses for myself if what I produce doesn't really come out up to snuff, but I still have yet to really buckle down and practice with Colors!3D, so don't expect anything too intricate, hooah.

Kyoskue

17 Oct, 2013, 11:10 am

^ Can't really say...

Well, I think that a big part of why there's so little criticism on Colors!3D is because so many of the people using it are younger.
They don't have the knowledge nor experience to really go into detail on how an artist could better their work.
On top of that, many of them probably aren't as happy with their own skill level as they would like.
They don't handle criticism well, and thus don't dish it out either.

ZenkaiPawa

Colors 3d can be a melting pot of teenage angst. No suprise most dont handle any confrontation well, or at least what they deem it as.

ZenkaiPawa

17 Oct, 2013, 10:14 pm

Although this is also true of most art centric communities.

So Scorchio, no reply to the comment about my gigantic Pokemon guide book or PS3 games I should get?
