Nightscrawlers

Thanks BAMF!
And thanks Steynedvelvet, however...
Care Bears? Care...Bears!?!
That, sir, is an outrage! My witness will visit yours sir! Pistols at dawn!

Was ist das?
Well obviously the tail is behind him...
I mean it would have ruined the line...
I mean...
Argh. Okay. I'll edit the tail in.

I love them both. You know your anatomy and have a nice line.
The only thing is the second one was hard to see on my moniter. I had to download it and pump up the gamma to get the details.
It really showed well the tones (and the little toenails).

A circus school would be college level. And a little boy like Kurt would probably want to become a painter or a vet...
And as a mom Margali would want him to follow the path that makes him happy.
Oh, and as someone who went through both systems, I never saw much difference between the two.

right back at you!

Sorry Cibo, I just googled the terms and there are colleges in Germany. It seems to be set up the same way as here, where colleges cover the more 'applied' subjects and universities go for the intense stuff.

Hah! Those are nice. Good composition and colours. It's interesting for me because the changed costumes are from the period where I stopped reading comics. I'm slowly restarting my collection and am edging toward those and...It's all YOUR FAULT! Because you're all so FRIENDLY and make it INTERESTING...

Oh, em, ah, wow!
Sure, I love 'bamfcentral'; it woud be an honour to have a link there.

...except it's not working!
Argh.
Let's add 'embarassement' to the list.

Okay, this should work:

Thank you!
I feel grateful, pleased, and guilty all at the same time. Readers can be so emotional, ja?
Anyway, this is for you:

It's still rough but I am planning on inking it.

What a relief!
I'm going a bit more involved here, so I am very grateful that the first response is a positive one.
This is number four of...I'll have a name sometimes soon...and it's going to go past six strips after all. I'll just have to watch myself and remember to keep it light .

Thanks guys!
Lil' Kurt number 8 is up!
I still don't have a name for that storyline...

I still love it ...except...i don't know how to visualize your lil' Kurt. All I know is he has brown eyes and hair. I keep wondering if he 's inherited anything from his grandfather (tail, fur, sticky fingers...). Is it on purpose? Or was it covered in a previous story?

The sad true story behind “Der Blaue Ritter” sign: I wanted to make a reference joke and have it say ‘The Blue Rider’ in honour of the German art association from last century; but when I used Babel Fish to translate it all it came up with was “Der Blaue Mitfahrer“(?). Blaue Ritter” (Blue Knight) lo...

Ooo, happy family life, little ominous note, good descriptions...When's the rest?

Thanks Rowena. That took two days to come up with! I mean, there's 'Jumbo' and 'Dumbo" and...then what? 'Rambo'?
Anyway, Lil' Kurt number 7 is up!
A little different today...Will it make a difference?

Yeah, that's my little 'morality play' comic.
I learned a lot with that one.
One of the things I learned is that you never know when you will need to find a good name for an elephant.

Lil' Kurt number 6 is up! This is the second part of...em...that story there. I just realized I haven't a name for it. Sincere apologies for the tardiness, especially to all the nice people who clicked on the site yesterday. I'll have some kind of bonus artwork ready in case this happens again (shou...

Thanks for the info Nandireya. I tell you what, this forum is bad for the pocketbook; each time a reference like that comes up I have to go buy the issue. "Couple of years" huh? Let's make it a year-and-a-half. Kurt was obviously rounding off, yeah, that's it. That way I'm still in the bal...

Gosh... :blush thanks Darick.
Okay just one more thing and my day will be perfect

there!

I just finished reading number 7! Excellent pencils (dear Darick!), excellent inking, excellent colour, excellent writing. And all about my favourite character. And all for my birthday. :bday Now that’s fan service. Thank you for a beautiful issue. I already want to reread it. I’m already impatient ...

I honestly did not know that the swastika was illegal there (good!). I was going to put in a nazi eagle but ran out of time to research. I'll edit the drawings when I have time. Right now Kurt is about 8 years old, Amanda 9 and Stephan 10. I'm assuming Margali already had her children by the time Ku...

Boring meat-and-potatoes question for either Dave or Paty: “back thenâ€

That is awesome! Don't you love crafty relatives?
jealous jealous jealous...

I'm the first one to admit that the jokes are on the stale side. To me the fun is in the lead-up, in presenting the characters and setting up the action; and it seems to be what you enjoy in reading them.

Yyyeeessss!!
