It's crunch time for my next novel, so when it came to choosing between spending 6 hours on a strip or 2 hours on an illustration, it was clear what the wise choice was.
That said, I tried a new method of drawing for this that I'm quite liking, although it's hard to get Kara's particular proportions right with it. I won't be using it for the rest of this arc, for style continuity purposes, but I'll definitely be using it for the next arc. It'll make drawing underwater things easier.
*coughs*
No, I didn't just give a teaser for the next arc. Not at all.
...I'm going to get back to editing now. :D
An eleven-year-old girl who spends most of her free time tromping about her mountainous back yard in a heroic getup of her own design, Kara loves the idea of an adventure. The real thing, on the other hand…
