my mayfly -- my new online Poser comic

Ariah81

Hey All!

Perhaps some of You were wondering if I'm still alive. I am, it's been a tough half a year, full of work and studies, but generally productive and quite lucrative...

I've started a new comic project, a completelly different story.
my mayfly

And here's a livejournal, devoted entirely to this comic: my mayfly journal

You are welcomed to visit the journal and drop a line about the comic, your suggestions and expectations. Questions will be answered, I promise.

Plus, the issue 7 of the Wind Weaver has been started: just three pages so far, but I'll get down to it.[/url]

Hey! I plan to have this story updated once a month with a whole chapter (we'll see how it'll work out) and less focused on a pure action, more on plot and characters...

Really amazing work Ariah. I just read through the chapter and I'm blown away. Great layout, renders, characters.. the whole thing is very solid.

Though I do have one technical question: between pages 25 and 26 Nate seems to change somehow. The hair is definitely different, but there's something else that changes that I can't quite put my finger on, I think. Just curious what inspired the change in the hair if nothing else.

Thanks, GlitchGirl!

As for the hair (and overall change in nate, as true, I did some morph-over of the character)... I was looking for a perfect hair that would not render ages. The hair used previously was looking pretty good, had the 'messy' quality, but was rendering awfully slow and generally whan i had it loaded in the scene, the number of polygons was slowing down Poser.

The hair I use currently may stay for a while, though i found a new one, better, recently on DAZ. But I think I'll let Nate sport the new hair for a chapter or two... Or have a change, but justified in the line of dialogue (I even have one of the characters - a new one, red-haired, freckled guy named Brandon, Nate's childhood friend - say something like: "You changed your hair? You're seeing Maeve again or something?")

Hello Ariah
If you live in Poland your English is very good. You put your pages together in a modern stylish way.
There is strand based hair in poser that takes hours to render even if you have a fast computer.
Can I say that I'd like more excitement in your comics and more beautiful girls.
If you look at DC comics, they start with someone crashing out of a building, a fight scene, death, mayhem, destruction! You need to grab the readers attention so they are really hanging out for the next scene.
You're a girl so that might not be your thing. But your artwork is beautiful!
