Nearly missed the deadline today. Had this thing coloured for ages, but never got around to finishing it up.
Not too happy with that stupid face in panel 2, and Ellenna has had a redesign since I drew this.
Also, I hate colouring. Absolutely hate it. I always start with characters and finish with the sky. Because the one thing I love doing, is sky and clouds. So I have to do them last as a treat. Weird, huh.
Oh well, page 4 in a fortnight...

No, just color the stuff. Do you hear me? Don't start over. I started over and it was a huge mistake and so did the 3 kids that we were doing synchronized updates on separate comic pages with and do you know who never finished their comics? All of us; Bella Roi @ SJ kept on trucking like "Fuck the haters" and she's got like, 400 pages and 45254414 fans and just
Don't start over. This isn't an ass pat like Omigud ur so good, this is a command, it's a bad move.
Color the not-colored pages and run a color filter on the flashback pages, if you want to do any retrofitting.
Your art is good enough to carry the story without distracting from the story, and that's all you need, here. Yes, if you improve you'll be happier and be able to cover a wider range of scenes and shots, but unless your comic is just, reprehensible and an awful mess (which it is not), you will not finish if you start over because then you will start over again.
Spawn as in THE Spawn, those first few issues are absolutely atrocious. The characters' faces aren't even consistent from panel to panel, the staging is awful, there are some pages you have to re-read, but it was juuuust enough to get readers because he kept on trucking. When people look at webcomics one thing they check for is improvement. I know I do; the first thing I do is compare your last page to your first page. If your first pages are bad but your last pages are better, I read it. If your first pages are bad and your last pages are bad, I typically don't read it. Of course if the art is fanfuckingtastic all around I'll read it too, but the SUPER PRETTY OMG pages are either
1.) Never-going-to-be-finished Restart syndrome comics which aren't worth investing in and don't update regularly
2.) Artist doesn't know how to write comics which are eyecandy but confusapalooza
3,) Very rare quality comics which end up on shelves IRL.
