2/1/10 Page 121 is finished and posted. Definitely not my strongest page. I'll admit I was procrastinating in drawing it because I wasn't sure how to draw a person lying down. But whatever, you get the idea. Locke and Edgar fake swooning because Terra is just SO DAMN CUTE. Don't pretend like you wouldn't do the same. Kefka's line I think will be in the next page.
Ah, yes, and I'm doing a few updates here and there to the site- namely, to the cast page and gallery. That means that some links might not work for a while. Thanks for being so patient, like y'all always are.
Another reason for a delayed page. I am reading the sequel to the Locke Lamora book. And oh my goodness.


1/29/10 Finally finished a wallpaper of Esper Terra. Click on the thumbnail to go to the Gallery. ->


1/25/10 Went back and added a few details to last week's page- blood on Locke's shirt, blood on Edgar's left hand, more tears in Terra's eyes... that all sounds terrible, doesn't it? Hope this week's page makes up for it.


1/20/10 I forgot to shade Edgar's hand in the last panel there- have fixed the mistake. Poor Edgar- seems like everyone's feeling sorry for his bloodied-up face. Looks like he finally noticed he blood in panel four. Still, he uses his handkerchief to wipe Terra's tears. Aw. The pattern on that handkerchief is actually from one of my kitchen napkins. Seeing it on the page makes me smile. And can I apologize for Locke's pose in panel four? I thought cropping his face would make the pose more dramatic, but I dunno... it just looks like I was going for a crotch shot. Which I WAS NOT. Live and learn, I guess. I'm also noticing that I've been drawing Terra's eyes bigger... does that make this comic more manga style?

In other news, super big thanks to Arlene Harris, who surprised me with a donation as part of her commitment to supporting artists and their webcomics. I'm putting the money towards either a new tablet or computer, whichever one dies first. Thanks again, Arlene. EDIT 1/22/10: Fixed broken link. Sorry about that!


1/12/10 Yeah, late page. But its up now!


1/5/10 Happy New Year! Sorry for the late update; I can no excuse save that I am a lazy bum. The last panel was really hard for me to arrange, for some reason. I couldn't think of a pose of Terra showing discomfort that I hadn't already used. But whatever.

The FF6c Livejournal has a picture of Esper Terra in (maybe) a more manga style. Maybe?


12/28/09 Happy Fourth Day of Christmas everybody! May your true love give you four calling birds. I'm back in my apartment and should be cleaning now. Anyway, special thanks to LockeZ who suggested the "flamethrower in armpits" line on the FF6c Livejournal. I couldn't NOT use that line. And now we are in the "she uses magic" scene. Been waiting to do this for a while. I only hope I'll be able to live up to your expectations.

One last thing... this morning I got a nice email from a reader and then took it into my head to create some Final Fantasy VI Comic wallpapers. Any suggestions for characters/color schemes/designs?


12/21/09 New page is up. Thanks to all who gave suggestions over at the FF6c Livejournal. As you can see, I tried to combine a few responses. I hope Locke's lines fit in with the rest of the page.


12/17/09 Okay. I'm needing some help over here. I just finished next Monday's page. I am posting it on the Final Fantasy 6 Comic Livejournal so y'all can see it ahead of time. BUT. I can't think up a line for Locke in the first panel. Somehow, nothing I come up with really seems to fit. I'm just talking about Locke in the first panel. Terra is silent for this page. Can YOU help me? Or maybe YOU? OR YOU? Head on over to the Livejournal to take a gander. Leave a comment if you get an idea for a good line of dialogue. Thanks, guys. I know I can count on y'alls.


12/16/09 So... for reasons I don't understand, the html for half of the main page just, ums... disappeared? So I had to rewrite the html from scratch? Because naturally I don't make backup copies of my html. That means that all the past news in the updates box has been lost. So- as I begin to rebuild my site, please be patient with it. And if you see any broken links or half-loaded pages, please send a shout on the shoutbox. Or shoot me an email at orinocou at gmail dot com.
