You weren't kidding when you said you were the Master of the Landscape. Wait, you never said that. I did!
Awesome scale aside, the coloring is superb and the story progresses nicely. As far as what they come upon... it's a pit of cartoonists!

Loving it so far, artwork is fantastic, keep it up!
Any chances of a hard copy version being printed?

That's my long term plan.
Once I've finished this story Arc then I've got another story and I'm pitching them to publishers as one 140 page book.

must be my fate to be the spelling nitpicker.
For the dead-tree edition, note the spelling of "Charybdis" is inconsistent between the last bubble here and the title of the 'episode'.
IIRC, the spelling you use in the title is the historically-correct one (although I could imagine an SF justification for the mis-spelling, if it were consistent).

I think I've misspelt Charybdis in every conceivable way now.
Must...do....BETTER!

Spectacular sense of scope. Terrifying sense of labor.

This would make a great poster, esp printed on a high end printer/paper. Nice sense of depth and motion.

I did print out this recently

It came out good. We put it on the wall of our studio.

Hmmmm...I will have to try that on the Epson 8000 tomorrow. To get better I would have to use an IGen or some other industrial/commerical digital press.
BTW, that one was good enough to invoke my fear of heights. Well played.

The version I printed was 300dpi , so it looked good at about 3' across.

You should post that you posted here on the LJ, just still for now to cradle the late changers. I usually look there to see what people put here... I don't know why.. but I didn't see this 'til I went to the homepage of the new act-i-vate. What if other people don't too!
