One small bit at a time.

Aug. 4th, 2007 at 1:58 AM

For the whole week that I was working on the project (must finish pencils this weekend), I sometimes took the time to do a little panel here and there of the Water Tribe AU.
And whaddayaknow! By the end of the week, there was enough stuff done to post something!

Zhao's being rough in this part-

Next few pages should be fun- I'll be starting to pile trouble on Zhao, hehehe (evil!)

Hehe, does this herald the Return of the Seal Turtle Clubber? XD

It's starting to get actiony, so definitely looking forward to some ass-kicking Zhaoness :D

Oooo, yes, Lao's head will crunch just like a baby turtle-seal! Yessss, Zhao, doooo eeeeet! I see your smirk. Dooooo eeeeeet!

I love the second panel of 70 there. From just being ticked at her, there's this "ack" expression! And then proper targets appear!

That evil smirk on Zhao's face in the last panel is just perfect.

Thank you- I was rather happy how that one came out (had to redraw one of his eye a few times, he looked lopsided)

Zhao is not the kind to hold up- you hit him, he hits back. Man or woman, though he may go a tiny bit easier on women. That's the only restraint he will show.
The skinny guards knew he wasn't up to the task to stop a soldier twice his side. That's why he usually keeps Shuyeh as an assistant.

Boy do I ever love that punch panel on the second page! Esp the POW fitting into that space under the arm XD

Was Zhao planning to take over the ship all along? Or only after he realized that he wasn't going to get what he wanted from Lao... hmm...

The punch was fun to do, but I feel like it needs a little bit more room (mental note: make characters in it a bit smaller if I can't make panel bigger)

Zhao was happy with the deal he had with Lao. The plan to take over the ship definitely started to grow the moment he was told he was being dropped from the deal. Took a few moments for him to quickly work out some details.

The angels sings thy praises as his smile is so heavenly in the last page. :>

Zhao will need some supporters in the next few pages: taking over a whole pirate ship is not going to be easy (at least, I'm not going to make it easy, hehehe)
Aww, thanks! Glad you like the last panel- I'm glad it came out ok.

This is so great. My mental dialogue went, 'Yeah! Go Zhao! Defeat the evil slaver pirate so you can... steal his money to... bribe your peers to... overlook your mistakes.' Um... yay?

You are doing a marvelous job with the character. He's still a ruthless jerk, but he's trying to do the right things. He's just going about it in a ruthless, jerklike fashion. =D

In the end, Zhao is looking out for Zhao...well, mostly.
There's a bit of Water Tribe ties that keeps coming and mess his trains of thoughts and his plans.

foul for hitting a woman, but mitigated by the fact that she was hysterical and hit him first. :P

GO ZHAO, GO KICK EBIL!PIRATE BOOTY!

I wouldn't say she was hysterical, but angry? Hell yeah! She lost her family, and thinks Zhao is partly responsible for it (which in a way, he is since he let Lao go free doing his pirate stuff).
