GASP! The "L" word!!

And I don't know about you, but a bit of comedic relief is like ... a fan blowing cool air into a stuffy room. ;)

098 - Something Unspoken -

Page 098

So while it's kind of a tease for two characters to completely miss signs of one being attracted to the other, sometimes ... they really do know deep down inside how the other person feels. And yeah - that's what Jen looks like with no hair dye. It was actually very hard for me to color her that way. o.O

Speaking of Jen, she made a cameo in my submission to this year's Comix 35 contest called "The Greatest Witness." In case you didn't know, I am a Christian. ^_^ And just so there's no confusion, Skipping Tomorrows is not a Christian Webmanga (although, if you're looking for some, I got a list of links for ya!) and "The Greatest Witness" is not part of the Skipping Tomorrows storyline. I drew Jen to look older on purpose to fit the role of host and yes - that is new art. Hopefully it looks a bit different from the Skipping Tomorrows line art. ^^;

097 - Felt Safe

Page 097

Not a whole lot to say other than sorry for the angst - I'm pretty anti-angst, I frown upon emo, and do my best to keep even my most serious subjects lighthearted. However, here we are at the root of Shawn and Emma's feelings, so I kind of had to be serious for a couple pages. Oh, and this is kind of not humble at all, but I really like the pic of him grabbing her. Sometimes when you draw something and then you hold it up to look at it, you feel like giving out a bit "WOOT!!!" That was way back when, and I still like that particular part of this page. :P
