Duke of Luns wrote:Also, this is how comics in general used to be written I believe, or pretty close to it, with the writer giving a brief overview of what he would like on a page, and then putting dialog in once he saw the finished page.
Really? Hmm. I know that when I write I normally tend to think in prose, in that I love wordplay, and I tend to write just enough description to give necessary props and a mood rather than being detailed. Most of my storytelling is through dialogue and internal thoughts, with imagery secondary.
So writing Mosaic scripts at all was tricky because suddenly I had to make specific imagery (or at least more specific than I usually write) part and parcel of my stories. And this contest was even further new, since I had to write a story around already established imagery and props. But, hey, trying new stuff is what lets you grow as a writer.

Thanks for the opportunity, First Gen, I hope you'll let us read all of the entries after the contest is over.

Yes. I can do one with your script if you like. I can either send it to you or post it. Your choice.

If you wanted to, sure (I wouldn't mind posting it to get some feedback, after all), but I was more really just curious to see what everybody came up with. I like fanfic, and it'd be interesting to see how all the writers interpreted the same setup.

Heh, cool.
I have to admit that if this was the final artwork I probably would have written the third and sixth panels a bit differently, but otherwise it still works.
Also, you did some editing of words and punctuation, hmm. (Mostly to avoid using bolded type, it looks like.) The sixth and last panels should really just be regular questions, then, not exclamation ones. :>

Yeah, without text boxes I couldnt fit the whole script in. I dont have the ability to do that, no program, but if you do, I can send you the textless version and you can plug in text boxes to make it look better.
I changed the last two panels slightly to more fit Dukes script. Plus it took awhile to draw as I took my time to make it look better than my first attempt.

Sure, I could give it a go (or, more likely, try to bribe someone else to do it for me XD ), but other than that quibble the editing's fine enough.

Ahh. Well, I do like the new art for the most part (I admit I liked your Ariel in the first one a little better). Just instinctively thinking about it from a writer's perspective. :>

Yeah, she was better the first go round, but I tried to emphasize Dion more in this one. I think I failed to do that the first time. And my art in the first one was horrible.

I'm emailing it to you along with both scripts if you don't mind.

Ok, so I finally got a text box version. I put it in the original post replacing the first version.
