Oh also, here's some WIPs of the new cover for those interested.
I'm going with a screentone with the darkest shades that's outlined in ink, so yeah. :T
By the way, I plan to do a page stream sometime tomorrow evening, feel free to stop by if you are interested!
There's a ton of outfits I've wanted to draw some of these characters in for ages now, but none of them would ever come to be in the story at all.
Yeah, based on what most people have said (since I made sure to check comments on that post and what-not) I think I'll go with the second one. Though I potentially might make the others just as some extra art. At the very least, I think the third one makes a good composition for the back cover possibly. We'll see on that though. Thanks again for all your help, everyone!

Who are those cute three little munchkins?
They're Oswald's three younger siblings. Sorry, I know they appeared briefly in the last chapter but I never really said who they were aside from a few times on my main blog. Yeah, probably should've mentioned that earlier, again sorry about that.

Anonymous asked:
Do you use Manga Studio for your comic? Also how do get your lines to look so nice???
Yep, I have Manga Studio Debut 4.0 for that. I use the pen tool for all the inking aside from the curve line tool which I use for hair (I think it looks better for the flow. Aside from that that's really about it, inking with MSD can be hard at first but I really like it so yeah c:
So with Chapter 13 of The Search for Henry Jekyll almost being complete, I'll be going on my first official hiatus to work on hand copies of The Search for Henry Jekyll to buy! (So basically it's a hiatus from work to work on something else, ah well.)
One big thing I had in mind was having a new cover for these books and the images above are some quick ideas on it (as in for volume 1, keep in mind that I plan to have 3 chapters per volume). Here's my breakdown on all of these:
- This one is very similar to all the chapter covers that I have made so far. It would probably have that same border design, placement of the title, etc, the big difference is how much is going on in it. The big problem I've found with this one, however, is that I dunno if the format used in all the chapter covers works for this composition as well. Maybe I'll test more on this. Also I plan to use red vs. green for all of these, just figuring out the other colors to balance it out is a bit of a struggle. I'll fix that on all of these once I decide on a composition.
- I really love this one, mainly just because I like how simple but still defined all the background elements are. Smoke needs some work, especially with tangents but I can fix that later. What concerning though, is that, if I do go with this one, I'd like to keep it as a base for the next cover volumes. As in I want to have that base idea for every cover- same window, smoke, figure inside window- just different characters or placement of certain parts depending on the volume. And that's fine, but I wonder if this composition would be hard to do repetitively.
- I really like this one even if only conceptually. Ever simple, but still with a lot of power behind it. But like with the second one, I feel like this idea would be hard to repeat for every later cover, this one more so then the second idea. Of them this one's probably not the one I'd go with but I still wanted to include it since I like it.
- This one definitely has that sort of "cover" feel to it. It's not so artsy as some of the others but I still think it could be efficient. The big thing though is that I feel the title placement's awkward. I did play with it some and this is the best version I came up with but it still looks weird. Maybe that's cos I simply scribbled it in and it'll look better when made with some detail and effort.
Anyway, though I won't be working on this just yet, I want to get your guys' thoughts on this. Which one do you think I should go with, etc? And if you have anything else to say related to all this whether comments, recommendations and so forth feel free to let me know!

If there's no one who can take this burden in my place
Then there's no choice
But to take my simple life and

And it makes me want to end it all with my own hands
Is it wrong?
Surely it's alright to want to uninstall.(Or if you prefer the original version, that's here.)#The Search for Henry Jekyll#scars#Midori's art#tsfhj spoilers#jekyll and hyde#Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde#The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde#henry jekyll37 notes
gabrielied Follow Possible Upcoming HiatusHello everyone!I just wanted to let you all know that after I put out the rest of this chapter (and possibly even after one more depending on time) I plan to go on hiatus. The reason for this is because I finally want to remake all of the pages I lost back in May when I damaged my hard drive. I want to get all of this done before summer because I may be able to have a booth at Denver Comic Con and I want to have some legit hand copies to sell for that. Plus, with the advice and help of a few other professionals, I have a good idea on how to make hand copies to sell to you guys! I know it's a bit sudden news, but I hope all of you will support me through this if you are able. Maybe to help with the payments to come I might do a kickstarter or something but...I get this weird feeling that next to no one would care about that.... We'll see :TUntil then, thanks for everything and please, if any of you have any advice, recommendations or what not regarding all of this, feel free to let me know! I could really use some help for this big leap I'm going to take soon!Thanks again!Midori#Gab talks17 notes
