About Me
Hi, I'm Sophia and I'm currently studying to be a manga artist/storyboard artist/children's book author, or a profession along those lines for when I get out of college.
I have been working on Carnelian for 6 years now and June 2007 will be Carnelian's 7th birthday for anyone who would like to celebrate it.
I love comics and I love story telling and I read hundreds of comics, both online and in real life. There is little that gives me greater joy than writing stories.
My main goal for Carnelian is for it to become popular on its own without me constantly advertising it on different sites. I feel that if my fans like my webcomic, they will tell their friends and it will spread by word of mouth (or type). If this does not occur, I believe that my story must not be good enough, but even so I will work on it until its completetion.
If you would like me to critique your comic, please send me a private message and I will be happy to do so.

After looking at this page for a little, I figure it out. The bubble where he says,
"Eh..." reads weird. *mumbles to herself*
I AM glad that you're out of your writer's block. Mine at one point spanned 7 months.

I updated on time! GOOOOOOOOOOOO ME!
Response about comic:
If my readers aren't absolutely confused as to what's going on right now, I haven't been doing my job. (basically i'm being confusing on purpose)

*points around frantically* It updated on a Friday! Okay, so I'm technically a comic
behind, but at least it's an update! Yay update! I'm working on page 6 right now.

Many apologies everyone...
*is suddenly sucked up into a court room drama*
Crescent: Uhhh...
Judge: You're here under the crime of not updating on time and then failing to update when you say you would. How do you plead?
Crescent: Uh... um.... guilty?
Soo.... what's my punishment?
Judge: Well... I figured you'd just lie your way out of it.
Crescent: So... you didn't plan anything, did you?
Judge: Nope.
Crescent: COOL!
Hopefully this picture makes up for it. Many apologizes, specially to No-Name9(sp). Probably not though.

This is one of my favorite myths. I'm curious to see where you take it.

This is a fun filler image! Light, playful, and is exactly what I'm getting at when I say
use more emotional line.

*rolls eyes* COME NOW. *laughs* If you take on that view, you won't try to practice them.
I try to avoid "reassuring" other artists of their talents because you don't
need the reassuring, you've got the talent, all you need is to keep going and to practice
it. The pose is fine.
I do have a bit of a pet peeve with the background though. You have plenty of talent to draw trees. True you used line to emphasize the fact that she's rising in anger so... your call.
I'm a bit confused as to why the feet are on the left. What are they showing exactly? The heel is lifting, but having them on the right in a left to right comic is a little odd.
In the first panel, I wonder if the character was at first lying on the ground and has some dirt in her fist and then she stood... but it's a bit confusing.
The Eye panel looks pretty darn good.
In regards to perspective on the figure in the dramatic panel, it's not bad. Really isn't. Only awkward problem is her mouth (or possibly the bottom of her chin if viewed by others). Well, I say it's a mouth and the mouth would be a lot smaller from that perspective. In defense of my mouth opinion, her hair is shown more than it would if that line is the bottom of her chin. So to me, it's like she's looking down, with her eyes covered, frowning at the ground(and the reader).
I'm in a really chatty mood today. Sorry for blathering about stuff so much! If I've offended, take no heed!

I really like what you have so far, but your lines are really tight and stiff. (I do it
too, as a note) It'd be interesting to see your comic when you release a bit of the
tension for trying to make the work "perfect". I only mention that because your
coloring on the comics is very free flowing and I would like to see if your line work
could do the same, with different thick and thin lines.
Your work reminds me of a lot of artists I really admire and watch on DA and I want to see where you take your talent. So I hope you keep going strong with your comic!

Absolutely fabulous comic. Very similar in art to Johnny the Homocidal Maniac, but you
have your own story, characters, and way you go about working. Your panels are very well
structured and maintains the style throughout the comic.
I'm really looking forward to the next comic!
p.s. I love Almost's friends a lot. I hope to see more of them. (specially the one missing the eye)
