I'M!!?!?!? I!?@!?!
So reeeaaallll talk this is my favorite scene I've written and I had a lot of very specific blocking in mind for it. I couldn't really describe all of it because, you know, this is prose and not a script.
You did in fact hit all the motions I was picturing and the expressions on everything that I was imagining!!! I'm over the moon!!!!!! THANK YOU OH MY GODDFGJGDHESRHEU
I'm gonna ramble a lot more below sorrrryyyyy and the rambles may be a little messy because I'm having to switch to speech to text currently for chronic illness problems.
OKAY so!
First of all, I'm sure this is obvious. You're clearly someone who is very skilled, but the way that these panels all flow to each other directionally is really impressive. I'm a huge fan of how Kane's expression in the first panel really leads into Kinger's motion in the second one.
Also, the way you get so much of Kane's emotions just by adding that little bit of shading is so fucking cool! His initial expression in panel one is exactly what I was picturing, his hand pressed to his chest and all. And then Kinger's reaction is also exactly how I was expecting this to go.
Insert standard ramble about how fucking good you are at giving expressions to characters that have completely inhuman faces.
Caine's lil face when Kinger finally snaps is so fucking cute. You really captured that feeling of like, "oh no, dad's finally mad at me" which is what I was going for.
I really like the directional flow from, "You are the one who keeps forcing my hand," into the baiting line. Like, you get so much of Kinger being pissed just from how you draw the curve that's like in his neck and how that connects with his little anguity eyebrow. And then the hand motion on "you've been trying to bait me"? Ah, perfect!
I love the little pullout showing Caine tucked into his little race car bed and Kinger gesturing to the rest of the room. Love how Caine looks genuinely scared and surprised.
And then the way that Kinger's poses all flow together on that panel, just, oh my god, I'm losing my mind about it. Look, I just, I am obsessed with this shot of when Kinger puts his hands together and looks actually angry. It's so good.
I love how you draw the little glitches Caine is going through. Like, it has the same energy as when Ghibli hair poofs up because the characters are experiencing an intense emotion, and it works so well. You really sold the bit of him going from genuine surprise to choosing to finally take up the fight he decided to pick.
Poor guy, when he doubles over at the end of his rant. And I like how even though we're looking at Kinger from behind, I do get the impression that he's concerned by this in his body language? It's just very neat.
God, the panel of Kinger looking down at Caine and asking if he's hurt, and you can tell he is just so fucking done with this situation. And in response, Caine's reactionāoh my God, that face drives me absolutely wild. And the way you actually did show his fingers digging into his arms and clipping, like I'd written down. aaaaaaaaaa I love it so much!
The way that you emphasize, Kinger taking that breath before really getting into the fucking lecture is just real good.
I am in love with Caine's little like flinch when he tries to make the excuse of this being Kinger's code's fault and not his. The little like quirk of his upper jaw "eyebrows" and the way that little bit of shading in the interior part of the lower jaw really emphasizes this expression. Just love that.
And it's great because then after Kinger really gets into it, you can see how his words are pretty much immediately wrecking Caine's defenses here. The way Caine immediately goes from like angry and defensive to more sad kicked puppy.
HOOOOOOO the panel where Kinger mentions the mind files and you include that beat of him catching on the thought and having to take a moment before he says the next part does such a good job of emphasizing the thing.
AAAAA which does indeed result in the next panel of Caine really genuinely looking like a kicked puppy. And I like that you included the little glitches to help emphasize that this is causing a lot of emotion for him, because, you know, it is!
GOD the last panel thank you so muuuuch. This hits the exact gravity of the phrase I was going for, and the shading does so fucking much. And the way having the shot be from a little below Kinger really emphasizes how heavy it is. And then the way it contrasts with Caine looking down and how he shrinks. The perspective is really good. The perspective is doing a lot of work here, and I'm a big fan.
Anyway, this is all to say, I'm extremely flattered and over the moon, and will probably be gushing about this for the rest of my life, lol.
Thank you so much for caring about my thing enough to do something so cool, it's an honor!
Lowk I feel like Raphael would be the one out of them to succumb to stress, and suffer the physical changes of being perpetually stressed. Part of gods strength is empathy, itās understanding people and Raph would gladly take on the tears and fears of their people. Also would love Raphael to be the most in tune with heavens fauna. Gods strength extends to not just the angels but to the ones they preside over!
Michael was more interesting for me, as Iām pinoy myself. Originally Michael and Raphael would have switched places and meaning in my head. But, Michael having a lot of sun imagery and my own Idra (michael disciple designs) have affected him. For a country colonized like three fucking times and constantly bearing the load of its god forsaken government and michael being patience just made too much sense to me.
Phanuel is the funnest to draw for me face wise, I imagine heās also the youngest. (Everyone here is old as shit) The book of Enoch was a good place to turn to for him. (Youāll see heās associated a lot with the Lion of Judah that also shows prominence in his in-game design so props to Ms.Xie for that one) For Phan I donāt even know where to start. Wisdom is harder to pin down for me, because what wisdom is Phanuel to gain from a crumbling society? To not exist anymore? To dish out āwisdomā when heās lost the one person who holds all the apparent wisdom in the world? Horrible. Being the excorism angel as well I wonder if he had his own experiences expelling demons from other angels and couldnāt bear to be a witness at Gabrielās trial.
