I'm going to call an official hiatus while other things are going on, not the least of which is another comics project which, I hope, has legs.

The effect is quite nice, but the cartridge paper's not very robust and with my current A4 scanning capacity consequently comes out a little crinkly. Still... enjoyable, I hope, and let me know what you think.</span>Luke Scoffieldhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18272560763440939161noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5766014000160917183.post-20551669902131551982010-04-23T20:34:00.006+01:002010-04-23T20:43:41.434+01:00"A Cage For My Heart To Reside In" pages 1 & 2<span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 102);">The first installment of the first story:</span><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjzmwVlbArhy0zo3qIULV4v8l7Hi76z-KERCuHPN5SEnBHTwoPSZKjCRX64pL7C2iJjNhE2g5iJQidQkqCD-o5XVD6uVQAqwJ8T5H_MVWnnYsxLUlU2MsaihBpVpbqElqiJ9t_qAJKYaGkB/s1600/cage001.jpg"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 199px; height: 200px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjzmwVlbArhy0zo3qIULV4v8l7Hi76z-KERCuHPN5SEnBHTwoPSZKjCRX64pL7C2iJjNhE2g5iJQidQkqCD-o5XVD6uVQAqwJ8T5H_MVWnnYsxLUlU2MsaihBpVpbqElqiJ9t_qAJKYaGkB/s200/cage001.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5463419043629848386" border="0" /></a><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjExq20fHUS5yb5A7gc64eXQN87XUiCg_ZlidX3KNn4TjfEPm8Sc9_KR-5FTp7AeT_KnxxQCNifcCxG1-y91Sa-hb9D5fe2sxx22PBBnR2rANk75WNLs9aSI7OKH8ErRvDn9j_Gd8g3Dtxu/s1600/cage002.jpg"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 200px; height: 198px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjExq20fHUS5yb5A7gc64eXQN87XUiCg_ZlidX3KNn4TjfEPm8Sc9_KR-5FTp7AeT_KnxxQCNifcCxG1-y91Sa-hb9D5fe2sxx22PBBnR2rANk75WNLs9aSI7OKH8ErRvDn9j_Gd8g3Dtxu/s200/cage002.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5463419551559984322" border="0" /></a><br /><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 102);">I'm quite happy with the rather old-fashioned quality of the illustration, probably a fair bit to do with the style and choice of colouring as well, and I hope you enjoy it. </span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 102);">Where's Talmac?
