Description
I am on a roll this weekend! I started this picture this morning and just finished inking it. Isn't that awesome?! I'm so proud! I really need to start drawing more...Anyway!!!
This is Jenna from my Halloween Comic: The Worst Halloween EVER, which can be found in part on ~WhyTheWorldSucks . I know I didn't finish the second chapter, and for those of you who are avid fans (all three of you) I am truly sorry. If I didn't have a job that held all of my energy hostage... I would be bored as hell...
For those of you who don't know about The Worst Halloween EVER, it's about a young girl named Jenna, who in a case of mistaken identity is sacrificed to Satan, and wakes up in Hell and married to the Devil Himself. She is then visited by the Archangels Michael and Gabrielle, and Jesus H. Christ, and told that she must redeem 1000 hell-bound souls in order for her to go to Heaven. Along the way, she befriends a Hellhound puppy, the Grim Reaper and a full cast of Hellions, who all help her to overcome a demon even greater than the Great Demonlord.
... It's actually supposed to be a comedy. My real life friends think its funny... I think its funny...
Back to the artwork!!
All of my pictures of Jenna are always so happy and cheerful and whatnot, so when I started drawing this picture, I wanted to break away from the norm. The girl is living in Hell for crying out loud, it can't all be pink and peaceful all the time. So instead of being happy or angry or homocidal, I tried to show a sort of wavering faith kind of feel. I hope it came across.
But more than protraying emotion, I was focusing on developing my inking skills... Since I have none. For those of you that actually take the time to sit there for the hour or so it takes to read my artist's comments, I would really, really appreciate it if you could give a little bit of critique on my inking. And for those you who love inking and do it for a living, any tips or advice or your-doing-it-wrong would be so freaking awesome and I will love you forever.
Also, there's a reason I didn't color it right away, and it's not just because I wanted to show off the wonderful way my brand new scanner crapped on my lines. I actually want to allow you guys out there who fucking love coloring to just go to town on this baby. I want to see what you guys can do.
You never know, I might just hire* you to color the actual comics, since I don't want to anymore.
*does not necessarily mean you will get paid. You might get some free art out of me, but not real money. Because I am just as or more so broke than you are.

This is one of the most impressive versions of Jenna thus far.

Thank you I think it's because it shows a different side of her that we don't get to see very often.

I have to agree it is darker, but I like the wings! You should keep them. How are you changing up the story line?

Just adding a little bit more to the first chapter, so that the rest of the plot will make sense.

Nice job XD
The author notes are pretty interesting.
Will you color this in?

Thanks XD I take pride in my author notes.
Maybe. I kind of don't want to. The original looks pretty good without colors, but I'm letting whoever wants to to color it. I've been coloring a lot today. I'm a bit colored out. Sort of.

Jenna grows wings?!
Also, I really like the ink. I was thinking (before I read the comments) that it looked different than your usual style--darker/thicker and more comic-book-y.
...I will color this. You might not want me to by then, for I will be bastardizing your beautiful arts with paint.net. But I'm gonna do it anyway.

I'm revamping WHE, and giving everyone a little bit of a makeover. I want to put more in the first chapter, and the plot has a changed a bit, so I want to make everything fit. I think she looks kickass with wings, and those were just a bit of an afterthought.
Not paint.net!!!

Cool! XD She does look kickass with wings.
Yes. Paint.Net. It might be a while, though.

It's the next step up from Paint, available for free download. It's like... Photoshop lite.
