Prologue - Page 15: The Crowd is Going Wild

kenisu - #15
In starting this page, I found myself lost. I knew how I wanted this scene to culminate (you'll see what happens in the next page), but had no clue as to how to bring it about. This was one of those moments where picking up the pencil and just drawing it panel-by-panel enlightened me, so that I knew what direction to take. It was quite a miraculous touch-and-go, and I'm really pleased with how it turned out.

Anyway, I love that last panel. I grabbed my copy of the MOTHER 1+2 official guidebook and illustrated the map layout of the lake section of the mountain; and that off in the distance is the mountain peak. A severely important thing will happen on that peak in the distant future...	12/1/06
kenisu3000	Prologue - Page 22: The Sentence is Passed	kenisu - #22 This is one of those times when I kinda wish I had gone with the EB Zero town/area names instead of the names from MOTHER. "Holy Loly Mountain" sounds just plain silly, and doesn't convey the sense of horror and majesty that "Mt. Itoi" does.	12/1/06
kenisu3000	Prologue - Page 21: They Know Not What They Do	kenisu - #21 Ugh, how I hate drawing crowd scenes. Fortunately, as this page only shows a few crowd extras, I was able to get by without losing too much sanity, but... the next page...	12/1/06
