Even in Arcadia in Black & White… MANGA STYLE
on February 20, 2012 at 7:53 pm“Wait” you might be saying to yourself at this moment, “why isn’t this comic in colour anymore?”
Well, dear reader, Even in Arcadia will be going black and white from now on. If you have taken to reading the comments, my twitter or the blog section of this website, you will know that colouring every page takes far too long to be able to regularly update this comic. So, for now it will be in black and white. Will this mean more updates? Probably. As to how many, I’m not sure yet. I want to try out this process for a few weeks before I decide.
But, don’t despair. The first issue of Even in Arcadia will be put into print shortly, and it will be entirely in colour. In about 6-8 months from now, when the second issue comes out, it will also be in colour. So the online version will remain black and white, and free to read.
I hope this doesn’t put you off too much, it was a difficult decision to come to, but in the end it was make a change or stop making the comic unfortunately. I’m always overly ambitious to start out with, but don’t worry, I’m learning. Thanks for being patient with me, I really appreciate it.
Hm, are you sure that it shouldn’t be “hypotheses” in the last panel?
And I’ll miss the colours. But with the sparse updating I definitely see your point about it taking too long.
Thanks for catching the spelling. Changed.
Well… I guess it’s OK to post in B&W.
Just be glad that you’ve got a story to tell, young lady. This would’nt work if EiA was only excellent graphic art.
You are most definitely correct. The print version of the comic will be in colour though, so it’s not a total loss
