Apologies for the lack of updates, people. You can blame Team Fortress 2 for occupying most of my free time (I am officially an addict, I think).

Anyways, for the next post I'm thinking of forgoing color and just having black and white drawings, as coloring occupies the majority of my drawing time (Damn that Open Canvas and it's lack of a -fill- tool!). Would you guys be down with that, or must it be fully colored, lest I suffer a public flogging at the hands of the masses?

Anyways, there are hats to unlock! Err... no! No! I must resist the temptation of Team Fortress 2 and it's first person shenanigans! Gaaah!

I have absolutely no idea what's going on in this fort any more. Migrants arrive, they die for some reason, the fort is flooded for another reason, then dwarves go mad, more dwarves die and I'm just laughing in my distress.

Black and white is fine. I'm a colorist and i know how tidious it can be to color especially if no flood fill tool is available.

Personally, I'd say do both.
Black and White for the bulk of things, colour when you feel a panel truely deserves that extra touch.

When it comes to it though, you're the artist and the story teller, and while the coloured pictures do have their charm, the story is rich enough that it would not suffer from this, as the way you tell the story paints a picture of its own, so to speak.

That's my opinion though, for what it's worth. At the end of the day it's ultimately up to you, and people should respect your descision.

Damn that Open Canvas and it's lack of a -fill- tool!
Can't you draw the picture in open canvas, and use another program for the fill tool?

Also, what kind of program doesn't have a fill tool? even MS paint has a fill tool!

I really like the color; I think a few colored panels are better than many black and white ones.
That being said, there's the risk of burnout. I don't want this to die. Black and white, I guess.
