This episode got some rave reviews by my test-screeners.  Bonus points if you get the musical reference!  You should also know that Comic #23 and Comic #24 are already done.  I'm swiftly running out of pre-shot images to work with, and the weather isn't cooperating, so I may have to resort to some camera tricks to do the next stuff.

On the upside, I have lots of "next stuff" planned!

This is technically the last strip of Season 1!  My god!  Imagine, we've gone full circle:  Habbo and Goldhook hanging out on a boat in Strip #1, to the reason that Alleron's navy found Privateer Point!  We've even seen hints that Alleron's government isn't all its cracked up to be, what with a decorated Admiral defecting.  Wow!

I'd written more strips for Privateer Point, mostly focused on Samuel/Victoria's establishment as characters, but Habbo and Goldhook are the protagonists, here.  This story is seen through their eyes, mostly; at least until well into Season 2, and probably always with them as a lens for the reader.  However, I'm thinking that an exchange between Swiftshank and Whitesand might be a wise idea.  In fact, it could be fun!

So Season 1 will officially end with what I've already whipped together, that being the land-fall Habbo and Goldhook make.  Season 2 also starts with footage shot outside, in the real world, meaning it'll look much more awesome.

In the meantime, enjoy!

This one seems to have fared a lot better, when it comes to effects.  The shield overlays are much more what I'd search for in the future, while even the energy cannons (at full charge, naturally) look pretty decent and seem to bleed well into the defenses.  I touched up the facial expression on Swiftshank's pal and refined the dialogue a bit.  I even tweaked the cannon/engine on the Beryllius a touch, just for effects' sake.  Now they look disabled.

Anyhow.  That's all.  Enjoy!

I tried to reduce the overall image size and increase the font size.  Hopefully this is more legible.  Also, hopefully, the effects are a touch better.  I upgraded the magic-gathering images.

In the shooting department, today, I got 2/3rds of what looks like my camera set-up established, and used it to take some test shots.  Some are "promo" pics, and will be re-shot.  Others probably will not, just to guarantee the sixteenth episode!

In the meantime, continued feedback on how the revamping is going is, well, needed.  I need the input!
