I check in on your DA gallery quite often, so for me update announcements here aren't really necessary. Nonetheless, I think just adding to this thread is the way to go.

I tried to use a smaller preview (300x300), but if it's smaller it just shows as a small thumbnail instead of the full-size picture.

I'm not sure that my posts here need a picture from the page I'm posting about, but it's kind of fun.

Update today, page 70 "Too Soon":
http://pulse.comicdish.com/

Any guess on what Annie's measurements might be?  She's about 5' 3".  I'd (maybe incorrectly) estimate somewhere in the (wide) range of hips about 35"-36", waist 22"-24", underbust maybe 34", bust 40"-50", bra cups somewhere in the "I" or "J" range?

Update today, page 72 "What She Does in Private":
http://pulse.comicdish.com/

I thought I should end with her having a more positive option of her new body.  Although maybe she should be smiling a little in that last panel.

well in the preview picture, she has about the length of her head of cleavage sticking out, thing is, it looks pushed up. if it isn't you're looking at about 8 inches of bust, putting her at a 42" bust or H-cups

The shot is sort of looking up at her from slightly below, like a worms-eye view maybe.  But if her bust is being pushed up is probably open to interpretation.  Her breasts are about 3/4ths the size of her head (and because it's not a common size for me there is probably more variation than normal).  But I wanted to make her small enough that I could move her up to head-sized without going into another range if I ever wanted her to grow a little more.  And also she has kind of a unique size compared to other characters I've drawn which is kind of nice.

An opinion (so detailed that I felt like I had to include) from DA was:

Quote
She looks very similar to a slimmer leanne crowe (44-30-38 = 34k, 5'7). Definitely perkier and fuller than Anya sakova (40-25-36 =32G, 5'5) but also has more hips and a bigger butt than Anya. I'm guessing she's got a 30" band, and I am guessing Aonar is right because a smaller band and same cup as Anya would look proportionally bigger.

So, running numbers from those, I'd throw out:
30g,-26-37 = 38-26-37

Most extreme (if she's thinner than I estimated above) I'd say 28h-25-36 = 37-25-36.

Not claiming any expertise, just guessing.

Although I like your estimate better  ;D  The average guess was "G", with one "H", and one "F" I think.  I thought the result would be higher, but I probably didn't consider before that I'm comparing her to models who are much taller.  I'm kind of happy/satisfied with the hips estimate, I've tried to make her more shapely over the years (she started out almost straight up and down physically).  A 5' 3" asian with 37 inch hips would probably be pretty impressive.

Maybe I should split the difference between 42" and 38"?

Update today, page 76 "Fly or Die"
http://pulse.comicdish.com/

Recently I've started hearing that some percentage of people were having trouble telling the characters apart, although others disagree.  My first solution is to add color (something that has been requested anyway), although only flat non-shaded colors at the moment.  I'm also going to consider if I need to alter some of the characters who have appeared less so far (Lucy, Mira+Arim).

A little "flat" color like that is perfect! The cherry atop the sundae, as it were.

Thanks.  I'm still debating if I should stick with flat colors or try to go with shaded colors (which would take a lot longer to make each page).  A couple of people complained about the change, preferring B&W, but I guess I've had mixed feelings as well.  Each option has it's own strengths.
