Hello to anyone man enough to reply to this thread! ;) :cool:

So here's (http://www.quarter-four.com/index.php?strip_id=29)the late Halloween I spoke of, and the follow-up to the Costume Concept strip.

I'm kind of tired right now so I'll just copy/paste part of the rant I wrote on the front page.

I put a back-breaking effort to make this week's comic's graphics a little better than usual to make up for not having a comic last week. Well, okay, I didn't break my back...and it was quite fun to do. I'd love to make every week's comic this way but sadly I don't think I can do that once I return to school which may be soon.

For anyone who may not have noticed, not counting the face-less extras in the backgrounds all the time, this is the first time a female is on Quarter Four and has a speaking role. Yea, "What took you so long, Saadat?". I've actually had plans for a recurring female character since last summer. But I thought I'd let folks get to know the four guys(or as Drakon on the forum and I and lovingly call them: "The Four Quarters") before bringing in anyone else. For anyone who may be wondering, this recurring female I had planned is not Georgia from the strip above. I'm not sure exactly when I'll bring in a new character. It may be soon. Keep yours eyes peeled for any more supporting female characters with faces because that just may be the one.

Anyway, a rant longer than two paragraphes is very unlike my shy self so I'll end this long-winded note. Thanks for taking the time to read!


Also, for the heck of it, here's the original Disco-Dojo Dwak sketch I had shown folks:

It does look nice. Especially panel three.

You mean the one where the girl tells Dwak her name? What do you like about that panel?

Dunno, really. I guess the best part is the angle of her head, and the expression.

The only problem I have with the outfit is he didnt have the platform shoes with the goldfish swimming inside the heel, otherwise it was perfect :D

And to think, he is over shadowed by the Godzilla costume.

There's a bald Bucky in front of him. :(

I saw that.

Also, is someone dressed up like Boy on a stick?

No. That's Dwak when he's wearing shorts. ;) :p ...kidding.

But there are a few more interesting costumes in the first panel (not counting Dwak and Georgia).

But where's teh fun in me being the only one pointing them out? ;)

One person pointed out one to me that actually wasn't intentional...

Actually, what is "Boy on a stick"? You used it like it was a proper noun so I assume it's some actual existing character?

So, you're Halloween came in November. Big deal. The Simpsons do it all the time (thank you very much World Series).

Yea, I thought about that, too. The Treehouse of Horror episode this Halloween was yesterday, no?

Also, Panel 1, lower left. Was that supposed to be a classic X-Men look, or just random colouring?

I'm surprised anyone noticed him.

Drakon

Then it IS supposed to be classic Cyke or something?
