Self Assessment for Endless Skies Chapter 1
In the version I just posted page ten is missing which sucks because that was my favorite one and it's kind of important because it's the first one I put dialogue on, and introduces Albani's little brother Leo. I now feel this opening is too vague, rushed and unexplained , I'm thinking of switching to colour and have learned new layout techniques so I'll probably redraw it in the not to distant future.
I've Also got better at character presentation, the second time around I want to make it clear how Albani's calm, curious and naive attitude gets him in so much trouble and nearly killed. I'm thinking of changing the organization's name to 'Root' but the boss of it will still be code named Wikka, later in the series Albani will go on a mission to find out the true identity of Wikka. The term has nothing to do with witches, I came up with it before I even knew there was a religion called Wicca. In this story, Wikka is a reference to the Iron Maiden song (Which has the best guitar riff ever!) and also a reference to the stick, the character, Wikka, caries a magical staff called 'Helios' and considers the stick a universal symbol of human progression.
The guy who talk's to Albani at the portal is called Markus, I didn't go out of the way for him to introduce him, as this was more of a cameo before he plays his mane part in the story and he's supposed to be a stern, mysterious character. Later in the story Markus come back to the Island and Albani asks him more questions about his life as a traveler, the more Albani learns about the outside world the more he want's to be a traveler too.
I'm also thinking about changing the Professor's name, not sure weather he should keep his Alis or not but he's not who he says he is.
I'm thinking maybe there's too many male characters now, though I didn't think about that before hand, the story kind of unfolded it's self I didn't get a say, but the second most important character, who happens to be female, Kukia, will be introduce in the second or third chapter. It might seem weird to have a main character introduced so late, but after teaming up with Kukia the two embark on adventure alone so the beginning is more of a sett up with minor characters that leads to the two main characters meeting, forming a team, and going on a mission.
Because of the structure of the series, the first chapter/episode is rather an odd ball, but it must also show how Albani is safer and more fortunate in a team than when he's alone.
