Description

Thought I'd try... toning it down a bit. ;)

...........yeah I know. Sorry for that one. ._.

This is my first real attempt at screentoning... I should have used the hi res lineart but I didn't have it handy. Anyway... I'm trying to keep the tones simple (I've heard that only one or two different tones per frame is plenty). I added a margin, just cause it seemed right... I'm not sure yet what I want to do about margins, page numbers, etc--real Japanese manga usually don't have them, but the actual scans (which is how you're gonna be reading it, no doubt) look kind of amateur without some kind of uniform border/margin. Comments appreciated.

And since I forgot to mention it last time, New Moon is written in Japanese manga format--meaning usual comic rules apply, except follow the panels right to left. This first page really does come off as kind of inane if you're trying to read it the other way.

I got the tone stamp patterns from this site: [link] it's useful. really useful. if only they'd organize or label their stamps a little better...
