Description
Someone reminded me today that I haven't added a new Much Ado teaser in a while...sorry about that! It's getting harder and harder not to spoilerise the story. Unlike with Hamlet, I don't think Much Ado's story is quite so well known...so I wanted to be a bit careful.Anyways, I thought I'd show something intriguing, so here you go! I hope you like the look of it...ah, how brief the happy moment between these two is. What COULD she be saying? ^_~
As with all of the Much Ado pages, this is the property of myself and SelfMadeHero.

It's so cool. I would totally buy a much ado about nothing manga....Do you just have the random pages?
Ooo twelth night would be good too. It already reminds me of being a manga type story with all the confusion and gender swapping.

Well you should totally check out the Manga Shakespeare series. My Much Ado is just one of the adaptations in the line. You can buy them from most shops or from amazon. Just search my name or Manga Shakespeare on amazon ^_^
There are 14 plays in all drawn in comic form!

Totally! That relief of 'they really DO love each other!' and then the shock as Beatrice breaks that moment with her request. Brilliant!

Ooh, a comic made from Much Ado About Nothing? What a creative idea! I love that play!

I wish it had been my idea, but alas, it was the publisher's, haha! But yeah, they're great fun to do and really work in comic format!

Darkness in comedy. I like it. Really love your thing with the glass here. Makes it more dramatic.

Thank you! It is funny that Much Ado is hailed as a comedy, and yet it's got such a dark middle section. I love it!

*hug* I love you!
I'm afraid I don't have a release date yet, and just realised you're in the US - so it mayyy be a little later there unless you import. Do you go to the NY comic con at all? I'm heading there this time and am doing a manga shakespeare signing on Saturday morning...I could show you some sneaky peeks

I WISH I could go to New York! I'm way out in Minnesota... That would be so awesome to see the stuff early o:! I'll probably just keep checking the website in the meantime x3;

Aww, well, I'll keep you posted ^_^

The layout is indeed interesting, but I'm always more drawn to your shocked/horrified expressions than the lovey-dovey ones XD Much more fun to look at *evil grin*
I can't wait for Much Ado ... and Merchant of Venice; you and Faye raaawk atm >w<

I do love shocked and horrified expressions, LOL.
I took far too much pleasure in drawing a totally distraught face yesterday, haha.

She's apparently saying something so bad it needs censoring? I'm kidding.
I love your take on panelling here. It's brilliant!

haha - I just didn't want to spoilerise the story just yet. there are some people who won't know the story and I'd rather let them read it in the book ^_^
I'm glad the panelling works!

So, do you use Manga Studio?
Great piece nevertheless ^^
π: 0 β©: 1
I do ineed. I draw everything on paper and then scan and ink in manga studio. But I'm also using non-MS tones sometimes by importing them in and using them as you would use a digi tone in Photoshop. I kind of meld stuff ^_^

. . . . I will now pretend to understand what you just said ^^
π: 0 β©: 1
haha- oops, sorry! You mentioned Manga Studio so I guessed you had used it yourself.
I draw everything out with pencil on paper, then I scan it and ink it in MangaStudio. I then tone in MS as well, but sometimes I will use other tone sheets that you can't get in MS. I do that by importing them onto my page and using them the way you would a manual tone...cutting and placing. ^_^
