Alright! I actually had this page ready in advance for you all this time! Yay for no lateness! (If you would hang out in the BOWBS thread, you also would have gotten the chance to see it 2 days in advance, that's the beauty of th BOWBS thread. That's generally where I post anything about BOWBS and my artwork. smile
Anyways, as you can tell, we're back to the original story! biggrin Halloween was fun, but it's time to get back to the serious business with BonClay & Alba. If you remember in the last page Alba looked like he was seriously hit by his brother! Bella's worried, Josh is even more worried that she'd jump into the fray... and what does BonClay mean by: "teach you something new," ? You'll find out in the page!
Now, before you start congratulating me on backgrounds... just know the the BG I used for the second panel is sadly not mine. >_> It's clip art that I got from a great tone site that offers: Screentones I have no idea how install most of the brushes but there are great BG images to use there so check it out if you suck at this sort of thing like me. lol
Next Page:November 19th

To All readers! Please try to get your friends to read this! I want to cause enough of a stir to get my journal put in the Featured Journal section on Gaia. So the more peeps that know about my manga the more attention I will get. So tell everyone, that if they like this they should comment, recommend and spread the word! I've met people who say they read but have never posted a comment. So maybe this will encourage them to!
Also, to get my journal in the Featured Journal section PLEASE select the recommend button under "Gaia Journal" up top of your journal options.

If anyone is interested in TONING! If you are and want to help me make this manga even BETTER then please PM me with samples and how you would tone one of my pages. I now have no gold to offer for this help. It would would be completely voluntary. Thank you for your interest.

Now, the picture of Bella running towards Alba was actually a completely different picture I made since the original one really sucked. lol Also it was hard to get the anatomy right with all those panels in the way. So, in this case I drew her separately and then inserted her into the manga. Ignore the fact that he hand is behind her skirt... the only reason why it looks like that is cause I knew her hand wouldn't make it into the page... and it would be work for nothing otherwise. lol
Here's the original picture of Bella:
If you wish to color it or edit it, you are free to do so! Who knows, maybe I'll be throwing a coloring contest in the future... so why not practice now right? lol

2nd post! For once I'm not late!
Ooh! I really like this page! biggrin Can't wait for the next one! And is it just me... or is Josh holding Bella's arm in a rather gentile way... Almost delicately... hmm.... *gets funny ideas in her mind* Ah! But wait, aren't they like siblings! *shakes ideas out* I really like Bonclay too! biggrin

Did Bella just help Alba's brother? o_O Oh noes...
I'm thinking I like the middle incerted panel with Bon Clay's eye. For some reason I'm just completely drawn to it. Fantastic!
Saw this two days ago, seems I would have thought of a better commentary by now.
Edit: I clicked recommend and it says someone already recommended it.

Oooh! I know what's going to happen now. xd Good work on this page Bella. Also, (I kinda agree with Shinja on that hand...)
I think your lines are starting to get more solid too. That's what I think, anyways.

@ Shinja: Well, they're not actually related... and their back-story is different then most... but once again, you'll have to wait a bit to get most of the story. >_>
@ Aposiopetic: I guess, you'll find out in the next page! xd
@ Korda: Yeah I know... but this apparently works... I dunno... :S
