Updates

Section 1.4 continues

Ah yes, finally an update, with four new pages--well, three and a half if you count the half-page from the previous update. :D() I meant to finish all the other unfinished pages in this chapter as well, but I still have a bit of toning left to do--for now, pages 6 and 7 have completely inked backgrounds, instead of the random scribbles from before. @_@

I should note that it's my winter break right now, and the new semester won't start until January 30th for me, so I'll have plenty fo time to catch up with comic pages and commissions. :3 ...But inbetween that, I got Animal Crossing for my Nintendo DS, so if you're into that, feel free to leave your friend code stuffs in the comments. ;D My village info is as follows:

Friend code: 4896-8700-9957
Town name: Alatus
Character: Hans
Fruits: Oranges, Apples, Cherries, Pears (somebody give me some peaches prease >3<)

Annnd new vote incentives: TopWebComics and Buzzcomix.net. The vote counts reset at the first of January so please vote then as well if you feel like it. :D

Finally, Salad Days has a link button now so they've been put up in the link page as well. :3

Yay an update! ^_^ The wait was worth it. Hmm... I wonder what happened to Azalea? I have a hunch... ^_^

I think there is an "I" missing in one of Ryan's bubbles. Azalea looks mean in the incentive, but I like her coat. The story is getting SO exciting! I can't wait for the next update! Have a nice break.

Yes! You finally updated! :D I agree that Azalea looked mean in the sketch^^, but still I liked her clothes. ...is Ryan finally getting the hots for Zephan? ^^ Just a guess about what her dream was about. Azalea's dream reminds me of a scene in the new Tokyopop series 'The Dreaming'. Hm...I have an idea of what's happening to Azalea. ^^

Yay!! And update! Good job!

A cliff hanger?! You're too cruel, Hans. Too, too cruel. Well I can't wait until the next installment!! Keep it up!

A cliffhanger after all this waiting...oh come on Hans!! You're keeping me in suspense again :( I love it though ;)

Posted by: Lucy | Dec 30, 2005 12:44 AM

*cheers* Hooray! DoD is back! It's like a late Christmas present :)

Welcome back Hans and I'm looking forward to a January full of DoD goodness. I don't play nintendo but good luck with the peaches.

Yay an update! Thank you Hans! *bows* Oooh cliffhanger ... grr. That's so mean =p Btw has anyone else found that the shop page on the website won't load? It's just that it won't work on my computer or the ones at school ...

I started to write lots of comments, then decided that I was writing faaaar to much. So I'll just say: the new developments are quite interesting! Lots of small touches that are very nice too.

(I like how Xin woke up earlier because of the weird dreams. Hehe.)

Posted by: Greyarcher | Dec 30, 2005 2:51 PM

Wonderful update! I cannot wait to see the next installment. The story is just fantastic.

Posted by: Katia | Dec 30, 2005 5:54 PM

I, too, liked the story developments. :) It's quite a bit different from the old version.

Yeah, like Jeesiang said, there's a small problem with what Ryan says on page 15 (http://directionsofdestiny.com/story/01.4/15.htm), I think. She says, "Um... I guess didn't wake up until past noon?"

Posted by: Kyraen | Dec 31, 2005 2:57 AM

yay! an update!
Interesting to see what happens to Azalea. I like the clothing in the sketch you see when you vote for Directionsofdestiny in buzzcomix

Posted by: Michelle | Dec 31, 2005 7:47 AM

YAHHH I nice long update (or i havennt checked recently) Truthfully i dont want Ryan to go with Zephan i hope a Azalea and Zephan go together i no there kinda in a fued right now but i like them together better!! Well who am i to say? Great update!

Posted by: Pauline | Jan 1, 2006 8:55 AM

It's about time! I'm kidding. Wow, those are great. I love the story so far and I can't wait to see more, but as I've said before, don't rush and skip out on the good quality we've come to enjoy and love! Keep it up, rest well so that we get more and better updates! ^_^

Yahooo~~ brilliant pages as usual, is xin sweating/wet around his face too...or is it just from the fog around them? :3~ Quee~ *waits for the next installment*

Posted by: afuji | Jan 2, 2006 11:12 PM

Squee! This is nice to come back to after my holiday internet-avoidance. Hurrah! Love it!

Posted by: Kelly | Jan 4, 2006 3:51 PM

There ya go, an update! And a pretty nice one, might I add. I was somewhat wary of this whole 'redirection' thing (my own version of such a thing with my writing commonly goes astray) but you have done a VERY good job. Keep it up!

Posted by: Shay | Jan 4, 2006 5:42 PM

Nice :] When will be next update? The best thing that is now, World of Warcraft, should be keeped aware from you..

Posted by: DeathComing | Jan 6, 2006 10:55 AM

urm. may i ask why azelea has sweat (is that what it is?) on her coat at the last page of the update after she faints? i just found it rather strange, since i didn't really expect her to sweat -that- much. O__o

ah well ^_^;; just thought i'd point it out.

Posted by: _gen.chan | Jan 8, 2006 10:09 PM

I thought it was water, that she'd fallen in or something and Xin saved her...

Posted by: Acey | Jan 9, 2006 2:02 PM

oh, indeed! lol! that makes a lot of sense. ^__^;; heh-heh-heh. thanks!

Posted by: _gen.chan | Jan 10, 2006 2:33 AM

Khe! Excusme, DeathComing nb.1. But i was using this nickname since 1989 so if you are younger you broke my artist laws etc :P . I have ocnections with CIA FBI X-Archiewes and Candy Shop :P
And if it was crumbles, it could come from cookies that bring this second girl (forgot name).

Posted by: DeathComing | Jan 10, 2006 9:55 AM

Of course! Water! Why didn't I think of that? Oh you're good.

Posted by: Hanh | Jan 11, 2006 3:24 PM

It saddens me that a plurality of my readers think Azalea has perspiration issues. :(

Posted by: Hans Tseng | Jan 11, 2006 7:30 PM

Hmm, I didn't notice the perspiration problem. I thought it was caused by her fever, but if she does, that would be cool. I like when main characters have flaws. She can be a stinky Azalea.

Posted by: Jeesiang | Jan 12, 2006 2:24 PM

That'd be funny^^ (ironic too), but I don't think so. I thought it was just from her fever. She looked like she was about to faint. I'm anemic, so that's happened to me lots of times-I think you all underestimate how bad you feel when you're in that condition-the sweating amount looked almost realistic. And Slimu probably was just trying to dramatize it, you know? I wonder when we're getting our next update.

Posted by: Esther | Jan 12, 2006 5:50 PM

But he wasn't trying to dramatize it by drawing lots of sweat on her; it's water. Notice that Xin is also wet.

Seriously, it's not sweat.

Posted by: Silla | Jan 12, 2006 10:30 PM

It's rain, not sweat -- they're all wearing raincoats / gear. Stuff for chilly and posssible showers. XP
I suppose it just stopped raining, since no one's got umbrellas.

What I want to know, is what happened to Xin's scarf and hat?

XD *instigating*

Posted by: Caitlin | Jan 13, 2006 7:09 AM

I don't remember who said this, but...

I'm more than sure that Azalea fell in the water (see the circle of water they're walking besides?) and Xin jumped in and pulled her out (or something). Unless...

...everyone commenting is like, joking and I have no idea... o_O

Posted by: OmegaZen | Jan 13, 2006 5:36 PM

It is neither rain nor sweat. While it is foggy, it's not raining; Azalea fell into the water. Xin pulled her out. This can be deduced since the both of them are dripping wet (including their outer clothing), but neither Ryan nor Zephan has a drop of water (or sweat) anywhere.

Definitive! ^_^

Posted by: Silla | Jan 13, 2006 10:55 PM

Does anyone know when the next update might be?
