As for WN, here's the thread for discussing the current MH page. Since I have had no new MH pages for a while (a really, really long while), I will post the one I'm working on currently, when it's done. Then we'll have something to talk about. Sorta.

How come the crabs shell has three, three, then four purple jewel thingys, if each segment is geometricly identical to the ones above it then why duz one more show on the bottom? (finnaly thought up something that would fit withen this section...BTW i have major trouble spelling, i dunno why.

Um... becuz It's not geometrically the same on each segment. The bottom one is bigger, thus, like many towers, it's a geometric shape with more sides, giving the above segments more support.
EDITED: I should always write my responses three times before submitting them, because I'm so quick to fly off the handle. I get testy about stuff like this, because I do try very hard to make the pages look good. I usually miss things and have continuity errors flying every which way, but the truth is, if I were to make sure every page was visually perfect, the comics would never get updated. So I hope these little screw-ups aren't making the comics less believable, because they are probably going to keep happening >_<.

erm... looking at that page again, i don't think it's a screwup... the alignment suggests that you just can't see the purple (i'm guessing they're windows, not jewels...) thing on the higher rows because of the angles... anyway, looks fine to me... wouldn't worry about it too much . -- martian sushi

They are in fact windows. As long as things like this aren't immediately noticeable when reading the page, that's all I care about.

Lol srry i maby i should have said not to take me very seriously i was just nitpicking. inserted after initial typeup: (the following paragraph is wordy and could be skiped. it basicly argues aginst the posts on sturcture, dont read it if you can avoid it. i like to hear myself talk/type. and am very argumenative especialy when told im wrong. [also it is a english teachers nightmare]) In respawnse to the previous post(s), Yes it is geometricly flawed, in the case of towers a bottom support structure would not normaly have more sides then the top support structures unless it has approxamately double/tripple/etc the upper structures proportions, tis is because of the problem of an inbalance of weight on the bottom structures [if it wasent perfectly balanced with an insain level of detail it would collaps, thats why buildings that are strangely desinged or break this constriction are considered modern marvels, cuz of their difficulty of design and construction] thus instead of it haveing more facets (sides with purple things) the facets would become larger as you go down to wile keeping withen proportion, in your drawing they had grown very little on the horizontal plain but continued to grow on the vertical causeing the extra one to become neccisary. simply put, they werent fat enough for the proportioned growth . (im makeing educated guesses based on what i DO know, im not an architech) and second, dont worry about it , the comic looks great , you can tell alot of work was put into it (and on every page i might add) and that is the reason i first started reading and why i keep comeing back [hopes in vain for update to MH]

Haha, don't eat the crab. XD I'm sorry guys, I keep letting things get away from me, and I've gotten so far behind on everything. I'll do my best to update this thing soon. (I'm sick of looking at the dumb crab too)

Aw, he's sad to see Kit go. Cute!
Hm, now I'm going to go back to page nine and directly compare them to see if the two-year monster gap changed anything. XD

Wow, they ARE different.
The lineart in the new page is finer than in the previous ones (and it looks better, by the way. Did you change pens or something?). Also, after going back a few more pages, the water is actually transparent now whereas before (when the crab emerged) it wasn't. Good improvement!
Still, I don't think that anyone who is unaware of the massive updating hiatus is going to notice when reading the comic straight through. I had to go back and study them to notice the changes myself.
