I really like how the top page with the sky bison and unagi turned out, especially the second and third panels. Before I started this comic, one of the things stopping me was I couldn't get my lines to look clean. They would look great on paper, but when I scanned them... eh. I solved that problem by using vectorization software or just drawing straight on a tablet, but some of the drawings on this page I did quite a while ago on paper. I got the idea to try to make the rest of the page match the imperfect pencil line quality rather than trying to somehow fix the lines.
One of the reasons for making this comic is wanting a place to experiment and improve my technique. I know it's a bit odd having it switch styles like that, but since I have problems with my hands I don't have enough hand endurance to practice much outside of making the pages themselves. While I like how it turned out, it did take longer to do. I might play around with this style a bit more later.
