page 12 of part 3 of this
I like the colors on this page even though they are lifted directly off of previous pages where I was less taken with them.
I must say I am continually disappointed with how relatively reponsible nemitz is turning out to be. Although consider that it acts like a buffoon when it enjoys something but suddenly acts like it is smart when elpse does something stupid. Typical hypocrite mitz.
I have blatantly ignored where that circular table was on previous pages. I am not Herge or Don Rosa, I can get away with that.
Don Rosa once drew some Scrooge McDuck comic scene from two different angles in two different stories since one involved time-traveling to the other, and he made a special point that all the bricks and incidental background details were consistent even though almost nobody would check on that. I am the sort of person who would check on that, but regrettably also the sort to hope nobody else would check on it.

This here`s me trackback!
Purplespace sez:
It’s interesting to learn more about elpse and nemitz!
charmlatan sez:
Agree with the purplespace. After spending years getting to know elpse and nemitz through their actions and character (nemitz is becoming more responsible, isn’t it?), it’s gratifying to finally learn about their origin. I felt they were different (far removed from the denizens of this city, and naked), but I never would had believed they were ALIENS!
Sounds like we’ll be seeing the metropolis from your April 23 entry soon…well, eventually.

spack: I hope you do not mean that!
the incredible charm-lad: elpse has noted that their alienship is not very special! Unfortunately the domain I intended to flash-back to is enclosed and not as interesting as the floating city, since I conceived “gluislud” prior to drawing that, even if the name was rather unplanned.
EVEN though I have not yet put it in the story and can show whatever I want, right? No! It is necessary for the location to be maneuverable, and for a maneuverable object to be plausible, to me, it is necessarily not so big that it has an atmosphere inside.
ALTHOUGH I am making it up so I can do whatever I want, right?
charmlatan sez:
Right. So far, no descriptors have been placed, except that it’s a city and moving. Anything is possible. Who is to say a giant floating city is not in constant migration.
Right.
Indighost sez:
Agreed with all above. Additionally, the colors seem especially lovely. Elpse looks particularly majestic in this periwinkle color that he (?) becomes in the touch of sunset.
