I saw that your group's looking for editors for the project, and since I like the comic I figured I'd offer. Um.. I haven't worked with any scanlation groups, but I did a scanlation for the first chapter of the Kingom Hearts 2 manga (before it was liscensed) which included sfx (pasting over for the larger ones that took up most of the art work, but most of them were shopped out and replaced with English equivilants), mirroring (ie, left to right), and translation and script adaption. Unfortunately this was years ago, and I lost my work in a HD crash, but I figured I'd put that out there as a nod to what I've done. It's been a while since I've worked on scanlations, but I think I could get back into the swing of things, and I could use the Photoshop practice.

Thanks for reading, and I look forward to hearing from you,
Snow and Ink

Hi snow

It sounds great. I could go on and on telling you how to do it but there really isn't a specific way to do it as you probably found out a year ago.
We got some tutorial which everyone uses and give them to others who wants to learn. The only thing we can do is that when you have tried your best, then we can go in and tell you how it is and what you need to do better. We can't tell you how to do it specific...we dun make vids but we can tell you stuff like "You missed this and that" or "That looks nice" or "You should have used the clone tool and then used some time cloning it instead of just pasting a copied layer from teh page".

As you know being an editor takes patience specially when you work with sfx but when you get the hang of it it doesn't take as much time as it did when you started.

Anyway before you go; RAAWRRRR I WANNA WORK NAO!!!
I need you to ask: Is it Glass Mask that you want to work with or just one of our other titles?
I'm asking this since Glass Mask is the only manga where we edit the sfx. Our other titles doesn't have that problem so they aren't that hard to edit compared to Glass Mask.

Hope I didn't scare you away^^

Glass Mask is the one I want to work on, but if you wanted me to work on other titles, I wouldn't mind. It's just that GM is the only (non-liscensed) manga I'm currently following, so I was like "HOMG, chance to work on this!"  bvahahaha Really, if there's a place that I can be useful, I don't mind if it's a title besides GM.
Sorry for the late reply!

...Now I don't remember if I replied to you or not since it's been a long time since I've had some real time...

Anyways...I'm going to check you the editor test and see how you do. After that I'll try to point out your mistakes and if it seems too much for you we can try to see if something else fits you better.^^
