Why Does the Art Look Like Garbage? I Thought It Was Getting Better!

Sorry guys, I feel bad posting this without it being completely polished, but I would have felt worse missing this deadline which would have made it harder to keep going. 

So, here it is, and next time, it will be better!

I took advantage of Clip Studio Paint's sale and learning the program took quite a bit of time, but at the same time, I'm really excited because the comic's art style is just going to keep getting better and better! Medibang was a great program, but it has so many limitations, and Clip Studio Paint has so many features specifically for comics that will not make them beautiful, but faster to make! 

For example, it has a feature that it colors the comic for you with hints, but I found it's actually a hit or miss kind of thing, I wasted a lot of time trying to fix it, but in the end, I learned a lot. 

So please look forward to that!

I sure am!

Actions Having Consequences

So, Allan, the orc, was just supposed to be a throwaway character. He would get in a fight with Matthias, the main character, and... wait... they would both probably get kicked out. Thus, Allan stopped being throwaway baddy for the character to fight to being a good, honorable family man who is just a little overzealous about his home (if Argentfall had a football team, Allan would host the Superbowl at his cottage). Then, once again, Allan steps in to save Matthias, but then I remembered that he knocked over the Lady of Argentfall, and you REALLY can't just get away with that...

It's really fun to think about how spontaneous events will affect the main goal, and not only do they bring us to the end faster (webcomics' pace can be really slow, I realized), but also it forces you to think how the characters will respond based on their personality and past traumas. 

It's kind of like falling in love. You can spend years getting to know someone and realize they're the one, or, if you're unlucky, lots of terrible things will happen at once (loss of loved ones for example) where such events really show a person's true colors.
