If waiting will mean quality in the long run, I can wait :D

(i also really rushed the second half of chapter 2 in hindsight).
Your rushed stuff looks way better than something I spent a week on.


Also I'm willing to wait if it means we get more art.

Just finished reading everything you've posted so far, took me a few pages to get used to the panel layout but once I did I was spellbound! Icar is one of my favourite characters in any DF community story lmao.

Is the world you used for the story a modded one? The mention of sphinxes and winged intelligent dragons had me wondering.

It's actually pretty terrifying to think about having all of your fat melt off into grease because you started sweating too much.

Thank you all for your kindness & patience!  :'(

Yeah, i added a lot of new creatures and changed some existing ones. (adding wings and the [FLIER] tag to dragons, adding small horns to goblins, making most predators bigger, and more).
Don't want to spoil too much though.

Alright,
i'm getting used to being a father, and i'm slowly preparing my return to this project!

I do have a question to you guys though; would you be angry if i did this from scratch and treat the first two chapters as sort of a pilot?
At work i keep daydreaming about this and got tons of new (and better) ideas, + i spend so much time in legendsviewer and am embarassed to admit i got quite a lot of things wrong.

I also have been thinking about switching over to digital drawing (my GF got me ClipStudio a year ago, and it seems to be great for making webcomics/manga), although i'd have to experiment with that.

Better to start over now than to dig yourself in deeper and want to start over later.

You’ll scarcely find a more patient community than the DF one :P. Go for what you want to, and we’ll be here to read it!

It's your story do with it what you want.

My first attempt at using the 'real G-pen' brush in Clip Studio Paint.
Put a lot of thought into redesigning the world and cultures of this story. I changed Geño's hair for example since nobody in his culture would even think of a hairstyle like the one i gave him previously.
I also didn't like how i went for a somewhat generic medieval feeling for the winterlings. I want to change it to a more ancient setting (akin to stories like the odysee, the epic of gilgamesh, etc)
A time where bronze is paramount, iron is a rarity, and the manufacturing of steel is a secret well kept by dwarven civs.

I'm also changing over to digital drawing (using Clip Studio Paint) instead of doing it traditionally because;
-i won't have to buy paper
-i won't have to buy ink
-i won't have to buy screen tones (super expensive)
-better visibillity
-will be able to do it faster


What do you guys think?
Looks much nicer and sharper, doesn't it?

The quality it has increased ten fold!

What are screen tones?
