Something something white linen - Of Dragon and Woman #23

<-- | <-> | -->

Not sure why everyone ended up wearing white nightgowns today. It has a lot to do with me panicking and racking my brain whenever the time comes to coloring any piece of fabric to come up with any color other than washed out dirt to give it.

Speaking of panic, where the Hell did this entire week go? I have been feeling the crushing pressure of audience expectations combined with no audience support (aw, I still love you, dear reader.) And my sleep cycle has been all over the place. But still

Naah, that's an idle game. The time is just huge cause I keep it on while doing useful things. (Including sleeping.) Sometimes I even play it while playing real games, like

Okay, that checks out.

Anyway! One page this week, with several hours to spare. The next page is going to be much simpler and after that, who knows? I love my job.

Current reading: This lovely sad short story (I'm so going to make use of the phrase "It's rude to do things other people can't do in front of them"), The Martian and Homestuck.

Current music: London Underground.

Current mood: The feeling of lying on a heated stone floor gently washed with an ankle deep stream of hot salt water.

The colorist generally has the most satisfying job in putting the comic together, but this segment has its problem. Namely, 90% of everything is made of wood, hemp, dirt and other brown things. Also the people of Underhill River all have this cosmopolitan sandy brown skin tone for secret reasons. Weird little isolated iron age villages deep in the woods, what are you going to do.

What we're going to do is get this junkheap moving. Patreon is locked and loaded. I'm already envisioning myself alienating my 120 twitter followers and the fine people of Lrrchat as I plead and beg them to give me *cough*

I mean, welcome, dear readers, the many hundreds of you I imagine will find this comic in my near future. I hope you have some opinions; I hope the comic is giving you something. In all frankness, after 17 years I'm dying to hear what people think of what I do, so please let me know in the comments below.

The next page should be due as early in the next week as timezones allow.

This is the last of the 2011 pages which I think like one guy ever saw before. It's 6 o clock in the morning and I have another page laid out and dialogued and a patreon ready to launch. I don't know if I'm going to sleep today. Probably should. I'm seeing my one friend in 10 hours. But I'm aching to get this thing started, and I hope you'll help me, dear reader

My love affair with the green-blue section of the color wheel continues, but I'm not sure anyone could guess that's dried meat the newborn baby is eating. Maybe I should have had the characters explain it, as they explain so many things we're seeing here. Eh, the art still looks cool.
