Sincerely: I dunno why I went so hard with the lighting in the last panel but I like it. Elliwiny: You probably did that because otherwise it’d be a void, lol
Sincerely: Oh good, I was worried that the bongs being used to prop up the console screen didn’t make it onto the page. Bugbears can’t get stoned, so I’m not sure why they have them, but they do and they[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
Sincerely: Designing the bugbears’ living space was quite a challenge, lemme tell you what. We knew that there were going to be a lot of scenes in there in the next book (like the entirety of ch.2) so we had[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…

Elliwiny: I forgot about Seti’s little fingercap jewelry! That’s fun, past me. Sincerely: This exposition was much better than the chapter 1 exposition. I broke it up a lot more effectively and also it’s in chapter 3 so we’ve had[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
Elliwiny: I kinda wish I’d drawn Tath Seti on the interior of the bus, even though past me would have haaated it and it doesn’t really add anything to this transition. I just think the visual of Tath Seti’s posse[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
