    Oh my God, it's amazing I love it, but I was kinda hoping Witch would be doing witch-y stuff, y'know? Maybe like riding a broom with a cauldron hanging off the end and Witch holding a wand that's sparking purple magic stuff. But if you're unable to do that, I'll totally understand and will settle for a much simpler request. (Also I know I may be asking for a bit much, and sorry if I am, but could you also make his hair a bit longer in a sorta-emo-fringe so that it covers one of his eyes a bit?)

    And that's how to scare and confuse someone at the same time.

    Doot doot sunday update!

    @Witch Cat Is that better?
    witchcat's_rq.png

    Yup that's it, not much content for today.

    But wait! There's a spoiler just ahead!

    What could it contain!?

    Ah, it could have started so well...


    Welcome to Lodish's unnamed comic! This comic is largely inspired by Vurrunna's awesome Ask Laurence thread (go read it, if not done already); I wanted to have some practice with as many expressions, characters and situations, so an user-based comic seemed like the best idea.
    The story is entirely based on the viewers' input, you will be able to ask questions to the characters (because there will be quite a handful, of all goes well), and the story will evolve around these questions!

    Feel free to ask anything, even your darkest questions that are too awful to be asked to anyone the most unexpected questions! Forget about the fourth wall too, it has been demolished already to make some space.


    This comic will be updated on a weekly basis, on sunday's update; any question that isn't answered in time will be done for the next update.

    Oh, and about the name.
    I'm not even kidding, I don't have a name for it.
    This is the folder I'm using right now -> gvfrd.PNG

    If you guys can be kind enough to find one, I'll really appreciate it ^u^ (and this vali will stop mocking me)

    As a side note, requests have been slowed down quite a bit for this project, because: 1) That's a pretty long introduction, and 2) I had to learn a lot of stuff on the fly. (I had to sit five hours straight on my chair only to colour the whole thing, if I had more practice I could have delivered this update two hours sooner.)



    Well, I guess that's it.

    And now... It's time to sleep. :zzzweetdreams:

    Much better, thank you so much! Though I mean, replacing the jacket with a billowy and slightly oversized black hoodie miiiiiiiight be a slight improvement. And like, just have normal black jeans for pants could work, and black and white sneakers with a black witch hat on his head with a single purple stripe going around it near the base would also be nice. Yeah, I'm really sorry for not mentioning these little details beforehand. Tell me if I'm forgetting to tell you anything else so you don't have to constantly go back to edit everything.

    And also, how about calling the comic "Lodish's Legends" or "Ask Lodish"?

    I can't do names! I'll just go with @Witch Cat 's idea. I like 'ask Lodish'.

    I also have a question. Do you eat potatoes? If you do, do you like them plain, baked, or mashed?

    I'd also like to change my request. Do you think you could do a picture of an Avali with his arm around a human, like they're friends? Maybe smiling like one of those family photos.

    Chirp! Wednesday update!

    Here's my almost finished entry for the Monthly event, I've been struggling a lot with this dude's lineart...
    wizurd.png
    Not gonna lie, I don't like how it turned out. The lineart takes so much time that, once you're done with it, you've already lost the original idea behind the drawing. I'll learn from my mistakes, I guess.


    Don't you mind if I do some experiments on your request, @Witch Cat ? I'm trying to see if I can draw without a lineart, for the aforementioned reasons >w<
    witchcat's_rq.png

    Here's how it looks without the sketch, only with simple (pre-detailing & shading) colours:
    witchcat's_rq_sketchless.png
    Looks much cleaner, eh? :catnod:

    And finally, a semi-detailed sketch of a vali adventurer for an IRL friend, who is about to get the same no-lineart treatment (the vali, not the friend :nurutease:)
    avali_adventurer.png

    That is all for today, I hope everyone enjoyed!

    Until then! :zzzweetdreams:

    Why am I always so productive when I should supposedly be sleeping?
