Here we are, in the world where every one of us wants to be instantly isekai'd to, the Halloween party that culminates the month of Orctober, the celebration of orc's lineage and its estimators. They're excited, sweaty, charmingly dumb, and they want to get dumber this night!
The orange guy is from @CaptainGerBear, while the purple guy from @Alexyorim93, that happened to be in poses and "outfits" compatible with a dance club scene. With strippers. Strippers with a heart of gold that have to pole dance in order to pay for their children's clothes or their own tuition fees.
The rests are the characters you already know and love: Kondar, the third member of the stripper squad that's trying his best to don't bend the pole while dancing; Rubor the caveman now very fascinated by glowing sticks and that the possibility to use the money to make people do what you want; and Herc… ah Herc I should really do something with you.
The last one is instead by @Boba_Zed, and stemmed the entire "Dance club for orcs" idea in my head. I had to redo the anatomy a bit, but I guess that's the magic of Tuskbuddy: hobbyists awing at how much pros can make out of their doodles, and pros just laughing at the various degrees of butchering their sketches can receive.
But it was the occasion to experiment with lighting in a dark scene so I'm unironically happy of having tried that.
I wondered why in a world where everyone has at least one quintal of pure muscles on his bones, plus variable amounts of proud fat, should anyone pay for seeing a stripper.
I guess, for the technical performance. Everyone has the meat, only the pros can shake it properly.
It was a hell of a month, the second wave of the pandemic, Twitter that screwed up the algorithm, my very unreliable RL constrictions.
I didn't stick to my objective of drawing the game backgrounds and sprites, but I felt like doing something more "social" like the Tuskbuddy exchange, that also helped me stretch a bit the boundaries of my comfort zone, especially with lighting, and I could experiment with something less permanent like the asset of a visual novel.
November, if the pandemic panic doesn't mess with my RL schedule much more, would be a good month to focus on the VN, the comic is in the middle of a sex scene between the safest bets of the furry fandom (lions and wolves) so it can generate involvement by itself.
Also, we really need something to spice up the most forgettable month of the year, and the No Nut November Challenge doesn't seem a safe option.
