A necessary evil, and one I greatly underestimated haha 🙏😭💦
My original draft didn't have this entire section of panels. The castle itself was such an afterthought from the character interactions.
So when it came time to fix my pacing, I knew I had to introduce the castle in the eyes of Cassidy as it's her first time along with us to see it. You don't go into a big fancy place and not look around right!? It made me realize I still have a long way to go in terms of both asset building and time management.
The character outlines took less than half the time figuring out the backgrounds did. 😭💦 Already there are things I wish I did differently with some of these shots, but it's lessons I'll take with me moving forward. I don't plan to compromise the comic to avoid establishing backgrounds like these. I just need to prepare myself ahead of time if I know I'm going to be tackling scenes like this again. (like the very next chapter aaaahahaha 😂💦)
The next updates are looking to be real sweet! I was thinking of making the 6.3 preview not so spoiler-y. However, you beans are waiting an extra bit for this, so I might as well show you what you have to look forward to in EA this coming January 😳💖
AND?? What's that mysterious extra panel??
You might not see the finished thing for awhile yet (I'm still working on it as we speak🙏💦 ), but I've been slowly making a guest comic for another creator with our characters! I wonder who that lady is that got Cassidy so mad!? 😱‼
I hope you sweet beans have a lovely holiday week! 🥰💖💖💖
