#67 - hardening (scrapped mini-comic)

And here's the scrapped mini-comic. Naturally, there is no dialogue since I was saving that for last. You're going to have to fill in the blanks with your imagination. The first 21 images were basically complete, while the ones after that are still a little rough around the edges. There were a few more parts to this, but I never rendered out those parts and it's unlikely that I ever will.

As with all of my other mini-comics up to that point, these were all non-commissioned and completely complimentary on my end. Their purpose was just to flesh out a little bit why these characters end up doing the dirty with each other. They usually didn't involve any creative input from the commissioner themselves, and this one was no exception.

Basically, the story for this one was that this big goat was being called in for an "inspection", and he's very shy and nervous. The Kul'tiran on the other hand, is much more confident about his inspection despite his out of shape body, and decides to "help" harden the goat by teasing him, eventually leading to sex. You didn't expect award-winning writing did you? It's not meant to be deep or anything; just plain fun.

This mini-comic was in production long after the actual commission was complete, so in addition to looking a little better visually than the commission, it also includes some subtle characterization quirks. For instance, the super nervous goat is almost entirely the brainchild of my then-new friend, the enigmatic "Goat Husband" you may have seen me mention frequently on Twitter. The only "improvement" I ended up retroactively adding back into the commission was the goat's blush in certain shots.

That about does it for this one. I'm never gonna go back and finish this mini-comic properly; I've already moved on. I mean it's over 2 years now.
