HLWK: Corrupted Files Opening Scene
Added 2021-07-20 02:32:00 +0000 UTCWelcome to the Riddle Box Carnival!
When I originally started doing this random offshoot of a comic, I really didn't know what I was actually trying to do other than draw maybe a 20-panel porn comic. I had a slew of images all set up and I just needed to execute the concept well enough to justify them... but I also really love lore, and especially carnival lore, so I wasn't satisfied with just nsfw imagery. Hence, the Riddle Box Carnival was born. I even did a small opening teaser video.
The scene opens with a conversation between Luke and P.U.C.K. discussing the assignment at hand, yadda yadda, Luke needs to go retrieve special information regarding a serial killer from a bunch of clowns who are also serial killers but have unique insight. It's all stuff that I kinda just wrote on the fly and spiralled from there.
The churches themselves were designed after Scandinavian-style steeples in the midst of a very mountainous, foresty area. I wanted a strange, almost inaccessible kind of vibe for the setting to inform the reader that this carnival wasn't quite like most.
