let's try something new. After a week of Pinocchio, I'm back at it with Crange and another story to wrap up a loose thread before we move onto the juicy end meat. To keep the momentum of updates on patreon, here's what they look like sketched out. I keep them loose, but detailed enough to know what goes where. I could probably stand to be looser, cus a lot of the art is in the inking I do, but coulda woulda shoulda.
They're blue due to a long lingering way of doing things when I did work on paper, using a non-photo blue pencil to, well, pencil. The scan wouldn't pick up the blue lines, saving me a step of erasing them.
MU PHI PHI is partly a joke and partly a reference that no one but my script that only I ever look at get, so let me explain my thinking: in the greek alphabet of frats, it looks like M ϕ ϕ, or 'moo' which is a dumb joke, but I'll take it.
Mostly tho, I took it from the demon Mephistopheles and the three Greek words that, combined, could refer to him. I got all this from wikipedia, so please take any of this with an inch of salt, I don't really know a lot about this shit, but it was a touch I wanted to add to the story. Same with naming the high school in Anime Club "Lascar Crescent High" in which lascar is an Indian name for sailor and crescent references the moon.
I'm sorry if I over-explained this. I was looking at frats and greek letters for at least an Hour on sunday thinking about this.
