Ep 67 Comparison (Final vs. Sketch)

XD These always are a lot of fun to look at ^^ Clove looks so out of it lol

Kirra Process

I actually suffered a bit when I had to kill the color saturation for the sake of a flashback but at least I get to show you guys how some of the colors looked before those adjustments! I really worried readers wouldn't be able to tell who she was but I hope that shoulder tattoo make it a lot more clear. 

Here are some quick comparison panels of the sketch/lines/finished panel featuring a young empress! XD Attached is a also a psd file featuring an empty lineart in case anyone is i...

Kharis Illust + PSD File

IT's DONE! PHEW! Finally, I can't remember the last time I did a proper illust. I think there's definitely a few things that I want to tweak (more sparkles here and there) but overall I think I'm done staring at this thing for a while now!! :"D 

See attached for the layers + psd file! :D

Steamy Kylove Doodles >//<

OOPs my hand slipped XD

I had this in my wips of doodles I wanted to finish and color (not actually the storyline guys) but I decided to post this here since I have a habit of getting caught up with updates and not being able to finish these sorts of things for weeks on end!  

Note: Yes I know their tattoos are missing but I'll make sure to add them in the colored ver!

EP 56 Backgrounds

Believe it or not these two panels (that readers probably spend less than 2 seconds on) took about 1 month of work on and off between building the 3D model, getting my colorist to paint it + my final adjustments. Over all, I'm really really happy how it turned out (I had a very specific image in mind for this chapter) but boy was it stressful! XD 

FYI: I did not build the model (a family member kindly learned sketchup just to help me UwU)  but I did spend hours compiling tons ...

Steam Mini Comic (Part 1)

Clove, I told you not to turn around!!!   (FYI: This is not part of the official storyline but I hope you guys enjoy regardless!) 

Huhu, Finally had some time to finish this!  Like I mentioned, I started this mini comic a while back so I'm happy I got to finish up working on it (I have a part 2 in store as well!) It was fun getting to use my cherry blossom brush (they're not actually roses but sakura petals go figure). Also, once again I nearly forgot Clove's dragon ...

Coloring Instructions!

I forgot I had these but I thought it might be fun to share them with you guys! These were the files I sent my colorists as a color test before I hired them. The results I got for the Clover render were all very nice but I did have few people express that they wanted to try my "test". 

While I already have a good set of assistants now I am constantly looking for talented individuals who can help with the comic. If any of you would like to have some fun and try the SubZero Coloring ...

Clove Color Process

Behold! Another step-by-step! 

You would think by now my process has gotten a lot more efficient (and it has a little) but there's still times I stress during the week for meeting the update schedule. XD  In the meantime I'm going to start looking for an extra colorist so they can help me render these strips more easily. 

I'm a total control freak about this comic but I hope I can find someone who can help me with rendering the colors to make it look even better!! T...

ONE YEAR! WIP

Fun fact guys, SubZero launched as a featured/original wt last year on Oct 21/22nd! T_T I can't believe it's already been 1 yr since then and how my life has changed since then! 

I remember long nights were I could not fall asleep because my mind was so set on what would happen in the future. I would tear up and cry feeling that I had to push my art aside and give up what I loved in order to support myself. THANK GOODNESS THAT'S OVER! 

In all honesty, you guys are the so...

Beach Comic (Parts 1- 3)

AHH Finally!  I was racing to finish this last min for my $5 patrons! 

I made a few edits to add in Clove's tattoo!  I don't know how Kyro's face can remain fairly constant throughout this entire ordeal! 

  Attached are the full res Jpeg files of these strips! I hope you guys enjoy this mini comic! I want to try and make more (slightly less intensive) silly comics in the future!

Sketch Comparison E34 (part 1)

Hey guys! Did you all enjoy Ep 34?? I've been building up lots so I could finally get to these chapters omg! (These cliffhangers will pay off by ep 40 or so XD) 

Here is part 1 of a sketch comparison for this ep! I ended up adding a few panels/flashbacks but cut them out of here for the sake of continuity! 

In other news, I had to take my kitty to the emergency these last few days so I've been a bit busy dealing with personal stuff T_T Thank you guys for all the support!...

Mask Asset + Preview

Is this a spoiler? Ehhhh... Sortof! 

All I will say about this is that the other day I asked my colorist to design me the freakiest demon mask she could think of... and boy does she deliver XD. We played around with multiple color schemes, including this awful goblin green until we finally settled on a red and white combo. (I know it looks blue in the above panel but I assure you it's just the shading). 

As for who this guy is, and if Clove will get out of this one.... w...

Ep 35 Sneak Peek

OHhh! Looks like the boys are arguing! (I wonder why?)

Update: I am currently 5 hrs away from my home. My family basically mandates that everyone take a 2 week beach vacation every year so here I am, slightly toasted but not enough to keep me from hauling my 22 inch Cintiq with me! All this sand and waves is a breath of fresh air. Now that I'm all set up, I'll make sure to doodle plenty of half naked SZ chars in their swimsuits! XD

Asset Render + Preview

Hey guys! Here's a quick asset render to show how I use 3D assets in my comic. 

If you guys didn't know, I absolutely HATE how 3D models can look when integrated with 2D art, so I spend quite a while rendering them to look consistent with the comic (seriously I think they're some of the ugliest things).

However, 3D assets are still a blessing since 90% of the work is already done! In this case, It only took me a few minutes to edit the original gold 3D model to this ancient, ...

Hey guys! Quick preview of an upcoming ep! (Boy do I enjoy beating up my characters) 

ALSO, for those of you who are expecting the comic to return today IM SORRY. 

After a lengthy discussion with my editor regarding schedule and marketing we decided to push back the return date to the 15th T_T.  Frankly I must say I'm a bit disappointed as I was really itching to come back by the 1st, but I guess it's just more time to get my life in order and give myself some buffe...

Tears - Speedpaint Process

Process of a very intense warmup sketch!  :"D 

Look at them butting heads!

Tears (Speedpaint)

 I just felt the need to draw these two with their foreheads glued together T_T,  Also I don't know why she's crying but let's just say it's because there's too much sun in her eyes, poor girl.

XD Quick, fun speedpaint before I start properly working today. This started off as a warm up sketch and then an excuse for me to play with sai brushes before I went all out!

See attached Jpeg file! It's huge!

SZ Banner (Comeback)

GAHH! I finally finished it (I don't even remember how far back the original sketch  was made) but this is the final result! XD 

I'm so drained right now I have absolutely no idea if I've been looking at this image too long or not ( I may still make some tweaks to it).

Other than that let's keep our fingers crossed that the WT designers don't make me re-draw the banner! XD 

Note: See high res png file attached!
