Scorchfountain Gallery #6

 Wow this was a harrowing one in terms of artwork (as per usual, lately). Dipped a toe into hiring inkers for some of the sketches which really helped out in the end and i'm probably going to have to start doing it more. Again I thank North Dog and Beate Niewoudt for their help. Couldn't have done this episode in such timely fashion without them!

I didn't enjoy drawing the ettin, lol. I was pretty excited to draw her at first, but when it came down to it she just was kind boring ...

Scorchfountain Ep.6: Two Heads

 It's been 8 long years and Scorchfountain is beginning to shape up. Though, we dwarves aren't the only ones taking notice. Strange and evil forces are gathering at mountain's base. The time has come to work together. Two heads... 

 Tried out hiring some inkers for this episode! Namely, North Dog (who has been doing the numbers of the title screens already) and Beate Nieuwoudt. I haven't done this before and I think it really worked out well. Starting to realize that it's...

 I think this episode might have had the most individual pics of any episode so far. ended up being 60 different pieces/pages which is wild. Was only possible because of Mrs. K being around to help with the inking. She's been doing some great work with it and i'm very proud :))

Scorchfountain Ep.5: Silent Shadow, Quaking Hoof

 Danger lurks in the halls of Scorchfountain as the bodies begin to pile. 


I think this episode may have mad the most individual drawing of any i've done. that's pretty wild. I think having that little "break" last week really helped me. Also having Mrs K around has helped a lot too. She did do quite a few more inkings for this episode which ended up making it all possible. Hoping one day we can just do this show full time instead of her having to work where she doe...

Thanks, C. Steven Ross!

 This is a pic depicting a female dwarf gathering some honey with a colored glass window behind her. an odd combo to be sure but I think it worked out rather well.

Thanks again, m'dude :)

 Sooo many more pics than I had intended! I guess it was worth it though.

Fun fact: Mrs K actually helped me ink some pics in this last episode. Shes been out of work wince the 'rona been out and about so I figured i'd put her to work! (She did it gladly, there was no undue force involved) Curious if anyone can point out the ones she did.

 Also, that Obok. Man oh man. One of my favorite characters.

Scorchfountain Tales: The Damned King

 Today, my fine dwarves of the Scorching Hall, I'll be telling a story of life and love, of death and of broken hearts. Our story today regards a figure as powerful as he is mysterious.

This is the story, of Bim Fikodatir, The Damned King

Had a lot of fun with this! Actually did some searching through legends mode and found a couple of neat stories and i'm hoping to do another episode like this in the future, too (at some point)

Now, this was supposed to be a "to...

Scorchfountain Gallery #4

 Whew! Really put a lot into some of these!

It was fun to draw that Forgotten beast. Guy had a bunch of personality and I really enjoyed those beady little eyes, Also, it has been a pleasure drawing The Beardless as much as I have been. Kinda strange to draw a male dwarf with a mouth you can actually see. Easier to give him more personality that way I think.

As I had mentioned very briefly (using a sticky note at the end of the episode) I think next episode we're going to...

Scorchfountain Ep.4: Biding Time

 As the undead hordes continue their assault against the still-young volcano fortress, the dwarves look forward to a year of well-deserved rest. However, it may well be the least restful year yet...

Sorry for the delay on this one, y'bastards. Admittedly i've really been killing myself with this series so far, lol. I'm thinking that next week we're going to have a bit of a change of pace and might try to do something a little easier/shorter? Maybe like a legends mode interlude o...

+1 day

 Going to take an extra day on this next video, y'bastards. I really ended up liking how it came out but I think it requires a little bit more attention.

It'll be worth it!

The Music of Ivan Duch

 A big thanks to Ivan Duch for all his help on this series so far. The guy is a master composer and I couldn't be more thankful for all his hard work in bringing life to the fortress.

Go check out some of his music, eh? It's all pretty killer.

 I've been meaning to post the unedited pics for these but i'm still trying to get used to copy/pasting the unedited scans into a folder before I clip em' apart. Ah well. Got a bunch of pieces this time :p

Scorchfountain Ep.3: The Horn Beetle & 3-Eyed Fiend

 Sit, sit! Get comfortable my dwarves. Pour yourself a mug of spicy radish wine as I tell you a tale. A tale of foolish dwarves, 3-eyed fiends...and horn beetles. 

 Thanks ONCE again for all your help my buddies. You're all just too damn good to me.

Scorchfountain Ep.2: Heating Up

 So begins the second year of fledgling Scorchfountain's glorious life! With just a year left until countless waves of migrants arrive, will the dwarves of Scorchfountain be ready in time? Or will the fires of tragedy strike all too soon?

Thanks for all your help, you beautiful bastards. Sorry I get a little unresponsive at times. I still really do try my best!

My grandfather passed away last wednesday so it's been a little difficult around here, but no worries. Life kee...

This is gonna be a good un'!

Had a lot of fun with all the new pics, getting acquainted to all the new faces and figuring out what our new home looks like.

The beetle "beards" are called setae and a lot of bug have hair/fur like growths. Figured i'd amp it up a little for fun.

Note the necromancer does not have a beard despite being a male dwarf. I have not seen something like this before and it's freakin' me out.

The clothing! Really trying to make it feel mor...

Scorchfountain Ep.1

 A world forged in the fires of conflict and quenched in crimson blood.

This is to be a story who's end is not yet known and perhaps is a story with no end at all.

This is the story of Othlestzefon, Scorchfountain.



This should be a fun one!
