Brief Break

Hey friends, I'm in need of a break to get through the last bit of vow renewal planning. After the vow renewal, I'll be on a vacation with my husband, and then I'll be back at it refreshed and new!

Tamberlane will return on April 25th. Thanks for your patience. I'll be happy to feature some guest art/comics in the meantime if anyone's got 'em. Feel free to send them to artist@cvilbrandt.com.

See you guys again soon :)

EVERYBODY STARE AT MILO!

Not a lot of composition notes for this page. The middle frame is long to promote that feeling of a standoff. The rest is pretty basic!

Sorry the buffer is not as far ahead as I like. The vow renewal planning has been eating my brain; it's two weeks away! After that it will be so much easier to devote my time to Tamberlane. Whew!

Poor Tam, she just wants to help!

Composition notes:

Not a lot for this page! 

Panel 1: I intended to split the groups in half with the BG but it worked out that it just split Walter out. Whoops. Also hi, Mimfry! 

Panel 3: I did a worm's eye view/upshot for this to make Belfry feel a little less approachable/a little more intimidating, because she's in a grumpy mood and to Tamberlane she feels formidable and hard to reach. Plus, it's from Tam's POV.

Panel 4: T...

Henry & Nora Sketch Comic: UNLOCKED!

Wow!! We hit the $2,000 stretch goal, which means a little side comic will be happening, concerning how Henry and Nora met and got together! This comic will be exclusive on here until it's complete, and it will be updated whenever a page is done, without a set schedule.

(also hey, have some old old old concept art of the two of them!)

Right now I'm still focused on catching up with the stuff I missed late last year from the Health Avalanche, and I'm nearly caught up. I've finished all th...

 Squabble squabble squabble! Poor Tamberlane. 

Composition notes:

The top two panels are actually one panel that I broke into two; the two are ragged along the center edges, and the talking overlaps the borders, to get across how bad the argument is getting. By the last two panels, things are mostly stable because Walter has taken control.

 Whoops, I think something boiled over~!

Composition notes: As things got worse and worse, I tried to make the panels reflect that. The first panel is a normal panel. As she waits on an answer, the panels shrink, making it feel a little off-kilter. The first "broken" panel has a straight border on the left: still 'ok' to start but by the time you make it to the right side, it's jagged, like Bel's rising frustrations. By the time it makes it to the last panel, it's falling out of the "safe...

Hey look at that, a new scene! Get some survival instincts, Tam!

Also, hello in the back there to Callie, Zaukodar's patreon cameo! She'll be in focus later I swear.

Have you checked out the Kickstarter yet?

There're some beautiful Tamberlane books there! And if we reach the  stretch goal, the most adorable enamel pin of Marie! But we can't reach  that stretch goal without you guys :D 2018-02-14 15:41:34 +0000 UTC View Post

I think he's already regretting this decision.

By the way, the Kickstarter campaign BLEW ME AWAY! We funded in 3 and  a half days! What the HECK!!! But we still have plenty of stretch goals  to go through, so if you've been dying for some fancy printed books of  Tamberlane, go get yours here! https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/cvilbrandt/tamberla...

Wasn't there some sort of festival happening this chapter? Also, welcome back Tess and Walter!  In the back there is Ainsley and Callie, the latter of which being Zaukodar's patreon cameo. Hi Callie! 

I'm so glad to switch scenes. I inevitably get tired of a color scheme pretty fast lmao. I really wanted to showcase the festival setup, no matter how masochistic it felt to draw it haha. So there's that nice big opening BG frame.

The frames with Tess at the bottom are intentional...
