@rumpenstiltzkin Same.
Also, I think these are my most used expressions.

@AfroAtelier thank you! And I’m loving the lost sketch of your knight. If you ever decide to start taking little nibbles of that again, I’m all for seeing that sketch come to life.
@LCT_m_a_d yeah, totally had some fun with the dragon brushes for ornamentation. That was mostly messing around, but I think I’m gonna go deeper. Also, I am enjoying every update to your sketch!
@rumpenstiltzkin I feel the winter mood in your sketches (And they are marvelous).
@nathanKmcwilliams loving the kinetic energy today! And heck yeah, wrong pens make all the best drawings!
More studies/concepts on the docket today (and maybe a spoiler or two for the comic…)
@Kelheor dying over the mouths and eyebrows on these guys :o. If there's anything helpful besides sending energy/the virtual hugs, say the word.
@Black_Conscious Loving the Disney girls - nice job with the textures and effects!
@Kittyfox woooo that's some chromatic aberration - comes off very cool on your character, those hits of yellow against the purple are sweet.
@nathanKmcwilliams the blue pen sketch came out pretty badass, seems it worked out.
@AfroAtelier losing all the work sounds like such a nightmare, sorry that happened to you :<. But it's awesome that you were propelled into watercolors!! That armor sketch looks very cool and yes, very daunting!
@rumpenstiltzkin oh just adore these <3. I feel like all of them!
@LCT_m_a_d enjoying the new icon - reads well and looks cool at both scales - nicely done! Feels like the time-consumingness of making comics is a very shared struggle :).
@DanielRKM wicked!! I was curious yesterday when I moused over and saw the title ;D can't wait to meet her.
@rumpenstiltzkin I love these looooong ears so much
@LCT_m_a_d hope to see more of it soon!
And definitely hoping for the holidays to be more relaxing
@migxmeg thank you so much for your support
Ha! Oh no! I had no idea you could mouse over and see the name! Nooooooooooooooooooooooo.
Welp, that’s a solid whoopsie-doo. Hopefully we won’t disappoint on the comic’s final reveal/the further mysteries (and I mean the “royal we,” because that makes it seems like I have a PR person who missed that detail too and it wasn’t just MY mistake).
@nathanKmcwilliams I am stink’n loving these sketches.
@migxmeg I feel like I’m my own Tom Holland right now.
Thanks! I'm exploring a world concept where 7 space dragons started (and FINISHED) an apocalypse. All to prove how big and powerful they are to their progenitor. I want to get weird with these designs. So we're talking multiple eyes, strange limbs etc.
It is 100% a Power Metal inspired fever dream. Well, like anything I make I guess so that's nothing new
Last thing and I'll shut up. The protagonist's journey is very much also based around this song. Which I've included as a plot hook or reference for basically every version of Dragon Sparking that I've brainstormed. Something about this song just works for me.
@nathanKmcwilliams Loved “I’m going to get weird with these designs.” Let’s get weird! That sounds like a fun story idea and your passion for that song got me to check out some death metal (which is rare for me, but I love me some passion).
@migxmeg ha! Yeah, I was mostly laughing too. Their are worse ways to spill some beans. Lessened learned. Always happy for the safety I feel in this thread.
@igneriss aaaaa those are so cute! Reminds me of Hayao Miyazaki's storyboards for (cancelled) Pippi Longstocking that he did himself.
I did more work on unnamed(?) girl.
Important question! Bottom right, there's a version where the eye is fully outlined. I can't decide whether I want that or not.
Don't know if I'll do anything with it, but sometimes it's fun to brainstorm new ideas. (Though uh...Iron Savior is Power Metal not Death Metal. There's a definite distinction between the genres. Power Metal focuses on anthemic choruses, big solos, and has clean singing vocals. While Death Metal is an entirely different beast with tons of subgenres under it, though they all feature vocals with growls and screams)
@nathanKmcwilliams Right on. I stand corrected.
@MerrowBros heck yeah! Does your beastie have a name?
Josh, devourer of souls, with the very manry chest!
@migxmeg yeah my "usual" default is to leave some eye "open" so that's more natural to me, but I was wondering if maybe I wanted something else? So far my gut reaction agrees with you.
I opened this file to "touch a couple things up". Then I accidentally finished it lol. (Today I learned you can clip layers to folders and aaa where has this been all my life?!)
The lumps on his back leg is my last-minute decision to actually draw his super high-tech leg brace that's keeping his knee together. I am very jelly because I too wish I had a very high-tech brace to keep my booboo together.
