IM DONE AAAAHHHH
reminder to read right to left, because i'm American, at least for this submission...

this is almost a conversation that happened, towards the end it didnt happen.


// change log

23 aug. i am trying a new strategy to get more major entries out! a draft is submitted, it's a pledge to improve upon it and then resubmit when i have the full thing.
will fill in the art later, and it won't be just the concept anymore :3

24 aug. half of the figures are drawn. backgrounds and additional subjects will be added later

27 aug. took a break and now i locked in due to tiredness. maybe it keeps me in the flow, unlike being awake with many thoughts distracting me :D figures done, backgrounds in progress. i like that i create a working journal like this, good pacing myself if everyone can also see it, rather than me giving up internally.

28 aug. backgrounds mostly done, after a bit of frustration lololol. i would next like to work on proper speech bubbles. i think it'd be a pain to pixel these too. fightin

30 aug. done! whew. had to do a LOT of corrections cuz i forgot to fill in the background underneath the bubble drafts layer... i got it done tho! this was a great way to pace myself, ignoring the -5 points every time i resubmitted. ah. well, enjoy~ thank you for bearing with me thru this time :D

This post is being made when they submitted a draft thumbnail -
This is a great example for people to learn thumbnailing. I wonder how many get hung up on final work and never worry about making multiple drafts before sending in their final work to anything.

i'd like to see this as a full story, it leaves much to be desired. enjoyed it nonetheless!

I'm not sure if I can articulate why but this reminds me of a comic I used to read as a little kid in the newspaper named Gasoline Alley. I also get the sense, because the characterization is really strong, that this could be one of many strips setting up a much longer story

I like these characters, they feel like they have so much history.

This comic reminds me of how, whenever one of my parents opens junk mail addressed to the other, they'll notify them by saying "I'm committing a felony!"
