As the 5th Hope, there is a lot riding on Fae’s shoulders that she has no clue about. Typically, Hopes are slowly introduced to Viosia by their predecessor and are fully capable of interacting with the world when it is their time to shine; however, that isn’t Fae’s position. Fae’s memories of Viosia have been wiped away by her predecessor in a vain attempt to protect Fae but from what is unknown. Unfortunately for Fae, she is now stuck in a world that she has no knowledge of and with no clue how to return to her home. Fae’s arrival in Viosia coincides with the death of her Aunt Shelley, the 4th Hope.
Because she is lost in a strange land, Fae has almost entirely and blindly followed Enya’s lead on what must be done despite the fact that Fae does not entirely trust those with whom she travels. However, as Fae grows more comfortable with her situation, she is taking more risks and slowly exposing her impulsive nature.
Fae may try but will she be successful? There’s only 5 more pages left in the chapter and I’m really excited as I feel like chapter 10 kicks off the more action filled part of Eternity Complex. Chapter 10: Before the Storm, is definitely the chapter I’ve been impatiently waiting to get to for some… Continue reading 20
Dwarven hair styles are not about fashion so much as conveying to other’s who you are and the degree of formality of a given situation. Bjorn is at his most formal. Enya also gets to show off her new hair and eye color now that she doesn’t have to hide her lack of facial hair… Continue reading 21
I just realized that I made an art mistake on the third panel – forgot the shadowy magic powers around the floating bowl. The mistake will get corrected once I gain access to a computer with photoshop. Best case scenario will be Monday afternoon. I miss my frequently dieing computer already. Edit: The correction is… Continue reading 22
In hindsight, “great chamber” should probably be capitalized (I’ll edit that once I can get to a computer). Dwarves put a lot of trust in their monarch and the Great Chamber is the Dwarven term for the royal palace/hallway/seat of power. Since most dwarves are able to manipulate rocks and metals to varying degrees (through… Continue reading 24
Three things I’m working hard at improving while working on this chapter are perspective, dynamic poses, and character body types. All start out a bit rough but I feel like I’m finally starting to better understand perspective (dynamic poses and body types show up a bit later). Not that this page really shows what I’ve… Continue reading 01
The best sorts of lies are sprinkled with the truth. They also work best when you’re not sure how much of what you’re saying is a lie and Fae’s admitted that “acting is easy” for her. Also, Bjorn wasn’t kidding when he said “dwarves don’t expect anything out of humans.” The first page of the… Continue reading 03
After being gone for a month my computer is now on its way home. It should be arriving home Tuesday. I really hope everything with my computer is as it was and that my computer stops breaking (crosses fingers).
The Dwarven Monarch is not taller than the average dwarf. The Monarch stands on a pedestal that has been draped in cloth to achieve a more imposing height when ever meeting with non-dwarves. My computer came back Tuesday. The video card was fully replaced and so I’m hoping that there will be no more future… Continue reading 05
