One thing that sucks to be an artist who gets paid to draw is that I don’t get enough time to draw certain comics. I had another multi parter planned that would have shown the lead up to Powers meeting Sera and her… obsession with her. But it was just too long and I had other things to draw.
I’m not an artist, but I do know artists. A friend of mine, Russell Chatham, he passed a while ago, would do these amazing 4 and 6 color lithographs, by hand. Every color by hand. One of his pieces could be 5 years in the making. He was celebrated internationally. He told me something once. 1/2
That an artist will never be truly successful if they are doing their art for money, as a job. He told me how he got started. And for years he worked labor jobs and restaurant work, to make ends meet. I asked him why, since he’s very talented, didn’t he do something with his art and make money. 2/2
Hopefully one day soon you'll find time to work on this idea and any others. Even if it's a little at a time. Thank you though for the comics you are able to put out :)
So, question.
I’m not able to at the current time.
But what would you say is a charge if someone wanted to pay you to work on your own comics?
And would that be something you’d be open to?
I'll be honest, I started following because of the very cute wholesome couples, but the LORE has gripped my attention.
I am far more interested in your world right now then the cuteness haha.
I hope you are able to someday get to it, I'll be impatiently waiting!
You know, i never noticed this when it first released (even then i was still new to the comics), but in the second page, Powers is shivering when Lili talks about her disobeying Hell's bog rule, it really shows she really is still traumatised after all this time despite her choice to worship God!
Well that was wholesome
Love Powers
I’m glad Lili didn’t take it to heart or well I’m sure it hurt but she’s doing her best to not let it bother her right now
Given Powers' state of mind when they lashed out, it makes total sense Lili wouldn't hold it against them! She's the best person to help Powers open up more! 💜🖤
There's a story you can find in the text-based browser game Fallen London (the setting that the games Sunless Sea and Sunless Skies are from) where you undertake a monster breeding program to create a weapon for the Anglican church.
The end result is a white snake named the Hound of Heaven.
Fallen London? I think the peak of its popularity was a while ago and I haven't touched it in years, but it's a lovely, bizarre little thing. So many little pieces of writing stuck in my brain.
I'll avoid talking too much more about it and let you experience it for yourself, but this is a game where the secret endgame is an incredibly difficult journey to self-annihilation in the footsteps of someone else that results in your character being permanently deleted.
Okay I feel very stupid cause for the longest time I thought Power's sweater had like wing-shaped cutouts on the chest which I thought was a bold design choice but looking at this now I realize. That is not the case.
