But how does she drink it?

So... judging by some of the initial filenames, it looks like you predrew some of the intro images. That seems like a good idea, since you can easily predict that the players will suggest certain things (look around, check inventory), and it allows for a quick initial update schedule.

>But how does she drink it?
Gas masks have a drinking tube for hydrating.

>>67361

I thought it was pretty much standard practice to have some assets/events/exits ready ahead of time. Seems like that would be a big time saver and cut down on the asspulls, anyway.

Also, I like where this is goin', and the art reminds me of a few folks I like.

Yes, I predraw my pieces in order to save time. I also try to scheduled my posting for 3-4 inks posted each day. I have certain internet connection problems through and that takes a little bit of my time away, so I may miss a day or may have to post fewer/more then expected images.

I also realize that I don't like the header image that I inked. Lacks a few details now that I think about it.

(PS: Owls are my post marks)

Stupid question, what color is our hero's outfit? And their Amazing Hair (TM)?

Ahem!

Anyways, to answer your question, the character's hair is close to black, through I don't shade it completely black. I may change that, since I noticed that it makes it hard to focus on the character's gas mask, it sort of blurs the whole face.

On the other hand, I haven't come up with a good color for the suit. I think it would fit if it was some sort of grayish green, the pants being close to grey.

>>67382

Honestly, at first I thought the hair was a hood and that it was a full HAZMAT getup. Black, though... Might make it hard to actually tell what's going on. I suggest keeping it that way for now but maybe add more little details to show it's hair. A curl here, a flyaway there, little stuff.

Oh hey you're totally doing the hair thing.

Yeah, that works a bit better.

FWIW, you might get more suggestions if you just go ahead and do the obvious things/things stated previously without waiting for input. This quest seems to have an above-average amount of "==>" moments where you seem to prompt for suggestions when we're just waiting for a chain of actions to complete. If there's no decisions to be made, you probably shouldn't prompt for suggestions.

>>67462
I dunno, I think I only saw a couple of times that the next action needed no input.

...really just once though. Waiting for 120 seconds. On the other hand that's a chance for us to make any last-minute actions or preparations for when the door opens.

Its not that I am waiting for input or suggestions, its that my schedule is kinda weird and that means that when I am inking the next image, its probably going to be a day before I am able to post it (I have school and stuff).

Trust me, I am working on this stuff.

>>67464
You could try either just waiting until you have all the images ready for your update, or put in a note that this is a partial update. I suggest the former.

I forgot to post this yesterday.

Saturdays and Sundays are my rest days. It's not that I am Jewish or anything, I just want to rest and ink at my own pace.

Expect an update in a few hours or tomorrow, depending on the time zones.

Concept Art Time

This is some stuff I prepared before I started the quest.

Obviously, the women on the right was the inspiration for me to put a gas mask on my character (gender is irrelevant)

The architecture on the left was supposed to be for another trial, but I had to change it a bit and now I am using it for another one.

>>67633

>those archways

>my dick

>>67633
DAT ALCOVE

>>67633
How long did you spend on the architecture? Did you draw most of it freehand? It looks beautiful! Like seriously, absolutely gorgeous! The only thing missing would be something to give it a sense of scale.(I honestly can't tell how big it is)

This is some freehand sketches I did in, like, ten minutes. Don't really think its that good to be honest.

Once I finish my update later this day, I will show some of my better stuff.

Good grief, now I know why your updates take so long.

And it's a good thing.

GREAT GOOGLEY-MOOGLY!

>>67891
Yeah, that's all kinds of impressive. A ton of detail and perspective.

I tried to make some art for the quest for the later statues.

This is what came out of it...

Wtf

>>67982
Fuck. Your art is BEAUTIFUL.

>>67982
It's very nice.

You are a fantastic artist.

I'm anxious to enter the cock-sucking crowd but fuck it I'm envious of your anatomy skills

and also how you show a lot of detail with very few strokes

if I could I would eat your soul to gain your powers

>>68623

Sometimes it's okay to kiss ass.

This is one of those times.

Whatever you do, please please please treat those hands lof yours like holy relics. If you can stay the onset of burning out, or wearing out, you have the capability to create images unparalleled in beauty.

Your words have touched me.

Here, have some concept art.

Also, excuse the wonky art in this update, I was feeling sick when I drew this, and frankly I still do.

So, quick question to you all: Do you have any suggestion or critique of my art or the quest in general?

In fact, are you dissatisfied with anything about it? I would love to hear about that. If there is anything I can fix, pleas tell me.

Also owls.

>>69206

The tradeoff between speed and art detail means it doesn't update too fast. Do you see this becoming a problem when action starts?

Anyway, I've seen comic books make it to print with much worse art than this. And that's not counting Rob Liefeld. I don't see any obvious problems yet. I'm just curious how you'll handle sequences where the tempo picks up, should you take it in that direction.

>>69206
The art is lovely, though the hatching you use for shading does mean it took me a long time to figure out that I was looking at hair and not a haz-mat hood.

There have been a few instances of mis-conjugated words in the text which I find a little distracting. But trust me, if that is the biggest complaint I can manage, you are in great shape.

I do find the scale of this place a bit daunting. I hope you are not planning to make us go through ALL of those doors.

I live

Sorry for the hiatus, I had to finish some of my education and I had exams for one month so I didn't feel like updating my quest.

Well, it begins again.
