Holy crap! It’s already been nearly 2 months!! I gotta post something!!! O_o

This page feels like it’s been done for more than a month. I finished the sketch and even a lot of the inking weeks ago, but I just didn’t get around to finishing it off. The bottom left panel gave me considerable trouble too…

I’m not 100% satisfied with how that panel came out, but I promise you it used to look much, much worse. Working with a frustrating perspective and complicated movement was a real pain. I’m still (sadly) trying to nail down how I want the magic to look visually and my limitations as an amateur artist have also been a factor.

On an unrelated note: I got new pencils! I’ve literally used the same small box of pencils since page 1 (it’s kinda sad seeing them go…). I still have my old ones…somewhere…but they’re getting pretty small now (and beat up). I mostly decided to use my new ones for this page since I couldn’t find the old ones. Also this new pack of pencils came with a 4H (they go higher than 2H?!), an F (what the heck is that?! “Fine”???), and an 8B (I hardly used my 6B!).

Also if you’ve forgotten how bad I am with action sequences, don’t worry you’re about to get a quick refresher… -.-
