The fun has just begun, Myri.
Ugh I killed my sketch buffer again, been busy. A new color page will be made soon, as well, though the update might be delayed a bit because of Halloween, we'll see.
Also, for people in the higher tiers (10$+), the second prize concept will go on, I will edit the various tiers with the new rewards, and A second prize winner will be picked in the b...

Start eating candy already, I've been stuffing my face since the stores installed their decorations on October 1rst!
Okay, kitty Aquei IS cute. Hope you like her too!
Also, I have enabled the new 600$ milestone, and you guys already beaten it, you are all awesome. I will edit the new pledge rewards soon, and might pop a few more sketches, we'll see the next days will be super b...
2015-10-27 01:31:03 +0000 UTC View PostIn an effort to always bring my patrons more bangs for their bucks, and because the new milestone is a long way. I had been thinking about a new milestone between the current one and the double update one, but it had to be a milestone that wouldn't give me more work than simply double updating would. In the end I came up with this: Bonus page progression bar!
Now that I've done a...

I wasn't super focused, so if you see anything wrong, tell me and I'll edit it in a few days when I'll do my usual revision.

The final version will be available to all, but here's the sketch, I hope you like it! I can't do more elaborated in the time I have left before halloween, but I think it's cute!
Creepy spiders and eldritch horror, what more can you ask for Halloween?
Let's hope I can finish that one in time for october 31!
Two draigjibies having an intimate moment. Idea from Evevos. Evevos if you want any change or modification, just say so :)
To those who don't know, those are the ancestors of the fairies. They were there before the fairies, the F-jibies, the nihallak, before everything. They were 10 feet tall, powerful and intelligent beings. They were destroyed during the war against the nihallaks and ...

Edit: Some lighting corrections.
It was actually commissioned by Grip, but because it's FvT related, I'm uploading it here as well! You can try and guess all the fairies, but some of them haven't been introduced into the comic yet, so good luck lol.

What I didn't had room to mention as well, is that the N-V field is even more economical because when it successfully absorb magic energy, it makes the creation of the next impulse even cheaper.

Alright so far those backgrounds are not as bad as I thought, technically if I woke up early one day and was very determined I could wrap a full page in one sitting. Not th...
2015-10-10 04:43:00 +0000 UTC View PostHalloween is due for this month, and I want to do some stuff for it!
For the 5$+tier, I will draw a scary Dark Forest entry, featuring a more scary and deadly monster than the usual stuff, the kind of horror you find only in the red zone (so far we've only wandered around the green zone) So it will be fitting halloween, and still be canon to the story :)
BUT
I also wanted to ...

Sketch depicting an other Era entirely! From Evevos' idea. A couple of the fairies' Gods/Ancestors, the DraigJibies, having a good time. I hope you like it Evevos! if you want any changes or modifications, just comment or message me. Otherwise, I'll get working on making this into full color. A question, tho, Evevos. You get to decide since it's your picture: Will you want the final version availa...

Despite their shape, Nihallaks are not very good at moving in water.
Also, adjusted the light levels a bit on page 65 and corrected a typo. Stupid third person pronoun conjugation that I always forget to do.
Hello all!
First point: Fairies vs tentacles will be 1 year Old on October 8th! I really wanted to make an artwork for it, something original and different, not just a sexy pinup or a super crazy picture that would have taken me 2 months to finish, and here's the idea I got, a pixel "tableau" summarizing the first year, and the idea behind it is that I will do another one on year 2 t...

Just a quick sketch here, but I wanted your opinion on it. It could be used for the website's header, and advertising banners, I made it in a way it can be cropped in height or width without too much issues. but what to do you think? Is it a good idea for a "casual" banner? Is the sideway "fairies" annoying or hard to read? Any suggestions?

Fuuuulll colooooor! Alright it's 2 Am here so I hope I didn't mess anything, feel free to give me your opinion or point out mistakes. I want to say to those who save these pict...

Last bit of sketch design for a bit, just regular, non monstrous animals, the kind of creature you can find wandering around the land, or around towns, or being kept as house pets. There are more than that, but those are a few archetypes, Just like in the real world you have the archetype bird, a beaked, flying, feathery thing, which is then split in ten of thousands subspecies.
I coul...

With this we're back at our regular once a week update. I'll probably need the time to complete the pages in fullcolor anyway. This one was easy, but those where you can see a wh...

And this is where we realize that the fairies are not primitive tribes living in wood huts. Of course if an alien ship landed on one of our nudist beach, they would think we are quite primitive as well. The actual technological level of the fairies is, on average, medieval, but there are some early steampunk/renaissance-level technology in the bigger population centers like Prosperity, while other...

And here we are, back to our escapees! It might come to a shock to some that all that happened so far is all on the same day, especially since the comic has been going for nearly a year now, but it is. It won't always be like that, though, but I feel the firsts few days of this war are the most important, as we get to know each side on a personal level.
Evelynn enter the scene!
Funny enough I already have the next 3 pages' texts written, there's just no art in it yet. But that gives me enough material to extrapolate the length of the chapter, and it's gonna be much longer than 30 pages. Probably double that or more! I could split it in smaller chapters, but then the chapter 2 cover isn't accurate anymore. What do you think I should do? An e...

Not the most interesting or sexy post, but here is the sketched map of Seatown, the place where most of chapter 2 and 3 will happen, along with a bunch of building designs.
It is one of the youngest town, and yet is 1200 years old. Fairies, not aging and therefore not possessing a biological clock, don't reproduce as much as other species and therefore their population expansion is...

Full color version of Thomas' Idea, recruiting drive at the Oviworm shop! (Oviworms are a creature on the fairy island, so that picture is semi-canon)
I also used my new shading and lineart technique for this picture, I hope you like!

Thank you ladies and gentlemen, thank you very much. This happened much sooner than I though, I mean in general. After we've hit flat colors I though full color wouldn't be a thing before early 2016, and bam there it is! Now I want to say, if something happen in the next months and we go back below the milestone, I -won't- switch back to flat colors, unless it get really low, like under 400$. The ...

Still need to prepare more material for chapter 2, but we can at least get started with the cover! Old new faces! new new faces!! 297 look like a weird puppy dog!!! Exclamation marks!!!!
Yeah chapter 2 will cover a lot of different things, and I might have to either ditch that idea of doing only 30 pages per chapter, or break that chapter into more chapters. we'll see!
