This is a super spur of the moment post, but as I go through the rewrites, I felt compelled to sketch a few of the monster prostitutes that briefly appear in chapter two. Why? I think because I'm spiraling.

The title in the image does not say "Ai", but "AL". I just now noticed that it looks that way lol.

As I continue to update "The Worst Kinda Curse", I thought creating some concept art for Alphys' father, Al, would be fun. In the fic, he's described as big and imposing, but I have this habit of humanizing the monsters. So, I gave him two forms just to visually play around with different ideas. I like his color scheme as it reminds me of a rooster.

Would anyone care to see more sketches of characters from that story? I might make a few for "The Salt Circle" too.

Last page of the scene! We got one more scene to go.

Sorry I'm taking so long to get these posts out. I still have so much going on in my life that this comic is such a low priority for me at the moment. I still have plans of finishing what I started before the end of this year, so I'm not giving up! We still have about six months to go. Once we get through the rough draft, that's when the real trial begins.

Oh, how fun.

So I know these posts are supposed to have 5 in them, but I got so cheeky with my art last night and this morning, that I'm gonna be a bit impatient with this one. Typical, huh?

Thoughts on the narrator? Is he too annoying? I feel like he's annoying.

Post #12 - A Simple Silhouette Exercise

♫ - What I’m currently listening to.

✔ - Vote in the poll.

I want to start by saying that this exercise (found here) was easy enough to complete during the few down hours I had today, so it makes for a decent warm-up. We were to sketch out a few cityscape silhouettes using basic shapes and then detail the best one. I made only three sketches and picked the silhouette that I found fit the Underground aesthetic the most.

This exercise was fun!

It definitely helped to better shape the skeleton of a city in a quick, yet appealing, manner. Despite that, I feel like I could've done more today, but I'm at least patting myself on the back for getting a blog post out there (the bare minimum, I know). I had such little time to do much today. I hadn't yet researched the map of the Underground or really taken a moment to find noteworthy references. Hopefully, with a bit more time on my hands, we can start strong tomorrow by finishing the Clipstudio tutorial.

Post #20 - A Friend Indeed

♫ - What I’m currently listening to.

Last week something absolutely amazing happened; I got back in touch with my very good friend on Discord! Before then it’s been a year since we last spoke, so I was very much convinced that that would be it; our friendship cherished, but otherwise mesmerized in the past. I’m really happy we are talking again!

Above, and below, is artwork I drew for two (of many) UT roleplays we have written together. The one above has inspired the writing of The Worst Kinda Curse, even though the main character in the original roleplay was not Alphys. The swampy monster town in Louisiana is straight out of it though. I would share the details, but as I consider it, I realize these are stories we wrote in private and just for our own enjoyment.

The artwork for the above was an AU of the Underground being a religious dictatorship with human slaves. We created a whole new world together and piecing the canon characters into more dubious roles was something I enjoyed tremendously.

Fun times!

She has drawn a ton of gorgeous art as well, her skills are off the charts, but I feel as though it is hers to share if she so chooses to.

I’m grateful to have you as a friend @stickorstones. I hope we can continue to write stories together and create more fond memories!

Post #24 - Lugubriousity Rewrite

♫ - What I’m currently listening to.

First, I want to thank everyone for such warm reception for the last page of chapter one of FAWN. Seeing all the reblogs and likes just lit up my whole week.

Now onto the topic of this blog. As I was reading through Lugubriousity to prepare for the next chapter of the comic, I realized just how sloppy the story is. Yes, I know this very fact is the reason I started this project in the first place, but I feel so compelled to just clean things up, make it better. That’s what I’m currently doing. I will be releasing a PDF containing the first part of the story soon, before moving onto the second part, and lastly the third part sometime afterwards. I already wrote three new chapters for the beginning of part one, and I’m in the process of editing the rest to create a more comprehensive narrative.

The characters are going to have personalities much closer to canon, the setting of the Underground is more expanded and complex, and I will hopefully rid the fic of its many plot holes. Oh! And it’s no longer told in the Underfell universe, but a standalone one uniquely for Lugubriousity/FAWN. All previous tags still apply, so major content warning. I’m excited to get this out for readers to enjoy.

These 3 PDFs will be the new “canon” narrative that the comics will draw from.

That doesn’t mean I will be taking down the original, no not at all! It will stay up on Ao3 for all to read and enjoy, and in order for me to track my writing progress.

Now I have a question for you guys; should I upload the rewrite to Ao3, or only stick with the PDF copies that anyone can pass around and do with as they wish (beyond sell since I believe that is illegal for fanfiction)?
