Flashing Lights Warning, But I Figured I’d Show A Timelapse Of How I First Made Pages, Using My First
Flashing Lights warning, but I figured I’d show a timelapse of how I first made pages, using my first page. With Procreate, though, you have to manage a sometimes strict layer limit, so I now have a more efficient process I’ll show in another post

Transcript below the cut:
Brudil falls down onto her stomach (with "WHAM!" SFX). Brudil: ACK! Pleht reels back, clutching his shirt. Pleht: What..? Who…? He spies the axe dropped by Brudil. His anxiety spikes as he imagines several monsters that Brudil could be: Mockman: Brudil's head and eyes roll back, and she leans enough for her belly to reveal a gaping maw. Puppet: A marionette Brudil stiffly raises her axe, looking with a lifeless expression. Undead: Brudil shows as a rotting zombie, grinning as she brandishes the axe. All these thoughts hang over Pleht as he sweats nervously.
Morning reblog!

Pleht opens the door to reveal Brudil, who was just reaching forward for the doorknob herself. She falls forward, and both she and Pleht react with shock. Pleht and Brudil: WHA-?!

Pleht throws the metal ball into the foreground, the ladybug excitedly turning to chase it. Pleht: GO FETCH! Ladybug: skree! Brudil punts the Bandaged Slugfolk into the other Slugfolk (with "PUNT!" SFX), sending both through the open doorway. Brudil: GET OUTTA HERE! Pleht (wiping brow): Whew! Brudil (standing proudly): Well, that takes care of that! Pleht picks up the dropped flint, while Brudil picks her bucket helmet up. Pleht prepares to go through the dark doorway, trying to get his magic flame back up (with "flick" SFX) Brudil puts her helmet back on and turns her attention to the thorny plants once more. Loud banging can be heard from the other door she missed (with "RATTLE" and "BANG!" SFX) Pleht and Brudil: Alright, where was I…?
Meet Brudil Brinn!
She/Her | 25 | Gnome
Brudil has lived in the bustling city of Everteeter for as long as she can remember, having been raised by her adoptive orc parents. Since she was a young girl, she was enthralled by stories of heroes and adventurers, both real and invented, and has wished to be a "gosh" herself. She carries her confidence everywhere she goes, from social situations to attempts to protect someone from monsters.
See her get into some good scraps at:
In this page, Pleht gets grappled.

Transcript below the cut:
Brudil is kneeling, picking her bucket back up. Brudil: I need a real helmet… "WHIMPER" SFX comes from her left. Brudil: Hello? Is someone there? Pleht gasps (with "GASP!" SFX) and slaps a hand over his mouth. Brudil peeks around the door and sees him. Brudil: Hey, are you all right? Pleht: YEEP! Brudil: It's okay, I'm not gonna hurt you. In fact… Brudil grabs Pleht, striking a heroic pose and tearing up. Brudil: …I'll make sure you get out with me unscathed, new friend! Pleht: YACK! Pleht (thinking): THE MONSTER'S GOT ME I'M GOING TO DIE OH PAUBB SAVE ME I KNEW THIS WAS A BAD IDEA I HOPE AT LEAST I'M GOOD EATING BECAUSE I CAN'T GET OUT OF THIS DEATHGRIP I DON'T EVEN KNOW WHAT KIND OF SPELL COULD SET ME FREE I JUST… NEED… TO TRY… SOMETHING! Pleht reaches into his coat, rummaging for anything to aid him.
In this page, Pleht finds himself between a bug and a dark place.

Pleht has entered the dark corridor. Aggravated, he looks as he keeps failing to conjure more flame (with "flick" SFX). Soon, he puts the flint and steel ring back in his coat. Pleht: Ugh, I'll have to figure this out later. At least I can sort of see the door… He peers forward and sees a door. From the other side come strange noises (with "CHOP!" and "THWACK!" SFX). Pleht: "W-wait, what are those thumping noises?!" Ladybug (from beyond the doorway Pleht came through): chtree? Pleht: Yeep! Pleht moves forward towards the door ahead, hand anticipating a doorknob. Pleht: Then again… He freezes; his outstretched hand has hit the wood (with "thump" SFX). He sheepishly reaches up to the doorknob. Pleht: Heh, r-right, human door.

Transcript under the cut:
Brudil, still in the overgrown room, regards some thorny plants that block a door ahead. Brudil: Okay, then… Should've expected some obstacles, I guess… was kinda itching for more than plants, though. Meanwhile, from behind another door, some Slugfolk lie in wait. Slugfolk: Shhh… not yet. Brudil starts to remove and cut the thorny plants with her shovel ("CRACK" and "CRUNCH" SFX show as she cuts into one of them). Brudil: Corpus must've had a heckuva garden. Behind her, the two Slugfolk that watched her are preparing to throw an old, rusted battle axe. They throw it in tandem, hitting Brudil square in the back (with "THOK" SFX). Brudil: YOW! She looks back, still frazzled, but the washboard has protected her; the axe is now embedded in it. She turns around to face the Slugfolk. Brudil: Alright, who did that?
And here’s a timelapse of my earliest version of my current process, showcased with my fifth page! Again, potential flashing lights warning.
Currently, it’s a little different, but the outline goes like this:
1. Make rough.
2. Solidify panel layout.
3. Solidify dialogue.
3. Make rough sketches.
4. Make speech bubbles.
5. Make lineart, with separate layer of the background lines covering the lines on the base.
6. Colors
7. Shading
8. Other effects.
It’s much easier to manage layers than when I started, and it encourages me to work more quickly to boot!
…later down the line, I mean. I forgot this page was a toughie for me.
Late morning reblog!
In this page, tempers keep running.

The comic jumps between Pleht and Brudil's situations. Pleht and Slugfolk: O-oh, sorry… Pleht turned to see the ladybug, who shields its eyes from Pleht's magic flame. Ladybug: SKREE! Pleht: Didn't mean to blind you. Slugfolk (pointing at the Bandaged Slugfolk): It was his idea. Pleht reaches into his coat again, dropping his flint with the other hand and extinguishing the flame. Ladybug: mrrrgh… Pleht: Hey, c-calm down, boy… Brudil is understandably angry at the two Slufgolk. Bandage Slugfolk glares at the other. Brudil: Seriously, what's your problem? Bangaged Slugfolk: Really? Slugfolk: Heh, sorry. I panicked. Pleht pulls out a ladle, but it drops to the floor (with "CLANG!" SFX). Ladybug: chttr? Pleht: Here, look at this floating or- oops! Brudil gets tackled by Bandaged Slugfolk (with "BAM!" SFX), hard enough for her bucket helmet to go flying. Brudil: I mean, if you're gonna ambush me-- OOF! Pleht kneels down to pick the ladle up as the annoyed ladybug watches, while Brudil pushes against Bandaged Slugfolk, her hand reaching back for the axe. Pleht and Brudil both groan. Ladybug: hiss…
