Post #25 - Lizard Daddy

hi! just wondering, when will the next chapter of immature interest come out?

Very good question since I’ve been a very neglectful author. 😅 I plan on working on the rough draft for the next chapter tomorrow. If my writers block doesn’t kick me in the gut, we just might have the next chapter by this weekend.

♫ - More music because why the hell not.

I'm totally overposting today, but I found this! And omg! I really like the art style I was going for with it. I think that's Edge (left) and Stretch (right).

Anyway, I need to get out of that folder, because I found a "manga" I was working on (what the fuck!!!!) as well as like art from an old Instagram account from my first year of college that I can't even remember if I deleted or not. But man if that art isn't edgyyyy.

oh yeah, baby...wasn't I just cringe, but I'm loving it. I'm here for it.

I might need to make a second blog to dump all this art onto. So maybe this will be the last un-fanfic related thing on this account? Idk man. That'll take work and there isn't like a rule against shitting up my own feed with art that has fuck all to do with Fawn, right? Right?!?! What are rules anyway?

ETA: I also found flipping porn I drew of Sans getting—okay! So anyway that probably won’t see the light of day.

Okay, so another update. Yay! This one is pretty...heavy. I kinda wanted to keep the artwork vague, but do you think the abuse is being clearly portrayed here?

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.

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)?

Post #26 - Happy Halloween!

♫ - What I’m currently listening to.

In this artwork we have future Frisk in different clown costumes—or maybe it's the attire of the cult, but honestly, what's the difference? Badum tss!

And we have reached the end of October! It has been an eventful month for writing. I managed to write over 30k words between 2 fics and 8 chapters! Unfortunately, most of the art goals haven't been met. I will make up for that though!

Soon I will be releasing a larger post explaining the future of FAWN and any related stories, but for now, I'm going to give my brain (and creative fingers) a bit of a break.

Post #30 - A Happy Mother’s Day w/ Character Sheets

♫ - What I’m currently listening to.

Another year and another moment to celebrate the most important person in some of our lives; our dearest mommas. No new Frisk and Toriel post this year, but I wanted to cross post the character sheets I uploaded to the Discord. There are still five more sheets I need to get through, but we’ll save that for Father’s Day.

Happy Mother’s Day!

Post #11 - A Step Towards Background Design

♫ - What I’m currently listening to.

✔ - Vote in the poll.

After a much-needed break, I am happy to return and try to crack down on one important element of comic creation; backgrounds. Being a lazy artist, (everything must be created within a short time frame, or oops, there goes my attention span) sitting down to render a well-thought-out scene is the bane of my existence. At least with writing, it is easier to say what I envision. With visual art, there requires a bit more skill and time to bring an idea to life. So naturally, I am no expert at setting a compelling scene, but I plan to take the next 7 days to change that.

We're heading to art school at YouTube University. We'll have a lot to learn. Everything from the composition, to the perspective, to the layout of a background. I will try to pick up the basics, and hopefully improve as the comic gradually progresses. By the time the last page is drawn, and before the project comes to an end, I hope to have a product that is alluring to gaze upon.

I hope to have something that invokes a strong emotion within the viewer.

The images in this post are the three base categories of study; interior, exterior, and wider landscape/cityscape shots.

I wanted to track my progress, as well as see how much I currently know, (spoiler alert, not much) so the above was drawn without references. They are the barebone sketches that currently plague my portfolio. Something quick, something easy. I can't say for sure that this will change all that drastically, but my main goal is to find the happy medium between my lazy art and a compelling scene to stare at.

I will be releasing a post sometime next week that will detail the aesthetic direction I want to take the world. There's going to be a little more thought put into the details to create something that fits with the themes of the fanfic while still keeping true to the Undertale elements. There will be a mood board accompanying the post, (with a few images from my trip) so you'll get a bit more insight into exactly what I mean.

One last thing to touch on, I recently re-read a comment on The Salt Circle regarding the look of the Frisks/Charas, and though this story has nothing to do with that one, it did leave me thinking about the designs of the characters. The poll is still active, and currently, we have two options that are neck and neck; starting from scratch with a brand new AU, or going with Swapfell Gold. I think I will leave the poll up until my big post next week to see which one will win, but I am liking the idea of something new and of our own. Something made just for Fawn. Of course, as a project, I want to share and build along with readers. Therefore, the majority rules, but I suppose we'll have to see which answer wins before really cementing any ideas.

In the meantime; I will be starting the first day of background building tomorrow. We'll start things off easy by referencing the official map of the Underground as well as Clipstudio's guide on How to draw iconic cityscapes.
