I am going to have another sketch day bonus update this weekend. Although it won’t be a League of Legends sketch this time. In the comments of the last comic an interesting conversation about the comic’s art style popped up,[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
Almost all of the characters in the comic have a little something from myself. I am starting to see some of my own weaknesses in Heather.
Selkie can screech, but she generally resists the urge. Heather knows about it but it still freaks her out. – – – – – Anyone who is in or near the Springfield Illinois area, I wanna invite you to attend[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
Selkie's ability to screech is something I was originally going to reveal in a more comedic-context in a between-arcs short one day, but I like it here.
I’m pretty bad about remembering to link back to old strips for reference, but I think for this one it helps to remind everyone how that scene went down.
In my original draft of the Shirt Theft arc, Selkie didn't go home early and she and Heather had (most) of this conversation while waiting at the pick-up area for their respective parents.
While I wouldn’t expect someone Heather’s age to do this, I’ve seen soccer players take hits to the sternum with full-force close-range kicks, catch their breath, then jump right back in the game like they didn’t just get slammed with[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
I believe this is the most panels yet crammed into a Selkie comic. Just had... a lot of stuff I wanted to include.
Third in what may become a series of Sketch Days featuring Selkie cast members dressed as League of Legends champions. This is Keisha dressed as Ezreal. Another one next week. 🙂
I knew I wanted to do Keisha for the next LoL sketch, but wasn't sure which champion fit her. Then it hit me that with the way she likes climbing trees and learning about animals, she suggests an inquisitive personality that felt like a good fit with Ezreal, who is an archeologist and explorer character.
Heather is usually on the attacking end of Conquer the Castle, so Selkie may have a fair shot.
In the first draft of this sequence, Heather and Selkie were playing a co-op video game together. I changed it to an outdoor activity because it felt like I was forcing my own interests on Heather and Selkie. Heather doesn't strike me as the kind of kid who likes video games much.
And here we go. Like the Selkiedinger sketch before it (below the comic), here is a second sketch in the Selkie/League of Legends crossover theme: Amanda dressed as Annie. I changed Tibbers to a rabbit because rabbits feel more Amanda-y[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
Annie's title in League of Legends is The Dark Child. You see where I'm going with this.
Just a heads up, I am doing another Sketch Day Saturday this week. When it rains it pours, eh? This one is League of Legends themed. A while back I sketched Selkie as Heimerdinger, this next one is a different[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
Heather's happy face in the central panel was the first thing I inked, before I even set up the panel borders. <3
I wanna thank everyone for offering me their opinions on the issue of re-drawing old strips last time. I have a few angles I am considering for Selkie merch, books being one of them, after I finish some current projects.[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
Barb is displaying a tendency to over-react that... that just makes me chuckle. XD
