Bonus Panels 102-107
🕑 Added 2024-07-10 23:07:09 +0000 UTCAnother batch of bonus panels again! I'm really digging this new format I got goin for them! As usual, I'll include a little bit of insight on the BTS of each of the comic below!
102 - Critic
Fun fact, this isn't actually the 102nd comic, but it's the 102nd comic posted on Webtoons, so I just use that system! As I mentioned before, I wanted to do a series of comics about Duncan and Kip becoming friends before going into the series with Kip and Mason, just to round out their characters a bit more (and because everyone in the comic sort of revolves around Eddie). I really like this one, cause it really is the epitome of their entire dynamic of Kip and Duncan being pretty similar, but Kip is generally a lot more nervous and anxious. Also Kip's legs are drawn too long.
103 - Roommates
This was a pretty quick comic, it was a lot of reusing colors and stuff. I think Kip is overalls is absurdly cute, I am 100% putting them in overalls more often. I also wanted to show a little bit of Kip's mindset with asking Mason out. I wanted to hint at the mindset of like "I can't ask them out because I'd be the problem" and leave that door open to explore in future stuff. Mainly though, I just think this comic is kinda cute and fun DKSLFJSD
104 - Appreciation
Originally, this comic was going to have Kip at the end be like "BUT NOT IN LIKE A FLIRTY WAY LIKE I LIKE YOU BUT NOT IN LIKE THAT WAY BUT NOT BECAUSE-" and just kind of blabber on, while Duncan would think to himself, "Oh, they're just like this with everyone." I think it's funnier than what the comic ended up being, but it was too similar to another comic, so I went with the current version. Also, I really wanted to push the color and design WAY out of my comfort zone (even though a lot of it gets blocked anyways) and I'm super happy with how it came out! I think this was also the first time I had a character overlap a speech bubble!
105 - Mouthful
This was another Kip lore drop disguised as a regular comic. Because most of Kip's comics are just them freaking out over Mason, I had to really squeeze in a few more comics of them being an anxious little bean before the new comic arc starts! I fiddled with this palette for so long, there's like 6 different versions or something. I'm pretty happy with how it turned out, though! I also used a funky little pattern for the impact bg in panel 2 I'm really happy with!
106 - Reflect
I have to keep coming up with more abstract names for comics so that I don't accidentally reuse a name. Both "pride" and "binder" were already taken, so "reflect" it is! Let's just hope I don't make a comic about mirrors down the line. This was another comic I sort of struggled with the palette. I'm really uncomfortable working with magenta and purple, so working in Eddie's VIBRANT bisexual shirt was a bit of a journey for me. There's some really cute drawings in here, I think this is around when I really started trying to solidify their body types a little bit more, so Eddie really looks like a twink. Also, his hand overlaps the speech bubble in panel 2 and I think that's really cute.
107 - Misuse
I love this palette I did. I've been trying to force myself to use very saturated colors, but I wanted to fall back to my roots and do something a bit more muted, but still colorful. I think it also reflects the comic a bit too, since previous pride comics have been really bright and vibrant, but I think as the comic has aged and matured a little bit, the softer palette is a nice reflection of that. I very nearly scrapped this comic many times, since the dialogue is a little sarcastic and I really did not feel like having a bunch of people on the internet come after me (they did), but I thought it was really funny so I made it anyways. I think it came out really pretty and really nice, so I'm really happy with it! (Also, the flowers on the arch behind them are rainbow!)
If you've read all of my blabbering, thank you so much for reading and supporting me! I tend to ramble a bit, but I hope you found it at least a little interesting! The Kip and Mason arc, dubbed Puppy Love should be coming either this week or next, so stay tuned for that!! Thanks all! <3
