At the start of this chapter I've started to work in page format!
I've made the previous chapters large enough that the images could be edited into page format in the future, but I was convinced by some very powerful gal pals that this would save me a lot of work in the long run. Plus it makes me really think about my dial...
I used this month's wallpaper as a chance to make something for MerMay! Quite the mood they got going on there ๐ฅฐ
I may have had inspiration from a certain show for the color palette (The diamonds and the glowy lights are a reference to it ๐). I also had way too much fun experimenting with Nola's scales! I hope you lo...
Besides sometimes adding an additional panel for pacing.. (like with the hand kisses how could I not add more to that?? haha)
Something I do end up leaving last tends to be the effects that go behind certain character moments. I was originally just going to throw a bunch of hearts at mel but that would have looked really b...
This is one of the less spoiler intense ideas that came to mind recently, but I thought I'd use it to call myself out for how disorganized I can get when I plan haha!
Don't get me wrong. The General outline is still very much the same from how I originally planned the story to go. However, there's a lot of scenes that ...
I realized it was MerMay and have to make and AU wallpaper of SailorCass and MermaidNola having a moment ๐โจ

Episode 2.2 was more dialogue driven, with not much changing in terms of scenery. So I thought I'd talk a little bit about this sequence! This was actually a last minute addition to the episode. I contemplated for a while whether it was too late or not to add it in, since I had this scene planned out already. However, when I ...

I'm sure Choklad will be fine~ heheheh. :3c
With this we move onto the next scene! We'll be meeting many new (and some familiar) faces soon! I was gushing over this moment of Nola and Cass for ages! Many more to come of course, but I take make any excuse to draw them being dorks together ๐
We get Mel and Nola for this month's wallpaper! I wanted to try a limited color pallet along with a sort of painterly look to it. I also really like the idea of Mel looking for places outside the castle to read her books. I hope it brings you chill and serene vibes! ๐๐

I would love to make a little segment, and place your names on the next episode thanking you guys for your support! If you'd like to have your name hidden, I very much want to respect your privacy, so please let me kno...
I very much struggled with the perspective angles and distance with the three establishing shots I drew haha. It's both very challenging but very fun trying to figure it out! Even if it's not 100% what I wanted, I know I can try and make it better the next time around! From the boat WIP you can see how I kind of block the sha...

For your patience during my unexpected hiatus, I've made a wallpaper for every reader to enjoy. It was really fun working on the colors for this! I hope it brings you warm and lovely feelings~
Sincerely, thank you for reading and supporting this story ๐
If you come from webtoon, you probably didn't realize Cass was animated!
You can see her Keyframes that I used in the second image. My original idea was to have a different reaction for whatever was happening in the episode. Thus we have the extra little dizzy Cass that was going be for Episode 4. I realized I needed t...
There were so many anatomy tweaks I had to do here. They deserved to look the best to my abilities for this kiss ;;
After the sketches you see here, I made separate layers for their bodies just to get the anatomy down more. I consulted a powerful GL webcomic master and she gave incredible feedback. I still get feeling ...
DEJA VU!
This is why using the right sound fx fonts are important ๐๐๐
One of the big challenges I've set for myself in making this comic is to try and get better at backgrounds, buildings and cityscapes. I'm very excited to see how my progress turns out as I keep making the comic!
There's already so much I wish I did differently for this panel, like the pose of Cass' horse has a nicer silhou...
I plan things in a single, relatively small file. This helps me see if I'm varying my panels enough. When I have my rough thumbnails down, that's when I look for a good place to slice it between episodes. I may add an extra panel or two if I feel like it's lacking in flow. (For Ep01 it was small Cass realizing the Dragon the ...
