Sometimes You Just Have To Render A Particularly Nice Panel In A Comic Where A Character Looks Especially

Sometimes You Just Have To Render A Particularly Nice Panel In A Comic Where A Character Looks Especially

Sometimes you just have to render a particularly nice panel in a comic where a character look’s especially pretty. There’s another one on the last page I want to render too but this one was a lot less difficult and didn’t have any perspective hubjub, so I did the one first and might do the other one if I’m feeling it.

Sometimes You Just Have To Render A Particularly Nice Panel In A Comic Where A Character Looks Especially

Panel I picked

panel 1: Arthur is standing against a black background. a text bubble spoken by Kayne, who is not in the panel, reads "I'm sure I don't need to tell you who they are, but know that they are smiling and laughing, happy even." panel 2: entirely text spoken by Kayne. it reads "kill him right here right now, don't say a word, and I will help you." 3rd panel: Kayne is speaking, looking off to the side somewhere as he does. "good luck, Arthur". panel 4: Kayne disappears, and the motion marks made to indicate that's look vaguely like an eye. panel 5: the black background fades into white as Arthur moves forward through the hallway, and music fills the air. he holds the dagger close to his side. panel 5: Arthur's alternate universe self, who will be referred to as Arthur 2 for convenience sake, has his back turned to the reader and is playing the keys of an upright Piano next to Faroe, who is tugging at his sleeve to get his attention. panel 6: Arthur 2 stops playing the piano and turns to see what Faroe wants. she points in the direction of the reader/Arthur 1. panel 7: it's a split panel which shows Arthur 2's eyes. Arthur 2's eye is wide and shocked, while arthur 1 is looking forward with unfocused, pained eyes which are tearing up. arthur 1 has a scar on the bridge of his nose while arthur 2 is unblemished and still knows comfort. panel 8: arthur 2 stands now, putting himself between Faroe and arthur 1, looking worried and unsure. "who are you? he asks "how did you get here?" panel 9: Arthur 1 stands, shrouded in darkness. he is angled so that the dagger is hidden, but it pokes out slightly. he is silent and doesn't answer, instead he seems to be hesitating and having second thoughts towards his task. panel 10: a close up of the dagger, the edges of the panel are more pointed to indicate alarm and action. panel 11: Arthur 1 bolts forward, face obscured by darkness. the shadow he leaves behind him is stark and thick. panel 12: the silhouette of Arthur 1 stabbing Arthur 2. 1's hand is on 2's shoulder while the other hand is pushing the dagger into his gut. 2 has a hand on Arthur as if he was about to try and push 1 away. Faroe stands behind 2. panel 13: Arthur 2's eyes become lifeless and dead.

I’m sorry guys. I have to make sasha James and Martin Blackwood Americans for the plot. I’m removing their British person privileges. (The entire country of Britain got wiped out in my worldbuilding. Woops lol)

The world has ended due to wars and magic, what words are you keeping, what words are you removing, and what words are you adding to the English language?

A Galahad character playlist (based mostly on me filling in the gaps of his lore and very little of the actual album.) here is a discription of each song in the context of the playlist

Sinking Ships: A father’s dying words to an infant Galahad as he wanders the rusted desert.

Wherever I May Roam: Galahad’s time with the traveling caravan. They were far from a merciful group, and when not interested in trade were prone to shoot and loot instead.

Nobody: Galahad meets The Hanged Man, who is on Ends Justify The Means, and falls just a little bit in love with it. This causes problems in the long run because Merlin is a manipulative ass on EJM, especially with such a big end goal. He convinces Galahad to leave the caravan and work for sheriff stone as a blacksmith, knowing that in several years Sherrie stone will get overthrown. May add a song if I can find one that fits to split this one’s meaning more.

Cowboys From Hell: the Pendragons roll into town and kill sherif stone. Galahad survives thanks to a warning from Merlin.

Persian Enclave: and so Camelot becomes a home in a wasteland.

Never Love An Anchor: Galahad loves Merlin, but feels that since Merlin is a religious figure to him and the people in his church, it’s something he can never have, and is wrong for loving.

The Diving Bell: Merlin tells Galahad to sit on the siege seat, and Galahad does it due to faith and love and misplaced trust.

Hellfire: do I even need to explain this one? It’s exactly what’s on the label.

Dark In Here: the trip to the lower levels of the station to get the GRAIL

All The Dying: the deaths in the group take their toll

Suicide Solution: Galahad dies firing squad style to a bunch of turrets.

I Ain’t Done: Ghostlahad haunts the aurora

Brass Goggles: Galahad gets necromanced by raphaella

Glacier House: galahad is finically forced to process his emotions and he’s very pissed at the fact Brian was manipulating him and it didn’t even save his world.
