Ahh, so I miscalculated! I thought the rest of this scene was six pages and it's actually eight. So.

It was great fun finally letting the lads meet up and spit bile at each other, though ...

Q&A Questions and drawing ideas!

The crowd spoke and looks like Monday will definitely be a mega-update. During the two weeks after I'll add some more concept art here and also do another, more proper Q&A. A few people suggested ...

Cavalry to the rescue! Although probably not, Toma's construct is outmatched and already has troublemaking ghosts in it.

Cutter doesn't know quite how to feel about Duane, if you can tell...

I have a profound weakness for villainous dialogue, especially when the villain is idealistic and overzealous. Especially when they've been curbing their desire to spill the beans for two months by fo...

Cutter is a very interesting character to me. I still can't talk about him too much because there's a lot bubbling beneath the surface of his leathery hide that has yet to come out, but one thing that...

I really like Dawn, the turbaned brothel manager. She's pretty understated but I feel like you can read a lot into her by her reaction to all this. There's a lot to be said for a minor character who s...

Audio Q&A 1

This is a bit sloppy but hey! Next time we'll try and do it live.

10_115

I like this one, it feels satisfyingly dynamic to me. Also Duane is super handsome!

I like how Sette's unabashedly covering her eyes here. Who wouldn't be?

It's tricky to keep up a frenetic pace and suggest background fighting. As Sette's memory is sparked about the lock...

I'll get that audio Q&A up this weekend or maybe Monday? Dog stuff messed up my schedule. Thanks to everyone who asked a question :)

Doodle

Had to take my poor old hound dog to the vet today. He's feeling better now.

The balance between Duane and Sette's mildly adorable antics and the horror show going on around them was hard to strike. I tried to keep this scene from going wrist-slashingly dismal by dropping in s...

In spite of the giant deadly pain monster thing and looming destruction and insanity, Duane's still pretty intent on everything he learned and experienced in the khert overnight. It amuses me that he ...

I have a lot of love for that first panel. Duane and Sette spent this whole chapter apart, each engaged in their own nighttime miseries. It was nice to at least have them in shouting distance of each ...

I enjoy extreme close-ups where I get to lovingly render Duane's gorgeous zombie face. It's especially fun when he's acting like kind of a dickbag. You know what it reminds me of though, when it goes ...

Ooooh, I remember this page taking a dog's age to do.  I really wanted Sette to look overwhelmed by all the begging ghosts, so there was no getting around drawing a crowd of them. 

Lady Ilganyag concepts

Though Lady Ilganyag is a very old character of mine, I almost never drew her before Unsounded and never really had more than a vague idea of her looks. Part of the reason for this was she largely exi...

One of my favourite pages this chapter. I liked getting to draw Sette doing things again after so long tied up in that chair. It was also a lot of fun to come up with all those grotesquely...

Textless pages are always a joy. I swear though, Sette has so little page time throughout most of this chapter that I forgot how to draw her a few times!

But it was nice to get away from ...

Request: Highres khert pages

Tumblr anon requested these pages at a higher res!

10_105

Always super tricky to compose pages where a tiny figure interacts with a giant. You don't want to lose a sense of the size of either, or a sense of the space they're in, and most importantly you want...

Duane's definitely seen that critter before, though in a slightly different, more gargantuan&n...
