So in the next post I'm gonna start posting pictures of character refs.
Anyways I've been thinking a lot about the witch comic and some things I think I may finalize - Modern times? Ugh I still can't think of time setting bc what I have in mind is so far from proper past times but also so different from modern times?? Succulent/Witch/Pastel aesthetic Will be a fully colored comic Every panel is something aesthetically pleasing Won't be big on magic. Will be realistic magic (lmao) we do now. Plot??? Obv won't give everything away, but it'll have to do with "Glitch in the Matrix" things people experience here. It just happens to happen a lot to this trio and they don't know why. This comic will be extremely text light. It's super vague and the readers have to figure everything out since it's more visual/drawing based rather than story/text based. Pay attention to details. Witch is named Lia and her brother is named Miles (They're Italian) Lia's best friend's named Jasper (He's Asian). They've known each other since they were in 3rd grade. - Lia's 23 and graduated college already. She works as a botanist assistant in a floral shop. Her boss is more of a friend than a boss. Outside of work, she has a freelance business in fish breeding/selling. - Miles is 31 and works as a astronomy professor. He loves his job so much. He loves ranting about space and reading about space from his students' homework. He's studying that weird black rip he sees in the sky?? Like, a black hole that's too close for comfort? - They live together in the house their parents left them. They don't mind each other's company and actually get along very well. Jasper also lives with them. - Jasper gets along with both of em, just more on Lia's side. He's a high school drop out and lived with them ever since he got kicked out of the house by his mom. His boyfriend wants to meet his dad but Jasper wants to meet him too. - Miles n Lia's parents have a high status with the people of the town. Their mom was the daughter of the town leader. Their dad was a big influence in their town. As in, he isn't the leader, but people would listen and trust him more than the actual leader. He advocates for the people and makes their leader give them what they want by lowkey starting riots at his house until he decrees that more funds would go to fixing water pipes or something. He doesn't hold a high position in their government or anything, he works regular jobs like everyone else, he's just liked by the town. He and the leader don't get along. - Miles carries what his dad left. Everyone in town loves and trusts him to talk to the leader to give them what they want and he always comes through ooo. - Lia is always mad that people just refer to her as "Miles' little sister" instead of her name because everyone knows who she is but no one knows who she is. - Jasper has to hang out with Lia and Mark secretly because he's an infamous thief in the town. If anyone knew they were friends, their statuses would lower a lot and a bunch of questions would be asked. - Trio is literally "Missing Dads Club" - Miles was 19 and in college when their dad went missing. Miles had to take 11 year old Lia to his college to take care of her while finishing her studies. Later on, they forget what they used to do with their dad. Everyone remembers what he did, but Miles and Lia have no memory of them bonding w their dad or what he did with them in general. They have a lot of history books, but they don't know where they came from because neither of them care for history. Who wrote those weird journals?? Who's clothes are these??? Why is there an empty space in the family portrait next to mom???? - Lia's witchcraft thing going on The answers are in the plants. Am I really gonna do this.
Am I really gonna make another comic. Do I wanna do this to myself. Yes. I do. Do I know what I'm doing? Lmao no. I don't have a plot or anything. I just wanna make a comic outside of the storyline of my three comics. I still wanna continue with the continuous aesthetic theme in my comics? Like,,,idk, maybe witch aesthetic. All those plants and things in jars and hex bags and crystals. Coffee and candles with a grimoire in the middle. Got some succulents around the desk. A single 5 gallon tank at the side, too. Wink. Living in the woods. Got those little mushrooms growing around. Animal friends n that one bunny from the moon. This has nothing to do with the plot, lmao. I'm just listing aesthetics for what to draw in the comic. Not sure whether to have it in the present time or not. I'm lowkey reviving my old game plot n story from the genius project I dropped when I wanted to make a fish dating game. That sounded pathetic lmaoo Anyways. I guess I'll build off that since I'm starting from scratch. Maybe I'll make it more personal?? Like, have some components of my life portrayed in the comic n have characters in there that I know IRL. Kinda so I have more of a motivation to do it and when writing what's supposed to be realistic scenes, it'll be way more realistic because I had first hand experience with it..? Some things i just came up with while writing this and are most likely indefinite: - Witch's dad is the Beast of the Woods people in the nearby village have stories of. He was originally human. Mom is dead. - This is set in medieval Italy. No definite said time or place. Real places are used (they're in Sardinia) , but where they live is never said. - Witch will probably have some sort of animal companion or a humanoid/creature sidekick - The witch practically lives in the woods. She lives with her older brother, but she visits the witch in the woods so often to learn how to be a water witch that she's barely home anymore. - The witch's girlfriend is more of a logical and scientific person rather than one to believe in magic, but they still respect each other. - Witch got a real close guy friend she knew since she was 6 (They're both 23 rn) and everyone always thinks they're dating but both of them are gay. - Guy friend is from the future and is kinda stuck in medieval Italy. He came back to write a good history report on supernatural things in medieval times, but he ended up never wanting to leave. He taught the witch n her friends humor way ahead of their time. - Because of him, historians are wondering why and how they learned dabbing in early 1300s Italy. - Guy friend ends up dating a prince??? - Mom died giving birth to the witch. Dad disappeared when the older bro was 19 and the witch was 10. Bro told witch he died of a sickness. - Guess who'll die - Bro is a highkey womanizer and is always confident with an ego. He brings like, 12 different women to bed in a week. Witch sister laughs at it but it also mad because he flirts with all her older lady friends and he's the reason why she barely has any female friends anymore. - But when he meets this one cute guy he suddenly loses all confidence and melts n becomes a sentient noodle. I'll type more later lmaoo bye Nother update?? Update.
So...nothing much to update on actually. Just trying to be consistent lel. I finished all sticker packs, but I probably already said that in the last post. I'll be printing them sometime this month to get ready for the Oh, update. I think I missed updating last week n I'm trying to stay consistent and active uploading blogs.
Anyways, I haven't been doing too much. Except that I finished the blushing animal pack! Things in the pack (only 1 of the animals listed each in the packs): - Whale - Bird - Corgi - Dumbo octopus - Seal - Sea bunny - Bunny - Pearlscale goldfish All of them are ridiculously circular. But they're ready for printing finally! Next pack I'll be working on is either the freshwater fish pack OR the Filthy Franku Gangu pack. I'm always working on the zines in between constantly, though. I'm actually jumping between my Floral and Bones zine and getting little by little done for both. Kinda frustrating since it feels like I'm getting nothing done since progress for both is so slow. Oh well, at least I have more than one started. School is highkey stressing me out and I haaate iiit please let me draw and have a good time for once?? It's holding me back so bad?? ALSO! Gabby, a real MVP, got ANOTHER table for Sakura Festival in December in Westmoor to sell merch. What a blessing. An update on the Filthy Franku Gangu pack, I only have 2 more stickers to color before it's ready for printing. I think the stickers are a bit small, though? Smaller compared to my other stickers, at least. Filthy Frank Pack: - Lemon Guy - Pink Guy - Salamander Man - Rice fields Frank - Chin Chin - Feminist Frank (?) - Safari Man - Joji Only things left is coloring Joji and Frank. Afterwards I have the third sticker pack done aaa By third, I mean the cuttlefish pack is also done and ready for printing. So things definitely ready for pre-order is: - Filthy Franku Gangu - Blushing Animals - Cuttle Buddies Till next week's update, I guess? I'm trying to be as active as possible posting blogs, so I'll post a blog about merchandise here since that's my main focus rather than comics right now. So I have a deadline of submitting stickers and prints and such on September 30 because there's a zinefest going on Gabby and I wanna sell merch at. Gotta get that promo. Anyways, I've been making a lot of sticker packs since that's the most I can really do right now. Besides prints and zines. Some sticker packs and a zine is up for preorder in the merch section right now, actually. wink wonk. Working on the Bones Zine rn. I'll post updates of it next week. Bye hoes.
