And Here’s A Timelapse Of My Earliest Version Of My Current Process, Showcased With My Fifth Page!
And here’s a timelapse of my earliest version of my current process, showcased with my fifth page! Again, potential flashing lights warning.
Currently, it’s a little different, but the outline goes like this:
1. Make rough.
2. Solidify panel layout.
3. Solidify dialogue.
3. Make rough sketches.
4. Make speech bubbles.
5. Make lineart, with separate layer of the background lines covering the lines on the base.
6. Colors
7. Shading
8. Other effects.
It’s much easier to manage layers than when I started, and it encourages me to work more quickly to boot!
…later down the line, I mean. I forgot this page was a toughie for me.

Flashing Lights warning, but I figured I’d show a timelapse of how I first made pages, using my first page. With Procreate, though, you have to manage a sometimes strict layer limit, so I now have a more efficient process I’ll show in another post

Next-day reblog!
In this page, Pleht starts a fire.

Transcript under the cut:
Pleht is uneasily looking at a doorway into a dark room. There are signs of overgrowth within. He digs into his coat (with small "RUSTLE" SFX). Pleht: …Should be okay, just this once. I mean, w-who's gonna know? Pleht: Please understand, Mr. Sardon. Magic swirls around his hand as Pleht prepares a piece of flint and a special ring over his thumb. He flicks (with "flick" SFX), but nothing happens. Pleht: Come on, come on, why isn't this working? It worked just fine yesterday! Pleht keeps flicking, but naught but sparks show up. The flicks (with plenty of "flick" SFX) attract the attention of a creature in a hole in the wall. Creature: chttr? Creature: chtt… chtt… hissss Pleht finally accomplishes his goal, looking at the flame hovering above his thumb, unaware of the large legs above him. Pleht: Ha, finally! Now to… He stops, face full of dread as he realizes there's a giant ladybug behind him.
Morning reblog!
In this page, two heroes are oh-so-close to meeting.

Pleht throws the metal ball into the foreground, the ladybug excitedly turning to chase it. Pleht: GO FETCH! Ladybug: skree! Brudil punts the Bandaged Slugfolk into the other Slugfolk (with "PUNT!" SFX), sending both through the open doorway. Brudil: GET OUTTA HERE! Pleht (wiping brow): Whew! Brudil (standing proudly): Well, that takes care of that! Pleht picks up the dropped flint, while Brudil picks her bucket helmet up. Pleht prepares to go through the dark doorway, trying to get his magic flame back up (with "flick" SFX) Brudil puts her helmet back on and turns her attention to the thorny plants once more. Loud banging can be heard from the other door she missed (with "RATTLE" and "BANG!" SFX) Pleht and Brudil: Alright, where was I…?
In this first page, Pleht misses a few points.

Caption: The Tower of the late Duke Corpus, west of Everteeter A large image of an old tower can be seen, with panels inset. In the first, we see Pleht nervously peering through a door. The next three show a swinging axe (with accompanying "WHOOSH!" sfx), several wooden stakes embedded in a wall, one of which has pinned a skull, and purple gas coming out of a vent (with accompanying hiss.." SFX) The final panel reveals that Pleht is oblivious to all three, and is in fact too short to have been harmed as he walks through. Pleht (thinking): If I find a trap, my life could be cut short!
In the world of Dungeon Smalls, is it common for gnomes to go 'adventuring'? Or for goblins to learn magic?
For gnomes, it’s more common to see one only taking on dangerous jobs when necessary. While they are generally one of the more resilient folks around, they tend towards aiding their local community with remarkable persistence. A more common adventure is either a rescue mission or gathering resources from a place that’s dangerous for other folk due to things like poor air quality.
As for goblins, it varies. Goblins in general believe each one of them has a destined ambition (often referred to as “Paubb’s Call” after the god of action). They may not be the best at their passion, but you can reliably guess they will strive for improvement at every turn.
So while anyone could feasibly learn magic, if a goblin feels Paubb’s Call pulling them to spellcasting, they WILL learn it.

Meet Pleht Scrapeson!
He/Him | 23 | Goblin
Born and raised in the modest fishing town of Tidesworth, Pleht had shown a natural knack for magical things since he was a kid. His parents thus encouraged him to pursue an apprenticeship under the famed wizard Sardon the Beige; obviously, this was his calling. He has since grown from one weird kid into one nervous and cautious adult.
See him try some magic at:
In this page, Pleht gets grappled.

Transcript below the cut:
Brudil is kneeling, picking her bucket back up. Brudil: I need a real helmet… "WHIMPER" SFX comes from her left. Brudil: Hello? Is someone there? Pleht gasps (with "GASP!" SFX) and slaps a hand over his mouth. Brudil peeks around the door and sees him. Brudil: Hey, are you all right? Pleht: YEEP! Brudil: It's okay, I'm not gonna hurt you. In fact… Brudil grabs Pleht, striking a heroic pose and tearing up. Brudil: …I'll make sure you get out with me unscathed, new friend! Pleht: YACK! Pleht (thinking): THE MONSTER'S GOT ME I'M GOING TO DIE OH PAUBB SAVE ME I KNEW THIS WAS A BAD IDEA I HOPE AT LEAST I'M GOOD EATING BECAUSE I CAN'T GET OUT OF THIS DEATHGRIP I DON'T EVEN KNOW WHAT KIND OF SPELL COULD SET ME FREE I JUST… NEED… TO TRY… SOMETHING! Pleht reaches into his coat, rummaging for anything to aid him.
