Smokeless Fire - Medieval Fantasy
Welcome! Expect intrigue, political plots, character development, and adventure as we follow the story behind Eisenland's civil turmoil and what lies beneath.
Mainly started as a project to make me competent at Inkscape, the story developed a mind of its own, and it bothers me to not give it tangible form. So out of guilt/irritation I'll be updating steadily, but maybe not frequently.
Thought I received enough critiques from the Arts and Crafts thread (they're always welcome though) and created enough pages to put it here now.

Re: Smokeless Fire - Medieval Fantasy
You remind me of me, haha, what with the world map and city splash page, but while I did it for consistency of game mechanics, it was a natural part of your comic.
Very nice art and keep up the good work.Currently playing a "blind" (Miraluka) sniper in a Star Wars SAGA Edition RP

Re: Smokeless Fire - Medieval Fantasy
Subbed! I look forward to this development in both plot and art, especially after seeing what Inkscape is capable of (city splash).

Update (#6)!
Say hello to new cast member, Prince Paris (name not explicitly mentioned yet)
Experimented with lighting effects and the "Difference" tool under Inkscape - so useful for windows and frames!Last edited by SubLimePie; 2013-08-07 at 09:23 PM.

Re: Smokeless Fire - Medieval Fantasy
Hehehe, this world has more of a grey and gray morality, everyone has their own reasons for whatever they do...
And yup, a theme of this webcomic is that some characters' designs are based on a popular figure, but their personalities may or may not be totally different from the origin character.
Part of the fun is figuring out which character is which, and I promise you they'll get harder :P.
P.S. He's not "evil"
(of course they could just change their clothes)

Re: Smokeless Fire - Medieval Fantasy
New page (#7) is up!
@t209 Yes the consul was named after him , with Draconia adopting a likeness to our Byzantine and Roman empire.
The huge marble columns and the simple yet grand architecture reminds me of our classical era.
I hope the images I'm posting are small enough to be excused without spoilers :0 (I thought images are allowed raw as long as they're not too large)?
I redid the exposition on the city scene (#4) to give a little history of the Elysian nations.
0AC Eisenland was like our Roman empire, which fell to internal strife and barbarians - enter the "dark age".
That's 600AC (after conquest) Eisenland: barbaric and crude, with technology having regressed to remove highways, sewage systems (gross), and other public works that allow for urbanization.
The empire's been splintered into warring houses, each led by a warlord vying for power over the remnant territory.

Re: Smokeless Fire - Medieval Fantasy
So that's why Hefistaestus* was holding up random nobles...
Plot is thickening.
*Nicknames will continue until I can remember his name. Also, this may be helpful for his dialog.
