Murphy's Law 6: Will we ever stop burning through threads so quickly?

[SamBurke]

Ooh. Good question.

[leakingpen]

and, you can split that. favorite to read, or favorite to make?

[CoffeeIncluded]

Oh man, that's a hard one. I actually love the technically complicated ones, though they're annoying to make, since I love the finished product. And as for to read...There's so many, and a lot of those are ones I haven't made yet. I'd have to say I love the ones I enjoy making, and that have the most emotional response. Anyway, update time!

#134: The Merchants Of Runite

And yes, I read the actual play (Merchant of Venice) and I know this is different. I just mean that..Well, it should be obvious.

[blackjack217]

Hey look an orc wizard and a gnome now who could that be

*Before reading* I've probably never even heard of the play in question

*After* Yup. No idea what play you're talking about

The lack of perspective on the flowers sort of ruins the perspective on the bridge and fence.

Also: The orc wizard and axegnome again! =D

[Hiro Protagonest]

Is that Radic playing soccer with the orc while her dad's talking?

Also, I've never heard of the play.

[blackjack217]

The merchant of Venice right?

[CoffeeIncluded]

Yes, Merchant of Venice. And Hector's a halfling.

I'm more interested in the guy with the cigarette tbph

[Ninjaman]

The last panel looks wrong. Some stuff is 2d and some is 3d. The sizes and the depth also looks wrong.

[Mystic Muse]

Isn't the guy smoking the cigarette a character that's going to star in a different comic? He has a similar pose.

[Hawkfrost000]

+1

It's not Dimitri, but it is his character model. And I know that the last panel sucks. Sorry...

[John Cribati]

That definitely looks like Radic... got the color scheme and everything.

And could that be Quark she's playing with???

Radic, yes. Quark, no.

[Eleanor_Rigby]

Ah The Merchant of Venice... that was the first Shakespeare play I ever studied at school for some bizarre reason.

Also, whilst we're recognising people, the (presumably half elf) girl listening to the guy ranting about taxes reminded me a lot of Tinder's sister. Which caused me to give the guy next to her a second look... which made it seem veeery odd...

Check here to see what I mean...

(ETA: the girl obviously isn't Tinder's sis, she just reminded me of her.)

[fizzybobnewt]

Please don't think the last panel sucks. Apart from the size of the houses and the perspective on the flowers, it's great.

[Eleanor_Rigby]

Gotta say, I don't really see what everyone's issue is with the flowers... I thought it was a sloped bank...? Perspective's not my strong point, mind.

[Marnath]

I thought the last panel looks fine.

Yeah, I got lazy there and used her model.

and the yellow haired "gent" beside her...?

Obviously the two of them had an interspecies romance many years ago but both suffered amnesia somehow after a very dramatic moment. Then something along the lines of her accidentally reverting to dragon form near the corpse of his dead sister made him vow to take up dragonslaying.

Either she didn’t get amnesia until later, she got amnesia a second time, she forgot about him, or she just didn’t see him. my bet is on the latter.

hmmm... or perhaps a wizard of some kind removed the memories of their time together as a punishment for something since she still knows her family.


... i think i just started a crack pairing side-story.

The girl is an elf who happens to look like Tinder's sister, Lyrnain. Note the pale skin. Though the yellow-haired guy is the mercenary.

[pats self on back]

And may I add...

DUN DUN DUN!

[mizzim]

This is really nice... I can't wait for the next one.

[Lycan 01]

Orc in a business suit. Definitely not something you see every day. (Which is why I made one the BBEG of one of my DnD campaigns. )

[SamBurke]

I like, I like. Nothing really wrong with the last panel. Sure, the flowers could be better, but the bridge is AMAZING, so I really don't care.

A lot interesting characters around...

[Lycan 01]

Yeah, I like the background characters a lot, especially cigarette guy. Its nifty to see "life" in the background characters.

[RdMarquis]

Orc in a business suit. Definitely not something you see every day.

It's a relatively common sight in Shadowrun, though. Anyway, this latest comic is pretty interesting. I take it Radic and Riley never actually met, even though they may have seen one another?

Personally, the awkward thing about the last panel is the angle of the bridge compared to everything else. It's not too jarring, all in all.

[CoffeeIncluded]

It's Senior Cut Day, but I'm going to the shelter soon. I should have the comic up by around 5-7 PM, Eastern Time.
