Great Comic, Zarah! I'll definitely continue reading. Good thing you've put that link in your sig, or I wouldn't have noticed. Good idea with that buffer, too.

Oh and don't worry, I'll still be making comics ahead of their release. I like having that buffer. The only difference is, I won't be uploading them anymore, so you'll just have to wait for the release if you like to read ahead.
Curses! One day one of my schemes will succeed...

The comic is still brilliant, it is definitely my favourite out of all the Arts and Crafts comics. And, because I felt like it, here is an Erfworld style drawing off the main character:

Wow, I must say!

I have looked some of these "fan-made comics" and found them rather boring, but this totally has potential! It is actually fun and even original. That hooded guy felt first little too much of a Xykon, but seems to have its own personality after all which is good.

It's the little details that make things better.

Besides, I'm a lazy artist, and I couldn't think of a better way to have her arms in the air. I tried having her move the hair out of the way, but that looked weird, so I went with this.

Actually, I agree with you there. I realized after a while that he did seem really similar to our resident Lich, so I'm trying to distance him from Xykon as much as possible without losing the whole evil thing. It's not easy since Xykon forms a pretty good basis for being downright evil, but I have some things planned for Cloak-Guy that should without doubt turn him into his own character.

Let's just say that there's far more than meets the eye with him. But then, you probably already knew that.

Another day, another issue. And so far, this one has been my favorite, especially to draw. It was kinda nice being able to draw something different for a change.

Wow, this actualy makes me want to hop in on the webcomic craze, I like to think I have the art skills to pull it off but the huge lack of literacy skills and creativity flaws the plan.

That and I tend to put loads of effort into things and get bored and give up easily...

Mehness, awesome comic but I do not approve of this inefficient Multiclassing

(Witness my bad grammatisation!)

I love the prospect of being a wizard. Just by killing a goblin and saying you are.

Lana:Ooh I want to be a wizard.

Guy in the cloak (GITC)Ok, POOF, congratulations! You have your first level of wizard!

Lana:Wait, that easily? Don't wizards need training.

GITC:Of course you have training!

Lana:How?

GITC:Because you are a wizard now. And all Wizards have training.

Lana:... That doesn't make any sense.

I believe the GitC is to be refered to as Rob, from Robe-Guy. Zarah has referered to him as Cloak-Guy, but Clo doesn't suit him as well.

Why did not Lana become a sorceror? Given her boo... charisma modifiers... she would make a nice one.

Rogue/mages are actually pretty effective. Both classes have to wear minimal armour for various reasons, so it's not like you have to take off craploads of armour and then put it back on all the time like you would as a Fighter/Mage.

Yeah, I know there's a kind of an excess of spellcasters right now, but I have a lot of characters planned for the future, so hopefully I can even out the classes a little more after a while.

Besides, there are reasons for all things.

I require a Skeleton Fighter guy who has black armour and horns on his helmet. Even if he just pops up for like, one panel.

Actually, I don't require anything, but that would be cool.

Edit: I meant this.
