I draw stuff.

A blast to model, especially figuring out the shader! I imagined the material to have such condensed darkness to the point where matter would invert and glow in a way that might look like something fiction depics as anti-matter.

I also wanted to remodel the Knight's attack sprite with the eye coming out of their chest since that pose really stood out to me. Overall it ended up looking a lot more Dark Souls-ish than I expected, but I'm quite happy with the result. I ended up fully remodeling the head to emulate the Knight looking warped and bent with the teeth stretching along the maw just like in their canon sprite (you can see it above my sketch). I also tried to warp the legs to like they are melting away, as if losing touch with reality.

And lastly, I wanted to feature a battle scene with the fun gang and additionally rendered it out as a vertically aligned bg in two different sizes in case you wanna use that for phone wallpapers and stuff (see below)! For the battle render, I used some motion blur techniques for the bullets as well as the white shadow behind the Knight to give the whole scene this sort of "phasing" effect.

There are 3 PDFs; one for the full comic, one for the mini-artbook containing concept art, and another for a lower-definition version of the full comic, in case the high def file size (250MB) is too large for anyone. You may pick and choose which you download.

Maybe it's a random request, but if you download and decide to recommend it to others, all I ask if that you link them to the download pages rather than sharing the file directly. This lets me know how many people are actually reading it.

Additionally, I recommend looking over the content warnings on page 3 of the PDF before reading. It is easily some of the most intense artwork I've ever made.

Lastly, if you decide you're a gigantic fan and love the characters, you can buy stickers of them on my ACGGOODS st0re to show your support. If there is a high demand, I may make more merch... maybe. (here's the link to that)

Anyway, I hope everyone enjoys it. I don't really think it's a story for everyone. You will probably need to take away your own meaning to find value in it. I get the feeling many people will reach slightly different conclusions about what they read.

But regardless, I'm just glad this exists now. A lot of my drive behind making this was just proving to myself that I could, and I did. Big goomy's only just gettin started guys... I hope to make many more things in the future...!!!
