On Top Of The World - (Announcement!)

An unwelcoming place that few strive to reach.

I think that everyone who embarks on any creative endeavor has a dream project. A project that the mere idea of ever completing fills them with motivation to keep pushing forward. This is what this project is for me. I'm making a comic. Before I decided to become an illustrator, my goal was to tell stories through comics; that is the sole reason I started to draw. Things have changed since then, but I still haven't forgotten about my original dream project, and now that I finally feel comfortable with my skills, I am excited to finally bring that dream to life. This is the first time I embark on such a large project; I don't know how long it will take me or if I will manage to convey my vision for it properly, but I feel like I will implode if I don't carry it out, so I'm starting to work on it. So what even is this comic about? I'm not sure myself; right now I have a very loose grasp of how the story will play out, and I have next to no experience with story telling, so there's still a lot of work to be done, and I want to do some stuff before I start painting any panels, so don't expect to see any pages soon. I don't want to rush this project; this is just an announcement, or more practically, a public compromise for myself. All I can tell you about the story right now is that these two are Ivy (on the left) and Milo, the main (and possibly only) characters, and that it will be a (hopefully) not very long one shot. Here's a speedpaint of the process. I'm open for commissions!
