I really didn’t wanna redraw Remiel’s hand because I hate drawing hands but it looked so bad I gave in. It was worth it, but ugh. I even used a 3D model for reference and it still took me a stupid amount of time to not look terrible.

Lest anyone actually confuse me for a decent artist who knows what they’re doing, it took until today to realize I kept switching which side Remiel’s buttons were on. One thing you might notice in general is that I am terrible at keeping track of right and left. When I make mistakes like this, I… Continue reading Chapter 1.1: Stray Cat ~Lost Child~ 022

Qi’nya is probably the most difficult character to draw (though it feels like whoever I’m drawing at any given time is hardest). I’ve always picture him as having a fox face (like Gin from Bleach or Mitsune from Love Hina), but the slanted eyes are surprisingly difficult, and I’m not committed to drawing them closed.… Continue reading Chapter 1.1: Stray Cat ~Lost Child~ 036

This is one of the panels I had to redo entirely because I had accidentally merged the original at once point… That loose strand for Remiel’s hair is basically a permanent design change at this point. I also had him drop his gun to justify it not appearing in further panels.
