ARTIST THOUGHTS:
Hello again everyone! As you can tell, I’ve finished my uni semester at last after four months of boring hell, hence I’ve got one and half months to get out of my fangirl funk and upload something substantial… Once again this is a random comic idea which is a warm up before I poke part 2 of the Honeymoon comic (I’ll need all the warming up I can get for that beast X___X ), and an idea which I’ve been carrying around for quite some time now. I was finally prodded into action when I was inspired by , and although I’d been thinking of saving this comic for Valentines Day, I realised there was no way in hell I was going to wait one whole year…

So then, what the hell does it all mean? Basically, if you know someone who’s one of a kind, then make sure you show ‘em that’s what they mean to you! That’s why I prefer giving my friends artwork as gifts, since no one pic is the same… though if you also want to go out and find some rare flower with teeth, then… well, by all means.

TECHNICAL STUFF:
It’s the return of the squishy chibis, but I was less lazy this time since I didn’t recycle the images very much. Albel’s three pairs of legs in the first three panels had to be drawn separately and matched in Photoshop, but apart from that there wasn’t much Frankenstein chopping and pasting going on in the comic. Coloured in Photoshop with polygon tool and gradients as usual, while the background leaves and grass were made with some rapid strokes of one of Photoshop’s scratchy looking brushes. The yellowish tinge to the backgrounds was made using the photo filter option, set to yellow.

---------------------------------

And that’s all I really have to say – this was a straight forward comic after all, or at least I hope it comes across that way.   Over and out!
