Description
"What? Wait, I've seen this one before!" Well, of course you have. But don't get feeling all cheated just yet. I've digitally re-done the lettering on the sign to make it fit better with the "Rats in the Cellar" storyline--I'll go in and draw a new sign by hand for the finished posting of this some time in the future, and then I'll move one or the other "Twisted Plot Page01s" to my scraps.For those of you following this series in order, click here next .
Here's an update on this chapter of the series: It's okay to get your hopes up, because I'm about ten pages ahead right now. I've inked everything up to Page 11, and am pencilling things in. I hope to have the whole chapter done within three weeks, which means, on average, that I'm spending about 3-4 hours per page. Since I'll be gone to the hospital today, I'm posting this one and Page 02 this morning.
What do you need to know about this storyline? Well, you ought to read "Rats in the Cellar" first, if you haven't already. Basically, our heroine this time around is a wand-wielding witch named "Avora." She's obviously not into that pointy nose, conical hat, green skin thing. And what's she doing? Well, in a large, unnamed town stands an inn--THE inn from "Rats in the Cellar." A barmaid disappeared in the cellars beneath that inn, and when a warrior woman went to find out why, she fell victim herself, and was taken captive. Two girls in the clutches of some bizarre evil-doers, but for what purpose?
Avora has a suspicion about that purpose. She even suspects who's behind it all. So she has journeyed to the edge of some spider-infested hills some distance outside of town. There, she is sneaking in (forcing, really) through the back garden's gate of an old run-down noble villa ("Mitesceru Manor") to learn if her suspicions are true. If they are true, Avora hopes to put the kabosh on a former rival's plans for greatness, and possibly even increase her own powers a bit.
Well, although the sexy witch may be right about some things, something is about to go horribly wrong...
Oh, now don't tell me you're even the least bit surprised by that idea...
It's me, you know.Enjoy!
And, for those interested in reading a cool narrative of the "Rats in the Cellar" series, I need ideas for a way to post it with the pictures. It was done by Dyun , and it's lots of fun, and well-written. So, please offer any suggestions that come to mind. Thanks!

I love it! She's beautiful!
Hey Faile, can you spread the word about MY artwork?

I'd like to see that fan fic by Dyun. The best way to post it with the pictures would be to put it in the descriptsion right underneath your thoughts on your piece. I've seen alot of people who do that kind of thing.
But I'm very interested in that story

Actually, I was giving her a chance to write up Chapters Three and Four before I posted any of them. I'll check in with her again to see what she's thinking about it. I have her first draft of "Rats" and "Plot" and will likely add a bit to them myself before I post/print them anywhere. Thanks!

you said there was the first victim, do you have the first victim scenario?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
No. I didn't draw Anna's disappearance in the cellar, and there's a very good reason for it--it will become apparent soon after Deirde here either falls victim or rescues the other victims.

Everything seems to be well thought out here! 
Oh, there's a woman. She's lovely, too. XB It's pretty obvious how she got in, which . . . is the point! *lol*
Sorry, nothing constructive to say. I just lub it.

i like your textured technique, it works really well, but i like how you left the sparks clean.

Thank you. I, too, was pleased with how the mystical sparks/smoke turned out.

The stripping scene will take far fewer pages...

The bookies are doing brisk business taking bets on how many pages into the story we go before seeing her stripped and bound by some kind of nasty creatures.

And the auctioneers as well: "Five pages! Do I hear six? Six pages! And how 'bout seven? Seven, anyone? Yes, seven there in the back! Eight? Do I hear eight?"

I forgot what the original looked like, but I thought the old one was great, and so is this one.

The only thing I changed was the lettering on the sign. Thanks!

The sign is heaps better. 'Mitesceru' ... I'm wondering if the name will prove significant
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Since you're wondering, I'll let you in on a little secret: "timescere" is latin for "to dread," in which I switched to letters and opted for a "u" ending. Why? Well, if read a little incorrectly, the name could be pronounced "Might Scare You."

Ah-Ha! Now who's the genius
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Well, it ain't the guy who said, "switched to letters" in his last post. What did he switch to letters from, it makes you wonder. Oh, I don't know. Maybe he was using "numbers" beforehand, and decided it would work better using letters... Okay, how about "switched two letters." Genius. That's me. "Wile E. Coyote, Super-Genius..."

It's funny how if you consentrate on a few words or a small phrase, they can become quite alien and lack sense (like in a crossword puzzle when the answer is straight forward, but if you're inclined to think deeply or cryptically, you miss it). And when a typo is involved too, that's most cruel. I bow to your genius

What was up at the hospital, if it isn't too nosy of me to ask?

Thank you. Here's a journal entry about the hospital. It's an ongoing thing. [link]

I love the detail and consistancy of detail in your pictures, the ground looks as loving rendered as the fair maiden.
That and the inclusion of the title in the wall is brilliant and subtly eye catching.

Thanks! Sometimes, I admit, I get bored drawing the grass and such, but usually it's just a matter of getting anxious to move on to the next picture, and I've got my speed down now, so that shouldn't be a problem.

Personally, background drive me insane with boredom. I am always in total awe of people who take the time to do everything like you do.

Me, too. Sometimes I don't do it. Like in these first few pictures here. It's nice to focus just on the figures sometimes, both in drawing and in viewing.

Hmm, do we get to see the warrior again, I liked her ^^
Althought, this should be intresting. A garden, what could possibly go wrong?
Art just as great as always!
