This page speaks to me in ways I cannot quite put into words. I adore this. Is there a full comic somewhere? If there was, I would seriously pay for prints of the entire book. :3

this series is so lovely and creative !! Huge congrats and keep on the awesome work

I think almost every relationship has its difficulties and somehow comes to a testing phase.. still, its often not the difficulties themselve but the way both partners decide to solve them (or not) which decide if the relationship continues or not.. you know we wanna see them back together somehow

So why is the Sun Girl naked now while the Wax Boy still keeps the shorts?

she's a flame/ flare while the boy is the wax. Basically a candle. She needs him to stay alive, but destroys or hurts him in the process. at least that's how I interpret it Β

RaunchyPonchy06 In reply to mutho1 [2016-02-01 16:50:40 +0000 UTC]
I understood that, but that doesn't explain the artistic reason why she no longer wears the dress she had in early sketches while the boy didn't lose the shorts too

mutho1 In reply to RaunchyPonchy06 [2016-02-01 20:25:00 +0000 UTC]
i'm guessing you mean the image: Melt my Heart, where she is connected to the candle its left, Ii don't really know I think she consumed it like she did with the candle, and was doing to Icarus. my guess is the the artist will make her fade too as he did with the dress, to give it an alternative ending or he'll follow the mythology and have Icarus sufferΒ

RaunchyPonchy06 In reply to mutho1 [2016-02-02 13:35:14 +0000 UTC]
I am indeed referring to that one, as far as I've seen it's the first image he made after the initial doodle that had them in this more realistic style. I felt like the dress made of flames really added a lot to the overall fire look, and while I'm starting to notice that the boy also had more clothing around his torso too I assume the artist didn't feel like it added much, which I agree with and therefore, who cares.Β
One guess is that he was simplifying the designs, and that the hair was already doing the same job visually that the dress was doing so out it went. But if nude bodies were an easier thing to draw for the artist than clothes, then why did the boy's shorts stay, especially since they don't add to his melting visual effect like his wings do?

because she burns her clothes

RaunchyPonchy06 In reply to ChaoticNote [2016-02-01 16:51:36 +0000 UTC]
That very logical answer demands the logical question of why her hair isn't burned off too

Hair burns slowly. But why would you try putting human logic on something that isn't human?

RaunchyPonchy06 In reply to ChaoticNote [2016-02-02 13:03:54 +0000 UTC]
That's part of my point, is that I'm not asking the "logical" or "in-universe" reason for it, I'm asking the author for what artistic purpose he's decided to do this.

because her hair is also fire?

RaunchyPonchy06 In reply to Spex9000 [2016-02-01 18:44:42 +0000 UTC]
Wouldn't her clothes also be fire then, since the guy's clothes are also wax?

Spex9000 In reply to RaunchyPonchy06 [2016-02-01 18:53:15 +0000 UTC]
well, its possible that Icarus was sculpted that way by someone, and the artist that sculpted him decided he should have pants.Β
In a world where there is a living personification of the sun, I wouldn't look past the possibility that Icarus is a living model that was sculpted by someone.
Though, I'm not entirely sure, there is nothing I can find that supports this, but it kinda makes sense.

RaunchyPonchy06 In reply to Spex9000 [2016-02-01 19:20:27 +0000 UTC]
While that's certainly interesting in-story speculation, the original question is directed at the artist, and has to do with his artistic reasoning behind it, because I doubt there's an in-universe reason that he's thought of yet, so I don't want him to just think of one on the spot for my sake; what I actually want to know is why he changed his mind on that artistic decision.Β

Hm.
That's an interesting question.
One I obviously cant answer. All I can give are concepts and theories.

Flashbacks for the feels!Β This piece feels so strong, knowing that they end up breaking up and her grieving while Icarus flees for his life. I can't wait for more to come! ^-^

I think it'd be interesting to see a her with a face full of anguish as she asked herself why? what led him away?
and on another panel the reason why he left ; v; Β no matter what you do, I'm sure it'll be great. Always an admirer of your work mister doodler ^ v ^
