Description #30 - "Cruel To Be Unkind"

I don't know why this one took so long to do, I've been waiting to get to draw this. |3


...And this one is also a plot milestone. You won't guess why. Seriously.

Oooch, the emotionball hit me as hard as Klogg's slap.

Damn, as if killing Robot Bil and Willie wasn't enough for Klogg...

That single tear on Kleo's face really sells it to me(other than the "So do I!").

I've read through the whole comic some weeks ago, and it's great to see a new page again. I really like the style of it, great storytelling, and it fits well to the real Neverhood storyline (at least, I haven't noticed any 'collisions'. Keep up the good work!

..You know pyreo, I really love your art, I think you draw this comic really well, and some of the narrative is really philosophical sometimes (epically Klogg's speech a little while back).

But I personally don't find this story very...Neverhoodian? I don't know, The Neverhood had deep meaning, but with a VERY light-hearted and funny side to it. Even the evil and some sort of humour and subtly to it. I kinda find your stuff a bit to dark and serious to handle when it comes to the Neverhood. this story would do well in something else, but it doesn't seem to fit in the Neverhood (as much as my first fan character did! XD ).

But it's fine you know, I guess that's what makes it your story rather then just reproducing just the Neverhood story. I guess what I'm trying to say is that I'll apologise now if I don't give much feedback on the story. I do, however, Love your art. It's jumped since you've done the Neverhood and your colouring is beautiful. you've also picked up the scenes and drawing style of the Neverhood VERY well.

I'm just one of those people who find that when i appreciate something to mak fanart/fiction of i, I like to keep it as close to it's original form. Then again, maybe I'm just bitter because I've seen too much mary-sue or porn of my beloved animations and games.

Gah, sorry for the huge ramble. Asides from all that, i do still love your art. <3

Pyreo In reply to acidshadow [2008-02-14 13:34:30 +0000 UTC]

Well... I guess I should say that I'm really sorry for doing that. I've been told this before and every time it makes me so guilty. uu

This honestly didn't feel THAT bad when I thought of it. And after all, the majority of this comic so far has been a bit of plot accompanied by my attempts at being funny. Since calling it a 'comic' does imply that it involves humour.

But then every so often, I feel like contrasting that... I went with something that had its basis in shock value instead. Everything kind of has to have its low point so you know the scope of the material you're dealing with... this is my low point. Where I can have a sec to indulge in a bit of variety before it picks up again.

I WILL and I DO try to veer back to the tone of the original, but... I'm not one of those guys who worked on the game... so I don't know how far or in which directions their thought processes went... all I can do is what occurs in my head. So it IS going to be different. And rather than ending up with something mediocre that doesn't know what it's trying to be, I want to play it out to its fullest extent. I can't help it being different and I might as well make it interesting.

All that I, or any fan, can really do it to redevelop some of the ideas on their own terms. I still enjoy drawing this thing and I didn't really expect anybody else to. If there's things you don't like - fine! I totally understand that. xD Maybe some people want to see the game expanded on, and some don't... with fandoms you can pick and choose whose interpretation you like. If something about mine bothers people I guess all I can do is say sorry... but it's like that because it came from me and I can't change that.

Sorry if you weren't expecting such a big-ass reply. |D It's just that I've had this come up in different forms... and I've had some things on my chest about it...

Nah, that's honestly OK.
If you really enjoy doing your comic in the way it is, by all means go on ahead. That's the whole idea of doing art, espcially around something you enjoy. you do something you enjoy and as long as YOU are happy with the story, then by all means, don't let me make you change it. I wouldn't feel guilty because another fan doesn't see the same enjoyment. The overall point of a fandom is that we all love a certain game/film/story etc. If this is the way you want to express your self, then don't let me change that. I was just trying to say that this is the reason i haven't been able to comment on your story that much. however, i do love the art you pull for it and I want to tell you that I'll continue supporting that. <3

Oh jeez, don't worry. |D You don't have to comment on it at all. Personally I don't like much of the art itself so I guess I'm sorry again that it's what you're here for. |D;;

But thanks for sticking with me even so.

Newp, I think Klaymen's halfway towards the throne room at this point... and as for hurting, yes, yes it did.
