Description
edited 19.11.2010 Well, it was about time to do something about this. I was juggling between the options of redoing this or scrapping this too, but then I thought it would be too much work wasted to throw it away just because I'm not happy with it anymore. So what will happen with the whole of Royal Visit, slowly, from now on:1. I'll re-ink and -shade them, practicing working more quickly in the process. I'll be doing it when I feel like I want to draw something but don't have anything else going on
2. Perhaps more importantly, because I now have an actual plot to follow (unlike when I wrote this), I'll have to fix some things in the timeline and dialogue. Nothing major, but jarring enough to annoy me. So here we are.
ps. Why yes I did trace Varel. Got lazy.
This happens after the conspirators – not very successfully – ambushed Victoria and the others on their way back to Vigil's Keep. Victoria took a nasty hit to the arm that went through the mail, though, and Anders insisted they rest in the keep until she's fully recovered. Unexpected guests then arrive...
This is a first part of a probably three episode comic, more of a prequel due to its shortness. The next one is going to look very different, btw – I ordered a drawing tablet! Just couldn't contain myself.

This kept flashing past me and I kept thinking I must check it out but it always happened at work or when I didn't have time. Well, better late than never and I'll get started straight away. This looks so promising...

Oh yay, well, you have the luxury of being able to read through almost a hundred pages at once XD I really apologise for the clumsy work on the first chapters. I've been getting used to the medium And drawing, really

I'd like to see more of what happened before all this <3 such as Howe and Anders recruitment and whatnot

Yeah, I've wondered about that before. I'd love to do the beginning as well, but I honestly can't say if I have the time for it or not. I will, however, show Nathaniel's recruitment as a flashback in a future chapter - once my incredibly hectic IRL quietens down a bit. Not long to go now!

You probably realised this, but just to make sure, this page has been edited afterwards. The rest of this chapter is still how it was originally, ie. quite awful I'm progressing slowly with the editing.
You're just too kind <3

Yes, I know I compared the edited page and the original one.
But don't feel obliged to edit everything, the most important is the new pages you'll post
And nah, I just say what I think

Ahh okay Well, I don't feel obliged, I probably will edit the rest of Royal visit because I'm not happy with the lineart, but otherwise I'll just live with what we have XD
Well. The next page is a bit stuck. But I'll try to whip up the energy to fix it.

I'm smelling trouble. And yea drawing tablet! You mean you've been doing this all this time with only a mouse? Now THAT's impressive!

victricia In reply to bukittyan [2010-11-22 18:50:45 +0000 UTC]
No honey no! Check out the date - This was an updated version of something I originally posted back in what, april? I most definitely haven't been working with a mouse. Though I did fix these pages originally with a mouse - not very pretty, eh.
So this happens before The Burning woods, in fact.
What happens after, well, I might update tonight if I'm fast. What a long break I took

I just realized all that after posting on the last four pages. 👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yea update! Can't wait!
victricia In reply to bukittyan [2010-11-22 19:05:26 +0000 UTC]
Mwahaha Happens to the best of us.
And besides it's useful to read this thing too. Though I'll be slowly updating it in the vein of the first page, just because it looks so terrible omgs.

I was like "...what tablet" for a second" But that was back then when I first submitted this. It's not new anymore
Thanks anyway! <3
