The subtlety works for it, if it were spiky it'd look like he's shouting.
Ditto..

:
Aggregate websites aren't great for aspiring artists/professionals. I'd definitely recommend Fennec branching out from DeviantArt and forging her own portfolio, especially as her talent continues to grow.

That's just my opinion though. A professional URL to slap on a business card goes a long way, and it helps you stand out.

Regardless, the story is great, Fennec, and I'm looking forward to more!
And ditto

Story telling and world building can be hella fun and tedious at time but best of luck to you fellow writer.

This is an awesome comic! Don't put yourself down, you're already doing some amazing stuff with your talent, which is more than most people can say. When you feel you're at a more professional level, do make a portfolio for yourself. You never know, something like this could even be professionally published. I'd buy it.

I can't think of a better endorsement than that, Fennec!

(Alex, take inspiration. Give us official Oddworld graphic novels. We will pay you handsomely for them.)

Fennec, I think your artworks have amazing details and that you have some talent in your hands.

Now get cracking on a portfolio and show the world your talents!

I adore worldbuilding, but I agree that it can get sooooo complex. You have to take every little single piddly detail into account if you want to create something that can actually work with suspension of disbelief. S'why I've got so much respect for the people who created Oddworld as a setting. It might be icky and goofy and cartoony, but it feels like it could be real.

Thank you! I've always loved comics/graphic novels, and if I'm not able to get a job in the gaming industry, I'd like to try my hand at being a comic artist. After Wrath is finished (and I fully intend to see this through to the end) I have plans for a couple original stories that I'd like to bring to life as comics.

You're welcome! How many more pages do you think you have left until the first issue of Wrath is complete?

By my estimate,the prologue has about 4-5 pages left, and then the actual main character finally shows up :P

I think it'd be a good idea to finish the chapters and then post them as opposed to posting them page by page. That's good you build HYPE

But if I only post when each chapter is done then how can I keep up a steady supply of feedback to feed my fragile artist ego

Besides, most webcomics usually post per page anyway.

I really look forward to when you've finished the prologue, and Stranger comes into it. Like I said, you have talent. Your technique on the rain alone was very good. I used to do art on my waccom, but life got in the way. I was never this good to begin with, but I wish I could have done stuff like this. You're brave to pick Oddworld, due to it's dark and grittiness, you can only imagine how hard it is sometimes.

Keep them coming out when you're ready. Do you have a set time frame for when you release them? Even if you manage one a week or fortnight, there's still enough hype there to have your fans coming back. You don't want to jerk their chains.

I do urge you again to create a portfolio this year. Even if you only begin the website process next year. Deviantart is great for exposure, but it groups you in the masses. By presenting your own personal page, it creates a professional and individual look for you. It also allows for people or companies to contact you and you can monetize it to help with the SMALL fees or running the website. Honestly, I would be very happy to help you if you needed it.

Well she's a student and has a job so a consistent release schedule isn't really viable.

Annnd there goes Raider. gg

I honestly can't believe I've finally hit double digits on this comic, thank you so, soooo much to everyone who read, commented, or otherwise supported this weird little project of mine <3 However, I am probably going to be taking a break from this for about a week or so. Classes are about to start again, and I want to make sure I have a good handle on my new courses before I start on the next page.

The last part gave me a shiver, still awesome! Don't be too long, I want to see Stranger!

I haven't been strolling around the forums in some while, only the discord. Now that the ARG brought me back, I saw this. This is really cool Fennec! I absolutely loved the prologue picture. I don't want Raider to die..! I hope Sekto is going to have Raider's voice somewhere in his head

Oof, yeah, I have been kind of lazy on this haven't I? I blame classes and ARK. The next page is already fully lined, but it still needs to be shaded, colored, and polished. Hopefully not too long!

ANNNNND WE'RE BACK! Got maybe one or two more pages before the prologue is finished and the actual main character finally shows up. Also, I wanted to actually show Sekto (Sekraider?) in the last panel but I couldn't figure out an angle that didn't make him look like a total tool, so you get perfectly-timed lightning instead.

I agree with Varrok. It's better that we don't see Sekraider yet, gives more desire to read the comic to me. Also one/two more pages? You've got work to do.
