I'm no doctor, but it seemed a simple enough operation so I gave it a shot: Waffnuffly posted:Annie looks at least a little freaked out and probably was more afraid than she let on, but still was pretty brave to even defy Coyote in the first place and stand her ground in his territory. Mastery, not absence. Attention to these details of character is what sells the comic to me.

Can you imagine the shame and disappointment on Ysengrin's face right now? I hope Tom draws it at some point.

I swear, every prediction I make is hilariously off. Ah well, this was clearly the best outcome. Plus Coyote looks just like my dog when she flails about, and that's hilarious.

Monday's update was, for both Antimony and the readers, a test to see how good their poker faces are.

New prediction! Annie's going to be too relaxed and let it slip during her story telling about coyote giving her his tooth and then poo poo will really go down.

I think that Coyote is going to go quid pro quo with Annie and we are going to get sweet sweet exposition and a ton more Coyote avatars. I'm looking forward to it.

Urban Space Cowboy posted:I mean, technically the story is still narrated by Antimony from some indeterminate future point, yes? Since an "...and then I died, ZING!" twist seems far too cheap for Siddell, we can be reasonably confident she'll come out of any situation alive...but not necessarily well... Actually, given the combination of post-death etheric contact, the fact that she knows every spirit of death on a first-name basis, and the whole fire-spirit thing, I wouldn't be surprised in the slightest if the comic ends with Annie dead and watching over her kid from the afterlife, and telling all this to her mom. Which would be a pretty ending, imo. Edit: Or possibly choosing the forest, converting back to an immortal fire elemental, and telling this story to the potential court mediums hundreds of years in the future.

Parts Kit posted:Is it? I completely missed this. edit: oh right it's on the first page. That is beautiful and you should be proud. I genuinely love these sorts of sequences. I felt real tension, there, despite the fact that I was 100% convinced Coyote was only screwing around, there was a tiny part that just wondered 'what if Tom's really going to do it ' Very nicely done.

Coyote has a great secret? Who would have known? Tantrum baby Coyote is awesome. And Ysengrin might actually be getting some respect (?).

Ha ha ha. O my god Ysengrin in panel two and onward. He just so shocked and doesn't know what the hell. Honestly, I love Coyote, he's so unpredictable. I'm now convinced he's just messing with Ysengrin.

This was his plan all along. Ysengrin though, I love him these days.

Couple of nice touches I've noticed this chapter: While Annie is still wearing her makeup, it's much more subdued then in the past. On the new page, whiny Coyote's blue paint patterns on his face morph into tears of a sort. Also, as someone pointed out, Ysengrin is being drawn in a much "friendlier" form than in the past.

How heartless of you, Antimony! Sad Ysengrin should be enough to convince anyone to do anything. More things for fun: I really wanted to do Coyote in the last panel as well, but there's so much other stuff going on around him that I couldn't figure out a good way to frame it. Also, just finished this: If anyone has a decent animation swipe effect and knows how to use it, it'd be cool if you could make it swipe between these. Here's the base image I used to make that from; the left and right borders are the same as the ones in the .gif version: http://i.imgur.com/z4WbH.png lesbian baphomet fucked around with this message at 10:30 on Jul 20, 2012 |

Ysengrin has always been my favourite. This just cements it for me, especially that 3rd to last panel with Coyote messing his face. Brilliant.

Turns out Coyote's Great Secret is that if you kick up enough of a fuss, you'll get your way just so you'll stop.

You lot need to link the new comic page when you start talking about it, I check the forums more than I check my rss feeds . The comic, for ...myself, I guess.

No Annie no! If you turn around now he will believe he can get away with anything! As long as he is acting like a giant baby, he can keep his greatest secret to himself. Wili fucked around with this message at 12:10 on Jul 20, 2012 |

I love how the second panel shows that coyote doesn't let the laws of physics get in the way of being as pathetic as possible. He is very powerful you know.

COYOTE! HAVE SOME DIGNITY! The way Ysengrin says this cracks me up, it's like he's terrified of his own words, but also just has no idea what the hell else to do. Part of me wonders if Coyote is just acting, but either way he's hilarious. This page made my Friday already.

The only reason I'm not buying an avatar right now is because I suspect Coyote's going to give his GREAT SECRET in the form of a long and freewheeling shaggy-god story, which means even better avatars to come! You'd think Ysengrin would be used to him being undignified by now. And now, another 72 straight hours of ing!
