cataphractz: I really enjoy this story with all my heart and I didn't mean to start something here!

PermanentFace: @MetalC0Mmander: I'm not sure I understand your train of thought there, unless you meant to include a 'not' in the first part of your comment.

But that doesn't make much more sense, considering how many of us actually HAVE put money into this comic.

Enheldor: @PermanentFace: Who's put money into this? The merch was for merch, not donations for the comic.

PermanentFace: @Enheldor: That fundraising campaign was to pay Kaz so he'd be able to work on the comic full-time. The merch was just an incentive.

forestOverlord: The crowdfunding campaign was so that people could buy merch without Kaz having estimate how much merch to order up front. He said that raising more than $50,000 would probably make it a lot easier for him to work on things such as Prequel, but he made no promises.

That being said, I'm sure that he is working on something.

It would be great if the story ever started to progress at a descent rate again, though.

Enheldor: @PermanentFace, @forestOverlord: I never saw any announcements that that the merch run was for anything other than merchandising. As such, I only gave money for merch; now that I have received my product, the transaction is completed. I expect nothing more because I have not purchased anything (except for some fanart that is somewhere in the mail). I do not demand a free thing immediately; because I have not given money for an update, if I want one, I must patiently wait until it arrives. Or I could make my own, with blackjack and hookers.

forestOverlord: @Enheldor: In fact, forget about the update. And the blackjack. Ah, screw the whole thing.

MetalC0Mmander: So I might have started a civil war... Yay!

AGMsInbound: @MetalC0Mmander: It wouldn't be the Prequel fanbase if we didn't start a war every two months. Just think about it and you'll see we start one up like clockwork. Or a least we have over the last year or so. Before a time about 13 months back it wasn't so common.

Wait...

MetalC0Mmander: @AGMsInbound: Ha. 13 months ago. The prequel community as been a bunch a pendantic fucknuts at least since http://www.prequeladventure.com/fanartbooru/post/view/2809#search=artist%3AKatiaaitaK March 2, 2016... Fuck he's right!

unknown_victor: Guns are a bit small, other then that I love it!

Cyrus_Blacksword: No doubt one of alternate outfits she wanted Quill to buy for her

angrybacteria: I've been waiting for someone to do more Warhammer stuff, especially witch hunter.

MetalC0Mmander: I'm guessing she'd be one of the few Witch Hunter that aren't completly metal. I mean she would be insane but at least she wouldn't go around murdering people for kicks.

MetalC0Mmander: @MetalC0Mmander: Mental! I meant to say mental! Don't know if she would be metal or not mind you.

Tahrey: I feel the irresistable tingle of SCIENCE! creeping over me. Someone might have to handcuff me to the chair for my own protection.

(Later)
SCENE: A nearby discount store

"Can I help you sir?"
"No, no, just browsing for ... supplies..."
"It's just that chair you're dragging behind you is making a bit of noise ... and damaging the floor ... and scaring the children ... and knocking lots of stuff off the shelves..."
"No, honestly, I'm fine, but thank you for asking. I've got some science to do."

AMKitsune: @Strawberry-Jamasaur: Honestly, with your pre-existing artistic ability, learning how to use whatever program(s) you end up choosing can only serve to make your pictures cleaner, sharper and maybe even more colourful? (if you decide to go down that route)
A lot of learning about these sorts of programs can be found on places like youtube. If you ever want anything specific explaining though, feel free to ask. I may not be quite as talented an artist as the rest of you, but I'm not too shabby at finding my way around an image editor and knowing what most of the buttons do XD.
It might be a bit jarring to begin with considering the different feels of traditional mediums compared to digital, but learning your way around an 'art program' would defiantly be a skill worth developing. If nothing else, you'd be able to digitally touch-up your scanned/photographed traditional work.

Strawberry-Jamasaur: @AMKitsune: I honestly think the thing I need to improve most on is coloe and effects. I find that a lot of the artists I aspire to have a way with color that simply eludes my understanding. It's part of the reason my work thus far has been monochromatic. Thank you for the offer to help.

Tahrey: SJ: Pretty certain if you can handle the monochrome pencils that well, colour will hold no particular challenge once you get over the fear and do the necessary research.

Also, USE MSPAINT, LOL.
(Honestly, a lot of people have made amazing stuff with simple tools like that, and it could be a good intro to the "feel" of digital media before getting overwhelmed by all the different tools and features of Photoshop and the like)

Tahrey: Or whatever sprite / pixel arting thing that Kaz uses, in fact.

Strawberry-Jamasaur: @Tahrey: Well, my problem with color is more about color choice. I'm terrible at choosing colors, but when the colors are not decided by myself I usually do fine. And I have actually used Pokemon Art Academy quite a bit, so I've done some other digital stuff before.

emperor_agon: Hope for you yet/Stay determined needs to be a real song.

Tahrey: In which case, photoshop or the like may actually be the better choice for you. That or an oldskool hard-paletted paint program. That way you can separate the different coloured parts into individual layers, and then change it to your heart's content later on with the colour tinting / hue shift tools (or in the old program, twiddle the colour indexes around/use a colour-replace tool).

And indeed if you go old skool enough you'll either have a limited range of colours to pick from for your palette (EGA-high, Atari ST, Amiga especially in extra-high-rez) or a near-/completely-fixed one (EGA low, pretty much every non-Atari 8-bit machine ever...), which would be an interesting exercise in picking sets of colours that work well together, blending them in various ways to create (a still-limited-range-of) intermediates and that, in extreme cases (and as shown off in some of Kazerad's own deliberately retro styled sprite arts), can even be used to substitute for the shadow / highlight tones of other midtone hues.

Tahrey: emperor: Hope you stay determined?

forestOverlord: Happy New Year 2016.

Verskon: Oh but Aggy disagrees.

AMKitsune: "Make your dreams come true..."

But my dreams are horrifying nightmares!

BadReligion: But, but ...video games.

Cyrus_Blacksword: Not with that attitude!

Rick2tails: typical self help book

JaHannar: I discovered last night that I made an animation after Kaz's stream, but for some reason the way I saved it could not be exported as a gif, so there is no animation. oh well.

GoodIdeasAreOverrated: This...This is actually kind of amazing. You must have been WASTED.

JaHannar: Yeah, the animation was better, but the file was so screwed up, I think I tried to run it in a game script to make it into an npc for oblivion. First and possibly last time I drink... Until next stream.

GoodIdeasAreOverrated: You... you tried to run an animation on a game as the script for an npc? Wow, i have no words.

SomethingAfwl: only a few months late. better than kazerad tbh.

Filthypaladin: The Imperial Legion's mascot???

Vidiotdragon: Drugs. Lots of drugs.

OppoQuinn: If the comic ended on this note, I'd be pretty happy.

Toryu-Mau: Now you too, can "Preemptively Self Defend".

Nyflex: That's so cool!

Adroma: SCREEE IT'S BEAUTIFULLLLL

furnut: Katia's alternate reality self? Didn't expect that

Mezhik:

Rick2tails: nice picture here Katia looks bad ass! :)

Enheldor: @Mezhik: Nice close-up on Katia!

AMKitsune: You may fail spectacularly now, but keep it up and one day you'll be soaring across the plains with more swagger and grace than any other Khajiit in the land!

GoodIdeasAreOverrated: Katia is so immensely good at fucking up so hard in one go, that she expended all her fail energy to fail even further. So yeah, we can expect news of a flying yellow soon.

Rick2tails: this is very cute

ThatGuyWithAKhajiitWaifu: Indeed it is!

AMKitsune: practice makes perfect

Enheldor: @AMKitsune: Nice!

angrybacteria: @AMKitsune: Perfect.

EKToRNo: @AMKitsune: Beautiful

Rick2tails: think of these as behind the scenes mini updates !

Sybracus: Is she making a snow angel here?

AMKitsune: @Sybracus: Probably not. We've seen how that can turn out.

BadReligion: Productive mode:ON

@AMKitsune: For me it looks like more legs from dress but she have only one thing in head...

Pineapplekat:

Geravind: @BadReligion: It's a fir-tree with a radio relay on it's top!

GoodIdeasAreOverrated: Oh god, are you making this into a increasingly bored Katia series? I love it.

Cyrus_Blacksword: I imagine all this is happening as she debates in her mind whether to go through with her plan or not

Enheldor: @Cyrus_Blacksword, @Unidentified_BA: I know of your sins...

Pepsidude: this is how I feel all the time

Nefel: "Katia fucking up snow angels because of her tail"

KillerfishSG: That's not a dick! It's erm... feet! Yes, feet!

Higuera: XD ignore it,its just a horse dick,everybody knows angels have horse dicks...

emanresU_looC: I agree with Killerfish, angels are allowed to have feet.

Xanthu_the_Crimson_Wizard: wait was she trying to make a non weird one for it?

Skoon: I legit laughed at this for like an hour.

CoolestUsername: that's raciss

Petrified_Yo-yo: good comic, yo!

Rick2tails: spot on style of Heathcliff there. I`d take that kitty home if they dont want her >;)
