Apothecary Supreme Issue 2, Page 8 – Soup

Shock horror!… It’s the most normal person in the village!

First use of tone for a page rather than pure B&W here. Hatching can only convey so much I find and the matter of ethnicity becomes something of a plot point.

It frankly does make me wonder if it would be worth toning everything, but I worry it would ultimately be another time sink. I could see myself getting too precious over making it look right and it would probably pile on extra days between releases. To say nothing of being a further departure from Apothecary Supreme’s original style.

Burkhard meets the locals :D

Starting to feel I’ve been going a bit overkill on these interiors; on the one hand I enjoy creating a strong sense of place, however I worry it’s slowing things down for the sake of details no-one really notices… Anyhow! More next Sunday!

A  longer break in uploads than I would have liked (no surprises).

The good news is that through my offline fumblings I have somehow built up a few more pages to share and will be back on the regular Sunday uploads… for a while.

I’ve been missing Burkhard’s stuck up goofiness, so at the very least it’s good to have him back on the page! Plus, more creepy strangers!

And so our new horror scenario and mystery antagonist are primed! Before we continue with this ‘wild trip’ (and bring back a few familiar faces) I’ll be taking a short breather in the uploads.

My backlog is getting a bit thin, so I thought now might be a good spot to slow-up while I ensure the next bit of story maintains a decent flow. That said it won’t be too long! There’s stuff I frankly can’t wait to draw so I’ll power ahead ASAP.

As usual producing pages is in a constant battle with IRL stuff but hell, who doesn’t have that excuse? TLDR: Less talk, more drawing.

A friend called out the lack of gore/horror in issue 1, I specifically aimed to remedy this here ;)

In all seriousness though, I slowed to halt on this one due to being in something of a dark place at the time. Normally I’d revel in drawing stuff like this, but it was definitely the wrong time in my case.
