It's the ephemeral space between between Christmas and New Years, my health keeps on backsliding, and I get to draw WHATEVER I FEEL LIKE!!!!(what i wanted to draw was a fun power imbalance drawing with Leeds in the gladiator helmet)I was thinking about the nice damask i drew in photoshop with th...

YES IM STILL MAKING THESE THANK YOU FOR BEARING WITH MEOne thing Ananth and I were really disappointed in for BG3 was the dearth of fancy party missions despite there being a plethora of beautiful outfits that had no benificial stats or purpose other than looking like fancy party clothes. Maybe for ...

Wallpapers! Happy holidays from BARBAROUS!

Happy holidays! Gosh, everyone's offering Percy a drink!Lot of ups and downs this year! But making comics was very exciting. Our collaboration evolved a lot, and in a way that will probably unfold across the next few years. We're developing a new project! We'll talk about it with our pat...

FINALLY in act 3 of Baldur's Gate - the end of the game - Percy finally hooked up with someone!!!! And it was one of the weird unexpected one night stands, too! Extremely in character, I'm proud of her. I tried not to be TOO spoiler-y with this but, well.By the end of the game (full disclosu...

Chapter 8 / Page 21 breakdowns

WOW THERE'S 10 PANELS IN THIS PAGE!!!This is one of Ananth's thumbnails, I think he did a great job of giving flow and interest to an information-heavy conversation between two sitting people. In the end, this wasn't a super challenging page to draw - medium shots of people emoting with ...

LOL somehow this has been the longest one of these drawings has taken me, but I wanted to commemorate this moment!!! We've been leaning into summoning so you can just have a jillion weird allies hanging out with you (it absolutely destroys NPC pathfinding lol) and it is ... extremely fun. Highly...

Chapter 8 / Page 20 breakdowns

This scene is so WORDY! We tried to make the scene imagery fun despite all the information/history we were trying to convey. Conversations shouldn't be a slog to draw or read!One thing I failed to mention on page 19 at the beginning of this chapter - as Percy moves through this chapter and inter...

WYLL NOOOO!!! Wyll's act 2 romance scene was so cute, but also hanging out with him DOES make anyone you're dating get mad at you. :,) The same happened with Gale, but it seemed so much more innocuous with Wyll because you're just doing a little line dance!!Ultimately we wound up choosin...

Chapter 8 / Page 19 breakdowns

YAY we got to page 19! This probably wound up being my favorite page of the chapter! I just like the breathing space and visual interest of the slow zoom into a new environment (in this case, NYC K-town in Herald Square ... you'll see the Empire State Building later in the scene to confirm it, f...

Hmm, did you know that when you go to the elf graveyard and dig up all the graves, the elfs get mad at you, very unexpectedmaybe the elfs should not have buried all these very rare spells and magical amulets

Chapter 8 / Pg 16 breakdowns

YESSS who can resist a fashion breakout!!! We've had a couple of those in this chapter, but this is the most bombastic one. :DAnanth thumbnailed this entire scene and was definitely going for an escalation of shoujo vibes. I definitely expanded on it with the exploding bouquet haha - it felt rea...

YOU WOULD NOT BELIEVE WHAT HAPPENED, PERCY GOT AN ENTOURAGE OF GNARLY DUDES :DIt's been fun finding the story parallels we can between our different game journeys and point excitedly and cackle. Anyway now Percy can summon some weirdos to fight with her and sometimes explode into a pile of gore?...

YAY I've been excited to show off this the breakdown of this page!Ananth did a great job doing the thumbnails on this one, it's really fun and kinetic! I really enjoyed doing the moment-to-moment action here, and the character interactions. I don't get to draw kissing very much and it&#3...
