Making of "Teaching the Younglings (remaster)"
🕑 Added 2019-12-27 17:14:22 +0000 UTCIt was weird having the make the hands "less good" for the remaster. I'd originally taken a bunch of reference photos for the closeups of the cupcake (and got to eat a cupcake!) but I had to "dumb it down" for the new style. Funny how sometimes less is more!
The first time I posted I underestimated how mind blowing the "cupcake hack" would be to a lot of people. It's something I figured out when I was little and I'd seen a meme or 2 about it in recent years, so I figured it was common knowledge. Turns out it isn't, so when I redid the strip I edited out the "fluff" text in the bottom left panel. I moved the bulk of the final speech into the gap, which gave me a lot more room to play with in the final picture.
I studied a bunch of Star Wars posters to figure out how they work (red/blue light effects and weird perspective mostly!) and then composed my own with sweet treats. It was a lot of work, but very satisfying!
