The Intern Case #2
🕑 Added 2025-09-15 11:00:00 +0000 UTCThis is the second (and the last) piece from my cancelled series. Did you notice that I used 3D assets in both illustration? Here, the glasses, bag, and shoes were 3D.
I've been working in the webtoon industry for years, where 3D assets are used to help with production. Personally, I don't like how jarring they can look next to hand drawn art (if you've read webtoons, can you spot them?). Still, they're undoubtly useful when dealing with insane deadlines. I tried applying the same principle here, using 3D to speed things up while smoothing them out so they wouldn't look too jarring. And while it worked, it also took away some of the joy.
I've mention before that I love fantasy/gore genre despite how difficult it is, right? Maybe the challenge is part of what makes it enjoyable. In webtoon production, 3D assets don't just help with speed, they're also great for consistency. For example, we don't need to redraw the same pair of shoes or a weapon across dozens of panels in multiple chapters. In that sense, 3D is a lifesaver. But for a short project or a single illustration like this, I don't think it's necessary. I'll still use them in my work though (with a different approach), especially for backgrounds like interiors or buildings. Otherwise, I'd probably die ( ꩜ ᯅ ꩜;)
FYI, the money I got from FANBOX is mostly used to buy background assets! You can find them in most of my works!! So thank you once again for your support (ෆ˙ᵕ˙ෆ)♡
Now, for the crime scene! The victim here is a junior accountant. Her body was found on the pavement behind the office, the path leads to the south parking lot, usually used for loading docks and services. But her car was parked in the underground parking lot.
Her working laptop, phone, and wallet were missing. The body was discovered in the afternoon, before rigor mortis had set it. There's no sign of self-defense.
So, what do you think happened? Why was she in a place she wasn't supposed to be? Was she meeting someone? Someone she knew? And how confident must the killer have been to commit murder in broad daylight? But then again... was it confidence, a careful plan, or desperation?

An accountant near the loading docks is an odd one. I think she was likely meeting someone in that lot, possibly setting up her to be assailed on the relatively isolated path, that might explain the confidence to attack her during the daytime. The missing items might point yo a robbery but I'm not sure if that is the cause for the killing.

It seems that 3D assets can indeed save a lot of drawing time, hahaha. It looks good. I feel your processing is already very smooth and not very abrupt. However, it does have a feeling of webtoon. Finally, as always, please take care of yourself. I still have some commissions that need your help when I save up more money. ՞˶･֊･˶՞

I never even noticed the 3D assets, they are well integrated. Long times naratives are hard, a bunch of short ideas or scenes are so much easier.

This is the first time that I know the word "background asset", and it seems to be costly. By the way, could we expect to see a chapter of "Operation Christmas" next Monday?🥰

Huh. Did these victims have names? As for Victim #2, cause of death was strangulation by ligature.
