BUP WIABPart2 Page 28 - Step By Step

This was a bit challenging page to do, due to me wanting to create pixel art icons of the characters. Which was not hard, but rather was to fit them for the comic page and not resize them so that they'd become blurry. I should have measured the size of the final page size. Oh well, it worked out in the end. It was fun to make pixel art again, too.
Other thing you might notice is that I edited the dialog on final panel. Now the rank 1 Bottlers have a name, "Enlightened"
I have been wanting to give the ranks proper names and since this page goes up publicly next week, I decided it was time to put some thought into this. So here are the rank names I came up with.
Rank 1, Enlightened (Allowed to work as a Bottler)
Rank 2, Devout (Allowed to participate in more challenging missions)
Rank 3, Hallow (Allowed to participate in any mission and can keep their W.A.N.D)
Rank 4, Holy (Allowed to become a captain and form a team)
Hmm, quite religious terms, eh?This is purely for a world building reasons and for a chapter where I'd like Mico to talk more about how bottling started and how Ambrosia company eventually became a thing.
I like these rank names, but I am open to any ideas if you guys have even better ones for this theme.

The pixel art is so friggin cute. I love it, and great work on it as well! Also Tanrine is so friggin teenie I love her.
PIXELS!! Those would be great icons... or stickers... ANYWAY! Oh, and I like the idea of the ranks having names like those! We have seen people in Maalja has been very religious in the past, and we have seen some of those things remain as culture / folklore today even for those who don't believe.
I'd love to do the other teams, for sure. And glad you like them. Ppfft, Mico can be charismatic if he wants to, for sure. *looks at next page* Yeep

The pixel art in particular is fun, I hope we get to see the others rendered in that fashion someday. And I like the rank titles, too - funnily enough, I was thinking Mico looked a little like a televangelist in that middle-right picture. XD
