Atland #219 - The Hare, Part 1
Drawing hundreds of footprints isn't much fun. I learned that with this episode.
But I also learned that I like drawing bunnies. Yay! Fuzzy (evil!!!) bunny! I discovered the best way to make a cute bunny look evil is to give it canine features. Throwing a little bit of "wolf" into its features in the last panel seemed to work best.
I decided to put Bruce's tracking skills to good use. (lest we forget he is a outdoorsman/barbarian type.) And there's a little explanation about Horn Heads and even General Bron's race, the Simians. Sometimes it's hard to inform the readers when I have so many characters running around in the middle of a story, but I try to at least make it logical.
Next week, The hare part 2 -- Nodd & the demon Sissyl's REAL plan suddenly isn't a secret...

I'm digging the slow build.
ReplyDeleteThose glowing red bunny eyes are making me think of the garden gnomes in 'Wallace & Gromit & the Curse of the WereRabbit'. Do they flash on and off while making a buzzing sound?
ReplyDeleteNice job on the evil rabbit. And I really like the peppering of information in this one. Not over the top, not under the top. Just right.
