The Pleasure Principle - Page 34
🕑 Added 2017-10-22 19:34:16 +0000 UTC The background in panel 2 took me an entire day to draw. God I hated working on it, haha!I'm updating all four pages of the Interlude this month, so I'll be posting multiple pages a week.
Highres, WIP files and PSDs will be available as part of this month's patreon rewards, depending on your reward tier!

Thanks!

Yeah... detailed backgrounds can be a pain sometimes xD. You did a great job though!

There's a moose, a gazelle, a rabbit and an okapi in the group ;3

There's a goat or sheep in the front left too, right of the bear girl.

In panel 2, there is a rabbit in the center, I believe a giraffe on the right, and some kind of horned species way in the back on the left. I thought the same thing until I really started looking.

Now that I look at it a bit closer...is it just me, or is Olivia the only "prey" species in this whole page?
Foab30
If they hurt our sweet Olivia so help me I will turn into Liam Neeson and cold call them!

'Quickly, Brad. There are thousands of lives at stake.' :P

Originally the raccoon girl in the last panel was a fox. I decided to mix it up a bit and changed her :P

OLIVIA: SECRET ORIGINS

"I'm sure they'll welcome you with open arms." Uh huh, *suuuuuuuuuuure.*
Kadath
Yeah, in my research I found out there's a convent of nuns that have an 'order of the bear' kind of name. I was like 'a bear nun is a brilliant idea' so I put that in there, and gave her those extra long claws as a hint of 'you better be obedient' haha!
Kadath
'Hey Olivia, have you read the secret books stashed behind the encyclopedias in the library?' 'No, what are they?' 'The collected works of the Marquis de Sade.' :X
Kadath
Next week we'll see how the kids treat her. It may make more sense in the context of the full set of pages. Even so I could always go back and spruce up the dialogue a bit.

I think you can still work that in in the page or two.

Grayscale looks just fine. And the background on the second frame turned out to be very clear and detailed. The day was not wasted.)) But that clawed hand on Olivia's shoulder looks ominous.
Stoker Bramwell
"Treat her respectfully, even though she's different. Don't ostracize her for being a freak. Definitely don't mock her weird horns or take her lunch money or give her wedgies. And absolutely DEFINITELY don't get up to any naughty shenanigans which will affect all of your sexual developments from here on out, seeding kinky fetishes in the future. Alright, kids, back to the books!"
Kadath
I think I was trying to get some subtle prejudice in there. The rough draft for the first page had the nuns explicitly showing disdain for her being an oryx.
Kadath
I should maybe rewrite that bit, but the implication is that she's an oryx, so she's rather unique for the area (Ontario, Canada). She's also from Quebec, so she's doubly an outsider for this school.
Silvador
OK, I have to ask the dumb question cos either I've missed something or it hasn't yet been explained... how exactly is Olivia different?
Foab30
Aww, I just want to hug her and make her feel better :(
