Satyr x Swordsman Pg 3-4
🕑 Added 2025-04-30 00:12:04 +0000 UTCHappy Tuesday, everyone! Here's a little more progress with these two. They're so hopelessly passionate.
Pages have WIP color as is my usual process because I'm noncommittal about these things :3
Art Talk:
I'm nonstop rewriting dialog between these two but at least I'm starting to feel like I know how to draw them a little bit better. I haven't had to adjust to a new character design in some while but one thing I'm trying to embrace is a kind of "cartoon logic" to the drawings, where characters are made up of a certain assortment of lines every single time (think Dagwood's hair or Garfield).
I know that this kind of drawing shorthand is the result of practicing drawing the same character an incredible amount of times, but I'm hoping to learn to do it more intentionally so I can draw characters more on model from the start. This is all very vague but I guess what I mean is that perhaps the Faun will always have a certain number of lines on her ear tufts, or Hero's hair will start to become more consistent.
These are the kinds of ambitious thoughts I fixate on at the beginning of a project and then forget about halfway through, though, so we'll see. Happy Tuesday!

Hehehe I like that read of it :3 I feel like those silly expressions are what keep me anchored in the "not taking things too seriously" realm that I need to be in to avoid perfectionism, so I'm glad they feel like they fit :D
Winton Kidd

Hehe so she can't be *conquered*, and she's one mighty cute *beast* I am enclined to think a sincere oath of loyalty to her could qualify as fate-compliant 🤭

Cute flirting 🥰🥹🥵

Right, she’s so adorable 🥰
ValeRipley
Heck yeah 🧡🧡🧡 also, I think there may be a word missing in the second speech bubble of page 3? “…that keeps you from loving (me?)”
Azou
delicious repartee

Meg's "I won't say I'm in love" starts playing in the background (from Disney's Hercules). Ugh they're so cute, I'm already invested! Can't wait for more, Winton!!

I agree 100% with your comment! I thought the exact same things while reading these pages. Personally I also love that the faun has such strong legs. In my opinion it never makes sense when characters with legs like hers have legs as thin as matches so I'm happy to see her having actually functioning goat legs 💕 Will they get names at some point? Or do you want to keep them as Faun and Hero?

They're so besotted with each other 🥰 silly fools I gotta say I'm really enjoying the Swordsman's build. His physique looks functional and it's refreshing to see a muscular body that isn't dehydrated like a raisin. His bulge is big, his biceps are big and the smoother curve of his thigh & calf are so sexy. The satyr's (for lack of a better term) nip slips are also very cute. To see the little ``` marks where her areola starts... 😍 Bodies are beautiful!! The bodies you draw are very beautiful!! The curves of your line work are so beautiful. Can't wait for more ♥️

sounds like he's forfeiting his life to an unconquerable little satyr Also as much as i like the fluffy and elegant art, i always appreciate the little panels like on page 4 with the >=< expression
Ethan
Adorable. Loving this so far
Capricious
