To a Stranger: Prologue & 1-5

This comic is based on a true story--about how a lonely waitress by day and artist by night crosses paths with the man who stood up for her when they were children.

This comic does not have a set update schedule. I will draw pages as time allows. Please enjoy!

okay the new tntl musical 2 is just. fucking excellent from start to finish. nonstop bangers, wildly funny, everyone is having a blast while being Very Talented. my only thought after finishing it is, as angela puts it:

[bobacupcake]

Not sure if it is anything special but I love love the style of journey and sky children of the light, do they use any shaders in specific?

did a pretty deep dive into the sparkly sand of journey but hooo boy sky children of the light

this is my shader white whale . some day i want to know how they do this. holding out for their incredibly talented graphics engineer john edwards to do a gdc talk or something on them like he did for the sand in journey. this game runs on phones!!!! its a mobile game!!!!!!!!

all i know is that journey uses something called "blobs" to do the terrain and clouds , which i imagine is some kind of SDF/voxel rendering, meaning instead of making a sphere out of triangles/quads like most games do, they would just say "hey, put a sphere here" and it is a perfect sphere because you can use math to find where the sphere starts/stops.. like here's a simplified example in 2d, where the left is what most render engines do building things out of triangles/quads (or in this case lines), and right, what sdf engines do

so anyways having these things be SDF lets you do a ton of stuff you wouldnt be able to do like smooth noise displacement and fancy lighting calculations (though i imagine a lot of the lighting is baked ahead of time. this game runs on a phone !!!!! but also this game has a day/night/weather cycle so actually it might be realtime ?!?) if it is run ahead of time the lighting setup is probably run in a very similar way to how Actual clouds are rendered and mapped to the clouds in some way (through a texture? through the vertex color? this thing is a SDF does it even have vertex colors? maybe a point cloud generated from the SDF?) and if its realtime. then they either found a very fast way to do that lighting calculation with the SDFs or they found something that approximates it very well

and then for the surface of the clouds.. my best guesses is they are using a noise to wiggle around the surface of the SDF in a way that makes it look all fluffy and cloudy, or they are using some kind of particle system to add extra little bits of SDF to the surface of the clouds. or both!!! maybe they do one for close-up and one for far.. i dont know!!! i want to learn so bad though. it is such a pretty game

Headcanon time:

Phoenix is terrible at self care, we all know this. But they know they’re bad about it, so they have this “if I acknowledge it’s bad, it’s fine!” Mentality.

They figure if they say “I need to cry, I know I need to cry, but I need a window of time for me to just feel awful for a few days and recover. When I have 3-5 days off, I can have a good meltdown, and it’ll all be fine!”

But whenever they’re off they wanna enjoy themselves…

Phoenix has been rescheduling their meltdown for years.

Bandit, can't you see she's trying to work? Lineart by @knucklebl4ster, colours by me.

Adalhard Hair

I was searching for a hair like this, but the only one I found that was even remotely similar wasn't to my liking. And thus, this hair was born.

Scalp texture from @simandy's Basics set here, though I did tweak it + handpainted the nape myself.
