Shard Dust 2: January 15, 2015
Page 2 of 2. I left out Velvy’s disease bubbles this time to see if it made the page more clear. Here’s the dialogue written out:
Velvy: Oh, don’t be mad! I don’t think Jack knows how to make friends very well.
Humpty: Funny. I thought we WERE friends.
Velvy: Um… I’m pretty sure you still are. Want me to go ask him?
Velvy: Um… Humpty?
Humpty: *zzzzZZZZzz*
Velvy: I thought he said he doesn’t sleep…
Humpty: *zzzZzZzz*
Humpty: I don’t.
Velvy: ?
Humpty: *zzzzz…*
Humpty: But sometimes, ever since getting a shard, my body makes funny noises.
Humpty: I used to think it meant I was hungry but I don’t eat.
Velvy: Me either! We’re a lot alike!
Humpty: Heh.
Bonding miment between the two of them. It seems that they’re becoming fast friends despite the flaws in their shards.
Marcus> Yup.
If you all were wondering, the main reason I want to start doing Shard Dust is so that I can get more content to you guys. Each strip takes me at least 3-4 hours to complete. These “dusts” take at most 45 minutes so I can do more of them. I’d like to do one a week if the ideas keep coming, or at least try to keep up with a sketch or two of extra content. I am at present trying to get at least a week ahead on strips so that I have a buffer for upcoming holiday seasons and not have a delay in strip runs.
Marcus> Oh, and their shards aren’t flawed. It’s just part of who they are and what abilities they gained.
The zombie and the construct make good friends. :D
And how! *g*
