This comic follows on from the Previous comic which will almost certainly provide context.

Just enthralled. Completely spellbound. Beguiled, charmed, under your spell.

    Yep.

    As best I can find, rooting through old Forgotten Realms lore, the colours of the Tymoran church are normally blue and silver.

    For my comics, I made the Tower of Luck use green as it’s main colour for stuff, to mimic the green baize of gambling tables. Gold accents to symbolize wealth - since the Tower of Luck is much more focused on luck and gambling than the good fortune and karma focus that the rest of the faith normally has. It’s my general intention to slip gambling references and symbology into the church whenever the characters are there.

            Yes. One of the benefits of this is that it makes my visual style rather unique - I often get asked what digital brushes I’m using to get these pencil textures, and the answer is “pencils.” One of the downsides is it means it’s quite slow to make new pictures.

            I used to hand-letter, but lettering is a surprisingly slow and taxing job, and I found myself spending a lot of time touching it up digitally, so now I use a font I made from my own handwriting.

            Here’s an image showing many of the physical media brands and tools I use. Notes:

            • The primary pigment liner width I use is 0.2, I use the 0.05 for very fine lines sometimes.
            • I have replaced the pentel p203 pencil with a Spoke-4-Titanium, although the Spoke pencil still uses a P203 mechanism

            Here’s a step-by-step showing how it looks as I go

            And, here’s a photo of the pencilwork for this specific comic :D
