With so many monsters out there, it’s hard to remember what works for which ones.
Can’t blame poor Gloria for getting confused.
If it wasn’t obvious, I’ve been experimenting with makiTikToktok videos. They’re a lot harder than they look. Especially lipsyncs.
You have to remember to keep pace with the timing, look like you’re the one talking, to not just stand in the frame, don’t watch yourself moving around, and make sure to move/use any props you’re using!
It’s hard and there are more moving parts than you think there are.
(This character is named “Gloria Ottulie” by the way! She’s a Great Mountain Harpy and a Fighter.)
Doing some experimenting, but here are the main characters of the comic that I’ve been working on. The title of the comic is still in progress but, for now, I’ve been calling it “Paranatual Case Files”.
Neil Setter, a magical, not-as-human-as-he-looks person who’s stumbled into something far bigger than he’d ever imagined, and Jean Sycamore, a Secret Agent with Psychic powers who’s just doing his job and is blissfully unaware of how big his world actually is.

I was originally going to theme the colors of Neil’s clothes after the Asexual Flag, but it was only after I finished coloring him that I realized his clothes matched the Aromantic flag instead. Whoops! So I’ll probably go back at some point and either turn his vest purple (to finally let him match the Ase flag) or change his pants blue and leave the flag theming behind entirely.
I was also trying to do one of those see-through windows artists sometimes do to a character’s clothing to show something that the character tries to keep hidden, so I could show off Neil’s back. (Which is covered in birch tree bark.) Not sure how good it looks, or how well I pulled it off, but that’s what I was trying to do.
Jean came out perfect, though the scar by the part in his hair gave me some trouble when I did it.
