Discussion thread for 2Frames Quest.

Been seeing comments on other places saying that discussion threads are pretty "why not?", so I might as well put this here.

I enjoyed it as well!

My only complaint is that it's a liiiittle hard to see Keese whenever he/she is being held by a gargoyle. Maybe next time, you could make it easier tell them apart?

That's cause he's STEALTH!!! =O

Really though, it's mostly cause none of the characters were really planned. I wasn't even planning on Keese befriending more/all the Gargoyles like he did, so it's why all characters were pure black, lol.

For this quest, I tried to only use a black pen on an orange background with sometimes white highlights to make certain poses and details more obvious and only used different dark grays so that Keese didn't completely disappear.

If I use these characters again, I could give the Gargoyles slight hues to differentiate them more.

Anyway, enough sleepy rambling. Glad you enjoyed it!

Random doodle of Lucy. Wanted to see what kind of outfit she might wear if Raven had her change clothes proper. Had a vague version of this outfit in mind for a while for some reason.

In my imagination I was like, Oh this is what Lucy would pick out to wear if the party was heading into a snowy climate region.
Everyone else would be bundled up in layers and it would take all they could to convince her to also put on a thick fur cloak for warmth.
I hope we get to learn more about our new friends and the interesting cultures they come from. We had a chance to ask Lucy about what being Wantagar means, but it kinda got passed over since the focus was on trying to cure her affliction.

Yeah, figuring out how to balance action with character development/lore is something I'll need to figure out. It was easy for me in this chapter to think that things needed to be on all the time, to the point where even once Raven got a journal to read, she only got to it some times after and had to read it while doing other things. I guess in my mind, I was just constantly worried things were too boring if they got slow for too long. Though I guess considering the circumstances, maybe that was natural.

Once I get to continue 2F, there won't be anything absolutely urgent apart from "Let's figure out if we can cure this purple", so maybe I'll have more chances to let the characters breath and hopefully it won't be boring lol.

Currently thinking not running quests makes no sense for me. I stopped to free my time up to do important life stuff, so I wouldn't feel guilty if I ran out of time for quests. But I proved in the last months that I still won't do anything responsible, even if I don't have obligations. Well... self imposed obligations. Though I went and told myself that I'd try to open for commissions at least one batch of 3 per month for the entire year, and that ended up still being a thing that I'd focus more on than doing that other stuff. But that still shows how weak I am as an adult human. Anyway.

At this point, I feel like doing quest can potentially be a thing I should do to keep myself sane. Main thing I need to make sure though, is that I don't do like I did with 2F again. Updates that took way too long. Which I was aware from the start not to do and still went and did it by not completely purpose. But I guess I was stubborn and stuck with it. So whatever I do, if I start again, I have to make sure it's simple enough to, say, update multiple times in one evening.

... And by keeping things simple, I can potentially still do step 1 that I was meaning to do while still updating a quest.

Current potential plan for quests is what I always expected to do. Once I update again, it'll be Shark Quest. A SQ panel always was faster to make than drawing a single frame in 2F was, worst case scenario I would art block hard enough to take longer on a simple panel, but it was still faster than a 2F frame. So SQ can be a test of what happen when the main quest I update is easy to update. I think I mentioned it before, but ultimately, once I update 2F again, I do plan on changing the style. Mostly by not making it lineless. It will kinda look like Shark Quest, but with more colors and etc. But I want to make sure I'm in a good place to update 2F again, so it's more likely that I will focus on Shark Quest and other new quests for a long time before I go back to 2F... if I can resist being away from those characters that long that is.

And for those that likes the lineless style, I want to say that I like it too and am proud (believe it or not) of the Portal Chapter. It's not the best thing ever and it has lots of faults in every aspect, but the full package is so nice to me. I like how it looks and most of what happens and while we only see a glimpse of the characters, I still like to see what we saw of them. To stop the ramble, I mainly want to say that I want to work myself up back to the lineless style. As things around me and my skill get better, I want to get to a point where I can either update in that style faster, or that it would be more a manageable thing for me to update in that style despite that time it takes to make things that way. As crazy as it may sound, I do believe I have it in me. Just not in my current state.

Anyway, I wanted to spew some words cause I've been thinking this for a bit and this evening, I have been starting to see a certain image in my mind of how things are and what I do to myself for the sake of doing things the "right way". I still don't know what the right way is for me, but it's not by finding another way to make me sad. And thinking about not updating quests has been a new source for me.

I still have to think on stuff, but yeah. If I missed something, ask away and I'll try to address it and stuff.

Yay, more quests.

You'll get better at being responsible with practice.

>>129677
Hey! Great to hear you're gonna start questing again! But no matter what, you do you to find a rhythm that feels right and works for your real life schedule.

As for responsibility, once you find a good routine to get back into and stick with it, then it just becomes practice until its second nature. Try to recognize bad habits and break them before it becomes too hard. But remember you're only beholden to yourself, so only prioritize what you think feels right for you.

I might be a silent reader for SQ, but I am excited to see where you go next on your projects. 2 Frames was my jam and short one offs like Batty Quest are pure delight!

With quests on the mind again, here's Ava!

Was thinking about how I'd get rid of the idea that my 2F character are cartoon-y enough to not have to cover themselves as much. Ava being one of the offenders with this, this is the kind of tight shorts I've been thinking of giving her for a while. So, here's a doodle showing it. Weird to do for a character we might not see for a while if ever!, but yeah I do like doodling her sometimes. I also tried to make her face a bit more barn owl-y.

Nothing new, but I drew Raven and Lucy for a new Patreon Banner a while ago. But since I'm not doing much with it in the way of not advertising about it at all, I wanted to show these 2 anyway. I do like how they came out for the most part.

While I'm here, I do want to mention to all of you that this update took long mostly cause I somehow didn't really have a ton of opportunities to actually work on this. I blame my party neighbors that made sure I was too tired most weekends.

While your drawing is some what cute that may be because you didn't draw it with its nightmare teeth.

And speaking of things that are nightmarish in nature did you know that Anglerfish reproduce with the male attaching itself to the much larger female and slowly merging and being absorbed by her until the are little more then just testicles that she can pull sperm from as she needs?

>>130324
Making this, I was just imagining her practicing/ messing around with the guitar as she's not in a band yet. So it would probably mostly be instrumentals. And for genres, I'd just make her play songs I like, lol. Non-scream metal, punk rock, classic rock, maybe some indie sounding stuff occasionally... video games music, lol.

>>130327
I did try to make it's teeth crazy, but it was tough with the binary pen and that resolution.

Also yeah, people really liked to point those out in the thread itself. Fitting for deep sea creatures I guess, since they have to be bonkers in real life.

This is pretty great, also modern Lucy shredding on a guitar is also giving me some NITW feels and that's a good bonus.
>>130329
If she was in a band though with our usual pals, Raven would probably be vocals, but would Emerald be percussions or synths?

Theremin. Duh.

>>130451
Rip might be better for percussion. Mostly cause it's slightly funny to me that sneaky silent guy would be the one that makes noise by beating the crap out of an instrument in modern times. But he'd still be silent socially.

>>130453
Lol maybe. But I could also see her doing any extra instruments too. In a, good enough at most instruments, not a master of anything kind of way. So any genre the band might tackle, she'd handle whatever instrument need to be played at the time... well one for a song that the others can't cover.

She can handle the Synth for some stuff and the Theremin could be one of those things for the Halloween album they'd do. =P

Honestly, I liked Shark Quest better when we only needed to worry about which one of our friends we wanted to date and eventually choose one of them to be our mate.

It stopped being fun when all of the kidnapping merfolk showed up. I wish we could just go back to dating.
>>
No. 132145 ID: ea81d3

>>132138
Yeah the problem right now is that I made the mistake to take 2 suggestions in that one first post when I guess I should have just picked one, but back then I also was not planning to have it run that long, it was meant to be a week and that's it, but people wanted me to do more, so then I continued it, but I already planted the seeds of the fin soup so I kinda had to follow that through. Then I started updating the quest only once a month, which made it real hard for me to have a grasp on how things were going so much so that I reveal certain things earlier than I originally planned.

I was debating saying this out loud, but I might as well say so since I do know that the people that want a date quest essentially lost that: My current plan is/was to fast-track a resolution for the fin soup thing, and then transition to dating again with no distractions... Though that is potentially being delayed with people wanting to hang out now, so I dunno. At this point it might be apt to embrace the ridiculousness and have Ammy call Finn right away like "Wow I was way more ready with my preparation than I originally thought." Ammy preparing probably came from an old thing I wanted to do which was inspired by Persona 4 with the whole, date fight date fight thing they are doing, but they planned it out better and are smarter and etc. and it's a game and etc.

Like literally, with how heavy people seems to take the fin stuff, I practically am planning to solve it by letting people defeat a villain (that also has been seeded already) within the next outing. Like, narratively , I'm making Finn solve all that stuff within 2 days.

I know some would like me to just make Finn ask the cops and it would all be fixed magically, but I dunno, I guess I'm not about that. Heck, I could reboot it but I don't want to do that either. (Instead of rebooting, I'd rather just cancel it and go back to 2Frames)

So I dunno, I'm recovering from being sick right now, but I'll think about what to do going forward. I guess I'm also thinking of the characters that are either introduced or going to be introduced based on certain things (I might have given the impression I wanted no one to go to the cops, whoops) so maybe that's why I don't want to skimp too hard on that side of it, cause once it's resolved, then a lot of characters will relax more and I dunno. We'll see. I'm still thinking of trying to make it so that once Shark Quest has a 3rd part (assuming it survives that long), it'll be all dating going forward, but it's also hard to know who cares about what. I like Shelly, but does anyone else do? I have no idea.
