One downside to the
otherwise enjoyable experience of drawing lots of stuff for Tales of
Knights and Nitwits is that it’s occupied all my time available for
drawing. I’m still working on Crown of Blood, the final part of The
Bloody Crown Trilogy, and wanted to draw a map for it. A little time
off from the comic was therefore needed.
Here’s the map of
Falshire, the north-west corner of Denland, where many things occur
in the final part of the trilogy. It’s not perfect but I’m
broadly happy with how it’s turned out. That said, I still need to
assess how it will appear on a Kindle, which is the single most
important question.
Ages ago I had guides
to several Final Fantasy videogames. Due to lack of space, and also
the rarity of me going back to replay them (I am a hoarder, still
have games dating back to Sonic the Hedgehog), I got rid of them all
some time ago. However, I did find a small (maybe an inch, half an
inch, something like that) depiction of Vivi, from FFIX, in that
game’s manual. Given the diminutive nature of the reference
material, I’m quite pleased with how the drawing eventually turned
out. The trousers could be better, but they’re somewhat tricky.
[There was something
else I meant to add here but I have forgotten what it was. I am quite
certain, however, that it was witty and insightful].
The next episode of Knights and Nitwits will hopefully be up next week.
