>>184 this and another one are inked, but currently i dont have a scanner at home. I also have one sketch ready to be inked. I think I will do a bunch or finish all of the pieces I want to do and I will post them here. Then I will make the layout for the pages to make them look fancy (probably will be digital). The pieces I want to do are the following: * A bunch more showing the main ethnicities of the 4 factions * A map that shows the political reality and geography during the time of the events * Some misc like animals/minor ethnicities/magic/etc * Important characters * 4 pieces portraying the key events (i.e. 4 chapters, each from the perspective of one of the 4 major factions) Not sure if i've said it, but morgs, ovhcars, yakovites etc are all supposed to be human ethnicities. In this world the limits of diverseness are broader and thus there are ontological morgs that do have exceptionally large lower teeth or ovchars with physical characteristics that are analogical to that of sheep. HOWEVER, whether or not an ovchar actually has a face of a sheep or the drawings are a result of portraying colorful language in the source text (will get to that in a bit) and thus in reality an individual looks like a human with curly hair/fur, something that looks like horns (maybe a part of their dress code, not a genetic mutation) and maybe a little hint of sheep facial characteristics IS SOMETIMES UP TO QUESTION. This also implies to some other elements like animals. As for the text itself, its a commentary of a text that tries to gather and present historical sources for an event. Basically a guy talks about/translates the work of another guy, who tries to tell the story of an older event. I bit similar to how Tolken did it. So we have: 1. The translator, a soyantist who lives in "the current times" 2. The source gatherer, a monk who refers to himself as "the Hinny" and lived a couple of centuries ago 3. The sources, which are tales, first-hand writings, epics, songs etc. some lost to time and found in the Hinny's work. Due to changes in the world, some of Hinny's writings are seen as overexagurations, fake or fictional by some (even if the monk and his sources treat a majority of the information as facts). The translator tries to be as "neutral" as possible, when giving a commentary.
