[Spice- Full Sequence] Cliff x Father Eugene comic -Walk the Night (Patreon)

Here's the whole comic in one place! Thank you for enjoying it and commenting on each short update, it's been really lovely, and also meant I could work on this properly instead of trying to get it done in the background!

Because it's all pretty much in Eugene's house, and also half smut, I don't have anything to say on the research front, but I have put together my references:

I don't use refs for most things, but sometimes something is just bugging me, if I can't get it within a few tries I usually go and get a ref. For those gate falling poses I knew I'd need them beforehand lol.

Sometimes you start work and it's like the hand to brain connection is just not there that day and at first everything comes out like gloop.

I put a lot more detail into this thumbnail and sketch (usually I don't sketch) because I knew it'd be a hard one to make up on the fly! Same with the kissing and the other BJ pages... tricky.

I honestly don't know how to describe how I go from script to thumbnail when there's so little dialogue or direction. I guess I have a kind of floaty visual animation in my head and I choose frames to pin down? Kinda? It's not super visual, it's more vibey, and often my brain forgets you can't see two things at once, or that bodies don't work that way, but it's an essence u know. [Like in this one I had him jacking cliff off and also sniffing close with his head right there...but I realised he'd be hitting himself in the face with his hand...oop]

I made a scrappy paper model of the room right at the very end, kind of on a whim, I just did the walls at first to be like. which way would the lines go in perspective?? And then I was like ough I could add a little tv...

I've bought some foamboard to hopefully make more traditional model rooms (more stable ones lol) because honestly this was faster and easier than trying to work out 3D for me. I did make a dodgy 3D model earlier in the process, but it just felt Off when I used it!

It's so hard to explain, the first one is using 3D and it just feels Wrong somehow. Maybe it's because it's too stiff and boxy? Maybe things are too big, or too small, Maybe it's just me!
The last one was done without a model and I don't even think it's technically better, the angle is less exciting, but I still much preferred it!

A little about the kiss background, I'm honestly still not sure and might go back, but it was sooo much work getting it to flow around them correctly lol!

One last reference because it's always funny to pretend there's someone else there when I'm trying to take pictures (my phone is precariously balanced on the cat tree).
