We're here. My nightmare. Uhh ahrghh erhh.

You know when you have a couple of characters you just REALLY want to include in your story, but can't really find a proper place for them? You realize, that the story works well without them, and they'd end up being just way too much extra work without real payoff? Well.

This next scene was pretty much unnecessary pile of work that I suffered with for nothing. You see, these two woodlanders were tuned those two characters I really wanted to include in my story but decided to finally drop them AFTER drawing this whole scene. It might not look like much but I pretty much had all the layers flattened with the lineart/colors/effects, so it was a nightmare to fix. I also had to model 3D antlers for the stag raaah!

This was supposed to be their intro, so I gave them more screentime than I would've for these two fillers. So in the end this might look a little excessive, I don't know. I had to adjust the whole new chapter because of these two. Not to say it's a change for worse at all - it ended up giving it a little more depth - but I'm still  mad. I really loved those characters.

I will post the original pages underneath the fixed ones.

These are Riegel and Gousla. Riegel was the first antlerless stag to appear.

Here's another post about them. 

The scarred stag is first posted about here.
