Pass Her By (Patreon)

A well meaning but talkative guy in a night club has an unusual person pass by him, or seemingly, to pass HER by.

EDIT: V2 is live! I figured out how to get the effects working without completely breaking everything else around it. As usual, keeping the originals as well as the new version in there, so no loss if the new one doesn't hit. I'll actually 'bump' this post since the new version is pretty significant change to the style. If you want to comment on the new version and have commented before, be sure to start a new comment chain instead of replying to the first btw, I only get notifications for new comments, not replys. For some reason? So I might miss a new comment otherwise. Everything else in the post is as was at first posting. :)

Had a bit of an idea for this one, as you might have seen. :)

This has a lot of extras since I couldn't quite get the looks I wanted effect wise. Main version has whatever worked, while the second version is more simple and lets you see things better. Also lineart because... I had it available so why not? As you can see, the table was a later addition, but was always intended to be there, so it looks a bit wonky without it there. Also some dubious other stuff in there since I couldn't get the look quite right, this is an angle I'm not used to doing. ^^;

I feel like this one works better with the panel to panel shifting then full sequence, so try that out if the sequence doesn't feel quite right?

I would have added shading to this, but after wrestling with drawing hands, tweaking parts that looked wrong and also trying to get the passerby to look about how I wanted, it ran the time out by quite a bit. A lot of little details in there though, so maybe that makes up for it? :)

One of those details is actually that in the simple version, you might notice that the highlights aren't in the hair of the last panel. This is because that's part of the passerby layers. Specifically, the highlights is actually the face now 'imprinted' onto the hair, just with the various parts moved to fit the right spots. Actually an accident that the face was left on for the final panel at one point and I liked the look so much a edited it to line up with the hair better. :)

The rest of the week is going to be quite brutal for work sadly, which will leave me with very little time to do the next exclusive night and then, actually just no time at all to make anything on the exclusive after. So tomorrow, I have to make two entire exclusives just to be able to post anything on those days. So, uh, they might end up a bit simple. ^^;

Originally I was going to get the WiP's that are in the waiting done up this week, but ended up with lack of sleep and had to do stuff as well, and now the work week will be very demanding, so I have to use the time i have just to fill in those days. So, uh, yeah. Not quite yet.

Anywho, enjoy! :)
