More Emp/Spooky/smilodon pages (plus all roughs) from EMPOWERED vol.12! (Patreon)

Following up from the last bunch of Empowered vol.12 pages I posted here last month, enjoy a few more pages of Spooky discussing Emp's bondage curse, whilst so far notably failing to mention exactly who cursed her. (Also, I've attached pretty much every work-stage rough for each finished page.)

Also, enjoy the big cat's whiskers and loose strands of Emp's hair, which were inked on a separate overlay then inverted to white in Photoshop, a technique I've only now started using but really wish I'd thought of deploying before. (For the record, this "white-line overlay" concept has been possible long before Photoshop, as I think an issue of my second Dirty Pair miniseries features a text-based iteration of the technique.)

To be honest, as an artist I'm definitely getting sick of depicting this Very Significant Conversation, which will go on for at least another 10 or 15 pages. I'm probably going to put this scene on pause while I try to figure out another Empowered vol.12 scene or story that would interest me more.

While I'd like to do more commentary on these pages, time is short, so I'll have to post this scene without further blithering from yours truly.

Tomorrow on this here Patreon: Your weekly dose of damsel-in-distress content (for the $5 and higher tiers) takes a break from commissioned comic pages to show some vintage con sketches with a DiD orientation. I'm doubling up on the vintage con sketch posting this week, as Friday's post will likely be another set of non-damsel-y commissions from the days of yore.
