Comic #19: Quest Giver (Patreon)

Originally published: Feb 11, 2006

This is one of my all time favorites. When Blizzard announced a comic contest in April of 2006, I re-drew this one for submission. It ended up with an honorable mention. I later submitted #47 for a later contest which won.

Here's the redrawing in April of 2006:

I remember trying really hard when re-drawing the comic not to alter the faces too much. As I knew that a lot of the humor came from their simplistic faces and expressions.

The difference in style between February and April was really more about effort than it was a growth in skill. Keep in mind that the first 30 comics were all drawn in a month's time. I was just churning them out for guildies mostly, and for fun. They were quick and easy to draw, and I didn't worry too much about the humor or quality.

I really didn't make a schedule at the start, I just drew when I felt like it. By the time April rolled around, I was drawing them closer to once a week.
