New Pages (Patreon)

READ! 

The boy strangling Tera from behind, a "sleep hold" like he knows what he's doing, I can't, lol!

If you remember, last time I told you Tera would get hurt 3 more times: The boy pulls his pubic hair, that makes 1. He strangles him, that's 2.  The 3rd one will be in the next update then! And that's the worst ! But I'm happy with that second one cause I was concerned I hadn't shown enough of the boy's ability to stand up for himself and that he could fight Black Death. Now I think it's credible! Of course we're not talking about physical strength but about willpower. 

In the first pages the Boy realizes Tera has scars on his body (bruises and cuts from fighting with other gangs) Because the Boy puts it in context (Tera being a thug) he understands that all these scars tell the story of who he is, and that he probably went through a lot. It seems impressive to him especially since he's just a teen.

I think the Boy allows himself to stares at Tera's body cause Tera can't see him at that moment. So the "whenever you want" is not an invitation to touch him lol, it's that Tera is waiting for the boy to help with the shirt.  

When Tera says "where is the other half of the shirt?" basically he was supposed to flex his pecs, not to show off but to lighten the mood, to clown around. And the boy would have replied "omg stop that." That's why on the third picture Tera's pecs are in high definition (you can even guess the nipples stretching the fabric lol!) But there was no way for me to actually show a flex like that?? I was worried you don't get it so I just went for the current scene.

When I was a teenager, I read in an interview that most of the time mangakas and their assistants were rushing the pages because they were asked to produce a lot, quickly. And I thought "what a shame! That means we don't even get the best of them in the end because of that!" 

And now I'm just doing the same, there's always so much that I would like to fix/redraw and I can't cause I'm running out of time; I can feel it could look better. So I'm sorry about that.
