-It's only a nightmare- [Comic, huge files warning + "Gore" warning]

Seele's picture
This is also posted on my DA, but I was told I should post it here too. Or well I questioned it, and people said "yes." Well if anyone thinks I should take it down, please tell me! (Sounds like I'm about to do some crime.)
A while ago I had the idea of making short "nightmare" comics about my deer. They'd dream about a specific event that changed their life in some way. (Apparantly only negative experiences lol.) I was working on the rest, for which I lost inspiration, but really wanted to do Poltergeist's. The fourth page is a bit gorish, I'm afraid. I did have fun trying out such thing, but I'll say beforehand: It's her nightmare, a dream, Wudiin's actually really handsome.

ALRIGHT I'LL JUST SUBMIT IT ARGK *presses button*

Wow, that´s awesome. D= I

Wow, that´s awesome. D= I really love how you did their expressions and panels and... kind of everything. Beautifully pictured dream-scene. Poor Wudiin... but atleast the last panel was kind of a happy ending...? The part with fish eating his body is quite powerful in meaning, but I don´t think its that "gory"... or it could just be that I have quite a bit tolerance for such. ^^;
You have done more of these? Show them...? *whines*

Well, you wouldn't have a nightmare about a good experience. X3

Wow, because of the awesomeness I read it over like.. four times. And it's beautiful, I never knew you did comics so well! The water looks pretty realistic, very well done.

Poor Polt, the bad things always seem to happen to her...

Ravey:
Nuuuh don't have sad D8 *Gives tissue* But thanks love <3.

Spyrre:
Thank you! I'm glad to recieve such kind words XD And yep, it is kind-of a happy ending. Ofcourse, Wud's gone and that won't be changed, but she realises she's not alone. Nah, well, I don't think it is either. I just worry for people with different opinions XD It was really interesting to draw though. And no ;_;'.. X"D My biggest issue is colouring. I draw/sketch a lot, but I seem to not find the time to colour stuff. This method was kinda easy though..

Flyra:
I'll try, if you do too ;D.. XDD I always have comics floating through my head, but only rarely is it so strong I actually draw them out.

Zerg:
*Gave up on typing your name* But thank you XDDDD

Meadow: I'm glad you think so<3 I had to borrow Iendoe for a bit XDD

Paz:
Ah, bittersweet, that's a nice word for it~ And yeah;x X"D But maybe I could make positive "dreams" too. Negativity just seems to have such a bigger.. Attraction. I normally am a bit of a "horror" artist though. Lol.

Cata:
Don't worry <3 He didn't leave her mind. Thanks XDD Don't stare too long! It might have a negative influence on your eyesight ;x
(That's not totally a lie. Staring to a screen IS, right? X"D)

Spirituelle:
Aw thanks love <3 nothing compaired to your awesome writings though. (I read everything teeheee.) Thanks, glad you like that panel! My boyfriend thought I went lazy on it. Urffkk.

Fenqua:
You just didn't get it. XDD LOL jk ;x thank you And I don't, really. D8'. I need to practice drawing em more though, I might have to do so later on in life too XDD The water looks realistic? I had such a hard time on that, tried 3 different styles before giving up.

Ah, well, she has a lotta positive stuff too~. Atleast she had the luck to have such a wonderful guy at her side <3

Shim:
I think you did, but thanks anyway XD *Hugsquish* And pft, I don't want you to cry, so I won't let youuuu aaaahahaha. Well, thanks, I'm glad. <3

Yeah, I'm blond, what did you

Yeah, I'm blond, what did you expect? Eye

You're welcome! And you're right about Polt. Wudiin is/was a white prince without a horse. <3
By the way, I happened to notice some sort of green 'gem' on her body in the last picture. I keep wondering what it is, so I'll just ask. What is it? XD

Wudiin gave her an emerald as a gift once XD I let her wear it around her neck. I think I somewhere read/got told it means something as eternal love? It did have to do with love XDD
Fenqua's picture

Like this? "The emerald is

Like this?

"The emerald is the sacred stone of the goddess Venus. It was thought to preserve love. The emerald has long been the symbol of hope. It is considered by many to be the stone of prophecy. For some the emerald acts as a tranquilizer for a troubled mind. The emerald is said to bring the wearer reason and wisdom. The strongest time for the powers of the emerald is said to be spring.

Lucky for love, give your lover an emerald to stay faithful."

Which is a beautiful meaning! I wonder where he found it though ;D

Ahyeah! I think I read that before. Well, I think I did saw you comment on Shim's story's about him XDD And it's mentioned in one of em! So, I know. Now you go look. Ahaha.

Huh, I didn't know about the emerald. If Polt wears it all the time, Oisín should probably notice it and ask about it one of these days. >.>

You know when I first saw

You know when I first saw this I almost thought Nightmare himself had something to do with it all together XD Since it's kind of a thing that his Smoke (If inhaled) would attack and corrupt to such an extent.

I adore this comic, despite all of it it's very well done Seele! And the fish, as it's been said it's not that 'gory' but then again you never know. There's not much blood in it so I think it's good enough :3 Very lovely piece, I hope to see more comics though Laughing out loud You do a WONDERFUL job on them!

Shim:
FFF. XD You know, I love re-reading his story and such. I still got that index-page at my favourites.

Flyra:
Heheh. My butt is lazy too, so I guess if we both don't do anything, it'll be fine! *SHOT*

Paz:
She does actually XD I've been drawing it in her latest eh, well drawings. I just never show all my art ;_;'... I think the latest of hers is at.. My DA. With Ravenflight. Ohwait, I made one after that with Corvus too. And she wears it at both pictures XDD

Toxic:
Really? That does sound really cool <3 Polt should see him once. AWW I make my deer suffer.
And yap, one never knows. I am a cautious person XDD Aw thanks, I'd love to try and make more. More eh, "detailed" ones too. I feel like I need to search for a "style" that fits it best. But haven't found it yet.

What happened....this is so

What happened....this is so sad...it truly tugged my heartstrings. Bravo!

Oddly enough I have the same thing when it comes to my characters, I always adore making them suffer to an extent XD It's amusing to no end. Nightmare's currently down for a bit but Polt is welcome to wander by him should she desire, though his smoke is dried out for now since he's not in a raging fit :3

I'll admit, if you're not used to drawing a 'gore' image things are far harder than it seems. But once you get into the details, and get into it all of the muscles and flow seem to work just right. I do a lot of skinless monsters at times so it's rather fun doing all that detail ;3

Lustful: Ah, well, the comic

Lustful:
Ah, well, the comic is about Polt's nightmare. It's about an event that took place a loong time ago XD Her love Wudiin committed suicide back then, since he was in heavy pain. Go read his story 8DDD

Toxic:
How cruel are we XDD Well, I never really let em suffer on purpose. I think. Nooo.. Maybeeee.
Heheh, oh I love drawing gore. Never post any of it, though. Next to my TEF and anthro art, I design a lotta monsters XDD

Rouda:
*Resurrects you* I don't want to be a murdererr! But thank you, I am flattered XDD

For me, there's just something about a tormented character that really makes me smile and giggle. Sometimes it gives them a lot of personality and gives them something to work with in terms of pictures and such :3 It makes them flow a lot better for me (Such as Nightmare for instance) and I can get into them more than I could a normal character that has a kinda normal past.

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! I WANNA SEE DA MONSTERS THOUGH! *clings onto Seele!*
