Oh yes, folks, your eyes do NOT deceive you! Remember, at the beginning of Book One, Sapphira was not yet plus-sized…but she wasn't this thin, either! So, 2.5 years ago, Phira was in fact skinnier than her mom.
I enjoyed doing this page. It really ties in well to the roots of the comic as well as the current story. This is the first of a two-page scene that contrasts Brielle's relationship with her sister, Sapphira, to her relationship with her friend, Carolyn. It's a pretty stark difference. We also see that Crystal was the inspiration for Phira starting her own jewelry business in Canada. Interesting, eh?
Okay, replies to comments:
TitanOne: I'm glad you liked the way I drew them. I used a photo reference for that last frame. I liked how it turned out, too.
trevoramueller: Heh! I hope you (and everyone) had a very Happy New Year!
Rockster1039: Thanks for the 5!
blntmaker: It's a t-shirt for a fictitious UK band named "Mere Mortals." It's also a reflection of Carolyn's vulnerability throughout this story. Thanks for the compliments.
JustNoPoint: Pro, huh? The Dynamic Duo probably will get together more often. Brielle's going to need her friend very soon! Actually, the shirt was a challenge but not particularly annoying. :)
usedbooks: It's what I should do more of… XD
Please check out the new DD community project called Off Hours. How often do you get to see some of the webcomic "actors" from Due East, Nadya, Purgatory Tower, Better Luck Next Time, Used Books, The Devon Legacy, Wolf and Aurora of the High Seas off the set of their "shows?"
