Some girly talk and bonding And a ruh-roh towards the end ;D I very much enjoyed working on this page (albeit i'm eager for some lighter shading, haha) and hope you like it too! Sorry about delays in everything, first I had visits, then a trip, and then I went some places nearby. it'sstillniceandwarmandmysummerissoshort

Can you guess who Kimche is? ^^ it's maybe a strange moment to name-drop her, but figured it would be easy to tell. 

Also, feedback question: in the second panel, Awka originally said "you don't even know us yet" (remember Acol's introduction on page 51 ). But, in the end I went for "you still carry the scent of far away", which I liked better. Does it sound too dumb, or cheesy? Sometimes I'm unsure about how to write stuff: I'm afraid of being redundant, but I'm also afraid of being unclear and sometimes I have no idea of how to reach a middle ground. So please, feel free tell me to change it!! (or make a suggestion for something tat sounds better!   )

I have a LOT of fanart to feature from the couple of months I had no Core!! And I intend to feature them all, 'cause I love them all. However, I have limitation on the number of Thumbnails I can add so I figured I'd go somewhat thematic.
Featuring in this page, Awka's huemul gang!

Future ones will be group pics, red deer, awka herself and others!

The environment, lighting and atmosphere on this page is so beautiful, Agu!!!! I love the mixture of blue-green with the more golden colors of autumn. It gives the feeling of cold and yet not quite winter. Absolutely perfect x)

I really dig this new approach of your coloring method these pass few pages, the lighting and the ambient looks fitting to the background, and sometimes the situation itself. ^^  This page is beautifully well done, and the interaction between these two are quite natural and playful, though I never actually know how girls actually bond with each other, this looks kinda right? XD Also, the water on this page looks really nice, I like it. <3

About the phrase Awka said over there, I was honestly lost at first, but then I understand what you mean when I read the description, and I think it's not dumb at all, similar to Watershed Down novel, the rabbits call food from the farm Flayrah instead of just food. I can't see why you can't use a few deer languages you made up. But for it to work it needs to be use quite regularly or have more specific words that both of the species use differently, I think that might even filled your world with more lore and characters for that. Wish you luck!

Thank you a ton for such nice words, Slok! I really loved working on this page, and i'm a fan of girly moments in general ^^

As for the words, I'm not inventing a language for deer as that would've needed to be introduced already, but I like to include some "deer conversation", wityh references to the sense of smell, which is very acute in them. I think i have  afew before this! regardless, I will try to re-read the page at some point and see how to work around the overlapping in the two sentences, without changing meanings

THIS SHIP HAS NO BRAKES!!!!!!!!!!

Nah pues concuerdo con Jenny otra vez. El lenguaje corporal se destaca y junto con las expresiones acompañan muy bien el diálogo, que a propósito la frase me parece una buena idea

Es una forma de agregarle mas personalidad a las especies a través del lenguaje que, al igual que nosotros, aunque hablen el mismo idioma pueden tener diferencias en cuanto a frases y modismos de a cuerdo a la region, y en este caso de acuerdo a la especie también.

Te agradezco a mil por tan lindas palabras, Night! y me alegra mucho que el lenguaje corporal quede expresivo, es algo que siempre busco lograr ^^ y tal cual! trato de darles gestos algo distintos a huemules y colorados, ya que aunque ambos sean ciervos, su sociedad es muy distinta. En verdad mil gracias!

I love this comic so much. You do a wonderful job with the character designs and backgrounds!

 Dialogue is great too, and the setting is so interesting! The cat is my favorite design,  I love that it is an uncommon species people draw.

Dos personajes estan compartiendo la misma escena y hablan de forma amistosa. Must ship and fangirl (?) Fuera de joda, Acol me parece preciosa (me derretí con el panel en que está torciendo la cabeza mientras hace la pregunta. Es un gesto que yo usualmente asociaba con los perros, pero en ella fue bien ) y me encanta el ambiente. Este verde-azul musgoso-brumoso es un chocolate ante mis ojos, y sumale a eso la variedad de expresiones con las orejas. Ellas no sólo hablan con la boca, hablan con todo el cuerpo.
Respecto al diálogo, me gusta cómo lo dejaste, así más poético. Capaz son viajes mios, pero por la forma en que viven los huemules de no dañarse entre ellos, ser de sexualidad abierta y abiertos en cuanto a la conformación de familias, yo me los imaginaría más como bichos espirituales, poéticos y medios hippies; y que eso se traslade a la forma de expresarse. Por el contrario los ciervos colorados serian más "secos", más de ir a lo concreto, de no adornar ideas... más como el pobre tipo que vive estresado en el mundo actual, esta de mal humor casi siempre, contesta con mala cara y con monosilabos.... Tú dirás xD

De ninguna manera voy a protestar por el shippeo al fin y al cabo, vengo de la escuela de The Lost Canvas, jaja.

Mil gracias por tan lindo comentario, Jen y mil gracias por el feedback también! siempre se aprecia mucho ^^. En verdad me alegra que el lenguaje corporal sea efectivo, éso es algo en lo que me he estado esforzando últimamente. Y, me gusta mucho tu análisis sobre la vida de los huemules versus la de los ciervos colorados ^^  aunque no puedo decir mucho ahora, ya que es algo que volverá a surgir temáticamente en la historia, adoro ver éstos análisis. Y, de hecho, estás en lo correcto en tu interpretación ^^

Un millón de gracias!

WhiteKimya [2019-03-14 01:20:59 +0000 UTC]

Estas dos ya están hechas todas unas comadres (??), me encantan las relaciones de este tipo, muchas veces se encierran a protagonistas y no al resto de personajes! Acol en el cuarto panel ladeando la cabeza es super tierna!! No llegué a comentarte en la página anterior, pero toda la atmósfera y paisaje es precioso, da una sensación de secretismo y misterio! Y en el último panel los rojos dan aire a... se viene el peligrooo!

Sobre el diálogo, debo admitir que mi primera intención fue relacionarlo con la advertencia de Acol de no acercarse, es decir pensé que hablaban de lo mismo, quizá si no estuviera ese comentario condicionando lo que sigue, sería más sencilla la interpretación del segundo panel. La idea me encantó cuando lo leí en el comentario, pero tuve que leer el comentario primero. Pero también sería una pena perder ese detalle     ¿quizá si lo escribís al revés y sin un punto pueda resultar más claro? algo como "...you still carry the scent of far away, I'm surprised and also happy that you decided to join this." ¿O quizás aclarando que acaba de llegar para hacerlo más claro sin necesidad de poner que no se conocen mucho? "you just arrived and still carry the scent of far away, I'm surprised and also happy that etc, etc" o tal vez "you just arrived and you still carry the scent of far away, yet you decided to join this. I'm surprised and also happy!".

Mil gracias Kimya! (y omg, mil disculpas por contestar 500 años más tarde ;; )
Muchísimas gracias por tan lindas palabras! en verdad disfruto mucho éste tipo de escena, y más cuando son dos chicas! =3 

Sipis! se me dio una especie de overlapping, y tiene mucho sentido lo que decís. te agradezco mucho por el feedback! estaré cambiando un poco el orden de lo que dice así se mantiene y fluye mejor, también ^^

En verdad mil gracias por todo! voy como caracol respondiendo por mi inbox, pero leo los comentarios en el momento, y éste en particular me puso una gran sonrisa ^^

KingGigabyte [2019-03-12 08:27:43 +0000 UTC]

I've finally caught up !  I really like the "you still carry the scent of far away" comment as well. It feels like it has better flow than the original comic I interpreted it as she didn't have Awka's scent on her so the red deer wouldn't be as gun ho to attack her possibly? 

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

Nothofagus-obliqua In reply to KingGigabyte [2019-03-15 03:39:40 +0000 UTC]

Thank you very much! ^^ I leaned towards it in part of due to it sounding less generic, and also a bit because it highlighted the animality of the characters better. And, it's a bit of the two: the bubble in the first panel about not catching Awka's scent has indeed relation with thew fact they don't want to smell Awka in Acol (reasons to which should be clear later! ^^).

KingGigabyte In reply to Nothofagus-obliqua [2019-03-15 03:58:55 +0000 UTC]

I def find it  fitting ! I assume it's so the red deer won't be able to smell them to.

Actually, I didn't quite get at first what she was trying to say. I only got it after reading the description. But I figure others wouldn't have any problem.

Gray Pelt with black belly, Acol reminds me now of Quidu, and I have this throwback at Quidu and Awka's mom xD

Ah, thanks for the feedback!! I will wait to read a few more comments and change it if most agree ^^ thank you very much! I sometimes find it hard to look i perspective as the author, and there's also the fact that my comic has a low rate of uploads so that alot of time passes between pages. 

That's an interesting parallel ='D
