OOPs #360
Jun24
All right, looks like everything’s up and working! I’ve been sitting on this site redesign too long, and just needed a couple days to get everything remade. And in a strange bit of good (?) timing, my Wacom tablet died a few days ago, which I assumed was the universe’s way of telling me to get off my ass and update the site already. Thankfully Wacom made a speedy repair and delivery back, so I’ve already sketched up the first few panels of the next OOPs page.
And a special shoutout to Xandispin, who first suggested a site update several months ago, then set up this snazzy new WordPress layout for me to customize (which I then sat on until this past week). Thanks man; it took me long enough to get around to it, but without you the site would still be looking like something from the early 2000’s!
Seriously, I was manually creating pages and re-entering every altered link when there was a new page, using a long-defunct version of Dreamweaver 2001. That gets tiring real quick.
Anyway! There’s some new stuff in the Art & Extras section now as well, which you might not have seen if you don’t frequent Deviantart and such.
That splatter might be a tiny bit traumatic for Kalgkur.
Isher: Wow, so quirky.
Kalgkur: *nam flashbacks*
Just wait until some of de stuff zhat causes irritation to ozher species gets onto one of Kalgkur’s eyes. He has lidless eyes, and no hands to wipe it off. He’d have to dig underground to get soft soil to clean himself off if Isher isn’t fast enough.
Yinglet culture has come a long ways from de days before we met Humans, but de enclave system education is more “live and not die” zhan “Table Manners are important.” Is easy to see looking back to Kass’s first visit to de enclave’s hatchery where she met hungry younglets getting fed.
Kal is so precious. (:
I keep looking for repeated faces among the unnamed yinglets, but I don’t think I’ve seen any yet. There’s consistency within a scene, like the three guards (Deema and two unnamed) who escorted Vizlet the last time she was in town were the same throughout the scene, but I haven’t seen any of them outside that extended scene. And the two in the scene with Kalgkur when he first starts guard duty only appear in that scene, as far as I can tell. Same for the three in the worm-hole page, the two nurses, the two door guards, the three bored guys on the roof, the visitors to the bakersroof oracle, the assistant farmers, the assistant hunters, etc. But maybe here in panel 5, the guy saying “Hueee” is the one that Poak sat on (oops 120), and maybe the guy saying “FEHHH” is one of the two scouts who caught Lopin (oops 30)? I hope the author knows that we’re counting on a re-appearance of Mr. Yay before the end of this visit.
