Welcome back for another trip to Ashling….ford π
After all the effort to decide where her home would be in general, it was a lot easier to figure out where her house would be. Check out last weeks’s link to the Housing estate and then go down the road until it starts to bend a little. You’ll make out ‘Ashlings’ house fairly soon π
Now, to the reason I put all this effort in:
I was never too happy with the original page. Part of it was due to me poorly drawing out the generic housing estate I designed (based heavily on the one I lived in). Also, I wanted to do a better job realizing Ashling’s look of ‘longing’ when she peered up into the neighbors bedroom window?
Why would she be doing that, you ask? That’s another red-thread for later (sorry, I put a lot of these in my comics)
Also, I would like to introduce a new character! First shown in the original page featured and on this week’s re-draw, Mrs. Rebecca Connolly – Ashling’s Mother.
There’s a good deal of story and character development between Ashling in her mother, which I’l introduce in the next few pages. Rebecca will be a supporter to the main Bata Neart cast, and so I’m really hopeful that you get to like her π
Home again, home again, jiggity jig. π
Ah-ha! A new contender for a staff beating appears. π
I hope you’ll end up liking her. I’m going to try and play her as a bit of a ‘straight-man’ with a cheeky sense of humor. I think she’ll provide us with a more grounded perspective on what is going on with Aoife and Co.
Hmm this is interesting. So Kessy was right there is a little forshadowing going on. FROM 6 YEARS AGO! wow people been waiting a long time to figure out who she was looking for here Rawr!! You need to get on this π
@Howard: Alas it takes a while. You can only go so fast with once-a-week updates and breaks :/ Plan to increase the story pace soon.
