Adventures Of Hikaree

[Umeko]

I'm reposting this as I've updated some pages and stuff! Easier to just post in a new thread then go and edit.

Main cover comes later!

*Updated shading*

[Umeko]

Even though the landscape looks like it's fall, its spring, this is what nature looks like on Mars... also... that tail

[Umeko]

Skyiler helps Aiyame as she gets down from his back to collect reeds.
Then she gets to work while Skyiler has a refreshing drink of water.

*Added dialogue and drinking sound effects*

[Umeko]

Strange noise break the silence.
Also second panel let you see how small Aiyame is compared, behind her is the feral's back paw

*Didn't change anything here really, just Aiyame's eartips*

[Umeko]

An attempt to smell the air and see if Skyiler can detect if there's anything nearby making that noise.
He regrets it instantly however as he gets a nose full of pollen.
Following is first a half sneeze which he tries to suppress but immediately inhales and sneezes forcefully.
Skyiler's second element that he can control is wind, its how a calm lake can turn into a raging sea.

*The fourth page took over 2 hours with the waves alone!*

*Updated shading, sound effects and some words*

Translation:
Miwa e rih - Bless you

And they're off to investigate the crying child in the forest.
Also interesting how a simple pose makes a character look so powerful.
Also notice in the last panel he's just trotting but looking at Aiyame it's like he is sprinting, he's just very fast.
His trotting speed is like the speed limit on main roads; not highway but the one below it.

Here I only added some sound effects and speed lines

[Umeko]

Big beast running past! he's not really running that fast *to him* he's just cantering, but his canter speed is 110 km/h which is the speed limit on the highways here.

Added a few critters to show the ground shaking as he passes, one of them almost got squished!

*Did nothing here, it looks good the way it is*

[Umeko]

That Skyiler hates humans is a big understatement. They call humans Azurans Earth is called Azura.

*Only worked on lighting here*

[Umeko]

There we go all up to speed now

0_0 WHOA! There is a lot of details and posts to take in. Thank you for sharing what you create Umeko! ^^

The scenery you draw is attention grabbing. Waves can take a lot of energy to look good and I like how you did them here =) It makes me faint to imagine how many hours animators could do with the water in movies from big studThe ios.

Seeing your art makes me feel an increase of curiousity. Who or what helped inspire the creation of Skyiler? The care and effort with the many parts of his abilities, strengths, and weaknesses are cool to see with your art.

I love the view of the different plants and sunlight at the beginning part. I like how effective the movement lines and effect show things that are happening during the panels. The spoken dialogue bubbles are clear and easy to notice without them hiding the art details surrounding them =)

Hmm good question about Skyiler, at first he was just a regular character, created for fun, then his development happened while I was in hell so he became an outlet. Everything will be explained in the animation I'm working on.
its been 20 years this year since I created him.
But long story short his story is a cinderella story, went from a thrown away character to what he is today
