Neopets : The Void Within
Epilogue - Page 1
Wow, there's a lot I could say about the Epilogue pages. More development went into these comics than most chapters. We had to create new environments and update the character designs. The storyboard layouts had more detail and colors since we had to get the vibes down before final art.
The Darkest faerie cave and pool, recharging with the help of void abyssal crystals. Drakara returning, all roughed up (if you remember she turned into rainbow sand and floated away).
Let me know how your liking the plot or have any questions!
Original sketch layout next to the final art (done by our art team). I'll be showing off more concept art and graphics throughout the event, so stay tuned and I hope you enjoy following this story!

Wow, there's a lot I could say about the Epilogue pages. More development went into these comics than most chapters. We had to create new environments and update the character designs. The storyboard layouts had more detail and colors since we had to get the vibes down before final art. From the Darkest faerie, cave and pool, and 'The Three'.

Very new to Tumblr but! I've seen really cool Neopets art here and wanted to share the concept art I did for The Darkest Faerie redesign! I was very honoured to get to work on her :)
imagine they use the greying ritual on The Darkest Faerie and try to rehabilitate her and she's like "fuck you I hate all of you I hope you all DIE! ...wait.. I think I know who I'm supposed to be {:o..." And she reforms into the void faerie and gets Worse
(I accidentally deleted the original tracker oops lol)
This will mostly be used as inspiration for myself to be able to check things off as I slowly go along! Feel free to ask questions or whatever about it!

Every morning in ~2004 I would do this puzzle before daycamp and got so good at finishing it. I started doing it before school started to and for a few months it was a ritual to assemble jerdana as fast as I could. And I look u in the eyes. And I tell you. I did not know who the hell this aisha was. I played neopets but I had no clue what story she was from nor what her name was. I bet it was written on the box, even, but I was not a child known for reading anything. But I didnt need to know her because she was the cool skirt aisha on the puzzle that I could do SO fast. And she's my friend.
Good god, ok… I started getting tired around year 10 and I just finished this a few minutes ago (it’s past 3 am). There are a lot of plots at the beginning that don’t differentiate between meta lore plots and world lore plots but they become distinctly separate at year 6. The crossed out dates are because I’d like to come up with month names that don’t sound as infantile as the canonical ones.
