Wolves of War

Being the webcomic adventures of Shakespeare-loving alien pilots, their spaceships, and gratuitous amounts of bacon.

Great job, hellsite

To the few followers I have left:

I will probably delete this blog before December 17th. I have enough anxiety from the current political situation that I can’t deal with this anti-net neutrality bullshit that most definitely won’t take out pornbots, nazis, or pedophiles. And I will not let Tumblr take me out - ain’t nobody gets to do that but me.

Stay strong, I’ll see you around - somewhere hopefully a lot safer. In the meantime, do what Tali would do - take care of yourself and honor your own existence, and if anyone disagrees, fight back. Fight back tooth and nail anyway you can.

I’ve drawn Tali for @wolvesofwarcomic. I like her simple design and the four arms are also fun. Hope this isn’t too bad!

[wolvesofwarcomic]

This is so cool!!

[wolvesofwarcomic]

Would you be cool with people drawing your characters? I'd like to draw Tali.

I….

You….

You want to…you want to draw my characters?  

FUCK YES

(on the one and only condition that you then tag me in it so I can share it with the world and then print it out and eat it)

How does this society view heron pilots? Are they frowned upon because of their enhancements? (Are they called freaks for being different?) Also, thanks for answering my previous questions!

Not a problem at all, anon, I love answering questions!  

Heron pilots - called Vipers - are generally viewed as outcasts in Nuran society.  They are quite isolated from civilians per the requirements of their job (they live on their bases and rarely go back “home,” and their ships are very volatile) and therefore very tightly knit among themselves.  So I guess the answer to your question is - yes, but not because of the four arms, because of they way they act and live.  Vipers are viewed (and rightly so) as very dangerous.   

This attitude can and does lead to some conflict among other branches of the military and other civic services (healthcare etc).  It is the rare two-armed Wolfian who can get along with Vipers.

So they have extra arms to pilot their special ships. Are there exams they need to pass before becoming pilots?

‘Bout two years of training, and then yeah!

[wolvesofwarcomic]

Why do your characters have four arms?

I have two answers for you.

1. 11-year-old me thought it was cool.

2. An explanatory art;

Are you still working on this comic?

Y’know, in theory.

I’m still writing the plot out for sure, but drawing time has become scarce what with adult job and other things.  I don’t get any money from this nor am I a professional artist (believe it or not I’m actually a professional horse trainer) so if anything gets backburnered, it’s this.

But not stopped entirely, not ever.  I’m glad some people are still interested, that’s what’s going to keep me going.

writing tip #1780:

take your story and make all your characters babies

Taok was not paid enough for this

writing tip #1787:

if you’re having trouble structuring your novel, refer to the classic elemental format favoured by aristotle, shakespeare and picasso. first, the earth phase, in which we find your protagonist living on the earth, a normal place, being their normal self. then comes the fire stage, in which a fire of desire is lit within your protagonist’s soul, leading them to set off on some sort of epic quest. then, the water stage, in which your protagonist gets wet,

Update!!!!

Big news friends - I have graduated!!!  I am free from the nightmarish hellscape all-devouring void that is my thesis!  Which means that, while I look for a normal “human” job, I will have time to work on pages at last.

In the meantime, enjoy this panel from the next page of a couple angery fluffballs:

What will happen next??? Stay tuned to find out!
