ItsMihali here.
I was playing around in my drawing software the other day, placing stick figures within scenarios; playing with their expressions, and I conceived the idea, seemingly out of the blue, to illustrate a gaming comic. I know, I know; "that's the most unoriginal idea ever". That was my own initial reaction. My second thought, however, was that all of the comics that I had read up until this point had their own identity and distinct imagery associated with them. That's when it hit me (for better or worse); I could draw up something that is so devoid of character definition that it could be applicable to just about anyone.
I went with the stick figures, to underline the genderless, without a race, "it could be anybody" aspect to it. Then, by placing that/those character(s) in a relatable situation, I hoped to appeal to any individual who had experienced something similar. The final touch was to add a theme abiding colour in order to string it all together and to avoid a monochromic front which is usually unsightly at the best of times.
So, yeah!
I've put together a few since then and am very happy with how they've turned out. I hope to be producing them semi-regularly and they'll all be findable within the "Comic" tab of this blog.
I hope you like them.
