Throwback Thursday #26


Welcome back to Throwback Thursdays!

This week, we dredge up a memory which I still feel a little guilty about. In 2013, I tried to do a Brownie webcomic. It didn't work for multiple reasons:
1. It was a direct continuation of the story in the books, which none of the readers would have seen
2. I've never been good at keeping deadlines, unless it really matters (I always schedule Throwback Thursdays uploads so I can write them anytime)
3. Let's be honest here, I wasn't a good enough artist at the time. And I don't really think I would be now, either.

I set up the website, and everything. I made two introductory posts, I finished several strips, started several others, and in a little notebook, sketched the rest of the strips that would make up the current story. I even started the next story, as well as some in-between strips like these two.

Anyway, the main reason I wanted to upload this is that it essentially shows Brownie and Bluebird at their peak. Around this time, I was really starting to wake up to the idea that one needs to make one's characters interact with each other and show personalities if one wants them to be amusing and/or compelling and/or sympathetic, etc. But, sadly, ponies came along at that exact time and distracted me, so all that we're left with that shows these two bouncing off each other is some sketched strips from this book, the last few pages of the last book in which I regularly drew/wrote Brownie's adventures, and a few assorted scraps of paper, similarly doodled on. One of those scraps in particular stuck in my memory, and it's definitely getting uploaded as part of this series.

So what of the webcomic? Well, I just sort of left it sitting there. I've gotten like a dozen emails since then, saying that there's a new comment waiting to be approved... but I don't want to go back. I can't even remember my password, anyway.

Oh, and if you're having difficulty reading it, here's a version with the text replaced (it's a bit sloppy, sorry: )
