I finally got around to posting my long-promised “Legend of Zelda” fanfiction onto Tumblr! Chapter 1 is 17 pages, and it’s done in a mix of prose and comics, much like “We are the Pickwicks”, except this story is much longer. Since it’s so long, I got my friend Yunyu to compose some music for it, which is fun. You can see her music track down below, in Youtube form, which is her version of “Zora Domain” backgroundmusic.

 

 

Now onto the actual story itself. I’ve posted all 17 pages onto a single post for Tumblr, so you can go directly to the Tumblr page itself to read the thing if you click on the first page. Not the best way to present a comic strip (on Tumblr… but it does make it easier to read/load, in terms of the internet. Enjoy!

Here’s the Table of Contents on Tumblr.This whole thing is also being posted on my DeviantArt, and also on SmackJeeves, so the most up-to-date chapters are being run there. Chapter 2 is running on SmackJeeves until the 10th November, when Chapter 3 begins.

 

Thoughts: It’s interesting how incredibly fast writing/drawing in this prose+comics format is. I started doing this in late May, and by September has already written the whole thing, all 300 pages of it. As of this post, I’ve drawn 160 of those 300 pages, and is mid-way through Chapter 6 (so at the half-way mark). I’ll talk about my work processes for this format later, but if you compare my standard work rate in pure comics format, it’s 10 months for 160 pages, not including toning. In this format, I’ve reached 160 pages in 5 months, so twice the content in half the time. It’s interesting when you think about it.
