I've decided to start naming each of my comic pages. I've seen a lot of webcomics do that instead of page numbers, but I'm doing both for ease of reading. I've named every page in Chapter 1 on the site already in the description box.

do i need to color my draft pages? absolutely not. But I do it to set a scene and because it's damn fun that's why.

Chapter 1: Page 19 & 20

Shares deeply appreciated on my #comic #art pages. Series recommended for ages 18+ due to occasional adult themes.

Sometimes when we think we're alone there are people who care about our work even if we don't know they're there. Big angry haters too *lol*

Page 19

Panel 1: Imagni wades out of the water laughing, chasing after her butterflies. She is being observed on some kind of green screen somewhere.
Imagni- "HEY! Wait for me! Hah ha ha!!"
Offscreen voice (green bubble)- "AWW, Look at her!"

Panel 2: "She's so damn happy." A mysterious grinning figure, sits sipping tea and watching Imagni on a screen made of green soundwaves. They have one visible eye that glows yellow. They look to be the same kind of species as Imagni. A Creator...

Panel 3: Imagni unaware she's being watched is super happy back at her beach. She clasps her hands in excitement looking upwards to the sky.
Imagni- "Oh Spectramis! I LOVE this!"... " I did good right?"

[Offscreen voice in red bubble]- "This is the ugliest and weakest concept I've ever seen."

Panel 4: Imagni drops to her knees in the sand and grabs a handful of her beach looking so happy she could cry.
Imagni- "My own little place."

Panel 5: We see a large foreboding panel of the two figures observing Imagni in a dark room surrounded by green screens made of light casting a warm glow. Behind the figures is some sort of big glass tube full of colored strings brightly shining.
Red bubbled figure is a large cloaked angry looking Creator with big curled horns on their head, decorated in armor and architectural adornments. She looks old and mean.
Green bubbled figure puts down her teacup ignoring the other Creators' spiteful attitude calmly. She sits with authority.

Red Creator- "She's already cycles behind Taijitu."
Green Creator- "Perhaps."

Page 20

Panel 1: The green Creator drags her claws across her green energy screen that looks to be some sort of art tablet. She holds a teacup full of odd tea floating with stars. "But did Creator Taijitu try to produce a fully functional biome as her first work?".... "Look at this."

Panel 2: "Water!" The screen zooms in to look at Imagni's basic bitch attempt at a sea.

Panel 3: "Her gravity layer needs locking... but it's there." The screen shows the rough volcano Imagni made earlier is lumping bubbles of neon lava into the air instead of flowing downwards now. The screen shows a Photoshoppy lock unlocked alert in red.

Panel 4: "This is some kind of... flora... I'm guessing." Touching the screen to zoom it shows Imagni's wonky palm trees as non confirmed.

Panel 5: "There's even the start of a rough atmosphere layer." Pinching her fingers the screen zooms out completely to show Imagni's entire project so far. It appears as a small floating island of rocks and hills. A hazy purple orb surrounds it with cartoony stars.

Panel 6: Red Creator doesn't look impressed at all, she scowls at the screens. "Layers? This amateur didn't even hide her draft lines before she finalized her environment layers."

Panel 7: Green Creator presses at her screens looking unfazed. "I hate to blow your mind, but I don't think any of us started out perfect."... "We all made mistakes."

Panel 8: "Ugh, why am I being forced to watch this? It's of no value to me." Red Creator grimaces looking like she really doesn't want to be there.

Most important part of current old page edits is just actually adding Argand's nose ring to every page *lol* #engelbaum

IT'S CREATIN' TIME! What cringe sparkledog bullshit can we make today? lol 🧑‍🎨 Even art gods start out shaky, and that's A-OK. Good job Imagni.

Page 17

Panel 1: Imagni holds her draft lines high as she commands a huge glowing blue guide grid to shoot out from the platform she's standing on. She yells as she creates in a very physical way.
Imagni- "GUIDES UP!!" "DRAFTS DOWN!"

Panel 2: A close up shot of Imagni grinning to herself, eyes lit up with paints and inks running from her hands in neon blobs.

Panel 3: "HYAAAAAAAH!" Imagni throws out a curved blast of ink on the black and white environment.
Imagni- "FORM!"

Panel 4: A back view of Imagni throwing her arm behind her as she lobs rainbow pencil lines and a billion sparkly neon things at the view in front of her. She is standing in some pretty rough looking neon water. Multi colored butterflies and stars fly around.
Imagni- "COLOUR - HNNGH!"

Panel 5: Imagni looks exhausted and crouches down into the water, her left hand closing shut.
Imagni- "Flatten."

Page 18

Panel 1: A close up of Imagni's face looking flustered blushing slightly, eyes wide.
Imagni- "OH. This is... This-"

Panel 2: Imagni spins around in cartoony waves to take in the huge (badly drawn) scene around her. "THIS IS PERFECT!!" she beams with the confidence and enjoyment of a new artist. In the background we can see a seashore with crudely drawn child-like palmtrees, tacky over use of photoshop brush effects and a big sparkly volcano. There is a star map in the purple sky with wonky blue line constellations.
She looks so damn proud of herself. And so she should be. She's an artist :)

Old PSD Engelbaum page (left) side by side with current edited Clip page (right). The Clip pages all have to be resized and extended for print due to starting the comic years ago at the wrong page size for print.

Meio Dia's concept came from DiGi back when we started Engelbaum as it's own thing. Personality and purpose wise she became a mashup of Kichigai, DiGi and Ohshima san along with a few of my old art/music teachers I hold in high regards. All the good bosses :] also a little Gaga coded lately *lol*

Gala was obviously a blend of Sani, Donna and my own younger artist self *lol* she's a blend of all my friends over the years who were more interested in creating art and putting passion into it than being in the limelight themselves.

Argand was based on a couple of people I know from my past, not necessarily friends. So for that reason I wont name them incase they get offended one day *lol* but they were super proud people who really took their job seriously and really hated change. We all know a few.

Pi is a short blend of a few characters that I met during my very short stint in college, but mostly Shaz for the sassy lovable dazzling troll factor *lol* I think our friendship was very Imagni/Pi coded irl 😆 But Pi is very 2001TRiPPY.

Unusti is a big blend of my friends. Mostly Ohshima san, Kichigai, Infractus and Shaz. I told Kichigai and Ohshima san years ago, but the other two not, so hey I guess *lol*
There are a few other artists that inspired her but those are my mains. #Engelbaum

oh lolll, I found this unused scribble under the layers of page 18. Imagni rolling on her beach and getting half drowned while fangirling XD #engelbaum

very messy stickman scribble draft of Imagni being happy she created a beach, rolling in the sand and then being half drowned by the sea.

I know it's completely pointless but I'll be including every old previous version of my edited comic pages on my website so fans can see the changes over time. I don't like erasing stuff. Most of the edits are purely print fixes for page bleeds or changing the color of bubbles. #Engelbaum

Chapter 1: Page 15 & 16

We all pull gross faces when we draw, even Imagni.
But what was the first thing she created on the empty canvas of her universe?

Page 15-
Panel 1: At the bottom of a tree glowing faintly red sits Imagni and little Astrima. Imagni is weaving a bunch of glowing draft lines expertly into a golden ratio while pulling an ugly face. She's concentrating hard. Astrima pulls on one of the strings and leans against Imagni's knee looking up at it all. In the background we can see Valentine standing guard with his hand on his sword. Further in the distance is a night sky broken by a horizon of green light. Hills and valleys lie dotted with mysterious bubbles.
[Imagni Box out] "Humans often say that art is just one long line of salvaged mistakes." "I suppose you could say the same thing about me."
Astrima- "Imagniiii, how come you can make all these cool things, huh? ... you're pulling silly faces again."

Panel 2: Imagni pulls a goofy face looking up through her pattern work awkwardly "N-hmm?"

Panel 3: Imagni stops and loses her concentration, stressing slightly at the question. "Oh! uh... practise, Red. Lots and lots of practise".

Panel 4: Little Astrima stands up and hangs off Imagni's giant hands playfully while Imagni smiles at her interruption.
"Nawww, liar! I bet you were always really good. Hey, Imagni-"

Page 16-
Panel 1:
[Astrima's question carries over onto Imagni standing in a dark empty space trembling slightly with anticipation.]
Astrima- "-What was the first thing you ever made here?"

Panel 2: Full shot of Imagni standing in a dramatic pose with her right hand outstretched, golden hair fanning out behind her in a shower of glitter. A black inky blob is pulling energy in her hand really to explode.
Imagni *thinking*- Time for my debut work. Don't screw up... don't screw up...

Panel 3: A dynamic shot of Imagni's hand blasting colorful light towards the reader as she begins her creation.

My #Engelbaum Patreon draft pages this month are pretty good, what do you think Pi?

Rough pencils of Pi pausing in distaste before scream-laughing "NO!" as Imagni looks on in the background.
