Chapter 143 – Volume 29 – Just for You and Towards Eternity (3)
“I wonder if it would feel like this.”
“Huh? What is it?
“An extra scented candle design.”
I hadn’t been able to proceed with this work at all because I was drawing an SD drawing cartoon as a gift for Rosaria.
But I think it was done quickly because the work was properly arranged here rather than at the academy.
Because it is small, you don’t have to pay much attention to the details of the painting, and it was the result of getting used to real oil paintings.
‘So before I made computers and tablets, I got used to analog pictures.’
Anyway, there were quite a few other fragrant flowers besides chamomile.
It was a task to draw a different feeling of Nozomi illustration according to the theme of those flowers.
Then, it is now used to design scented candles that match that scent.
“Huh? Is that something else coming out?”
“I’ve been thinking about stationery and this, but I already sold the work because it felt like stationery, and I didn’t have the energy to pick out stationery like that, so I decided to increase the types of scented candles.”
Although the printing of color pictures for scented candles is a high-end method, there is some room for it.
In the case of stationery, it is a type of designing in a single color and drawing out a lot of it, so you have to make and sell it in large quantities using a general printing method.
That part was impossible due to the nature of the factory, which is busy copying comics right now.
“Are you going out so well that you can’t afford it?”
“It was almost an uproar…”
Just in case, I went to check the situation for the first time in a while, but they said it was a similar situation because they were still hugely popular.
No, no, this time, how many people fall in love with my work, this is how word of mouth burns.
It’s a little scary.
“By the way, Rosaria, you’ve been working on it too. Is that a new work?”
“Yes, the manuscript is all out. Do you want to read it?”
“I wonder…”
If you think about it, I lived a very busy life without taking a break from right before vacation to right after vacation.
I thought it would be okay to take a break today while watching Rosaria’s new cartoon.
A while ago, I read again that I was looking for Rosaria’s taste, but because of that, I was quite curious about the next story.
How do you feel about the right timing?
“Oh, finally the final battle.”
Even thinking about what she had heard from Rosaria in advance, there were many things that could be expected.
First of all, as far as I know, this is the last work in the Pink Diary series.
It’s because we haven’t dealt with the fundamental enemy that has plagued the main couple, Milk and Strawberry, yet.
“Strange?”
“No. It’s a good feeling? Wait a minute.”
Apparently, the main content of the previous work was to deal with the sub-villain Cream rather than the main villain.
Therefore, in that part, I start by slightly retelling the story of the second work, ‘Pink Shared Diary’, which dealt with this as the main material.
Under what circumstances, and how milk saved strawberries.
‘Composition is very clever.’
It’s been a long time since Rosaria drew a cartoon, but the feeling didn’t die at all.
Honestly, it’s already fun and exciting, right?
It was to the point where I threw myself into reading the next book with great fun, even though I was insane from staying up all night working on illustrations until a while ago.
“It’s subtly dangerous, and you can overcome it somehow.”
Basically, the style of the work was a story about overcoming hardships that started to get worse after the last work and proving love.
The feeling of changing the genre slightly from the previous one was much stronger.
To be honest, this type of work is also very delicious, so I don’t think it’s something to complain about.
To be honest, I already filmed a Crazy Psycho Reds thriller in my previous work, so I think this is an appropriate level.
“Five…”
And an incident occurs in the middle that makes you think you have defeated that damn enemy.
Chocora found out that she was causing the phenomenon by using her girl as if it were her tool.
It was about succeeding in rescuing Choco.
“He’s cute too.”
In particular, the orchara was also used as a motif. Her appearance is an adult, but her actions are a little childish and cute.
It’s because the period of being kidnapped and used is long. In fact, the common sense that should have been learned in the human world is lacking in many ways.
In this setting, it seemed appropriate because it was a very good national rule character.
‘Five…’
As expected, looking at Rosaria’s work, I was amazed at how frighteningly modern the concepts that popped out on their own even though I hadn’t taken them out properly.
I don’t know if it’s because Rosaria is a genius, or if she happened to be like that by chance, or if everyone has similar thoughts about being a human being.
Anyway, this time the enemy with the concept of ‘brainwashed but originally a good guy’ was quite good.
Choco, who succeeded in saving just a moment ago, was the character who introduced this concept.
In fact, the real boss who kidnapped and used Choco brainwashed Choco in advance, and then the rescued Choco hit everyone in the back.
However, the way this brainwashed Choco speaks and things like this are okay, but it’s a bit disappointing that they aren’t mentioned in the design section.
“Design?”
“Yeah, I hope there will be a change in appearance when I reveal it.”
She’s usually a weak girl with nothing, but when she betrays her, she gets horns and a tail, symbols of the devil.
With such a design-like atmosphere change, you need to add a color tone or add a cheesy description.
You can take care of the justification that the character is forcibly betrayed, and you can also take care of the mulberry taste of releasing it and returning it to its original state.
‘If there’s not even such a description, it’s just a traitor who gets cancer.’
No matter how brainwashed he is, he is forced to betray him.
Because packaging it beautifully is also an important law in comics.
For once, that’s what I felt.
“Aha…”
“Of course, you should do the design yourself, but wouldn’t it be better to show the settings and changes that make those changes?”
“That’s right. As expected, Carly is very smart in this area. Every time I do this, I realize that Siwoohwa is helping me by my side…”
“No, saying that makes me feel a bit strange… Anyway, other than that, it was a fun overall work.”
And this is what I always feel, a character with a prickly head who feels a little stupid is cute.
I think that’s why it permeates the work while exuding a pretty decent presence.
For a character who first appeared here, he pulled out his charm well.
“Okay, I’ll think about that a little more.”
“Oh, it’s fun to read comics after a long time. Shall we read the game books we bought and left behind?”
“Ah, Carly. I thought of it because I was playing a game book.”
“Huh? Huh.”
“Isn’t chess a game too?”
“…Right?”
Isn’t the closest thing to the concept of a game used in a game book a board game like chess?
Come to think of it, Rosaria really liked chess.
I wasn’t that bad either, but Rosaria was so overwhelmingly good compared to kids her age.
I remember her being robbed several times in a row, and the difference in skill level was so great that she didn’t want to do it.
“Although the game book is disposable after all, it is judged like this chess and it affects and results.”
“Right. Broadly speaking, it falls into the same category as chess.”
“Then, can’t we make it multi-use rather than disposable?”
“…It doesn’t matter. Chess was created in the first place by someone making up the game and the rules, right?”
Of course, it will be closer to a normal board game rather than a game book.
Come to think of it, if there is a board game in this world, is it just a traditional game that has been handed down since ancient times?
I remember a few by race, such as abstract strategy games like chess or games of luck using dice.
I think there was probably a trump card, but I don’t know what kind of game I can play with it.
“Then, if we can proceed with the undecided story bit by bit. Each time we can create a story with a different beginning and ending. Just like chess is a story that depicts a single war, can’t we make a comic story that way?”
“I don’t think there’s anything I can’t do…”
Among the reasoning board games, there may be some that you cannot play again after you play once, like a game book.
There are also things that can be played multiple times, where the culprit or things change every time.
There is nothing difficult to do, and ‘Mafia’, a bare-handed board game that is so famous that no one really knows about it, is such a form.
“But why?”
“It reminded me of the fact that Carlyne made ‘Walking Through Time’ separate from ‘An elf who dreams of having an affair with an orc is still frustrated tomorrow’.”
It was like making a board game instead of a game book.
In other words, it means to make and sell a board game with the same IP based on a cartoon.
To be honest, balancing is a problem, but the idea itself is very good.
In this world, game culture such as board games is not more developed than the world I lived in.
To be precise, the game itself exists, but there is no atmosphere to actively create something like this.
In particular, I don’t think of applying such a detailed story to this game, so of course I don’t use IP.
“But the shape is a bit of a concern… I’m sure there are a lot of problems with books, right?”
“Then, how about making it in the form of a card like a trump card? Make it like a book whose order can be changed at any time.”
“Ah…!”
I’ve heard of this too, but I heard that there are many cases where you use this kind of card when you play a mafia game without a moderator.
It’s like writing a job on a card and giving it out randomly.
Anyway, if you think of each page of the book as a card.
You can use it for play much more freely than a game book.
“Thanks Carly! Just the advice I needed!”
“…It was nothing?”
But what kind of game is he really doing that to make?
