Congratulations on finding a way around this terrible problem you've had. I had never thought of drawing with one's mouth!

Have you ever tried drawing with your feet (on a digital tablet)?

Perhaps shapeshifting is so contrary to the teachings of the Lady of the Stars that a religious Red like Sierra can't even imagine doing it.  Her faith blocks her from seeing "the cloak" that Lucian describes, but also gives her the power to see the aura of the staff as something evil.

The True Starists--at least the cute pope--seemed to have the power to transform.  That may have been one of the "demonic" powers that they gained by completely renouncing the Lady of the Stars.



Renounce?  I thought the True Starists were fanatical followers of the Lady of the Stars who rejected the Queen's claim for some reason.

And the staff Julian used has a certain resemblance to the church's iconography.

Yes, you're right.  I forgot the "TRUE POWER of the Lady of the Stars" line.
My point is still the same:  transformation may be a "demonic" power (worse than guardian spirits) for orthodox Red believers.

The pumped-up Lucian gave me unpleasant flashbacks of the infamous "Titan-tails" from the Sonic Archie comic.

Julian's ambitions seemed to be limited to independence.  He even mentioned "maybe finding a cure" for the transformation once he achieved his aims.  I agree that he was awfully careless to use such powerful magic without understanding it better.  He seems to be more a practical wizard than a scholarly one, though.  (i.e. blast your enemies with it first, and then figure out how it works).

If Julian's plan had worked the Red's airship fleet would have crashed or been captured by the Greys.  He seems to have been confident that without their fleet the Reds would have no way of seriously challenging his independence.

That second-to-last panel is so cute.  I can't think of many other artists who could make this whole scene so credibly innocent.

I also like the more realistic proportions you're using.  When you took over from Tod I thought your proportions were too toony for characters who get beheaded or have kids.

I think you've hit just the right balance now.  Your characters look great.

It also occurred to me that if Lucian has learned how to transform at will, Julian has probably figured it out by now too.

This sequence reminds me of the drug advertisements for foxes who are worried about male-pattern fur loss.

Propecia is not for use by vixens, and this medication can cause terrifying magical birth defects if a vixen is exposed to it during pregnancy. Propecia tablets should not be handled by a vixen who is pregnant or who may become pregnant.  Encourage your lord by praising his lush, fluffy coat, keep to your place, and don't poke around in his secret medicine cabinet.

"Warning:  These magical artifacts should not be handled by pregnant vixens due to the risk of rare but serious birth defects; which may include transformation into a monstrous three-eyed dragon.  Talk to your court wizard about whether forbidden magic is right for you."

Lady, when the royal fox equivalent of Michael Corleone asks you nicely to stay out of "business," it's probably wise not to pry.

He's looks... way more Saiyen than the last time we saw him drawn up close (as an anthro of course)

He does look *pause* different. Almost like he's taller, more muscled. And did she say "boxes", as in there is more then just the staff down there? Not good.

I like the changes.  Julian needed to look a little bit more formidable and less cute.

I'm still not sure who is trying to kill Aila.  Ordering the death of the mother of his daughter doesn't seem quite Julian's style, and he hasn't been in any position to order assassinations for a while now.

Those spikes seem better equipped to take out tires than pursuers on foot...

Oh they work just fine against feet, as long as the spikes are long enough to get through the sole of your shoe.  Even if you don't step directly on it but instead kind of knock it over with your toe, it'll just tip over and roll another spike right into the bottom of your foot.

And of course against bare feet, getting through the shoe isn't a problem.

They're also little terrors against horses.

A person who knows they're there can try to watch their step, but doing that slows you down.  Win/win for someone trying to escape.  Unless of course you just clear your path with magic.  Because magic solves everything.

Of course, you also have to throw a *lot* of caltrops for them to be effective.  Since you have to saturate a large enough area that your pursuer can't easily go around or jump over them.  Though would *you* want to try jumping over a patch of caltrops and hope you don't land short?

Those little things are medieval landmines.  {;)

Agreed, but if you go barefoot a lot outdoors (I did when I was surfing a lot), you become amazingly good at zipping around things you don't want to step on, even if running.  They would slow you down--and if they were *everywhere*, then you would have an impasse.  Feral Lucian is so small and agile, though, he'd probably be able to dodge around the caltrops almost like they weren't there.

Though in this case, it seems, just blasting through as a flying fireball seems to be enough. [fox]

I agree with R_T that they look better suited for use against wheeled vehicles than bare paws.  Tiny triangle-shaped razor blades would be better...  Ugh--that's a horrifying thought for a surfer or a bipedal fox...I don't want to give Reyn weapon designers any ideas.  Stick with the huge, shiny, easy to see spikes, please!

That was low.

But who ordered the assassination?  It couldn't have been Julian--he's still stuck in that pit, and I find it hard to believe he would sanction the murder of his son's mother.

Maybe the Fennec is like a robot-assassin--and is stuck in an endless loop: "bring me my son, kill the others" and is still following the orders literally even though the circumstances have obviously changed.

That flaming tail attack!  This is what Tails wishes he could do in Sonic games (though it would break most of them.).

I'm glad that being cute and feral doesn't put much a dint in Julian's awesomeness and general badfoxery.

I do miss Julian's aristocratic snark.  I imagine him being voiced by Simon Templeton.

Well, whatever the True Starists do.. their reds are much beefier ]:O

Except for the cute Starist pope!

But Julian's brilliant plan worked perfectly!  If it weren't for that meddling Lucian, all the Red leadership would be cute and fluffy, and King Julian would be graciously accepting tribute from his new vassals.
