LadyDrasami just finished a comic version of my story "Priestess of the Backward Look", that I commissioned a while back. I figured I'd post it here for those who haven't been following her gallery. The file here is a pdf of the entire thing (16 pages) - if you want the individual images, go check out her gallery.
The original story is here: https://aryion.com/g4/view/217209
I think LadyDrasami did an excellent job of translating it to an almost entirely text-free comic, and I highly recommend her to anyone thinking about an art commission. She doesn't work fast, but it's well worth the wait.
Fair warning, you may have to wait a while at the moment, as I've got another couple of comics in her commission queue already. None of them are related to this one, and the next one up is a completely new storyline I wrote for the occasion.

Ooh, I can't wait! Do they all involve ub as well?
Posted by Groblek 8 years ago Report
Yes, they do - if I'm commissioning something, it's pretty much guaranteed to be UB-focused. ;)

Whoot! XD

You are UB focused? OMG! *flails* I'm shocked!!!

What an impressive and creative story. And so long. The amount of work and preparation that must have flowed into this must be immense. I enjoyed reading it a lot.

I'm glad you enjoyed it! Please do go over to LadyDrasami's page and tell her as well, since she did the hard work of drawing the whole thing.

aah, so THAT'S what it was based on--i thought it was a whole new story (though admittedly i haven't read Priestess of the Backward Look)

Hey, glad you PDF'ed this, since I found this right after midnight and the thought of that many pages click after click... ahahaha
Wow, nice conversion work between you and LadyDrasami to make this purely visual with no text <3

Thanks! I'll admit that the PDF was partly because I was too lazy to do the work of uploading that many images. But I also like providing the whole thing as a cohesive unit, so it is easily read all together rather than people wandering in halfway because one of the tags on a page triggered their interest.
And yeah, I'm quite impressed with the job LadyDrasami did making this work without text. I did provide a little dialogue for the other two commissions I've got pending from her, but this makes me inclined to try a silent one again sometime.

A picture really is worth a thousand words, hmmm?
And I think you've done enough self-pub and pub'ing around here to realize the value of "having it all together, so my audience doesn't have to work to find me" lol.
