SOOOO we’re finally at the start of the Sunset/Dusk sequence!!! Two of my favorite chapters in the book and pages that I’ve been excited to get to and draw literally since I first scripted them years ago. Ough. I love these chapters so much. Angsty Ahab time.
Aaaaand speaking of Angsty Ahab…there’s early access on my Patreon of a very fun (if i do say so myself) Hot Boy Ahab TM painting, if you desire to take a look. He’ll go up for everyone sometime next week, but if you want to see him before everyone else, head on over to my Patreon!

And, once he’s up for everyone else, Patrons will get a Patreon-exclusive process video As Well As a detailed breakdown of the painting process, including the references I used, thumbnails, and me struggling for a million years with the lighting. Patrons also, generally, get to read 3 weeks ahead, see WIPs of the pages, and other extra art and stuff! So if you wanna support this comic and get access to that stuff, head on over and check it out if you feel so inclined.

Beautifully painted!!!! The deep glowing teal and red-orange, and the glimmering white highlights... loveliness indeed! But not for Ahab :,(

SAHAR i let out a physical GASP when this page loaded !!! IT LOOKS ABSOLUTELY INCREDIBLE the colors THE BLUE AND ORANGE (throughout these years i realized i have a thing for the blue/orange combo lmao) THE LITERAL WHITE AND TURBID WAKE !!! (it looks realistic) the shimmerrrr on the waves (bless sparkle brushes) THE SUNSET?? THE REALISTIC WAVES AND THE LIGHT/SUN RAYS REFLECTING ON THE WATER?? you are absolutely in the right to show off when painting water BC IT ACTUALLY IS STUNNING !!! and ofc ofc poor angsty emo ahab all by himself in the cabin <//3

also i’ve seen someone mention this so i just want to ask but was it intentional that ahab is positioned in the wake? like the panels make it that he is aligned with the white from the previous panel soooo i wanted to know your thoughts!!! thanks ^-^

THANK YOU SO MUCH BERRY!! GHGH yeah i've Also discovered very recently that i have a thing for the teal/orange color combo...it keps showing up in ahab or ahab/starbuck contexts and im like. hmm. ok. this is good. gdsflkadjs
and yes god bless the sparkle brushes <3

It was intentional from a composition perspective (the eye follows the white wake towards ahab) but there wasn't really any symbolism in mind behind it! of course anyone is happy to read symbolism into it if they want, but there wasn't any intended. just composition lol
