I DO NOT OWN THE SHOW

It’s Easter time, and I too have come back from the grave to give you all another long overdue comic page! I have to confess, this page was pretty much done weeks ago… except for that one hand touching the rock. That hand has been the bane of my existence for weeks. I need to tone down the perfectionism if I’m ever going to get anywhere with this comic.  I was also just busy.

The next page should be the last one featuring Cassandra for awhile (assuming I can fit it all on the page nicely), and then hopefully we will catch sight of Rapunzel and Eugene! (And yes, after them I can get back to Varian. All part of the plan, rest assured.)

Crescent Moon?

So, as someone who as been rewriting the Tangled ‘Cassandra’s Revenge’ episode and thus rewatching it obsessively, I’d like to point out that the moon is full during Rap’s and Cass’s fight:

and is not full afterwards (after Eugene’s birthday party):

Coincidence? Most definitely. I’m just kinda chuckling at the background artists here.

(Unless, of course, it has something to do with the fact that Rapunzel just made the moonstone chip and the actual moon is now crescent to reflect that in some bizarre and fantastical turn of events full of foreboding and obscure foreshadowing… But no, that’s absurd. Absurd I tell you. Scientifically impossible.)

I finally motivated myself to get back to the main storyline! I have the next few pages written out, but my life is a bit turbulent right now so we will see when I get around to drawing them (I have moved recently and am working on new job stuff, so we’ll see).

Here’s a record of baby Varian literally pulling his hair out over the scientific anomaly growing from his scalp. Just the thing this world needs.

    I think I can officially add ‘the color blue’ to my list of hobbies (yay science!). For those of you who are as enchanted by this subject as I have been, I hope to make a separate post commenting on it so as not to bog down this one any more so than the comic page already has. And yes, I know I dumped a ton of text on you, and I’m sorry. But for those who are sick and tired of the endless science notes, fear not! This will be the last page of this Baby Varian flashback and it’s high time I returned to the main story. Time to try drawing Cassandra again  

PLEASE let me know if the image is too big to load or the little details are too hard to see! It has more pixels, so I have concerns.

Is it unrealistic for Baby Varian to have 307 pages of research notes? Maybe, but no more unrealistic than him running about with alchemy gloves and such a dead-inside attitude toward life. Yet here we are. (actually, this seems to be several YEARS of notes, so I’m sure its fine) Also, did you catch that season 1 ep.1 reference in the field note? :D

I am SO, SO SORRY that I haven’t posted anything for nearly a month (especially since this isn’t even a particularly enthralling page action-wise). By way of excuses, My work style consists of bouts of manic obsession (seriously, I think I maybe slept 45 min. last night. Help.) and indeterminable lengths of time during which I can barely stand the thought of working on something. Honestly, the sooner we all lose hope that I will ever gather the courage to fully commit to something (let alone a schedule) the less disappointed we will all be.

Speaking of commitment, I bought an iPad! And a pen too! They haven’t shipped yet, but my hope is it will be faster and easier than sitting here trying to finger paint on my iPhone (not gonna lie though, I’m rather impressed that I’ve made it this far just with that). It makes continuing this comic a more likely possibility.

Varian is a scientist! Of course he will be doing science! See? See the science? I take comfort in thinking he would be just as excited about these endless notes as I am.

That distorted, magnified baby face, amiright? I’ll leave the undistorted version in the ‘read more section’ for those interested.

I dunno if you just came here for a bunch of Baby Varian doing science, but that’s what I’ve got… and this isn’t even all of it yet. However, this will probably be the last page I get out until after Christmas/New Years, though I might post some smaller random snippets at some point. 

This is a ‘Rapunzel’s Tangled Adventure’(aka ‘Tangled the series’, or TTS) fan comic staring Varian, and DISNEY OWNS THE SHOW, NOT ME.

… … . .

Quirin is trying so hard to be a good dad! He’s just also pouring water on the pancakes. Bro, stop. Also, how can you expect anyone to take you seriously when you speak in spilt pancake batter word bubbles?

That pancake speaks to me on so many levels.  I feel you, soggy mad pancake.

I’m not even going to pretend these page numbers make sense. I’m realizing I may have flashbacks even further in the past, which would put them at -1, -1.1, -1.2… what have I done

Here’s your prize, as promised–the undistorted baby Varian photo. its a big photo

Crescent Moon, pg. 0

So, stylistically these pages shouldn’t come till later in the story, buuut… I couldn’t wait to write them, so why should you have to wait to read them? It’s the promised Baby Varian flashback. Enjoy!

 I’ll let you know when to pretend you read them.

Quirin’s face has so much emotion. Too much emotion. I’m not sure it was ever meant to show that much emotion. Oh well.

This is a ‘Tangled the series’fan comic staring Varian, and DISNEY OWNS THE SHOW, NOT ME. Some of the art used comes from the show, and my username is written there simply so that people can find the rest of the comic. It is not made for profit, just fun.

First off, sorry if I accidentally alert anyone excessively as I edit this. this is my first Tumblr and I only created it a few nights ago (Deviantart is dying, so I’m moving stuff. the plan is to post this and subsequent pages here too.)

This page has my first from-scratch drawing of Varian! And it was not an easy one either (what with him flying sideways off a tower). That said, this note is still very much needed:
