Description Comic for the first challenge held over at ! Check out everyone else's comics there too! Maybe even join. It's really fun! >w<~♥

My blocks were:
Your comic must have at least three characters, all of whom speak in every panel.
Include a very detailed background in the last panel.
I'd really like to see you use only a warm palette in your work, with a single cool colour for contrast. Whether you include black and white is up to you.

I know everyone else had more of a strip type comic, but I couldn't get this idea out of my head. QwQ Especially since people my age are up and moving to different colleges. Kinda melancholy, but whatever.
Artwise, I tried to do some handlettering. It didn't turn out so great on account of I did it all in one sitting and didn't have much patience for it. :I But it's a start. Regardless, hope you enjoy.

I see what you mean. o3o Still, Eun Mi and Mitchell also feel a bit of sadness and nostalgia when leaving, they're just better at accepting it.

OHMYGODXANTORYOUARESUCHASWEETIE. Thanks for the GINORMOUS comment, ahhh!
Thank you so much, I'm pretty ecstatic that all the feelings came across. I really wanted to keep it short. I was trying to keep the cold color as a nice contrast, thanks!
Yeah that is my least favorite panel (oh gosh, not even her neck what happened to her FACE?!). Color is also my weakness. QwQ;;; Thanks for pointing it out, though, I know what you mean (I just don't know how to fix it).
Awww thanks man! (No it sounds fine, it's what you think! c: )

Thanks! We had five days, but I did mine on the last day because I had trouble writing everyone's lines. xD;;

Like Hex said, you really went above and beyond and encapsulated the theme of Autumn in a really clever and complex away. I really thought the handlettering turned out great- it really works well with the story and characters. I love how you used the palette restrictions on the backgrounds.
Great work!

You've captured a certain melancholic feel to this piece which is very true to life: change can be hard. And the dialogue feels real. I have to say, I adore this.

Oh...oh my, thank you! QwQ~♥ I'm glad you got all those feelings, that's really what I was shooting for...and I always have trouble writing real-sounding dialogue, so thank you, and I'm glad you enjoyed it.

Yeah, but they all seem to fit together by being so different. They're a bunch of misfits that have that in common, so it feels like the group would find itself.

I like Mitchell already ;u; I think the warm palette is really successful without being too obvious! And the dialogue really flows, I would have had a terrible time making sure everyone speaks in each panel.

He's a d-d-doll, really. <:3c Aw, thanks! I thought it was too subtle, but I'm glad you think it worked! ;w;~♥ I had a pretty terrible time with having everyone speak. But I was like "NARRATIVE IS SPEAKING KINDA OKAY LET'S DO THAT". xD;;; Still fun, maybe you should join a challenge sometime! ;D
