Transcript:
A comic comic in four panels:
Panel 1: A landscape view of a temple floating above the clouds. The landscape is colored with golden and purple hues, which are unusual for the land of mortals. In the foreground, a sign reads, "Temple of the Goddess of Life."
Panel 2: The Goddess of Life kneels in her garden, watering it while whistling. She is happy and enjoying her peaceful daily routine.
Panel 3: Suddenly, the Goddess of Life is violently punched in the face by a flying lemon coming from below the clouds.
Panel 4: A top-down view of a catapult with lemons. Pepper, a young witch, and her cat, Carrot, are in command. They bump fists in a "Check!" sound while watching the sky with fierce eyes.

"PAF!!" is so satisfying
monospace@floss.social
@Kiloku As is the fist bump. Ah, the whole strip is pure satisfaction!
dhfir@suya.place
is that.
A watering can full of lemon juice?
SomeVeganCheeseIsOk@mastodon.social
@dhfir while that was my first thought too, my second thought was "lemon juice is not a fertilizer and is bad for plants."
dhfir@suya.place
@SomeVeganCheeseIsOk if that's not lemon juice...
...
...ew.
SomeVeganCheeseIsOk@mastodon.social
@dhfir I didn't say it! But thank you for joining me in this rather awful thought.

I like to imagine she used the first lemon to grow a tree just so sheโd have more lemons to fuel the catapult.

"All right, I've been thinking, when life gives you lemons, don't make lemonade! Make life take the lemons back! Get mad! I don't want your damn lemons! What am I supposed to do with these? Demand to see life's manager!
Make life rue the day it thought it could give Cave Johnson lemons! Do you know who I am? I'm the man whose gonna burn your house down - with the lemons!"

Love it. Subtle but funny once the joke sinks in.
I'm also quite glad to see Cave Johnson well represented in the comments.

Not that I don't trust Carrot, but a cat holding an axe like that is making me nervous.

I've seen a bunch of artists do that same "paint everyone a dark blue" stage at the start of colouring and always meant to ask... why? is it a foreground / background separation thing?
SnoopJ@hachyderm.io
@gsuberland obviously is the authority here but my understanding is that the first pass is a roughing-out, getting the basic shapes/composition right without fussing "too much"
I believe showing that first pass in blue when coming back for the final lines is skeuomorphism at work, the lingering influence of non-photo blue even when working digitally
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Non-photo_blue
davidrevoy
@SnoopJ @gsuberland Hey Snoopj, yes for the blue sketch under the line-work; a non-photo blue skeumorphism (today I saw on my TL digital artist using red https://misskey.design/notes/aawbzrtix5jz8s19 )
But what Graham is referring is right before coloring I think; the way I silhouette character (mask their shape) to split foreground and background. I use blue (middle of the video) to paint the mask. From my test, it's easier with this blue channel to notice tiny holes, bad edges, etc.
2 โSnoopJ@hachyderm.io
@gsuberland d'oh, I sure did read right past the specific mention of coloring. Sorry for the chatter and thank you for the confirmation and explanation.
โgsuberland@chaos.social
@SnoopJ ahhh, gotcha, so sorta like "coder colours" where you make things cyan or magenta so you can spot missing textures and assets easily?
davidrevoy
@gsuberland @SnoopJ Yes, exactly.

They made life take the lemons back, but did not burn life's house down with them. I can only give them half a Cave Johnson.

Alright, I've been thinking. When life gives you lemons, don't make lemonade. Make life take the lemons back! Get mad! I don't want your damn lemons, what am I supposed to do with these? Demand to see life's manager! Make life rue the day it thought it could give David Revoy LEMONS! Do you know who I am!?
