– I’m selling some original Modest Medusa and Ghost Kiss art on ebay! I’m trying to raise some money so I can go to Kumoricon and Geek Girl Con this Fall. Tables are expensive! I have six auctions this week. Each original illustration is drawn with markers and blue pencil. Auctions start at $40 and will run through the 30th. Money from these auctions will go toward tabling expenses at Fall comic cons.
If Harry Potter talked to snake girls instead of just snakes then she wouldn’t be so surprised about there being spells.
Stupid Harry Potter.
SPELLS???
Mage Hand is a very useful cantrip, especially if you don’t have any of your own.
Good catch there.
She’s probably having flashbacks to the spelling tests she had in school.
Oohhhh, this can ONLY end WELL I’m sure, no WAY this can go BADLY amirite?
You’re a wizard, Modest.
well, they´re in a magical country/dimension, so i´m not that surprised about the spells…but why does a ginormous snake have a couch?!
I wanted Naga to have some furniture so she didn’t have to lay on the cold cave ground. But it probably should have been bigger.
How about wider? If she likes to curl up…
it makes sense that a snake would loathe the cold ground, but a couch is plain impractical. a thick carpet or a huge floor cushion would work way better i think….or maybe a pile of furs? on top of a thick layer of straw? that would be warm and comfortable.
Probably. But I wanted it to seem more human. After all,s he was raised by humanish creatures in a town around other humanish creatures.
Obviously it is a couch for guests then. Even if for reasons she never has any.
There you go.
Lets just say the couch is there for guests. Or to remind her of the home she grew up in. Since she was raised by a humanish family human sized furniture puts her at ease.
Here I thought it was for guests or some kind of memento from her pre-snakey days.
Maybe it’s a hide-a-bed and when she unfolds it it’s really huge.
No doubt Modest is realizing that if spells are real, then so too must the dreaded Spelling Bee. It is a bee, which is bad enough, but this one’s also an evil wizard! Considering Modest’s understanding of how bees work and how Yeld is in general, it could happen!
Oh yeah I think the fire spell goes S, C, KNO and then a little 3
it’s a weirdly-spelled spell but it works every time!
Yer a wizard, Modest.
Yer a lizard, Modest
Yer a lizard wizard, Modest.
Creo Chocodilia! Veni pikachu mea! Demonstro plaque advocatus! Ego gemma crystallinus sum!

Maybe Ecsbox knows a lightning bolt spell, that fires off a constant low-volt charge direct into, just for example, a DS port.
Magic solves problems!
How does a giant snake read books? Does she use magic to turn the pages?
Maybe?
OK, you’re gonna laugh but….
It took me this long and multiple views to realize this comic was hand drawn and hand colored.
Well actually…. all the MM strips (with the exception of that one pirate one in Season 3) are hand drawn and then colored in photoshop. This one too. The difference here is that I used flat colors over the pencil art, which kind of makes it look like marker I guess. I wanted to keep the night time feel that I’ve been using pencils to convey for the last few strips, but I wanted color to return now that they were inside again.
And I totally got that, it definitely conveyed what you where going for. But I digress, I had no idea you hand drew everything and then Photoshop colored it. I’m sure you’ve said it before, but it must have slipped my mind. So many artists draw digitally mainly now, basing off a sketch and then going in later, or outright all digital even if it looks hand drawn. I’m impressed you’re staying with the traditional method, but hopefully I don’t end up discrediting anyone else’s work!
I find digital drawing to be way to time consuming. The first to episodes of Ghost Kiss and several of my Korasami comics were drawn digitally and they took FOREVER! I’m just faster on paper.
Aunt Naga has some pretty nice stuff.
Aww that family portrait on the wall is adorbs!
Oh, come on… “Flickum Bicus” is probably the most basic fire spell.
