DISTRESSED DAMSELS: "Rose & Lily's Magic Act", circa 2001
Added 2021-06-23 13:00:08 +0000 UTCAs seen below, I recently dug up what looks like an unfinished (and hence especially sketchy) con sketch from the early 2000s, featuring a hapless Kei and Y—er, Rose and Lily—running afoul of a sinister magician whilst sporting the classic Yoshikazu Yasuhiko "chrome shorts" costumes:
Dig those whimsical proportions on the foreground Rose, folks!
Not long after, though (judging by the character designs), I started a DiD commissioned comic (in proto-Empowered format) fleshing out that concept in a bit more detail:
The next page was scanned from a photocopy, hence the higher contrast and poor(er) repro quality:
Never finished the story, as the half-complete page below shows:
Recently, though, I figured out an approach that would've improved this goofy-ass scenario considerably, and cranked out a few sketchy pages along those lines; not sure if I'll post said update on a future Wednesday, or show it to the Big Spenders for their monthly exclusive post. Ooh, the suspense!
TOMORROW ON THIS HERE PATREON: Something in the Work Stages vein, perhaps?

Great upload, Adam! I rather enjoy magician themed captors :P For them, it's especially about the spectacle and showmanship, so there's a fun bit of extra ham and humiliation for the damsels while he makes them part of the act, particularly if an audience is present
