Trigger warning for Odynophobia I guess?

I got least favorite elfquest character, and number 17... beaten up. Strongbow is my least favorite, so...

To be honest, I'm not fan of drawing least favorite beaten up or with bruises. He probably just had a nasty fall of his wolf.

I for the other hand seriously like Strongbow! because in real life I'm actually the stern quiet type! I just don't like to speak that much! (I know! strange isn't it!) My least favorite is Ahnshen, always hated the guy! I think it's great that we have so different characters in the series! but the bruising, I'dd add some purple in the mix, it makes bruises look more... well bruising!...  but again! nice use of color! you are able to works with a medium I really suck at!...

Yeah, it is funny how different our opinions are on different characters! And also why opinions are different. Like, even if I don't really like Ahnshen either, he is still interesting to me, because he actually adds a very interesting point up with wolfriders and Sun Folk, and culture. Yeah, he ends up objectifying and posing this ideal version of Moonshade, which is quite different from the real Moonshade, it is a part of the two tribes understanding each other, and he grows from it. Which you don't see that often. Also it was refreshing to see Moonshade do things seperately from Strongbow, as those two were so often in tandem.

In contrast, if Strongbow had only been the stern, quiet type then I wouldn't mind as much. My problem with Strongbow is that he very much holds himself above others, he judges the Sun Villagers for not trying to learn Wolfrider culture, while refusing (as far as we can see) to learn anything about the Sun Folk. I also really dislike the "he should just take her" line. I honestly have never forgiven him for it, even though I can see his positive character traits, like that he is a great father, and how loyal he is once you win it.

On the colors, i was actually going for the colors that awful bruises take about a week after, The yellowish green tinge, though I agree with that I could probably used more purple. Thanks for your comment!

Oh! I though they were recent bruises! then that explains a lot! then the color is spot on!...

 and Yeah, even as I like strongbow, that line is awful! I know that they do not have the concept of rape, but it still never sat well with me... same with the skywise ember thing... just... ugh! I don't like to see material like that in any media... the reason I dislike Ahnshen is probably that I've seen that kind of stuff too much in real life! it seems that men always try to force their stupid sex-doll ideals onto women! making women nothing more than things to bang that please their eyes... I've honestly hated it always, even as a child... I do not have a lot of guy friends because of that... even if I'm a guy myself... and truthfully I've beaten few guys up because of it... I've just seen it too much and sadly rapist don't tell about their deeds or I'd honestly beat them to death...
