Writing dialogue is so hard, not writing them in your native language is a nightmare. I'll narrow down my following to an even smaller niche by posting comics about obcsure npcs in italian only

Taking a pause from storyboarding the pilot for my ocs story, to board/write a 30 pages spinoff (?) of it, with Idris (kinda) as main character. The intention is to print this and sells it at cons. Anyway I'm strangely satisfied with how it's coming out and that's a first! #oc #ocsky #idris

A sketched comic page with my oc Idris.

There's a full-length of Idris standing in the middle of the page. He have brown skin, shirt black wavy hair. He wears an armour and a mantle that is waving in the wind. In his right hand he's holding a big sword. Behind him some geometrical figures, inspired by zellij patterns, are framing him. The dialog box at his left says: "...and it belonged to a tall man, who was wielding a huge sword."

At the bottom left a small panel show a small kid, not so different from Idris in the background, hesitant. Behind him a small light, shaped as a star, is floating. In the foreground a close-up of Idris face turned towards the kid. "It's gone?" Ask the kid "No" reply the man.

At the bottom right we see the small kid again, still afraid, with the light floating over his head. The man now is kneeled in front of him, with the sword pointed in the ground. "It'll come back!" Says the man.
