Only one will usually be Jarl or Viscountess

Kitty

When a couple is ruling a tribe they are usually Viscountess and Jarl. But what if rulers are both females or both males? May there be 2 Viscountess or 2 Jarl in a tribe?

Last we saw of Avanti she ran off into the meteor forest. Ronja has dominantly floppy ears, it is very hard for pups to have prick ears when one parent has floppy ears even if the other parent has prick. The cartilage rarely get strong enough for the ears to stand up. I have a dog irl who had a floppy eared mother and a prick eared father, and my dog out of five siblings is the only one with strong prick ears.

What happened to the monster that Ranach controlled? If Ronja's daughters are mostly jaro, why do they have floppy ears?

Kique Nordin

1. Raun? Idk XD Someone similar to Roamer. 2. She's much the same, but of course more anxious and worried about their lost family members. 3. Yes but they all have more or less of an open relationship. 4. Possibly Roamer or Fjordor.

The aki was just released, the fox will be released next month

Kuni

1) If Kargo wouldn't have died, who do you think could have been a good partner for him? 2) How is Lifa these days? She started out as this strong young female and then had to endure so much hardshipe, how is she character wise after all of this now? 3) Are there couples in Southspear? 4) Beside Rogio, who of the characters we know so far would be Ranachs type?

Kitty

Hi! Are we still getting the Fox and new Akiulfr base this month? :3

Kique Nordin

No ;)

It depends on the page, if I have it completely mapped out in my head it usually takes 1-2 days, but it depends on the perspectives if they are particullary challenging, if the background takes a long time to paint, and whatever else that may be distracting me from finishing it. On good days it usually takes 1-2 days. I think I spend about equal time on art and story, the script may sometimes be easier to work on though since art block may stop me from getting things on to a canvas. I enjoy both equally. I've stayed motivated for so many years just by being very interested and in love with the story and characters. I think what has helped a ton is that I write in the Discovery type, I explore the script and its various paths it may take while making pages, it helps keep me engaged and motivated since I'm experiencing new things all the time. If the story was 100% written 5 years ago with each and every detail you can think of, I can imagine that drawing the pages would turn out to be quite boring, and I might have lost motivation to do it, since I've already experienced it all 5 years ago.

Kique Nordin

Not really since I have zero knowledge about that X) But it would be a cool and fun thing to have in the future

Kique Nordin

That has been a concern of mine as well, it's something you have to leave up to the people and trust in their judgement and respect towards you. I often look at tutorials from Aaron Blaise while I draw, it inspires and motivates me, but it has happened that I've had a sketch turn out very "Aaron Blaise" like, and I've had to redraw it to make sure I make it into my own style. This is one of the reasons why I've struggled to make an expression tutorial yet, knowing people might use that to better integrate my style into their own.

Kique Nordin

No, I'm very particular with the quality of my pages and want a streamlined look of it all, having someone else intergrate their style into it would distrupt that flow, and also if I ever were to have a falling out with that person and end up on disagreeing terms, they could try and claim that page as their own and fight me on copyright issues X)

Kique Nordin

1. Haven't thought of it, but I guess Jahla first, then Rohgir then Argeirr. 2. Nothing really X) They don't do milking yet

Gurkin

Did you choose that picture for the Q&A just to make us suffer?

How long does it take you to make one page from concept to finished coloring etc? Do you find you spend more time on the story or on the art itself? Which do you enjoy more? How do you stay motivated to stick with this one story for so many years, vs creating a new story?

Nesha

Ever consider doing a flash game on here where people can create there own wolf, dog or cat. Strictly for rp purposes.

Foxy

I kinda wondered about your drawing tutorials and it crossed my mind that people who are learning from them may pick up on your art style to some extent. Are you comfortable with that? I ask because 1- I get a lot of my inspiration from you, your tutorials help me a lot, but 2- I can see my art looking a little bit like yours sometimes because of that. I don't want to make you uncomfortable.

Merci

Have you ever considered having someone do a guest page, or a collab page? Also, have you ever considered doing a page re-draw of one of the older pages? It may be more applicable to the beginning Asmundr pages, but your art has grown so much even since the beginning of Home!

Kique Nordin

Doing good cuddling you ❤️

Tora Collita

1. Who's the eldest of Jahla, Rohgir, and Argeirr? 2. If a Nova lost its foal, what would the canines and felines do with the milk of the cow? Would they know how to milk? Would they drink it? Hehe

Zirvasity

How is my handsome man doing this fine evening? <3

Zirvasity

That is my job ;))

Jay

Do you plan on adding anymore breeds?
