Posted on 2 April 2023 by rustyhearts

Alrighty ladies, out of the clown car and back on the normie bus you go!

I actually went out and took pictures and played around with some filters to make the backgrounds on this page! The normie trio are walking on  Rundle Mall a two way pedestrian street in Adelaide's CBD.

Also, thank you for the suggestions re: RedBubble. I've added another sticker for all the Muddles fans  - and am currently working on a Jaden one B)

Double also: don't forget about the bonus page coming on April 6th (First Thursday of the month) !

    Oh my goshhhh Faith has gorgeous eyes! I love the tint they are on this page, I have a few pairs of purple contact lenses and one pair is pretty close to the shade hers are in this page 😅
    Also I love the hairy legs!

    1. rustyhearts

      Thank you 🥰🥰

  3. Love black anime characters

    Oh my gosh, Faith has violet eyes?! So gorgeous! It’s giving anime vibes and I love it ☺️

    1. rustyhearts

      Thank you!! I figured since I have a red eyed gendie I might just go full-anime with it and have other fantasy eye colours too 😂

    Leg hair don’t care! 🤟🏻

      Only female characters without their body hair intact are there to make a statement on how ridiculous it looks. Like with Blaire it goes with all her other stupid femininity performances.

    Faith got blue eyes???

    1. rustyhearts

      Breastie they are purple 😭😭 you’re the second person to say blue I’m losing it.
      Purple. Violet. Like her mum’s name 😂

    Where do I need to sign to join the Faith Protection Squad? I’ll pay my dues and also bring an actual sword if ever needed!

    1. rustyhearts

      Your sword and complimentary cat ear snap back are in the mail, queen. 🗡📮

    Stunning scenery!

      Thank you!

    1. rustyhearts

      Thank you!

    Finally!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
    The salve for my wounds! The balm for my heart!
    The heavens have opened, the birds are singing, the sun is shining but not too intensely.

    Just gonna drink in this page (so gorgeous) and furiously scrub the previous pages that shall not be named from my brain and heart…

    …What pages? Huh? What am I talking about? There’s just Jaden having beautiful normie adventures, that’s the topic of this chapter. Everything is beautiful and nothing hurts.

    (Obsessed with the metallic reflections and the sheer gorgeous color of this page. The layout of them walking with the background panels is so fun. Everything is just really vibrant and nice to look at. )

    1. rustyhearts

      Your comment was such a treat to read, thank you 🥰🥰
      Almost got me feeling guilty for future pages though, bahahaha >:3c

    I absolutely love your panel composition, i would love to make my own comic in the future and you have been such a huge inspo 😍 each page looks so well made and unique. I hope one day I will be at least half as good as you.

    On the other hand, yes, finally back to the wholesome trio and away from the horror show that is the gendie club 😞

    1. rustyhearts

      OMG thank you! I have a lot of fun thinking up how to lay out pages. It’s a really enjoyable challenge for the most part – and it definitely gets easier with time.
       

      I feel like I do my best right after being on a manga kick – which I feel often have really great composition!
       

      If you ever post your comic anywhere I’d love to read it!! Wishing you all the luck with it 🥰🥰
      It’s a pleasure to be your inspiration ❤❤

  11. Charly

    Aaaa this page is so pretty! I hope we get to learn more about Violet and Faith soon, I’ve been in love with Violet for awhile..

  12. Nonnie

    Finally, some good food after all the clown town. And I seriously love how you made the page! And if someone tells you is “cheating” to use photos, tell them to pound sand since manga or comic artists do the same with a complicated perspective! Is so nice to see you growing art wise!

    1. rustyhearts

      Thank you! It’s funny – I actually got the idea to do the backgrounds of this page like this because I’ve been on a bit of a manga kick. I love looking at physical copies especially tbh, it’s so motivating!
       
      It was fun to go get pictures of the actual location too.
       
      Path to working smarter not harder, and letting go of bad art advise (like calling time-saving cheating) is a journey in and of itself! Getting there tho.
       
      I used to bar myself from using transform/resize/rotation tools, or copy and pasting panels not that long ago because I thought it would make me a bad artist 💀💀

  13. Normie Lesbian

    OMG the background is sooooo coool!!!! Also little faith is so cute she better get so much attention in this story i love her

    1. rustyhearts

      Thank you!
      Let it be known we will be getting to the bottom of Faith’s bus bully >B)

    hrrghfhg… violet x jaden… i can’t articulate my thoughts more than that… *dies*

    1. rustyhearts

      🥰🥰 happy to provide ship vibes.
      (Secretly tryna put enough out there that girlies start writing LB fanfics bahaha)

  15. Mary

    Finally the payoff to Violet declaring she made the cutest baby; the reveal she is objectively correct.

    1. rustyhearts

      Omg you’re right!! (Thank you for your immense patience lmao)

  16. katz

    Lmaoooo i love how Jaden’s t shirt just says “location”

  17. Ms. Clicker

    Well you know…if Jaden loves eating out so much maybe she c-

    *Rusty shoots me straight on the temple*

    1. TDOTNDOT21

      BAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

      I would never do this to you, breastie ❤

  18. Jo

    Jaden’s happy face 🥺🥺🥺💖💖💖
    And Faith is so cute T^T protect her at all costs!!

    1. rustyhearts

      Imagining all the Faith-fans rocking up to corner the shittle little boy giving her trouble on the bus 😂

  19. terfy mcterf

    those backgrounds of the city are nice, but the style look out place with the rest of the comic, ok for one page ofc

    1. rustyhearts

      Thanks, but I wasn’t seeking permission on this front. I will be using similar timesaving techniques in the future.
