Big project for the month of February is done! As soon as I got this Marinette model I decided that this and the previous comic were the first two ideas I was going to do with her. I'll admit that this comic, much like the last one, didn't turn out exactly as I envisioned it, but I had fun making it all the same! No plans for a part 2, but I'll see if I can think up more works using this Marinette model!
Author's notes:
1. Marinette's swimsuit was a big hurdle for me while making this. I knew I needed a one piece suit, most of the available models were outdated or too low-poly for Marinette to use them, causing it to look very off. I tried using my kh model suit, but even that one was too low-poly for Marinette. Even now, her current suit doesn't work well and probably won't be used for any future projects any time soon.
2. It was a bit tricky trying to find proper swimsuit/beach models, including a life guard, for this comic without using established characters with their own story already. Then it hit me: "When in doubt, use Pokemon!". Finding good models to use wasn't too difficult, but finding a working child model to take Marinette's suit was definitely the most challenging part. Hopefully one day I can fix these swimmer models to be used more often in the future.
3. I had to have 2 versions of this stage (one large and one small), due to the size needing to be different for shots. I gave the stages the ability to have their size altered, but in the event of needing to go back, I chose just to have two versions of the stage instead.
4. I may try something with this life guard model in the future since she does have a fully nude base.
5. This will probably be the last comic with this Marinette model for a little bit, unless I think of another idea for her.
6. The last panel somehow just felt like it was in line with the show, hence why I did it lol.
