Ok, so a while back, Piratecat wrapped up a magnificent section of his game we now refer to as "The Comet Cycle." At that time, I joked that the Ledgerdemain Opera House would create a grand opera of the Heroic Adventures of the Defenders of Daybreak.
The more I thought about it, the funnier that seemed. So I drew it. So this isn't a picture of the Defenders of Daybreak: it's a picture of how a bunch of actors might portray them. A bunch of actors at a notoriously chaotic and overwrought playhouse, prone to opening night disasters.
That's not Liberace playing Nolin--that's Dylrath's brother Tephys, who married the company's sole prima donna, Tivity, who insisted on playing both Mara and Tao. Dylrath's nephew gets to play the comet, but isn't having much interest in wearing the costume.
The original is all in one piece and is colored in and is hanging in a frame in Boston, so I can't scan it. But I do have the last version of the sketch before I committed it to watercolor. Except, it's too big to fit on my scanner.
So here it is in glorious monochrome, and you can piece it together and color it in as you like.
If you come up with anything amusing, I'd love to see it. Go ahead and post 'em right back up here.
