The art for this one was originally going to be mostly digital, I planned to just blob in their heads. However, while drawing panel 1 I decided that it'd be worthwhile to actually go ahead and draw their heads. (See what I did there?) Turned out to be an interesting exercise in see how developed the supporting cast is (more developed than I anticipated).
On an unrelated note, I love my coworkers. I show the drawings to one and he immediately says "Why are those two checking out the other guys butt?" Sigh, silly coworkers. They be no ass-checks here (or should that be no-ass checks?).

About Sandstorm Conscience

Sandstorm Conscience is an extended examination of miscommunication between cultures, and the harsh consequences that are born from that lack of comprehension.

The Sandstorm Conscience series is the most lasting and thought-out project by TSHolden to date: the first book is completely scripted, and the second volume is being released incrementally as a webcomic. The first volume is still in need of a proper artist, someone better than my chicken scratches, so contact me if you're interested.

The Red Books are best viewed at 50% resolution on most monitors, with two-page side-by-side. Volume 2 is a mostly normal webcomic, but makes extensive us of hovering to spice things up. Comments welcome.

Reading the Comic

I believe in usability, and I believe that no two people have the same preferences. To make my comic more usable to a wider variety of people, I have set up multiple naviagtion options for the comic archive. You can do any of the following:

  1. Use the text links at the bottom of the page.
  2. Click the giant arrows on the sides of the page. Deprecated for now.
  3. Click the comic itself to advance to the next page.

Please note that hovering over the comic, while not essential to reading the story, does reveal special aspects of the comic.
