The big idea behind this page is that we're watching the girl, who is watching the match. This is the same girl that was the protagonist of Volume 1, which is kind of hard to communicate when Volume 1 hasn't been drawn yet. :) When I redraw this page hopefully I'll have ironed out a character design with the artist for Volume 1.
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.
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:
Please note that hovering over the comic, while not essential to reading the story, does reveal special aspects of the comic.
