I always found it a little amusing that the prize for collecting 100 mounts was…another mount. And in Fyres world where that means another mount to feed, that might not be such a good thing! How could she say no to that face though! Now whats interesting about this comic is that this is probably one of the first ones we came up with back in the day when the comic was still an inkling. And only now, almost one full year later does it show up in the scheme of things.
Speaking of which, this is a major milestone for me, as:
That’s right! This is the 50th comic I’ve done! I also am amused that this actual in game achievement works in this instance :3 Anyway, 50 comics…that’s major for me. I can’t believe I’ve stuck with it for this long, but that’s a post for our anniversary. Speaking of which, some VERY IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENTS after the break, so CLICK!
As we near the 1 year anniversary of Daily Quests, I want to sort of “end with a bang” you know? So I’m officially announcing that Daily Quests Comic Updates will be on Hiatus for at least two, possibly three weeks. “OMG WHY!” I’m sure some of you are screaming, but I have a very good reason. I *want* to do Emergency Kindergarten: Lesson 2. Very much. However, it is REALLY time consuming. Animation isn’t easy or fast, but its time to do it again, you know? I have had a lot of people still commenting on Emergency Kindergarten: Lesson 1 and a lot of people want to see Lesson 2. So my plan is to use the time I usually work on the comic to work on EK:L2. The reality is, I just can’t work on both at the same time.
My goal is to have EK:L2 in about two weeks. That is a very VERY ambitious goal. And one I am not sure I can achieve. But I will try. However, do expect that there might be a three week break while I get ‘er done. Hopefully everything will fall into place and we can all take our seats and get another important WoW lesson. I thank everyone for their patience and understanding and I hope you all look forward to lesson 2!
Lastly, if you don’t follow Fyreuni on Twitter then you might not have seen a couple of new pieces of art I have done recently, so here is a bit of an art dump! Click for larger:
Lol nevermind how they got the dragonhawk into the mailbox…how is it coming out!?
Great comic! I’m REALLY looking forward to EK:L2. I know I’m not the only one who appreciates all the hard work you put into this so take the time you need.
Thanks for making us all smile every Friday morning =)
The mini pet one is the same way. I still wanna know why they sent me a skunk for 50. You don’t want him so you sent him to me? He stinks, literally.
Its a big week for WoW webcomics this week, seems everyone is making big, important announcements and changes…
Is there something in the water??
Its mad I tell you… MAD!
Do you have big important changes too!? Love the art style of yours btw. So jealous of your mad skills
Twitter link is not quite right…goes to a guy named Hershel with 0 tweets. ;) (You left out the ‘u’.)
hrmm, really? Both links seem to work fine for me…Anyone else having an issue?
Yep, same thing for me. Missing the U.
But…but…when I put it into Bit.ly there is no U! D:
Yeah I see it too. It’s in the actual blog post for the comic this week. The link says Fyreni who is an imposter and decidedly not you. ;)
oh THAT twitter link! I thought you guys were talking about the link I posted TO this blog FROM my twitter.
Congrats on 50 comics and the one year anniversary! :) Looking forward to EK:L2 also. :)
I gotta say, the art has really improved since you started. By just going to the first comic then going back to this one, there’s a definite improvement (otherwise I’m just going crazy, which probably isn’t too inaccurate).
I expect more progress a year from now. lol
HAPPY 50!!
Id like to praise the mail carrier who stuffed the dragonhawk into the mail box. They are gifted yes?
well i tell ya one thing, they dun care for animals
(to Roan)
Congratz on the achievement! By the way, my guildie has earned his 100th mount today, too.
Happy 50 Fyre, and you deserve a break! Also, lawl at the 100 mounts. Just did that recently, got the dragonhawk and stared at it for a few moments…
“But but..the ravenlord mount I farmed to get this achievement looks better than the prize!”
I’m… still stuck on 98 mounts… *cry*
When I got my 100 mounts, all I got was an Albino Drake mount. Stupid alliance mailperson. Grats on the 50 comics!
As someone that has never had the urge to acquire the mount that is given upon acquiring 100 mounts, I’ve got to say that’s the cutest interpretation of a… *looks up the name* …Dragonhawk that I’ve ever seen. It kind of looks like a phoenix at a glance. ^_^
Yay! The big 5-0! I hope there are many more to come, my dear. ;)
Best of luck on EK, as well! How long a short film are you shooting for, anyways? I mean, if everything’s already built, then just think of it as a couple of long scenes! :3
You can do it!
I just saw Emergency Kindergarten for the first time thanks to that link. Dear god my sides hurt from laughing too hard.
It’s fantastic not only to see your great webcomic has really taken off over the last year, but that it’s done by fellow Albertans!
/drink Fyreuni
Hey! I’m not Albertan! >_>!
Lesson Twoooooo! I wonder who’ll be on the detention list this time.
Probably still Thrush and I.
50 dailys done, well to that I say congrats. Come see me when you’ve done a thousand. Yes, those really long seemingly impossible achievements are easier when you have two toons and only one server. But I hate my server so much, it was good once. Then the free transfers came, the Good left. Now we just have the Bad, and the Ugly.
Ya know, I can’t help myself wishing you posted your comics just a touch bigger. You put so much detail into them that’s it’s awesome, but they still leave a nice gap on a 1980×1020 resolution. Then again, that may just be me wanting bigger pretties. XD Grats on 50 comics and the mount mount….boy that sounds redundant….anyway!
It’s such a habit to come by here every Friday evening after work. Even with the announced hiatus, here I am. “Wha… no new comi… oh yeah…”
lol! :)
YAY! HAPPY 50!!!!
My warrior is at 70 mounts, and after I do Netherwring I’m kind of at a loss. Argent tourney mounts, but so many seals…
Don’t forget the mounts from Nagrand, ALL the mounts for your faction (ground AND flying). Then there’s rare mounts like the polar bear mount from that daily at Brunnhildar Village, Baron’s mount, the ZG mounts, etc. And of course… the tournament mounts.
Hey, happy 50th! I just wanted to comment and say I really really love your art style. Your characters look really great, it’s so good it’s made me want to start drawing just so I can someday draw something half as good.
Keep up the good work!
Wow! 50! And, EK:L2! Soooo excited! I’m sure you’ve got a list a mile long of people wanting in on your comics, let alone an EK. I’ll be happy with this avatar for now!
just wanted to say very nice work on all your art work.Wish i could do have of that stuff but itt didnt teach me squit just a few 3dmax stuff. :(
YAY! I’m soooo happy I stumbled upon this comic! I recognized the drawing style as SOON as I saw it! I gasped and was like “OMG, Kelly has a whole COMIC!” So I subscribed and ooooh I’m so excited, hehe! I’m waiting for your comissions to open back up in the future so I can get my mother one of her druid for her birthday @ Christmas, oooooh! /excited
Ok it’s late and I’ve read like 30/50 comics so far…almost caught up…they’re so cute! It’s so cool to see how your drawing has gotten even fantastically better over the last…about five or six years I’d guess? Looking forward to more in the future when you aren’t so overwhelmed! =)
