In the last one it was two characters per letter, with a <a href=\"http:\/\/www.avivor.com\/english\/?p=187\" target=\"_blank\">secret connection<\/a> between each following couple.

It&#8217;s one about conventions, fandoms, cosplay and family, and it has a lot of colourful hoops. Like, A LOT. Many more than I would have put there had I given some thought to how long it&#8217;s going to take to draw all of them in every single panel. But what doesn&#8217;t kill you makes you stronger, or at least slightly averse to the colour magenta.<\/p>\n<p><a title=\"Up to Four Players 76: Comic Can't\" href=\"wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/strip_076_en.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" style=\"width: 500px; border: 0px;\" src=\"wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/strip_076_en.jpg\" alt=\"Up to Four Players 76: Comic Can't\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<h4>Noisy Person Cards<\/h4>\n<p>James and Kat, from the podcasts <a href=\"http:\/\/oneshotpodcast.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">One Shot and Campaign<\/a> that I must have mentioned before, are in the middle of a Kickstarter campaign for their new game NPC &#8211; Noisy Person Cards, a party game for improving your character voice acting. We at Up to Four Players tried the beta version (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=SfMOYDIHkxs\" target=\"_blank\">see us on the Tube<\/a>) and it&#8217;s super fun, so I&#8217;m really looking forward to the final product, which will include a lot more illustrated cards from various artists, myself included. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.kickstarter.com\/projects\/oneshotpodcast\/noisy-person-cards\" target=\"_blank\">Check out their Kickstarter page<\/a>, and if it sounds like something you might enjoy, consider backing!<\/p>\n<p>Completely unrelated to their game, I&#8217;ve also done some more fanart of their Edge of the Empire party on the Campaign podcast, with clear Zootropolis influences.
