180 – We Come in Feast
Can’t have a typical Filipino celebration without some lechon, mmhm! Oh, and Merry Christmas everyone!
Oof. They might be silhouettes, but drawing the last panel still took some actual figure drawing. Surprisingly, I had an easier time drawing them aside from them being silhouettes. Perhaps it’s because I’ve just started wearing glasses this month? Combined with turning up the monitor brightness whenever I work, I can certainly see more detail!
The villagers are Blue, Navy, and Hothead’s characters.
And yes I’m referencing Undertale, Doom, and Goblin Slayer in the alt text

Transcript
[At the village center...]
Isog: Heyyyyy!
Villager A: Hey, you.
Villager B: Aren't cha supposed to be on guard duty?
Isog: Feasting is an important part of guard duty, I'll have you know. And I brought hungry guests!
Myan: [drools]
Isog: Everyone mingle for a bit while I drop off my stuff.
Keith: H-hey...!
Keith: ...nice uh, evening eh?
Cruz: Is that lechon* I see? (roast pig)
I’ve just realized but, Isog’s design really reminds me of Polt from Monster Musume? ‘,:lc
It is “Polt” since I was asking for character design ideas for the cultists. But of course, I can’t (and don’t want to) use her exact design of course.
Any pancit there? I mean, I wouldn’t eat it (picky as hell for no good reason), but maybe if there’s lumpia too?
Maybe. It is a party staple, especially for birthdays (noodles = long life). I was thinking that they’re eating “boodle fight” style (just Google it) . And it’s apparently used by soldiers, which is kinda appropriate for these warrior women.
The only good pigs are the ones that are roasted over charcoal.
Oh, bacon and ribs are also good pigs.
And ham, which is the traditional thing to eat for Christmas here in the Philippines (at least where I live)
And yet my (Pinay) mom insists on turkey, being in America. Ham is so much better.
I’ll eat whatever haha, though turkey is here soo expensive
For real? I’ll trade you all the turkeys you want for some ham. Turkeys are a wild pest here…

I’d gobble those gobblers. :p
Or sausages!
