Does the fact that DP now has an official canon continuation affect you while working on the comic

Like does the new canon stuff influence your own vision or has your vision for your reboot remained the same since you started?

Sorry it's taken so long to answer so I'll match with a long answer and update in my process, I'm so sorry lol

But no, an official canon continuation will not stop me from making the comic. And while I do own the new comic and plan on getting all the future official DP merch I can get my hands on, it wont effect my story in the slightest because I haven't read it. Plus I've already written my story and I'm very happy with it. I will someday read the new comic but not anytime soon, I'm just so happy it exists and that it's in my hands either way.

What might stop me (for a little bit at least) is a full on rebooted series, not a continuation/revival because the fandom has been around so long and we've all influenced each other in big or little ways. And since we're all playing in the same sandbox there's naturally some overlap. But this started as a pitch bible/proof of concept for a full on reboot of my own and if there's an active reboot airing I'd be very sad it wasn't mine (so silly I know lol but it's true).

What has stopped me is the a back and forth issue I have on the comic in general. I have found a style of comic I enjoy making, but I have gotten in my own head about it being stiff and bad. I know practice make progress and I'm getting more confident about it and also considering making it into a fic with art and slowly adapting it into a comic just so I can have some thing to post and put out there. But my iPad is dying and outside of sketches on paper I haven't been able to write or draw to the extent I'd like. I've been saving for a new one for a while now and about half way there but life happens and it takes a toll on my savings. So I'm trying to decide what's the best way to proceed and I have a lot of options and that's also a little overwhelming, which sounds silly typing out. But it's easy for me to feel guilt every time I try to commit to one game plan because all my best options rely on me getting a new iPad

Character reference sheets and two frames from the animatic! :3

update on fancomics!

Part (chapter) 5 of Romance in Rivendel (my celrond fancomic) is Sooo close to being finished y'all! Just a few more pages :) Also just finalized the scripts for Part (chapter) 6, and will be working on the thumbnails today for it :D Part 6 introduces Glorfindel btw ;)

Also for Of Blessed Thyme & Thistle (my farawyn + Eothiriel fancomic), I've finished all the thumbnails for Chapter 1! Will be 33 pages in total 😳

I'm hoping to really 'crunch' down and get a bunch of pages finished before the end of november (tis' tricky tho! I'm moving house in November so we'll see how functional i am this coming month LOL) for the Comic Crunch Challenge! 52 pages may be a bit ambitious, especially seeing as I Am in the middle of moving house, but even if I get just a couple pages done, I'll be happy :)

Anyway, I hope to create a bit of a buffer for both these comics, so that we can hopefully see some more consistent updates going forward :D

finished s2 of the reboot wooo!!

(that took a shorter time than i expected. reckon it's bc of the fic I've been rotating in my mind since i picked up the reboot again)

dont have as many thoughts for this one as i did for s1, but i will still compile them into an 's2 thoughts' post hopefully within next week?

this logan kinshift is making me REALLY want a deeper voice tho i am like drooling for T

I'm Taking A Break

Hey yeah so it turns out you can't take on infinite creative projects, one of which uses a lot of unfamiliar subject matter/technique, and also be going to school, in a foreign country, living semi-independently. That's. a lot of things. So! This blog will be going on a short break.

Will I come back to it? Yes! I still enjoy the concept. However, I may try to build up a bit of a buffer before returning, as I'm not a fast artist.

What about the asks? The asks in my inbox WILL get answered at some point when this blog returns! For that matter, the askbox will stay open over this hiatus!

What will the blog look like in the future? During this break, I'll still reblog winged mcyt fanart - in fact, my very erratic queue currently extends well into May as it is.

When I start up the wingmits again, I'll be working on ways to... minimize the amount of art I don't want to do. See, I love drawing the wings themselves, and other magical/animalistic features. What I don't love drawing... is people. This blog is somewhat good practice, of course, but it makes the wingmits less fun! And this blog is for fun! I'm not sure how exactly to reduce the humanoid drawing involved here, since it's kinda part of the point, but one idea I was given was to draw features directly onto the cubitos. I think this is hilarious and will definitely go on the idea pile, but I don't think it's the only solution I want to take. (Also, sometimes I WILL still draw the actual people involved! Just... probably not every single week, In Detail, like I've been doing)

I feel like I don't have a super solid "quick" art style yet; if I can manage to find a way to draw things that doesn't take me five hours and that I still like the look of, that'll definitely translate to the blog, but currently I'm just not there.

When will I be back? I don't want to give a specific date, because this is a "I'm figuring myself out" break, not a "I'm doing something specific" break. I also don't want to make the break too long - for my own sake as well as yours - so prooooobably mid to late June, when I'm home and out of school for the semester?

Thanks everyone for your understanding <3

making new verses means new ways of figuring out how to traumatize him :/

Self harm cw

Oh wow okay I knew I was having a bad day but I didn't realize it was this bad. The time between "I think I'm having a bad day" to "actively screaming while trying desperately to resist the urge to break my own fingers" was about 40 minutes. The last few months I've been making an effort for the first time in my life to not even bite or scratch myself when upset and I've failed three times in the last ten minutes but at least I've stopped quickly each time when I remember because I really really am trying. I'm trying. It's just so fucking hard and I want to snap my bones, so not even biting is nearly impossible. I took my PRN and I texted my dad and I just have to make it until he gets home tonight around 10. I can do that. Seven hours. I can make it seven hours without hurting myself. I can.

anyway i never really wrote fluff's actual meeting of the other three in atbb so i think im gonna make him have a panic attack about it

[brinnanza]

life is not worth living if I can't make art

[daz4i]

i am soooo good at thinking up ideas and going "oh i should do [thing]" and then never following through

[thethingything]

okay time to try and journal my way through whatever weird shit my brain is doing and hope that maybe in the process I'll end up writing down what we did over the last few days since I forgot to do that too

[jaelijn]

That little names discussion we had the other day was honestly so refreshing. Most new B7 stuff I see these days (not limited to tumblr or even strictly fandom) ranges from "meh" over "not this again" to "i've never disagreed more".

I want to write, but I have absolutely no energy to do anything other than exist and maybe garner enough attention to play games. Everything else is bottom of the barrel, scraping it together energy. I’m hoping that as our guest goes back home and the weekend passes that maybe I’ll be up and running a bit more.

Still, thanks for being so patient with me! It means a lot!

My shitty flute playing gave me a headache but now I know I can play at least one undertale song
