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

please help your local disabled trans man being fucked over by its job

howdy! i'm nate and i currently work as an in-home caretaker for elderly and disabled folk! however, around 2 months ago my longterm client passed away very unexpectedly which left me without work for 2 weeks.

after that i did get a new client, but last monday (march 31) i got a call (at fucking 8:30 am. woke my ass up.) saying i didn't need to come in bc her daughter (who was in the process of moving in w her) is taking over as her caretaker. which like. fair.

BUT between the fact that she was always in and out bc of doctor appointments (also very understandable), and the fact that it has now been another week and a half since i've had hours to work, on top of the initial 2 weeks i was out, i'm uhhhhh hurtin a bit.

i've been checking with the manager every like 2-3 days to make sure there still aren't any clients i can take, literally just called today, but as of now i'm just sitting around with bills to pay and no way to get an income for who knows how long. SO.

IF you'd like to help out and you want something for your money there aint a lot i can offer, but i can do tarot readings, i can kinda draw (very slowly bc my hands r fucked up), do a bit of graphic design, write, and idk if you wanna pay me for something else send me a message and we can figure it out.

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

maybe channeling everything into a blank word document will help me.

I hate when people say 'congratulations! you've made it through the worse bit' when you come out of surgery; like what you mean that's the worst bit? It was the worst bit for you. I was unconscious for that bit. Your job is done the moment I'm back home. Now's when the medical and isolation trauma begins.

Personally I think the worst bit is the lifelong disability but also the part where you run out of groceries and just kinda have to hang out hungry until you've recovered enough that you're allowed/able to lift things again. That part also sucks.

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?

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

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

finally getting new glasses frames

according to the shop my previous ones were in 2016 so my previous rx but i rarely wear glasses

partially because since i rarely wear them i'm not used to having to turn my whole head to look as with contacts you can just move your eyes but you do that with glasses and you're no longer looking through the right part of the lens so i get a bit sick to my stomach from the apparent motion resulting

but also i relied on others' recommendations for the glasses and they were... like, small lenses. maybe looked professorial wearing them but they ended up not being comfy (see above) plus i didn't like their look

so this time i chose for myself because i'm a dult so it's on me
