DEC2022 - POLL RESULTS!

Added 2022-12-27 12:46:36 +0000 UTC

As for the regular poll, you voted: Swirl's POV (the corgi!)

Perfect! Inspired by this decision, I sketched up a cover that will serve as the cover for now unless I think of a better design later which involves some of the story's plot elements or other minutiae I find would better define the comic as a whole. What do you think of the cover so far?

Further, I've drafted a sort of plot tree with your polls as branching paths, your decisions actively steering the story one way or another. All of these polls will be a this-or-that, 50-50-style poll with only two options (at the time of writing). Swirl is our protagonist, and we will vote to choose what Swirl does in each instance, sometimes big actions, and sometimes smaller.

As for the special poll, you voted: a page of sketches where you get a feel for the characters' forms and personalities

So I did as told, and made a page for each of our new characters! Each features lots of body parts and some example expressions, colors, and more that I plan to use in future work. Although I plan to render the comic, at first, in greyscale, I plan to occasionally accompany these pages with some colored illustrations! As usual, patrons will get access to both pages and illustrations before they're posted on any other platforms! Thanks again for your support!

And that wraps up our updates for 2022! Thank you all for your continued support - Happy Holidays, and Happy 2023! Look forward to the first pages in the coming year! (Oh, and please excuse me - the January polls will be posted a few days after New Year's... I wanna take some much-deserved "me" time. Thanks for understanding. Let's enjoy and relax!)
