Dachi reference materials - HD
Added 2025-01-29 23:59:35 +0000 UTCThis is the finalized design of Dachi that I would use if I revisit SWL in the future. There are some minor differences to the way he appears in the current project, which has actually not been entirely consistent as I experiment with and modify my workflow π
When I started coming up with a story for Summer Won't Last, the initial idea was for a longer, slower burn story. However, after a rocky beginning and a lengthy hiatus, I decided to make this initial iteration of the comic into a standalone episode.
I'm still heavily considering doing SWL the way I originally imagined it. Perhaps renaming this current story to "Summer Won't Last: Pilot" or "Chapter 0", haha. It would be a much longer-form story that expands a lot on Levi and Dachi's backstory and history of friendship, as well as their future. I would be interested to know how interesting it would be to readers.
Thank you so much for supporting my work! Your feedback is much appreciated π―π

2025-02-04 23:47:41 +0000 UTCDon't worry! I'll leave my options open! I won't retcon it unless I feel that, by the time the story catches up to this point in their relationship, it would benefit from a slightly modified premise/outcome. I definitely, deeply, appreciate that people have taken so well to them as they are, in this self contained narrative.

2025-01-30 05:29:29 +0000 UTCIf you do it, make it Chapter 0 and not a pilot! Donβt retcon what youve done so far! It may have been a quick development but itβs still been really cute and endearing
