[News] What's for the summer and stuff + a small image dump, unfinished comics etc.
Hey there,I rarely do news posts nowadays, but decided that it's fitting to do one around just now.
I'll start with the most important part! The Planned Comics for July and August:
Slimy Origins: I have enough ideas for 3 more chapters, but I intend to wrap it up by the end of the Summer!
The Violet Thread: Currently in the works, I should be done by Sunday!
The Shifty Scientists: Next chapter after either The Violet Thread or Slimy Origins. This next chapter WILL take a while to finish, but I have a really really wild idea for it. I just hope I can manage it!
I still have around 6ish chapters to go with this series. Here is the list what to expect (though subject to change):
2 more chapters with Cassie alone
1-2 chapters with Eli alone
1 chapter that focuses on older characters from Slimy Accidents
1-2 finale chapters
A Virgin's Wish 2: I've been putting this series off for a good while now and it's really about time to continue it. We've had a beautiful conversation with Adrian a few weeks ago that we can start working on it after Code: Grow 2 then I couldn't properly prioritize so when I released Code: Grow 3 he messaged replying to my old message... rightfully so.
In plans, but not yet confirmed comics for the summer:
Code Grow: With the 3rd chapter, the story is concluded, however I have several spin-off ideas with more varied transformations. I'll share a few things later about it. The spin-off might not start until I conclude at least one of my on-going series!
Five Night's At Ifrit's: This might be interesting in execution. If you remember I shared a small concept post a while ago talking about this nonsensical idea. Now I have laid the foundations for this comic and a teaser short is nearly finished for the past two weeks now. But since I don't yet know when I'll start to work on the first chapter I haven't yet showcased the teaser. This comic might not just focus on expansions, but will be a bit of a branching with 1 protagonist and 5 different dragon women with a different flavor.
A mix of small one-shots, maybe a beach story... Maybe a muscle expansion short... I haven't done one of those in ages.
Comics put on hold indefinetly:
20 years later...: A short story about the two Ashley's going on a weeklong retreat after raising two of their kids into adulthood. You can see 4 unrefined pages in the image dump that would've covered it.
Slimy Accidents remake: Considering it was still one of my most popular series despite it's heavy flaws, I was thinking of rewriting it... somewhat. Focusing more on Rena and using a better style overall. You can also find the very first page of it in the image dump. The issue was with the Slimy form. It doesn't translate well with this style sadly.
Goddess of the Land 2: The remake of my very first comic series. Last year I made the first remake chapter but haven't yet continued every since. I was thinking about it recently, even drafted up the characters for it, but haven't yet started. Not sure when I'll start on it
My Inner Succubus: I previously talked about this. I still so want to revisit this story since I think the full premise is very good from a story perspective but it lacks the "wow, this is so hot" factor until the very end. I'm not sure if you're interested in a story that's mainly drama and until the very end mostly character developing happens only with little to no action... Egh... We'll talk about this later. Might as well shoot up a vote.
Okay, comics aside, let's talk about something else. Maybe about the TCG cards!
After two months of doing these:I'm really pleased how many of you started supporting me on higher tiers with the TCG card idea. Though I admit, I underestimated just how much work is to try and write the stories and releasing a set every two weeks might be a bit too much for me. I still intend to do one set every two weeks, don't worry! But in case of a heavy burnout I might adjust the two week deadline with a few more days.
The future of TCG:I was thinking a lot about it. Right now the monster girl series is still on-going, but I need to know where to draw the line. I think the last card in the series will be 10. Which means all series will have 10 cards in it.
"Does this mean there won't be any more monster girl cards?"
"Absolutely doesn't mean that! I wish to explore more series other than just monster girls, but there might be a Monster Girls series 2 in the future."
Reruns:
If you remember, I said that I usually keep 1-2 sets active at a time, which means older sets are currently not available. But I plan to return them eventually. When the second or third set hits I'll be starting to rerun them alongside with the new series.
New series:
I currently have two new series ideas in mind:
The Jobs Series which covers various characters in their respective profession... In an interesting way wink wink
The Goddesses series which will cover different godlike aspects of said characters
I will be shooting up a vote about it soon!
The image dump:
Yeah so. The image dump is actually quite curated. Most of them were past ideas for comics that never came to be or some kind of short experiments. Feel free to ask about any image if it takes your fancy. I'll gladly tell you more about them!
The ExLa-verse:
Have you ever wondered if my comics are all connected? Like not, but I don't care! Come check out my little site where you can see how -mostly- all the characters in my stories related to each other.
It's still missing some of the older characters and the site is very much in beta, but it's fun as hell! It also features some concept characters that haven't yet appeared in my comics - and some likely will never appear -
Many thanks to RainbowYoshi for this one!
Website:
Also we're working on a website remake with RainbowYoshi which will launch soon! (It really should've launched for a while now, but I was lazy to tell him to do the transfer lol). It'll work very similarly, but will have it's own page dedicated to the TCG's for better access. Also I'm planning to do a surprise new feature that you'll likely enjoy!
End word:That's about it! Thank you for reading my long rambling and also thank you for supporting me! I couldn't do it without all of you! 💜
See you soon at my next comic!
