Noise Floor – 2.17

As I was colouring this page I realized a continuity error on page 16, with Seret's dangle on his ear. I'm not sure if I ever explained what the dangle as - it's his fathers, from his military uniform, the head-dress they wear which denotes rank. This is kind of like wearing the dog tags of a family member. But on Page 16 I drew it all on the wrong ear. An easy fix, and it should be fixed by the time this page uploads. **magic**

Ages ago when i was doodling up aliens I drew the Sakitafi, but wasn't really sold on the design. But then I needed a background alien in chapter 1 and ended up drawing a couple in the background, so they're canon now. This is the first time I've drawn one up close, and this one in particular was inspired by my friends cat, who has a very disturbingly alien face for an earthbound creature. 

And speaking of cats, Toggle is settling in nicely. He's still getting used to the noises and activities of a human house (as opposed to the shelter, and before that, a feral colony, and before that, unknown??), but he's working hard at winning over Widget.

I have an instagram just for my cats, if you ever want random cats showing up in your feed: Widget and Toggle

And a reminder, that as always, if you want to read the comic early and support the creation of it, I have a Ko-Fi! There's also a Discord group if you want to come chat with other readers! It's pretty empty right now, just waiting for some folks to come make a home there!

 

Exodus almost complete!

We are nearing the end of chapter 1! Just a few more pages. 

When I started publishing online, I had a buffer of 8 pages. My buffer is down to slightly less than 2, and I really hope I can keep up without missing any updates before the end. Comics are a lot of work!

Once Chapter 1 is complete, I’ll be taking a couple months off to rebuild my buffer before I start posting chapter 2. Draft 1 of chapter 2 is done, just doing some fine tuning and planning and storyboarding.

I have a vague plan to tell a side story of some sort during the hiatus, something sketchy and easy to draw. My favourite webcomic, Skin Deep, does Reader Questions, but I honestly don’t think I have A, enough readers to be able to fill updates with, and B, enough content to spark questions I can answer that isn’t already planned to be revealed in-universe! I could post art of some aliens I’ve designed but I’m torn between sharing them early, and waiting to reveal them over time in the story! It’s hard! I have so much planned! 

Thank you to everyone that has joined me so far, I appreciate each and every one of you!
