Sunday Post (pt2) - 2016, and 2015 and back archives

We're going to start off the mid and high tier specific benefits by getting caught up on the archives, starting with some OLD stuff - we're talking some pre-Sofi material in there!  There's also lots of sketches and incomplete drawings that never made it to a gallery, but shed some interesting light on the ways my style bounced around in the early days.

2013-2015 was a rather slow period.  I believe I was still coming to grips with using a tablet (in GIMP, AND with no pressure sensitivity!), and I was still getting down Axle's design.  This also include pre-Sofi era stuff, including an old sheet was I was working out her design and picking out her name (the candidates to start were Sofia, Mila, and Yumi), and also had an old backstory that never materialized that involves her going around the Galaxy at Large with a small starship crew.  Some elements stuck around, though.  The gods of the Wheel, while not present in most of my modern stuff, still serve as the de-facto religion of the setting Sofi and Axle reside in.

2016 was... remarkably productive, apparently!  I was taking commissions towards the end of the previous year, and I was high on the inspiration of Sofi.  I was also beginning to stream much more, and the social aspect must have really helped in the creative process.  2016 was also the year that spawned both Holly and Mirig, both of whom were originally designed to just be horny OC's to use in more lewd works that I accidentally developed into complete characters.  Also also, my first big sequence commissions, both for Yowzah!

I'm sure there's a lot of other details that I'm forgetting, but I'd be more than happy to field some questions to jog my memory about my early work if anyone has them!
