Yes, I know, this month has been one of the most inactive, but there are some reasons, next month I start university so I've been preparing the paperwork, TT.
In other news, this month you have several things going on: the novel, the drawing of St. Louis, and Honolulu are still on hold, but as you've seen, I'm really working on animations and Koikatsu galleries.
The reason for this? On September 13th, I'm starting "Digital Design and Animation" at university. I think you're more or less getting the idea: I want to do more specific animations, of characters and stories I create. I want to turn the DXD girls saga into a complete animation and not just a static drawing of them without clothes. That's what it's all about.
Also, in case no one knows, I already have all the scenes I'm planning for Inotsuwa in Koikatsu, Himiko, Isabella, and Tasmania. As a bonus, a possible future generation of girls will be uploaded after the existing three. They're already created and, in fact, appear in the Pixiv post. You just have to have a good eye to identify them. xD
Some projects I had planned as drawings will become Koikatsu galleries, either before and after or with scenes during what you already know (Patreon doesn't allow you to say).
The project I'm showing on camera is a 40-second animation related to Miku Hatsune, the virtual diva.
Some of you, members of the private Discord, have already seen the animation in its current state. Being my first completely personal animation, it's pretty good in my opinion. This new month, it will be published with sound if I can manage to get clues to help me.
Personally, this month hasn't been very progressive on the novel either. Those who have been on Discord know that there was a brief hiatus because I got a cut on my hand that went between my pinky and ring fingers, which left me relatively incapacitated for 2 or 3 days. And because of college, I couldn't complete Chapter 6. To make up for it, this chapter will also have a drawing featuring one of Isabella's daughters, the current queen, Anna. The "queen of the dawn," since her hair is a color similar to the dawn sun.
In general, I'm going to branch out into two things from this project: the first is to illustrate the novel and make a PDF file like an illustrated novel. The second is to find an artist capable of drawing from chapter 1 to the last chapter, which will be an epilogue showing the current and future artists in this saga. I'll be doing the first with images from Koikatsu, Clip Studio, and a little support from an illustrator friend. The second will be more long-term, whether someone is interested or I'll pay for the related work, because I feel my skills are as an illustrator, not as a mangaka or comic creator.
It had to be said, and it was said xD.
Thanks to the members of the Discord that the Earls and Dukes have access to and are actively participating:

And the other Discord members who, despite my relatively continued inactivity this time, remain active on Discord, and I see them actively on Patreon and Pixiv.
Likewise, I thank everyone who is here, and I hope to continue counting on you in the future. :3
Look forward to Miku's animation as well as her monthly gallery.
