i've been sitting on this for a while.... i guess i got self conscious? this and all pages following may be subject to edits as i move forward! i'm trying to get over my habit of overworking art to the point of stiffness though, so i am forcing myself to share this as is for the sake of gathering momentum.
it has been really hard for me to move past the depression and shame fog to work on this, i have this terrible mental block when it comes to sharing anything sincere and personal. it feels vulnerable and embarrassing in a way that is paralyzing. but i trust my patrons to take my art at face value, so you're gonna be the first ones to see this! i won't be posting anything to twitter until i get a few more pages done and maybe solidify some design choices that i'm considering changing (i am undecided about her silly hairstyle and whether or not it should stay).
in any case . welcome to my little comic about mote. it has no cover yet so this is the first page. i may have my $15+ patrons vote on the cover composition because i have several ideas in mind
all pages are sketched loosely and written, although i'll be ad-libbing some as i go. i'll be working on page 2 during my stream tonight! hope to see you there
