March 2017 Q&A

Other question:

To Juniper: How'd you get so far into the cursed jungle? Isn't there a giant wall blocking everything?  

Juniper: Oh! I- um - well, there are guard posts that can help you get over the wall and down into the jungle.
Juniper: Getting permission is complicated, unless you bride the guards.
Juniper: Not that people do that! I- okay I did that!!
Juniper: Please don't tell anyone!
Juniper: The guards won't let contraband back out of the jungle even if y...

Color Question

First off, as the expansion is getting inserted into the comic that means the page numbers are about to jump (next page will be '55' instead of '52').

Anyway, we're going to fullcolor the next page (55) as well. Now for a minor spoiler - there will be sexual content on page 56, followed by several pages where other stuff is happening (that's not sexual content).

We were thinking of also fullcoloring 56, and having the next several pages be B&W to make up for it.  The issue...

You Can Only Buy - Page 1

Hrm, I wonder how confusing the outskirts of town / back home boxes are.

This comic, like all other not-Wheel O' Doom minis thus far, occurs in the same multiverse but not the same world as Plant Food. (WoD is not the same multiverse)

February Mini Concept Art

So, there was some confusion as to what 'Kitsune' was referring too - Eldrik designed the humanoid form as being Safi-like.  I suspect the submitter intended for the Kitsune to be full anthro in her humanoid form.

So tell us what you'd prefer - we can change the concept for the kitsune to make her full anthro when not a fox (or full human). Also, tweaking outfit and such is doable as well!

Smooth?

So, Eldrik has been drawing all the character's nether regions as clean-shaven. This is mostly because he'd have to remember to draw them otherwise. :P

I'm wondering how you feel on this matter! Bush or no bush?

January Q&A

  

Answers to other questions:

For Rika: What exactly is the nature of your relationship with Safi? 

Rika: "Um... we're friends? We also work together as part of a little mercenary band!"

Rika: “I guess that doesn’t exactly cover it though? I mean, we’ve been through a lot together.”

Rika: “I don’t have any siblings, but I sort of imagine this is what it would feel like?”

Rika: “Or maybe ‘best friends’ would cover it.. a...

Possible Reward Tier Changes

Yesterday I had a lengthy discussion with Eldrik in the stream about the upper tiers - since the holiday drop at the end of the year left us with one >30$ patron, and that patron is generally fine with things being tweaked a bit, we felt this was a good time to do such tweaking.

What we were pondering:

> Add a NEW reward tier to $40, and move Q&A to $30.

This is where I need your opinions! The tier we were thinking about adding is the following:

$40 - Creati...

December Q&A

To answer the immedeate follow up questions: Rika's strongest healing spell -

A) Can't be cast by her this close to the sealing wall anyway.

B) Would not reverse a full transformation like what Amber has gone through.

C) Would be very usefull with respect to keeping someone fully modified like Amber alive in the long term, should they somehow escape.

D) Could reverse a partial transformation, but again, sealing wall.

Patreon doesn't give me enough...

Mini Comic Question

So, this month's mini comic is 4 pages (next month's will definately by 3)! I'd like your thoughts on the rough sketch version of the comic. We still have some placeholder text (Safi's last line will be replaced with.. somthing.. I've been playing around with some options), and the dialog in general is still being tweaked and such.  Some expressions will be changed as well, etc. It's rough!

Anyway, sketches are attatched!

January Submission Thread and Voting Results

[b]Who Can Submit:[/b]

  • Patrons at the $10+ Tier
  • Patrons with enough piggybank credit (from the $5 tier) to count as $10+ for one month.

The vote was very close! We had a 2-2-2 tie for most of the duration between "Mermaid Hunt", "Wheel O' Doom III", and "Extra Main Comic Pages", but a someone tossing their bonus vote into the ring made it 2-3-2.  And so our winner is... Wheel O' Doom III (Safi/Mimic Suprise)!!

The Pharaoh Concept Art

Page 32 of the main comic is below.

About this concept art - I normally add some stuff, tweak things, etc, but as some of the additions veer a bit far this time I wanted to get the opinion of the folk that voted for/submitted this option.

Brief summary of tweaks (*Spoilers* I suppose):

Novemeber Color Drive!

We already had someone that'd prefer to remain anonymous color drive "the rest of mini comic #1 (Wheel O' Doom) page 3" and "Panels 1&2 of Mini #1 Page 4", so we don't have many slots left this month!

Running out of slots hasn't been an issue thus far though, if that starts happening we'll be more specific as to when people can start / can no longer drive more panels in a month.

Plant Food 29

The chef had told his wife he'd stay sober the whole trip, probably didn't pick the best place to hide his breaking of that promise.Question: What do you think is going on with Katarina? I want to know if the effect we went with gives the correct impression.

Sketches

Attached are the early sketches for pages 1-28 of plant food, and all of the mini comics thus far!  On prices - all prices are $5 cheaper than the ones on the panels (for the sketches with $$ amounts on them, anyhow).

This month's page of random sketches (coming sometime before or on Halloween) has a more jovial Happy Halloween theme.  If folks don't mind I'd like to make that one temporarily available to all patrons and maybe publicly.

Plant Food #28

And so the first Cameo Appears! Katarina was designed by her patron for this comic, so this is the only place she's been.  Originally the misc chars had a much smaller plot presence, but I decided I wanted them to have more than a few panels and.. well, it led to me overhauling a fair bit of plot to give them meatier roles.  I think the comic benefited from it, though!I also have acquired the 1-page Non-Exclusive Licensing Agreement we'll be using (well, the actual document will have "...
