In the quest to reduce our e-mail workload and provide more content for everyone, we're going to try something new- a monthly public Q&A.
It'll work similar to the Sketch of the Month voting, but with a little variation.
We'll start with three categories for questions:
Business, Lore, and Character.
- Business questions can include how-to stuff about art, writing, marketing, printing and publishing, crowdfunding- stuf...

That feeling you just got?
...That's what it feels like to see the future.
To test your prophetic powers, tune in Friday and see what the next Prelude update looks like.

Say what you will about Tendril- he learned from his mistake in Volume 3. Anyone willing to learn can't be all bad!
Lilith, on the other hand, might have benefited from Piccolo's most infamous combat dictum.

Just a quick peek at the current state of the Dreamkeepers video game.
Apologies for the jerky video- the game played smooth on my end, but Picarto was chopping things up a bit.
At this point in development Mace's range of motion (thanks to concept sketches) is increasing nicely. The Hive Bats aren't doing much yet- and they can't even attack.
Perfect difficulty level for David.
I'm beginning to appreciate the different lighting engines even more, now...

This week's Prelude update- Bobby gets a cold splash of... Let's call it reality.
Stay tuned here- next I'm posting a brief video sample of how the DK video game is looking so far.

The Dreamkeepers forum is back! http://www.dreamkeeperscomic.com/forum/
A glitch put it down for a stretch, but now it's up and working fine. Good time to pimp the features- make an account for yourself, with a side profile for your OC. Automatic die roller in the RP section, and more.
Enjoy, and thanks to our secret genius for fixing everything up!

You didn't think they only came in one size?
We haven't seen 'em in the graphic novels yet, but we will. Sandmen can be constructed in a variety of ways, and the Sand Golem is considerably larger and more formidable than your standard Sandman.
Our video game buddy was over this week, so we splurged again and sketched up a range of enemies we've been planning for the game. Spike Pukers, Hive Bats, Sand Golems, and more- samples to come.
We also drafted the ra...

E-mail me within the next 3 days ( Dreamkeeperscomic@gmail.com) and give me an address, and I'll send you ten Volume 1's.

UberQuest Volume 2 is on the verge of success- if you can, help out by joining their Thunderclap here: https://www.thunderclap.it/projects/60229-uberquest-v2-kickstarter
We're going to help by offering to draw one of the characters from UberQuest.
Which character- and doing what, you ask?
Well, that will be up to the Volume 2 Kickstarter ...

This month's sketch- Vi taking care of a baby Mace.
At this point, Vi would have been maybe 6 years old- I don't think she had a terribly maternal personality as a kid, she had other things on her mind.
But when there's nobody else to rely on, somebody's gotta shelter the Soft Things from the Loud Idiots.

Thank you again for supporting our efforts- I'm happily at work lately on Volume 5, SKIRMISH card art, and even a bit of progress on the video game- thanks to you guys. E )
