April Behind the Scenes
🕑 Added 2023-05-01 09:45:34 +0000 UTCI can't believe it's May already. April absolutely flew by. I hope everyone had a fantastic month!
First and foremost, I wanted to thank you guys again for the Kickstarter support, for helping Lynx and Ry, and for your continued enthusiasm for the story. Your likes, comments, and feedback always make my day. I can never thank you enough.
Volume 1 Paperback:
The second paperback arrived, and we're making final adjustments to the kerning/tracking. Also finding last-minute typos and grammar changes. It's a thick book - around 450 pages. I'll have newer pictures of it soon.
Volume 1 Audiobook:
The Audiobook is well under way. E.S. Marlowe recorded up through chapter 32 this weekend, and I'm working with Rachel Music for her to perform the side quest chapters.
I'm also working with GBS to design separate audiobook covers. I'm going for something more modern, and we're designing headphones for the girls. This is a very loose idea I threw together for the first Volume:
Volume 2 Paperback:
We pushed the release date back to September 1st, to give Chros and Cat more time to work. Chros finished Ceres vs the Mud Golem:
I shared the more detailed progress of Ravyn earlier, but here's a WIP of the full cover front to back. GBS is drawing Shulan/San Island.
Each of the first four books will feature the different islands. Still figuring out where to go after that.
New Armor:
As seen in the new chapters, Matt and his Party all received new armor! I had Kiora start working on these early last month. Here are the preliminary sketches:
I'll reveal the sprites as they come up in the story! Ai has a new Nyarlothep outfit, too.
Extra Art:
Rock is almost done with the Tristan, Destiny, and Lara artwork, and it is incredible. Quick sneak peek:
Skills Preview:
I've been putting a lot of work into revamping the Wizard skill tree this month. There are a lot of ways to twist the elements and shift their spells using Amplification to fit the situation. It's still a bit of a WIP, so numbers and wordings may change.
Thank you all so much again. See you tomorrow with a new chapter.
See you soon,
DB
