Project Update: A humbling experience plus real human art.
Hello!
Tim here, writer of Rabbit Stew. Some of you may know me, others may not.
My normal sphere of activity is writing role-playing games and running an independent publishing company that gets my games, and those of a number of other creators, out into the world.
In that realm, this first update would likely be celebrate our funding and thank everyone who helped us get achieve our goal.
However I'm creating a comic. Not something I have a proven form in? As of writing this, I am unfunded and completely at peace with that.
This is me stepping into a new world, pushing out from a familiar shore as I put it to Adam Holloway, a friend and fellow writer who also has a live campaign *.
That said, I've read enough comics to be inspired. I've also read a heap of books ** á la Good Will Hunting.
As with everything I do, I will put all I can into it to create something, rather selfishly, for me. This is how I've always worked: with the confidence that there are other people like me who will also want to see it.
It's exciting, but also humbling.
I'm also thankful to have found Ezequiel Rubio. I had almost given up on creating this comic until I discovered him in the depths of a thread on the hellhole that is Reddit.
On that note, here is a video of him drawing a page from the comic.
Over the coming weeks, I'll be dropping my thoughts about process: what I did definitely did wrong, what I think I did right and what the results were. I'll also be talking a bit more about this world I am bringing you into. A world that will follow the Wade family for several decades. I've already started work on part 2 and I intend to put a teaser in the back of this comic.
I'll also share some more pages. I might even mention Cowmageddon.
That's my pitch for you to keep following and maybe even back this project.
Feel free to ask me any questions in the comments of these updates.
That's all for now.
Wishing you a spectacular weekend.
