Stuff I'd Like To Do
🕑 Added 2024-02-05 02:08:37 +0000 UTCHi, I just thought I'd list out a bunch of stuff I'd like to do eventually. It's in no way a promise for any of it, it's just an exercise in where my thoughts are (constantly) at. Some of this stuff is stuff I've been talking about doing for years. Some of it keeps getting suggested to me, which is partly why I'm making this list.
Swords Episode #1000
- I think 1000 episodes will be the point where I need to make some big changes
- I'd like to have a much clearer focus on who the main characters are and their role in the world
Pitch a Swords TV Show
- Requirements : Make a pitch doc, then go pitch it
Kickstart a Swords Book
- Seasons 1-6 as separate books
- A 'Directors Cut' remastering the main story
- A 'Vertical Slice' of the best 50 episodes
New Swords enamel pins
Refresh Swords threadless store with new designs
Manufacture Quest Sprout DnD minis
Swords : Reforged
- Remaster the main storyline with new art, extra content and in chronological order
Swords : Side-Quests
- 10 page arcs that flesh out each side characters story arc with a beginning/middle/end
- Pay some other webcomic artists to make some of these
Finish Steel Tribe
- Make Steel Tribe a short one-shot graphic novel
Finish Merciless Dungeon
- The art is done, it just needs a lot of balancing
Possibly remaster Stars
- It doesn't feel particularly urgent, but maybe after 100 episodes it could be worth thinking about
And about 100 other things, but if they didn't make the list, I'm not thinking about them hard enough...

I have been dreaming of a Swords book for years. Putting one on my bookshelf right next to all my other favorites would be incredible!!!

It's not really about raising the art quality as much as it is about untangling the storyline, because I get daily complaints from people who are only loosely engaged with the overall plot. It's a problem worth solving, eventually.

Free opinion (and worth what you paid for it / not an artist / not telling you what to do). I've seen many artists say they want to redo their old work to bring it up to snuff to their current skills. Other artists have pointed out that if you continue to draw your skills are always improving. It is important to balance needs of moving forward vs benefits of reworking what you've already done. I'm sure I (and others) will enjoy the results of whatever you choose to do.
