a bit more vent and explaining
🕑 Added 2023-02-06 21:09:48 +0000 UTCafter making max design change, i felt like explaning a bit about what i am working on, i already made a post on twitter about it, and im gonna bring it to here because obviously you're my patrons and i want you to know.
before i didnt have a big public that liked my characters, i was light to do anything i wanted to my ocs. but now i have a whole patreon dedicated to it and people who follow me because of them and my concepts, so working on my script makes me incredbly scared and anxious to make the changes i want to, now that i have everything else involved. im paralized.
i created the first concepts of my story i guess 5-6 years ago? and its been just a blurry thing in my mind ever since, i only got back to it last year after i received a bunch of support from you guys and from my gf on the first concepts and short comics i made. but, after i actually SAT DOWN and studied a BUNCH, i realized nothing in the old version of my story felt right or made sense lol. so im sorry for making you fall in love with something thats gonna get destroid now, im learning, and im doing my ultimate best on this.
i furiously worked on this for days to get to the point where i decided to change max drasticaly, going back to the old version doesn't make sense anymore. (and trust me it was shit lol) i only had pieces of dialogues randomly setting in, and characters that didnt explore the theme in no different ways... basically they were all transmiting the same idea, so why make three different characters if they're all gonna tell the same point of view? i needed extremes. and max felt like she was floating lonely with no purpose to being on the script compared to the other ones, with her being a herbivore i am able to explore a much dif point of view, and its gonna make her relationship with alicia way more interesting if they come from dif places.
not gonna lie, its gonna come up a lot more changes from now on, and even the changes i made may change xD but i promise its only because im dedicated to make my story in the best form i can. i have to trust my guts, and most of all i have to understand i'll never please everyone.
the thing that makes me happy the most in all of this, is to know you all love my ocs so much, you actually care a lot about what i do to them. so thank you for loving what i do, at this point xD and also thank you all who are being receptive about it! :)
i hope you can understand me, a person with a deep passion for storytelling who's having their first real experience with it.

All part of the process! Looking forward to seeing how Al and Max got to know each other :)

It's your story, you have to tell it the way you want to. Max's species change was a bit of a surprise, but like you said it makes sense from a narrative view point.
