This poll is for everyone. This is just a general FYI poll because (dramatic pause), once I finish the two 'larger' projects I'm working on (the PokeHo choose-your-own we're doing, and a Wade comic about blue-balling) I'm thinking I'd like to really sit down and dedicate myself to a long form comic again. An actual story that I'll work on for a month or two. I've got two burning in my head (three, but one of them is too large for me to attempt, I've learned). 

1) Just finish the Ladybug versus The Cougar comic I was working on, the one I left hanging  a couple years ago. I'm not sure if there's much interest left for it, but I was already halfway (although I'd want to redraw the last couple pages). 

2). I'm feeling very nostalgic for Pokemon, and the related monster-girl/boy themes. I'm even replaying Moon Ultra right now, and I'm really enjoying it. I've got a whole story in my head about my own Pokemon trainer, based on watching the show and playing the games. His name could be anything, so Rocky Rhodes works, my bully alpha chad trope character. I'd do a comic that would basiclaly be a parody of a typical Pokemon game. Rocky turns 18, his aunt tells him to go get a PokeHo from the Professor. He gets a Geodude and fights his rival (a trainer we'd determine by a poll). I think the comic would go all the way up to him getting to the first town, and would end with teasing the first gym-leader. 

I would also be talking $100 commissions while working on this project, taking simple requests only.

How was Ultra Moon? Haven’t gotten my hands on that one

It's my first time playing this one. It's good, and I like most of the new Pokemon I've seen, and I really like the idea of regions having different variations of the same Pokemon. Like, I have a Meowth that's Dark rather than Normal, and it looks a little different. I love this idea, because it means that we really can imagine any variation of any existing Pokemon. I like imagining a Zubat that's Fire type. Obviously it's an 'easy' game, since it's meant for kids. I'm playing it mostly for the vibes.

I’ll always choose Ladybug, you know me ;) Also, the redrawing is interesting! Be bold, maybe you want to do a new version 💪🏼💪🏼

Thanks. I'm glad about how split the poll is, but it's good that Ladybug should win. Yeah, I intend to go backwards a couple pages just to redraw Ladybug's costume back to something closer to its original form, actually. I think my last two pages were so sloppy that I stopped working on it.

How do you make a request for a commission?

thanks for asking. Once I finish my current obligations (I really want to finish this one larger project by the weekend) I'll make a post here on Patreon saying I'm open (warning, the rate is going to be $200 this time, because I want to practice longer sequences, so I'll only be taking commissions of that size, I won't be doing the piecemeal stuff again).
