I really wasn't happy with how busy the last page I uploaded felt, so I thought I'd try a simpler colouring style/a more limited colour palette, just  to see how it turned out.

I ended up recolouring both of the pages.

 (Also made a couple of dialogue changes because I am not very good at letting things go.)

Despite my love for digital watercolour, I'm surprised by how much I like this. It's probably not as 'magical' or attention grabbing as the other colouring style, but it's more detailed and grounded. I think this could work well for the story because there'll be a much stronger visual contrast between scenes set in the real world, and dream sequences (which will stay painterly, like how I originally drew them).

I'll probably do the next few pages like this and see how I feel about it - and then I'll have to go back and re-colour some of the pages either one way or the other :)

Feedback would be very, very appreciated, thank you!

Really love this version much better then the last one (not to say that the last one was bad) This looks just hits on better for me. Also like how you aren’t just satisfying with your work and looks for way to improve yourself

I got it, actually! Patreon sent me an email about the comment (including the comment text) and then when I went to reply I couldn't find it, so I figured you'd deleted it? How strange. Anyway, thank you very very much - that was really thoughtful, and really helpful (I wasn't even expecting feedback on the dialogue changes and it's great to know how it shifts your interpretations of the characters, thank you!)

Thank you so much! Webcomics can make certain types of improvement a bit trickier because constant deadlines make it really hard to try new things. So I want to make the most of trying new things now that I am deadline free - as soon as I start posting this publicly I will have deadlines again XD

omg am so glad ;w; both that you got it and that it was helpful >////< an nuu I didn't delete it, if anything feels either patreon doesn't like it for some reason, cuz at the top of the comments it says "Load more comments 13 of 19" or of 20 now with this comment.. with all the comments currently visible and their replies set to show it shows 18 of 19 and I can't get it to show the one I posted, its really odd ;w; which I mean it was rather.. massive .//////. but I was freak'n out that some'n happened.. so I'm really glad you got it anyways n,w,n
