Revised Cover Art (Patreon)

Hi everyone, thank you once again for your support the past month. As promised, we'll be having a new update today, however the comic release will be postponed towards the end of month as I am still knee-deep in applying the new story revisions across all 32 pages.

Here's a sneak preview of the new cover art for Meatier Showers issue 6, slated for a Further Confusion 2016 launch in 14-18 January. Those of you who have already looked through the contents of SIDE A will find this image familiar. It is actually based on the same panel where Pridestar first introduces his new "boyfriend" to Tanz and Groover.

The challenge of creating a comic book cover art is that you're in essence trying to summarize (in my case) 32 pages of content all onto one single page, and at the same time design it in a manner that is attractive and marketable - something that would draw returning fans and first-time readers to pick the book up at conventions and sample through.

The reason for going with this design was primarily because the previous 2 books were stories written as part of a larger story arc focusing on Pridestar as a protagonist. The 3 books "One More Time", "Harder,  Buffer, Faster, Stronger" and the currently work-in-progress issue 6 aka, "Battle Of The Bulge" will be combined together as a full trade paperback collection that chronicles Pridestar's misadventures in love.

As of this writing, I'm down to the last two pages of Meatier Showers 6 and figuring out how best to end of the comic based on the new amendments. After further experimentation and brainstorming, I've managed to include some original muscle & size growth scenes from SIDE B as well.

With the next update, a fresh new .pdf file will be sent directly to all processed accounts containing the new introduction scene. In fact, the pages have already been produced, just that they aren't lettered yet. It is incredibly challenging for me to switch to my "writer mode" while rushing against time to bust out the last pages while in "artist mode", so the delay largely rests on the fact that I do need to take a conscious effort in switching between the two mental states.

That's all for now, thanks again for supporting this project and hope you like how the new cover is looking!
