Just a little update on what has been going on lately.

- My attention is mostly focused on the "Serina, the star guardian" story. I have been iterating on the designs to practice and refine them, and spending a lot of time starting to detail the story into chapters and everything.

- The whole Serina thing is all starting to unblur into what could be a really nice magical girl story. I feel like I have to do something with this story, as it is maybe or even probably the most solid story I ever came up with. Or at least I feel that way. No plot holes like in Victory Girl, as well as some interesting metaphors. It looks quite promising.

- Because of all that time spent on writing and the time spent on sketching, there is no finished illustrations for my DA page.

- If some are interested I guess I could share more of those WIP/practice experimentations. Only the sketches, though. Because the script things are in my mother tongue (French).

- I intend on keeping practice up by doing a mini-series of 4 panel "yon koma" strips featuring Serina and friends. It would serve many purposes: practice for me, introduction to the story for you, and a tiny bit of parody for both.

- The final form of the Serina story isn't yet decided. This is why I left this little poll on my page : I kind of wanted to see if something more experimental, in between a novel and a comic, could be an option for that story. It might become a comic in the end, I don't know! But I want to know all my options so I can properly adapt the best to the circumstances and resources available.

- My little post for easter showed once again the power of boobs. I guess that I kind of build an audience wanting cleavage over the years, and I probably encouraged that myself. So I don't blame you.
Sadly the Serina story doesn't focus on sexyness but rather on cuteness. There is kind of a sexy chick in it (a "secret character" I haven't revealed), but even if there is, it's not going to be a story in which I'll show the sexy lady without clothes on any occasion. She is just a chick who happens to be pretty beautiful.
Hopefully I won't be alienating all of you and some will be able to get into the story despite the lack of boobage.

- My shift is motivated by my family as you probably know it. I kind of feel sorry for my fans who like sexyness, and I can't blame them.
But I realized I should not miss a potential opportunity because of an audience that only gives me Internet comments. Don't get me wrong, I appreciate those a lot, and I would lie if I said I didn't like drawing sexy anime girls.
But I also feel that unless something more tangible was involved in this online relationship ( like collaborative work or money...), I don't really have to feel forced to do something.
And because of that, I can't just ignore the idea and possibility of changing things a bit and putting together an actual story that would be fine for a wider audience.

- Serina could also become my first manga to publish on the online site we are probably going to do. Remember that? Coding this site will probably force me to "not draw" a little more, but if the project gets done, I feel like it deserves a well thought out manga with a wide appeal to be put in. Because of that the project needs to be refined beforehand.

Hope you understand. Hopefully Serina will reach a more stable point soon where I can start sharing more about it. Hopefully the first little test strips should come pretty soon.
