Sooo yeah— this is an unusually spur of the moment idea for me, but it's kind of crystalized more and more over the past week so I think I wanna go for it.
Basically, my schedules looking pretty packed in the near future, polished-comics are gonna take a little longer than usual, and I could also just use a bit of a break from my established sets of characters.
I've been *gradually* trying to expand out into more long-form stories, but the next arc for the butlers is something I'm still kind of undecided on, and I want to try my hand at something outside of the twitter-formatted "four pages and nothing more" short series that I always tend to do. The script's still very tentative but it's looking like this is gonna be like, thirty to forty pages, but I'm aiming to make these pages *fast*, like, black and white, no finished lineart, no detailed backgrounds— I wanna see how much I can push out into more manga-shorthand stylings to get the idea of the scene across. And I want a sex scene that lasts longer than two pages! Tank is gonna take his *time* with these two.
A lot of you might not recognize these characters— dig back about four years on any of my gallery sites and you'll find a series of images featuring a nameless gator and otter in a hot-tub. Not giving too much away, but this will be a re-work of the original 'story', setting a proper scene and progression of events that carries *past* the point where the original left off. Unlike most of the comics I make, this was *never* planned and I am *not* giving myself much time to draft out this story, so we're just gonna hit the ground running and see how people feel about the end product. (Releasing sets of three or four pages at a time over god knows how long.)
