Reflecting on April – June 2021

This is the time for a quarterly flashback where we look back at what happened over the last 3 months in the process of making DUALITY comic!

Scheduling episode updates over 4 different platforms

Right now DUALITY comic is updating on the website, Webtoon, Tapas, Patreon and Instagram with different types of contents at different speeds. Occasionally I will make a mistake updating content on the wrong platform or in the unintended format, and only later realize it and feel bad for it. Wondering fs there’s a better way to simplify the process to manage this better ..

Storyboards for V1C8

I’m currently at the last ACT finishing up with the 1st pass on storyboards and MAN … it feels like taking forever!

There an old Chinese saying: “行百里者半九十”

Roughly translated as: People who aim to walk 100 miles, most of them will give up once they hit 90 miles

Knowing that, I won’t give-in at coming close to the finish line!

Character designs for V1C8 – Queen Mother of the West

She is the manifestation of the Ivory Tiger – “Perfected Marvel of the Western Florescence and Ultimate Worthy of the Cavernous Darkness”

A very beautiful lady with a white tiger’s tail. Her weapon is a small fan made of her pet bird’s feather, it can blow wind that parries all physical attacks.

The bird pattern on her coat can transform into a giant crane | phoenix like bird called 三清鸟 (Tree Blue bird).

The name comes from the 3 different shades of blue the bird’s feather looks like under the sunlight

Darren helped me come up with color variations for her design:

Ivory Tiger Coloring Versions

With Q2’21 (2nd quarter of the year 2021) coming to an end, I’m looking forward seeing what life brings to me and the creation process of an original IP!
