Wrapping up the comic (so far!) (Patreon)

Note: Skip to the bolded question below if you hate reading long posts but still want to help me out with the comic!

Hiya friendos! So I've decided to cut off the comic so far and end it on page 20, which means there'll be 2 more pages (19 and 20) uploaded here before a big, fat "To Be Continued" will be slapped on it. It'll give me a chance to work on some smaller Patreon projects (like much, much shorter comics), and really polish up the next part.

Since I started this comic, I've been doing just about everything wrong: I didn't write the plot out, I don't thumbnail the pages, and I don't even really put enough though into panel layout. Each page was me, opening a canvas, and deciding then and there what will happen next in the story. Stepping away like this and working on smaller comics will give me a chance to learn more about what makes a good comic into a great one.

If you're curious of my reasoning: even after pausing on this comic for the past couple months, I found that page 18 felt much more technically impressive than previous pages, likely because of all that time I spent practicing with other things. So, if that can happen with drawing ability, I expect it can happen with writing, too! So, when I start part 2 in the future, it'll be better than ever!

That said, I'm sitting in front of my empty canvas titled "page 19" and realizing I'd like to ask for your participation in it once more before it wraps. My question for you is a simple one:

What should happen?

I know. It's super vague, open ended, and doesn't guide you much in answering the question. But that's the point! I've got 2 more pages here to lead into a lull for the story between parts, but I just wanna know what you might like to see happen. Leave your ideas below! I'll poke through them once I get really crankin' on these last pages and incorporate whatever I see that plays well with the characters.

And while I've got you here....

... how about you let me know what sort of short-form comic you'd like to see after this! I'm open to lots of stuff so just let loose, I'd love to hear from y'all!

And, of course, thank you all for your patronage. You've all been lovely to me and I look forward to hearing from you. <3

P.S. I'm gonna draw that nargacuga for y'all eventually, I promise.
