Thought I'd give another update status post~! I have 5 episodes done in the 3d style and 8 to 9 to go. There'll be a new episode in the very beginning and I'm adding another episode in between 3 and 4. Currently I'm looking to have it all done by the end of the month, so we'll get back to updating regularly again after that~! :3 Here's a style comparison for you to show what it's going to look like comparatively.

Hi everyone! Quick announcement about why I haven't posted anything for awhile. The all 3d method test I did using the experimental comic worked out so well I decided to switch Ring Spell over to that style (with a few improvements, hopefully, lol). With this method I can create updates every two days vs every eight days, a huge step up in speed and no torture of doing line art for six days straight.

Unfortunately this means I have to remake all the current episodes in that style to match, and I have to make all the models to do it. Since the BGs are already made I just need to change the shaders on those, but I do have to remake all my character models to be much higher quality (since the ones I was using for the current method were made specifically for that method), so that's what I'm currently doing. I plan to just replace all the current episodes with the updated style once I've caught up to where the story is at right now, and then I'll continue weekly updates after that.

I'm also planning to add some episodes to the early part and some other things I cut out since the episodes will be easier to make now. So lots to look forward to coming up, and a ton of behind the scenes work going on~!

Thank you so much everyone for your support during Inksgiving! It was quite unexpected and I'm truly touched by the kindness everyone has shown <3 \TTwTT/ <3

I'd been feeling a little down about Ring Spell lately so this really helped to cheer me up, so I do really super appreciate the support~! <3 I'd taken this month off to work on another project that's in all 3d (mostly just to see how it'd look), but if it turns out well I might be posting that sometime soon ;3 It's just an experiment though, haha. Ring Spell should resume updating next month~! <3

Attached is a style test image for the 3d model experimental comic I've been working on~
