Projects in Progress
A few other ideas that have come up lately:
Project AnthraXX: I've thought a lot about this one, but haven't made any major changes to the file, so I didn't upload the latest version.
Project Artificer: I've been thinking for quite a while that the various forms of shamanism and necromancy complicate and dilute the theme stated in the title. I may throw them all out and just make it straight golempunk-perhaps even a giant robot battle series!
Also, I don't think I've mentioned before that I long ago decided to add a story arc set in the Northlands, for which I've expanded the lore. Unfortunately, I'm worried that it's going to sound like an allegory for the Iraq war. . . .
Project Homuncupunk: Noting the problems I had making a good skull mask for Ms. Terese, I had the idea of making it a simple circle with a round eyehole. The visuals that sparked the idea were Khasmins [sic], but I was likely influenced by Japanese sources as well, such as the kodama in Mononoke-Hime and Sachiel from EVA.
Also, I'm ambivalent about whether I should have the side story about Ms. Riku's background (see here). I still like the idea, but it would be too much of a tangent if I presented it as a flashback during the main story, and it dilutes the concept of her relationship with Ms. Isabel if she had others who filled the role before.
Project Maddie's Maids: Thought up an idea for another equally raunchy short.
Project Umbra: I was inspired by reading about the traditional parentage of the leucrotta, so I decided to use that as a character-replacing Je'nal, if anyone can actually remember that far back in the project's history.
