The Bridge Art Delay

Faithy's working on a lot of projects and commissions at the moment so the artwork for chapter 26 of The Bridge and likely chapter 3 of Sound of Thunder will be released after the chapter is. I will post a new blog post to signal when they have been uploaded for any who want a heads up

ALSO, ONE SMALL ADDITION:

I'm going to be doing Commissions regularly. So be aware that "late artwork" will most likely be a trend in the future. My apologies.

I love that you're gonna do a Guardian Ghidorah possibly.... maybe...

As much as I like the design, sadly Bridge's roster is so bloated already we can't include any new kaiju ^^;

[VampDash]

3554698 B-but..... but..... Guardian Ghidorah.

[Tarbtano]

3554699

But where could I put em? Timeline wise he was replaced with Anguirus (irony considering in pre-production GG replaced Anguirus so I just put him back where he was), and we got a whopping 10 core kaiju already.

And how can I explain without it being confusing why their are suddenly 2 King Ghidorahs that looks very similarly to each other. Least with Kaizer he has a very different visual look and manner to King Ghidorah.

Also if this is a Mirrored!Guardian Ghidorah, he wouldn't be the cute fellow we saw in the reader works.

I can't just throw in a new kaiju so suddenly. Not without
A. Set up
B. An arc to justify they being there and in the story
C. Having been already mentioned before

Raiga was a lucky accident as I got a side idea to use but I still had to made a whole new story for that reason. If I introduce a new kaiju to Bridge proper or SoT now, it'll just take more and more of the ongoing character development for the others out of focus.

3554723 Go with how most people do it. Evil Ghidorah has something of a beard like a lion's mane. Guardian Ghidorah is purely reptillian. Plus Guardian Ghidorah is smaller than Evil Ghidorah... and he's still growing up so he's more childish due to being a young Yamato No Orochi.

Still look very, very similar and again, if he popped up it really be out of the blue. Let me state it again. I don't want to include any more kaiju because juggling 10+ alongside the MLP roster is already a hassle. Please, please stop asking me to include more. I have my reasons. If I could include every kaiju imaginable, I would in a heartbeat but I just can't do it...

If you or anyone else wants to give it a whirl by making your own self contained story with GG, have at it!

Please see the rest of my post for my reasons I can't include more kaiju.

[VampDash]

3554744 So what you can't have GG pop out an extra head or turn color into red as he gets older since Orochi IS a Toho product and was in fact red?

[Tarbtano]

3554746

At that point why not just call him Orochi?

And point still stands. I got a very bloated roster and adding any new kaiju will require a lot of set up, time, as well as change all of my long term plans in the story. I just can't do it.

[VampDash]

3554766 Nevermind it was a stupid request. I'm sorry.

[Tarbtano]

3554771

Not stupid. In fact is actually has given me ideas on how to make GG canon in the timeline since his movie role got taken by Anguirus. It's just I'm so far a long the bus is full with no empty seats.

[VampDash]

3554777 Ax off a Kaiju then... I'm sorry but the Kaiju have always been invincible and.... I get why but now.... I don't know.

[Tarbtano]

Really starting to get annoyed here.

Before I've even given half the roster a story arc or some of the future events I have planned for them? NO.

3554783

Dude, I have my hands full means, I have my hands full. I'm already juggling two stories on top of IRL work, I have to finish one before I start anything else.

[Oldtakufanboy]

I have no problem with waiting on the art. Give faithy some time here.

I can appreciate that it can get annoying to have people making requests for your story, but I have a suggestion: think of it as a nice problem to have. This is all a sign of your story's success, and the fruits of your labor. The only reason you get requests for this character or that, is because your story is successful. Not saying you have to grin and bear it, not saying you have to seriously consider all requests, just suggesting you look at the phenomena from another angle.
Not to self-aggrandize, but I feel confident saying that I more than most, can relate to the extensive amount of effort you've put into your story. Complete your vision Tarb, then if you're still into it, you can take a step back and reassess where you want the story to go next. You've already got multiple compelling concurrent storylines. Would it be a bit bloated if you had to work in a character like good!Ghidorah, probably yeah, I'd agree to that. For a single story, that's very taxing not just on you but on the narrative. But I can't imagine that you don't see a place for him in a future story, the character is solid, and you're a good enough story-teller.

well, what if I offer ten head of cattle as a burnt sacrifice, and hold a feast in your name during the upcoming Saturnalia? might that speed things along?
