Thank you for Clay gets Isekei'd (a reflection and a QnA of sorts)

As part 2 is coming to a close, I would like to say thank you. Thank you for all of the investment, love, and support that you all have given this project. I literally couldn't do it without you. Whether you have been here since the very first concept art post four months (a literal third of a year) ago or you just read Chapter 27 and enjoyed it, you have been a key factor in motivating me for this massive thing.

This AU has proven to be a journey as much for me as for Clay. It is something that has repeatedly excited me. It has kept my pen on my tablet every day. More than that, it is proof that I can do something big and amazing and still feel fulfilled even this far into it.

Every chapter starts weeks to months in advance with me writing it and thinking, "that isn't going to happen any time soon, and it won't turn out as well as I hope," only for the day when I post it to come, and I find myself excited at how well it turned out.

AND WOW DID THE ART IMPROVE. The first few chapters are rough, but I also find them weirdly beautiful. Small adjustments like eye shape, muscle definition, change in the shape of the horns and head add up to massive incremental improvements. This was helped by the fact that this project motivated me to purchase actual ibis paint instead of using a combination of the ibis demo and MS Paint.

Every few chapters, I would test myself on something new. First it was line art, then I tested drawing below the neck, then I tried some riskier camera angles, then shading and backgrounds, then full body shots, and now I do all of that regularly and in some cases amazingly well (imo).

Same thing goes for writing. I think a reason that I am so excited is that I think I have got a story that deeply resonates with me while being a reflection on the stories and themes of this series that we love so deeply. The Dragonets of Destiny and Clay are a prime example, being the focus and all. Clay and the others, as I and many others forget, are extremely weird and dynamic characters when they are given the time to show it. Their group dynamic in the main series is one of deep love and dependence, and seeing that torn apart and repaired is just one of the many beautiful aspects of the story for me.

Another thing with writing is mystery??? I put so much love into detail both in writing and art, and I feel that it has created a world that is both strange and oddly familiar to WoF fans as well as being subtle foreshadowing for events still to come. The mystery element has become so ingrained that it has a mind of its own, which is also exciting me and a few others here.

All of this and more- thank you for every bit of interest you have given me, and I am happy that I can make this story for you.

(For the Q&A section, are there any questions on my creative process, clarification on previous or future plot points or details, my thoughts on more specific aspects of CgI, or even random (noninvasive) questions about me.)

(If it is something that will be important or spoil a surprise, I will answer "Cheeseballs.")
