Concept Art (Timbercreek): First look at Nico
🕑 Added 2021-05-22 13:00:04 +0000 UTC
As promised, in place of the cancelled livestream, I'm letting you guys in on some of the concept art that's been in the works for the next main comic series!
Nestled deep in the mossy redwoods, Timbercreek is a small town with lots of little charms; kitschy gift shops, beautiful camping destinations, and the university's pride, the Timbercreek Loggers football team. Not everything is as picturesque as it seems though...
This fella up here are some of the initial designs for one of the main cast. Here's a little bit of info on him:
Name: Nicholas (Nico) Hemlock
Age: 20
Height: 5'8"
Weight: around 120lbs
Education: Part-time university, major undeclared.
Occupation: Evergreen's Rest Cemetery & Mortuary, custodial.
There's actually a LOT more to this story and more characters to introduce and I'm super pumped about it. Because I am preparing to return to work at my day job, my game plan is to begin phasing out of scheduled livestreams and replacing that reward with sharing way more story development for the next long-term comic that's gonna begin in the future (without spoilers of course~). This next comic may run in tandem with the last volume of the Interns series, then carry onward as Interns wraps up (don't worry, side comics will definitely invite a TON of Interns shorts and spinoffs!). We still have an entire volume of Interns coming, so we still have plenty of time to see what becomes of our familiar dogs with problems 😅
Nico may be a canine, but he's only one of the few! Soon you guys will be introduced to a certain bigboi tiger, and a curly-headed deer, to name a couple...
If you've been enjoying Interns, I sincerely hope you'll give the comics succeeding the Interns series a chance! I'm trying really hard to make sure everything that follows has just as much thought and effort put into the story, romance, smut, and character arcs. I'll be sure to share more with you if this interests you guys! Everything for this story will be under the tag #Timbercreek here on Patreon ^^
Again, I'm so sorry I couldn't stream today, but I hope that this fills you with some excitement to look forward to! Thanks everyone~

I think we can trust that Jack knows to switch stuff up. I mean, we already have other species even htough an all canine cast has been great! And also.. Spooky cemetery time > : 3

Looks interesting! I was wondering what the future held after Interns, but this looks like a promising start! I just hope it won’t be the “same” as Interns, so to speak…

If I told you how much time I've spent studying the etymology of all of Jackaloo's characters, you'd probably think I'm a nut case

Someone in the discord pointed out that Hemlock and Oleander are both poisonous plants :V

Pinups and other content are staying! I’m just replacing livestream sessions with concept art posts because my schedule is going to get more unpredictable. I’ll likely be going back to some work being on-call, so my furry work time will have to adapt to improvising 🥲 I’m still determined to maintain the same amount of content though!

Will content you typically stream (pinups, mostly) still be made, just not streamed? Or are you switching entirely from those things to the concept art/story details?
