I think I know what my problem was. Not really sure though. I'll be sure to put on my lab coat and run some tests. Pages to follow. Sometime. I have the next one open right now. Hopefully worth the weight.
Making any progress here? Either way, good luck with your personal stuff, and if you're ever in Denver during the summer or Dallas during the school year, let me know!
On the comic itself? No. On lore? Yes.
Creating a language from the ground up, working on a lexicon currently. Redesigning several species again, including the Yersai. Solidifying history and past/future events, motivations of characters, and the end goals of what everybody is working towards. Wrote the story when I was 14, it's a bit crap.
Also practicing my animation skills even though I said it was against the longevity of the comic. Should probably just drop the pretense of having a comic entirely, since I feel so disenfranchised with it anyway at this point, and start over again on a different medium entirely.
Joking aside their feets (and hands) are for digging. And in the species redesign, I made their claws more readily apparent to show it better.
Would just like to point out I had no idea what a moglin or twilly was before you mentioned them and googled them. And I still don't know what they are.
It is a running joke in games made by Artix Entertainment. The company mascot is a creature named Twilly. Moglins are big-footed healers whose visual design has been overhauled many times. The art team can never seem to agree on how big to make the feet, how many toes they should have, whether they wear shoes, etc. Most of the players actually like the small-footed Moglins such as one named Zorbak. Now that I've explained this incredibly obscure joke, we can move on!
Google now believes that you have a Moglin obsession, by the way. Enjoy those tracking cookies. X3
I wish I had a definitive answer for you. I have a lot going on in my life at the moment, and am currently going through a paradigm shift of sorts. It's also the the kind of shift that can produce reprisal from otherwise kind and loving people when not kept to oneself. So just a bunch of stress to deal with. Terribly sorry for the wait.
A proposition (and something that will hopefully sound like encouragement)
I have an idea for you, instead of trying to keep yourself tied to an update schedule and trying to craft and update the comic simultaneously, you could instead post some of the non-spoilery lore, concept art, language, and other stuff that you are working on. This would allow you to work on crafting your tale without pressure while also keeping the fans coming back. I don't say this critically; I know how hard it is to stay motivated sometimes, how hard it is to get up and accomplish anything in the first place. However, you've already done more for your story than I've ever done for any of mine, since only a handful of people have ever even seen my rough sketches and ideas. So, Kyte, don't despair. We think you have potential. Don't give up.
I would love to have some work to show for the work I've put into this, it's just I have trouble setting time aside to put it into a show-able medium. And there's things like that language that need a lot more work put into them before it's something I can actually use.
Everything is just so time-consuming, and with so many other things catching my attention much easier for longer, it makes progress rather stagnant. Drawing is tedius, and writing is slow.
There's also the problem of my job, and how tired it makes me. I had everything all lined up to go and then got a job and stopped everything. Really sucks to be tired all the time. Protip, don't get a night job doing physical labour if you can help it.
Unfortunately a lot of the active plot, and nearly all of the world building I've done is either in my head or scrawled on a various scraps of paper and notebooks around my room. The time it would take to compile a readable compendium would be better spent just writing the original novel version out and publishing that.
I also have a problem really involving people in the creative process beyond bouncing ideas off of friends. I would really like to be able to finish Snowfall on my own, though I feel like it would fit a different medium than webcomic better. Something more active like a game or an animation.
you could try
You could try an interactive sstory it's a game where the player controls the story based on his/her choices if you want a good example check out choice of dragons
Go Kyte go!
yay it´s finished :D
omg them giant feets :3
looking good.
Woop woop go team kyte.
@Zzzzzx
(V)(;,,;)(V) woooooop woop woop woop
...I wonder how much a bit weighs.
...I don't think it's a lot.
Probably not.

I know you wrote it when you were 14, I'm pretty sure you made me read some of it :P Good luck with whatever you end up doing, then.
are you even working on new pages?
I almost have the next page's lines almost finished. The page got put on hold after I got a new tablet to draw on until I got used to it.
Please add some new arts till there are comming new pages!!! please^^
I don't really like posting sketches, though I'll try to finish something up in my next few days off.
You could always post them as voting incentives.
Tiny padded feet > Twilly stompers
You know what they say about aliens with big feet.
That they are Moglin healers?

How much money do you need for it?
may you can collect tips or stuff like that
I have the tablet, it ran a fair amount, the problem I've been having is I can't seem to produce lineart on it very well.
Do you use the right drawing programms?
Even for free you get very good stuff!
It's not the tool you use, but how you use it.
That aside, I use PaintToolSAI
Pleease! How long have we to wait?!?!?!?

I hope that that came off as encouragement, but I'm normally really bad at that...

What's the main character name? I have no idea... I'm such a noob
-facepalm- nvm I completely bypassed the previous page XD.
*Cry*
Sorry, Snowfall has kinda been moved to my backburner while I work on another project. It will continue one day, just probably not for awhile sadly.
Until you can get your life back together that way everyone wins just a friendly suggestion not trying to be mean

He totally said this already to another d00d, right above, video game/animation and such.
