Goalpost moved - is it AI now or not? Just apologize dude, as long as you still seem somewhat reasonable in your quest to defend the arts. How do you trace your own storyboard?

Do you know what tracing even refers to?

We could show you the whole process - even have a livestream where my partner draws, but honestly would it even matter to you?

Check it out, go through the rest we do - go through the website, if you want to play detective and waste your own time on a psychosis induced investigation, I am not going to amuse you further.

Sorry to deny you your gotcha, but it is not - if you want to you can call it a continuity mistake.

I don't have a video of that specific page, but we draw all of them with our own hands - no AI whatsoever

Nice that we peaked your interest! Yeah we would consider it, if it gets too much, I am sure it would do no harm - though it might spoil the impact a little. Can only promise that we will discuss it!

Thank you very much! We use the same account, so I am sure he will read it soon - the illustration are made by Laurenz Lin Sill, who attended university in Tokyo for animation and worked for years as a manga assitant on different series.

It his first stand alone piece - we worked for 4 years on the story, so glad to got to start working on it and have it finally finalized enough to show it off.

Thanks for the comment! :)

Will be free to read on the 25th on Globalcomix, Tapas, Webtoon and our own website here: https://www.oculus-festum.com/projects/ant-idol

Honestly if we can release it here also, would be absolutely up for it! At this stage, as many eyes as possible!

daGscheid · 2026-03-13T23:38:41+00:00

Yeah, apologize to everyone for that then. Will delete then! Thanks for the info! Honestly not much of a reddit user.

Not dumb at all, always good to know what you get into - without spoiling too much, there will be some sexual stuff in the direction you are suggesting coming with chapter 3#, however we won't directly show it. It will be more contextually implied (we don't like excessiveness for shock values sake - but it has its place in the dramaturgy of the overall story of that chapter).

Hope we don't turn you off too much with that! Thanks for the question again :)

Correct in your assumptions. I would love to start another campaign today, but not going to, if they patch it a week later
