Are we ever gonna get any updates about BOTSE?
I've been meaning to…sorta. But I have been struggling with how to tackle it cause if I'm being real, BotSE is in like a weird limbo right now.
The reality is the comic has been out into an unofficial hiatus. I just have not been working on it since the last update, Which was over a year ago. I don't want to say the comic is like officially cancelled for dropped, I’m not confident in saying that it is, but there are a lot of reasons why I have not worked on it.
One reason is just adult life, I don't really have the energy or motivation to make around 5 or 6 fully colored comic pages every two weeks like I did when I was in high school. I've also just become increasingly unconfident in my writing skills. I don't really know what I'm trying to say with BotSE and that really frustrates me. I feel like it strays too far away from the actual source material- both intentionally and unintentionally, And I don't feel like the writing property portrays which is which.
There are a lot of things I really like about BotSE thought which is why I'm not certainly canning it. I like writing a crime syndate action drama, I like a lot of my characters, and working hard on pages then seeing them done all together is very satifying, But there are a lot of core problems with it that I just am not motivated enough to fix on top of my other projects. And it takes a lot of confidence and passion to work on that comic as much as I did.
I have thought about starting other comics on a smaller scale, though still not that confident in my writing so its up in the air if il follow through with them. I do have my two other story focused (sort of) blogs, Brichbam’s ask blog and my Snaxcurity Breach blog, which I’m more confident and have more fun sharing a story in those. I hope y'all are giving those blogs some love in the mean time (even though I haven't updated Snaxcurity Breach in one Orbillion years lol)
Anyway I think those are basically all my thoughts sorry if this is a big ass post, and sorry for being really quiet about the status of BotSE. I know a lot of you really enjoy the comic and want to know what is up with it. If any if you have questions let me know!

Apologies for the unannounced long break! Chapter 4 needed some prep that didn't have a lot of time to be worked on these past couple of months.

Apologies for the super long gap between updates. The next update is halfway done!
This next update is really long. The way the last couple of updates were posted have made the making of the last pages of chapter 3 kinda awkward. Two updates are being finished in one batch basically. Ty guys for being patient :)

Announcement!!
I decided to give BotSE it’s own site, hosted on comic fury!! I’ll still post the pages on here of course, but I thought it’d be nice to also move it to a dedicated comic platform, so I don’t have to make my speech bubbles ludicrously big for tumblr’s weird photo quality problem when you don’t click on it lol
Here’s the link!

Apologies for the long wait with the most recent update! Pages might be slowing down from now on due to how long it's been taking me to make pages as of late.
In other news, Chapter three is almost done! It was a lot shorter than I expected it to be, Just a few more updates before chapter 4 begins.

IT'S HERE!! IT'S FINALLY HERE!!
youtube
This dub is coming out in parts! As to not stress anyone out (and it saves me time because I used my phone to put this together)
Lil Gyiel is voiced by me, despite my lack of a Maine accent
Lil Wambus is voiced by @mapleykin
Music made by @blueberrythefrog
Later down the line we have voices by the music director, Skrapz as Wambus, and Emlene's voice is by my own mother (you'll hear those later)
LIKE ALWAYS!! BROTHERS OF THE SEASIDE ECLIPSE BELONGS TO @orb-the-watchman
Thank you again Orb for letting us do this dub!
