art reveal ?!??! :0 BUT HELLO AGAIN !! I bring more to the table <3 This time it's concepts ! I've been very.. careful on showing off a ton of stuff due to i still want mostly everything to be a surprise so FOR NOW I'm just gonna show off X and their development :) SO who Is X ? A mysterious fellow if that wasn't obvious. X Doesn't like to be perceived to the public, Nor does he like the public. X has a serious case of germaphobia and can't handle being in a crowded room. Therefore they prefer to work alone rather then with his team mates. Team mates you may ask ? X works for a Locally run company (funded by a mysterious person oo ) called H.E.X , a extermination company you could say :) just to get rid of unwanted pests wink

There isn't much more I can say ( due to the fact I don't have much written BUT I want to keep what i have a secret ) SO the only other thing I will share Is a bit of development X went through !

Look under the Cut to hear more ! V V

As you can see he went through a bit of .. drastic changes. I really wanted a steampunk theme, the first one didn't quite stick though since it was the very first draft of X and I just needed some colours to stick. I had to many long haired characters so I tried something new and experimented. The time X appears in the story its gonna be very cold, so I kept that in mind and went for a more , post-apocalyptic outfit ? But this is by far my most disliked design I have done PURELY because I just hate how it looked. SO then I left it again, till I came back to try one more time. THIS time I thoroughly looked through Pinterest examining steampunk themes, I also took inspiration from The most recent COD game and decided to change his character more while I was at it ! So now he wielded a sniper. My lovely gf Mentioned to me that since he was a germaphobe they should have their hair pulled back, .. I kept the ponytail picking out tho since I wanted the green to stick out . Tldr ; First design was alright, But I could do better. second design I hated but the colours were perfect. Third design is absolutely perfect till I need to update them when the story officially comes out !

Hello again :D Instead of the usual concept art I've decided to ramble about how my story will work in the future. For as long as I can remember Developing secrets lie, was always going to be a animated indie web series, that's been the plan from the start and I don't see any plans of changing it. BUT I've also wanted to incorporate comics into it, since I've also had a passion for that media. SO back in November of 2022 (wow) I did a bunch of polls asking my *small* audience what I should do for the future, A lot of people wanted to see the MAIN story of secrets lie into a comic. At the time I thought, OH YEAH that could totally work. I'll have everything planned out and I can just go off the comic. Fast forward to 2024 and I'm now having second thoughts. Not just because I would be working on a comic whilst animating it, BUT format wise I don't see it working for me. I want everything to be a first experience for people when they watch my silly thing instead of knowing before hand from reading. I always knew I wanted my stuff to be impactful, and to be honest? I'm not that good at portraying that through comics. ( last comic I did was when I was 14 ) I'm more skilled through animation :') So where am I going with this? as of now *29 - 03 - 24* We're mixing it up a bit. I still have plans to make a comic BUT, i'm gonna do an old idea I had back then where i'll do side stories. Side stories being backstory of the main 6 ( Skylar, Lennon , Amelia + sirens ) Since I feel like that would work a lot better? I feel this would be the best course of action. Since for Secrets lie I'm planning to have more than one season, WHICH will take a lot of time + energy. I do hope I'll have the funds in the future to have some helpers but all i can do for now is just plan ahead 🙏 But we're still a long way from making anything certain SO we just have to wait and see ! :) thanks for reading <3
