Since its pretty much gonna be and *is* the main thing I post about, I figured getting this out of the way is probably warranted, so without further ado...

✨️Explaining who the fuck them dogs are✨️

Ndawo is my webcomic pet project that ive been working on and conceptualizing since late 2020 (so apporaching 5 years! Yay!). The first book, Fallout of the Curtain Call, will see its premeir of the first 100 pages on Comicfury, November 13th of 2025 (and with monthly uploads of at minimum 30 pages from that point forward until the finale)

The series takes place on earth millions of years in the future, Now known as Excors, after some supernatural event sunk the world of humanity, imbewed the world with magic that turned the seas black with strange ink, and paved the way for this new age of these new Sapient and magical counterparts of dog to dog-like animals known as "Hounds".

But excors isnt the only world in this story, parallel to it exists Ndawo, a realm of magic and monsters, manifested by the soul of the planet itself.

But not all hounds are very accepting of the unknowable and strange. Especially those from beyond the archipelago, the last continent, frozen in a lifeless tundra that saw little magic, Wolves.

In the modern day, the wonders of this world have been long supressed for a century by wolven colonizers and their strange "nullifiers" that seem to destroy all thats metaphysical.

Now the eldritch is only relegated to this worlds underbelly of pirates. Which brings us to our main cast...

The story itself follows Ness (short for Nameless), a 16 year old dog raised by monsters and plagued by misfortune. after a series of unfortunate events involving being the nemesis of some wolven hero and accidentally sacrificing his parents to an ancient eldritch diety, they've found themselves past the point which felt like the end of their story, now unsure what to do with their life.

Luckily, they've been scooped up by a mediocre yet colorful pirate crew. But will they accept this new chance at an unknown future? Or resign themselves to the known past that haunts them?

Or do they even have a choice in this? as the other player in their former story refuses to let it end the way it did...

Tldr: its a magic pirate dog planet of the apes coming of age story about learning to be unapolagetically yourself even in the face of marginalization.

Anyway! Heres a sneak peak of issue 1!

Probably should make some kind of post explaining who tf them dogs are lmao

yes I know my anxious thoughts are irrational that doesnt make them shut the fuck up tho, I need a comically sized mallet for that.

Stealing your thin fries privileges

Well then i'll be stealing a random vital organ

Heres Some whimsical lookin ass birds

This was some concept art for a project I originally planned to make into a xenofiction ttrpg surrounding birds, specifically species that can be found in new york state. I've since put it on hold since Ndawo requires all of my attention right now, but who knows, maybe i'll pick this idea back up in the future, maybe i'll turn it into a comic too! who knows :]

Theres such a huge emphasis placed on the "big break" in any creative feild that so many people dont realize it straight up doesnt exist, atleast not in the way it's ever presented. You could have an extensive resume and still be struggling, you can get into the "big leauges" one day and be on the street the next, thats the nature of creative industries. getting a job at a big studio isnt a golden ticket to sucess, its just a job, a very temporary and unstable job. Creatives, indie or industry, aren't in competition, they're coworkers.

When I heard your pilot was getting big I wasn't really interested but I could at least appreciate it considering how badly the indie scene is devolving into Hollywood 2.0.

Then I found your profile and that you worked at Disney and realized, "Oh, it's the SAME DAMN SITUATION AS EVERY OTHER """"INDIE"""" PILOT."

Once again proving people will only care about ANYTHING if you have clout and a resume and not actual good ideas or passion or effort and will only ever accept small-scale stuff if you're already in with the big leagues.

First, I think you fundamentally misunderstand what “indie” means haha

And also, just because an artist has a large following and credentials doesn’t mean they lack passion or put no effort into anything. If anything those credentials prove that said artist has the drive to make a career out of the thing they’re passionate about
