things facing left

They have a noir detective and femme fatale dynamic except Mo (the taller one) is the femme fatale, or rather the stud fatale, and Adanna is the detective.

Hey, it's me! ...Sorry for the radio silence. To put it bluntly, things have been rough both creatively and mental health-wise. It is what it is and I'm not sure when that's gonna change. As part of dealing with that, I'm (finally) going to officially put Ad Terra on hiatus so that I can work on myself-- and more relevantly-- on making my relationship with this comic healthier. Perfectionism and self-doubt are soul-crushing, and I'm not gonna let them go unchecked any longer. My plan right now is to keep chipping away at pages, but to give myself grace and not post anything until I can accept that my comic (a passion project!!!!) doesn't have to be professional quality in order to deserve to exist, and until I can feel pride in the imperfect things I do create. I'm also gonna give myself room to experiment more and let the results just be even if they don't work out. That's gonna look like stylistic changes and potentially a drop in quality, but I've been drawing long enough to know that the only thing that actually leads to consistent improvement is repetition-- not fiddling with the same 2 dialogue boxes for 3 hours as I lose my mind trying to figure out which alignment guides the eye in the most optimal way. It's a long road ahead, but I'd much rather walk it than not. Thank you for your support, and I'll see you on the other side.
