Patron Exclusive Comic Vulpine Virus Part 2 {March 2023} (Patreon)

As promised, here is the second half of the "Vulpine Virus" comic, who's first installment was shared in last month's update! And can be found here: https://www.patreon.com/posts/patron-exclusive-78293055

This is my first completed Traditional Comic shared publicly, quite happy to finally pull it off! Finishing up this second half required mostly writing and rewriting apposed to the last half which needed more Art related stuff done.

I've also included a few Colored bonus images. There were a few images I had colored back in the day but never got to 100% completion. The fact I tried to color this comic in the first place probably contributed to the many things which ultimately killed the project, a good example of me pulling off more than I could chew. >.< The colored images did not translate well when desaturated to grey to match the other Pencil art of the comic (The black and orange where too similar in tone), these extra images should give a far better better idea of how she looked when fully transformed! ^_^

In typical fashion this entire project was worked on over stream sessions with  writing help from friends.^o^

Thank you all for your patience and sticking with this comic for two months. I've got even longer Traditional comics in the archives which I'll be sharing in the future if I ever need a little extra time again for other things, some of which might even last more than 3 months. lol Next Project will likely be fully complete by the end of the month. I'd still like to know if you all like these longer projects or not or just simply don't mind them at all. ^_^

Panel 1

How am I suppose to live like this? I can't be Seen!
I can't stay here with you, what if this happens to you too? It would be my fault.  
Will I have to live in the forest like some animal now? Should I? But then, I'll never see you, my parents, friends again.
Please, I don't know what to do anymore, just, just leave me...

Hey, I'm not going anywhere.
You need me, I need you.
No matter what, I'll always love you.
I will never leave you, we are in this together.
For better or worse. We will manage.

Panel 1

If I didn't get the support I needed in that moment I don't think I'd be here writing this today. It's been months now but it still feels like yesterday. I relive that night, every night it seems.

The Vulpine Virus or “V1X3N” as they eventually called it, was stopped just like any other, and while it managed to infect only a few, it was enough to make the world change, and everyone had to adapt in some way to it.

With the help of my friends, family, and special services, I too adapted. Eventually learning to walk again and overcoming the other animal aspects of my new body. Aspects I have come to appreciate now. All the advantages, the disadvantages, even the strangeness.

If anything this whole experience has made me realize the importance of the people around me, and with them how anything can be overcome. I'm not even afraid of what might happened if or when the Virus returns again...
