Go for it! Different body types---for women and men---would really make this stand out (more than it already does). Very, very few people actually qualify as hourglass without help from a corset.

Enjoy your new laptop! :)

This looks really very interesting! Normally I don't touch fantasy, but this

and the imperial/colonial aspects just sounded too good to pass up on.

Looking forward to seeing this finished - good luck!

[throws streamers across the thread]

We now have a tumblr! We're going to be saving thread updates for more significant progress, and then using the tumblr for our "guys, guys, we decided this one character has blue eyes" updates. (Well. Not exactly.) This way you can find out more about us as a duo and the development process can be more fun and personal! So if you're interested in keeping up with things as they happen, we'll be posting works-in-progress, tests and sketches on the tumblr before we put them on the thread. Currently we're posting concept art for the side characters - there's a whole cast outside of the romanceable characters and we'd love to hear your feedback on all of them :D

Awesome! I'm following your tumblr now. (That reminds me . . . I really need to get around to actually making mine less empty and pathetic.)

In addition, I'd like to mention that the blog will be a way for us to interact with supporters and answer questions in a more casual/personal setting. This is where you'll get my pseudo-witty captionings on my sketches as well as more elaborate explanations of some parts of the VN like pre-game lore. So if you'd like to see what dorks we are outside of this thread, that's the place to find it <3

Also, I may at some point open up suggestions for sketches of characters that any of you are particularly interested in and we're happy to give (some) details about any of our romanceable characters if asked there !
