Anywhere But Boring - Part 1
Added 2024-06-28 06:34:36 +0000 UTCThe start of a new series!
I love all my characters and comics, but sometimes I have stories I want to tell that require more than a caption, but less than a whole epic comic series.
This is an attempt to tell one such story. Dylan's take will be self-contained and finished in about 4 or 5 parts.
If you like this format, I'll do more in the future - so please let me know what you think! π

That's a really insightful take, Emily, and I think you're onto something. The casting directors, especially the woman with the serious expression, were definitely perceptive. They could sense that something wasn't quite adding up with the story. But in Hollywood, talent (and looks) often speaks louder than words! The woman was giving Dylan an out, a chance to step back and admit the truth. But when he doubled down on the lie, she decided to give him the opportunity anyway...

2024-07-04 17:43:02 +0000 UTCI get the impression that when the casting directors glanced at each other that they (especially the woman) didnβt 100 percent believe that he was trans. And that she was giving him the chance to step out of the role. Because they expect full commitment. And that she somehow knows he is just lying to get the part. But also, she can see he has the acting talent and therefore feels obligated to give him the opportunity if he can find that connection.

2024-07-02 06:23:44 +0000 UTCI'm glanced you liked it, Bos! The first three images use an HDRI as the background, which you can also use as a lighting source for 3D models. π

2024-07-02 05:57:20 +0000 UTCThank you, Robert! π Yeah, what I have planned for Dylan has me smiling just thinking about it!
Emory Ahlberg
2024-07-02 04:34:08 +0000 UTCYay! Thank you so much, Samanda. You'll actually have Part II and Part III in July. π
Emory Ahlberg
2024-07-02 04:28:41 +0000 UTCThank you, Stacy!
Emory Ahlberg
2024-07-02 04:28:22 +0000 UTCAnd since they think he's trans, no doubt some medications will be provided to help!

2024-07-02 04:28:01 +0000 UTCThat's certainly where we're headed, Thomas. π

2024-06-29 12:06:51 +0000 UTCOh Emory, this is good. This is REALLY good! Great start, looks like itβs going to be a fun story and the art is superb. Love everything about it.

2024-06-29 01:19:48 +0000 UTCMy muse Emory, once more you have successfully left me utterly speechless and at the same time also oddly and profoundly inspired. May we talk shop...and inspiration...in the comments section, please? Because some of this stuff is literally next generation Daz3D+Photoshop. I mean like your Xuniverse you alluded to in your PM it feels 25-30 years ahead of its time, at least to me. The first three picture backgrounds look like photos.

2024-06-29 00:31:24 +0000 UTCI believe a little method acting will be highly suggested. βWe need you to dig deep into your personal life and draw from your experiences outside acting.β
Emily
2024-06-28 22:09:06 +0000 UTCWell, anywhere but boring...

2024-06-28 18:57:46 +0000 UTCWe'll have to see how long it'll take Dylan to wise up, Syd. π

2024-06-28 18:16:32 +0000 UTCI included the text file for easy translation. π
Emory Ahlberg
2024-06-28 18:15:39 +0000 UTCThank you, Soupy! π
Emory Ahlberg
2024-06-28 18:15:10 +0000 UTCMaybe she did her research! lol
Emory Ahlberg
2024-06-28 18:15:00 +0000 UTCThanks, Gemma! That certainly seems possible since in the memoir Dylan says this is "Guy Dylan's" last hurrah!
Emory Ahlberg
2024-06-28 18:14:19 +0000 UTCEspecially as 'she' gets more popular outside of the show!
Emory Ahlberg
2024-06-28 18:13:45 +0000 UTCThank you, Tim! Yes, I plan on working on this instead of captions so I can publish Dylan's story faster. Hopefully readers will appreciate the change of pace!
Emory Ahlberg
2024-06-28 18:08:25 +0000 UTCThank you, Ella! More to come!
Emory Ahlberg
2024-06-28 18:05:26 +0000 UTCWhat do you mean we're renewed for three seasons already!? π
Emory Ahlberg
2024-06-28 18:02:05 +0000 UTCπ Six seasons and a movie!
Emory Ahlberg
2024-06-28 18:01:08 +0000 UTCToo dumb to stay a boy, obviously. π

2024-06-28 14:10:22 +0000 UTCWell Emory Iβm hooked! How far will he (they) go? To the point of no return??
Gemma
2024-06-28 13:14:28 +0000 UTCOh Dylan, you have no idea what youβve signed yourself up for but you will and fast

Sydney Bauer
2024-06-28 11:42:17 +0000 UTCI like the format, Emory, but I'm curious on your planned frequency. Are you looking at publishing episodes back-to-back-to-back (similar to what you did with The Manchurian Bride), or once per month (like you did with Pleasure Dome), or maybe somewhere in between? Personally, I would prefer a more compressed schedule, but that could be taxing on your already busy schedule. Really looking forward to what you have in store for Dylan.
Tim
2024-06-28 10:37:28 +0000 UTCI enjoyed the format, and the story hooked me!
