Poll for V4 insert art

How about when Lu Ri presents the scroll to the Hongs and Uncle Bao?

Andrew Denton

Looking forward to some Demon wacking :) or just wholesome land building back in the Azure hills.

Mads Thrane Hansen

Peers at date...BREAK OVER!!!!!! Been missing my BOC fix

Len

Explorations in alcohol would be funny too.

The Glass House

Amanda hugo

Wa Shi doing the dragon dance was always a scene that I liked to imagine. The other choices are nice, but I think this one would have the best visuals.

Nolan Bowling

Internally screaming magistrate will never not be funny.

Nobody

I would like to see how faram actually looks like a landscape photo with the house the rivers and the fields

lizard king

Shen yu getting cut by Bi De, while the gang gathers behind him.

Vlarto

I think the peach blossom oath is the most important to the ongoing narrative, but man I REALLY wanna see washi and the dragon dance.

Neal Callahan

Agree with tem. Think a rating for what we think are the top 3 or 5. Sorry, wasn't following you last year at this time.

Old Dog

It says choose all that apply. More then one vote

Thomas Schnetter

all. of. em. 🗣️

tem

Only one vote :(

The Peach Blossom Oath I feel is a must! It’s a such a pivotal moment not only for the characters but the province and story itself.

Kehn

The insert art should, IMO, be something that keeps to the wholesome feel of the series, like the fall journey, or summarize the book, like the peach blossom oath.

There is not enough Xianghua X Gou content.

High school year book page(s) maybe a school uniforms?

BirdsofPrey

I believe the fam helping tianlan rest for the winter is good. It has all the farm characters, and it is fundamentai to the story.

Aaron W. Smith

I think you should add a pic of what the farm looks like after the summer building campaign and the new fields. Also, any chance you could put a section that lists the different cultivation levels, what the typical sect hierarchy looks like, typical cultivation levels for each hierarchy. If nothing do it for the cloudy sword sect. Then pin it to the top of your Patreon home page for easy access. Oh. Last ask: quit naming people with similar names. It’s easy to lose track of who you are talking about. Thanks.

1, 4 and 7 have my support

Oskatat

Do we get a chapter of the baby being born? Or did I miss a chapter? I miss Fa Ram

Skylar

We can't? :puppy eyes:

Oskatat

i have to click to the LEFT of the box for it to register

Len

Probably a group photo thingy during the dragon dance or in the festival? Maybe a selfie style with the image capture crystal device? Like the Oscars ;-)

Bender

I did a few, but I think the peach blossom oath was the best climax. An alternate cover art could be related to the shrouded mountain sect with Bi di as a rooster and incredulous looks of the sect members to reflect the two big plot lines, but not as huge as the oath. Also a bit of a spoiler to have that duel scene as cover….Oathx10

Matt

it might be an app problem. others have said switching to desktop fixed their issues.

Casualfarmer

soo SOOOO many scenes. one i would have loved to seen LAST BOOK is a ~6 panel of xianghua arriving to greet mom and dad... shen yu leaving the body of the beast as the caravaners yell we're rich... umm training on the poles with gramps, tianlan boosting meimei curing gramps, etc....all the ones mentioned above are good.

Len

Just Fa Ram would be cool. I like seeing how it has changed over time. Bonus points for all the spirit beasts hidden throughout.

Arkiula

Another scene: Miantiao making his offering to Tianlan. (This made me tear up!)

BargleNawdleZouss

Additional scenes I’d love to see: 1. Torrent Rider leading the way surfing The Gutter, followed by Pi Pa and the rest of Fa Ram. 2. Shen Yu and Lu Ri sparring. 3. Meiling draining Shen Yu of demonic Qi. 4. TLM meeting Lu Ri. 5. TLM, Lu Ri, Lady Wu, and Lin Bao discussing the postal system, with Jin and Hong Xian looking puzzled, and Shen Yu laughing his ass off. 6. Shen Yu and Hong Xian negotiating/reviewing the Hong-Lin formation. 7. Jin playing Auld Lang Syne in Verdant Hill. 8. Guan Chyou reading the explorer's journal to everyone at Fa Ram. 9. Tie Delun, Rags, and Loud Boy being interrogated by Meiling. 10. Hong Xian Jr. and Liu Bowu meeting Torrent Rider in Verdant Hill on New Year’s Eve.

BargleNawdleZouss

Ok, I totally missed that. Thanks for the heads up.

Gnothi Seauton

it won't let me vote at all. vote count goes up by one then drops by one and my selection disappears. top pick would be the peach blossom oath

Paul Bystrom

I think have a variety of images featuring different characters would be best, since you are expanding the character base

William C

I'm pretty sure it been said that Big D will be on all the covers this poll is about the illustrations peppered throughout the book not the cover

MrDragondude5

I agree those 2 sound 1) the most dynamic 2) the most representative & 3) reveal the most of what we want to see Although I also think a look at the shovel’s carvings could be cool

Eli Pomerantz

I think all of the covers should Big D on them. It fits the story title better in my opinion.

Gnothi Seauton

Too bad we can't get all of them

WarStrider72

How are we supposed to pick but one when so many are amazing!?

Cindermoth

It says select all that apply, but only lets me vote for 1 image.

Havefeith

I ended up voting on 10 things...but the most important to me for illustration would be the Peach Blossom Oath and The War against the Demons.
