Today is Wolf Song Animatic's 10 year anniversary on YouTube~! 🥳
Can't believe these OCs of mine are a whole decade old 🤧
And the Red & Wolf webcomic, which is derived from my Wolf Song animatic, will be 4 years old next month! As of writing this post, where we are in the next update of the comic is parallel to the animatic 👀
I never thought my melodramatic, self-indulgent, little red riding hood retelling would be enjoyed by and affect as many people as it has. I feel in a lot of ways these characters have grown with me and have been a part of some key moments in my life (they gave me something to focus on during a pandemic, for one). I honestly didn't think it would be THEM, they were supposed to be one-off OCs and remain less like characters and more allegorical.
Like they were just "Wolf" and "Red", then after people became interested and invested in them as characters they became "Leikos" and "Scarlett". "Wolf Song" was supposed to be this heavy, sad, allegorical thing - but so many people saw a romantic tragedy, which REALLY concerned me at first but I did come around to the idea eventually. Reworking the concept to be a somewhat dark fantasy romance was how the "Red & Wolf" comic came to be. There's something kind of weirdly healing about taking a sad story from your past self and throwing some fluff in there, idk.
Anyway, I could go on and I have so much more that I can say, but ultimately, I would just like to thank you all for your support and interest throughout the years 💕
It's gonna be bittersweet when I wrap their story up :')
