Wow!
Thanks to all your support MythFall is fully funded! 🎉🎉
It has been a long road from concept to scripting to production - with a detour through a global pandemic! - but thanks to your help this beautiful project, MythFall Issue #1, is going to exist as a printed book we can all hold in our hands.
I'm beyond thrilled to see us reach this point!
There is even more to come.
Now that we've hit our goal, I can mention that we have some really cool stretch goals available. In fact, I rearranged some of them because I'm so hype to get them sooner.
If we reach $4,000 we'll unlock our first Strech Goal:
Kate McMillan Concept Art Print Set
Kate McMillan is a location designer for the upcoming Big City Greens movie on Disney TV. She also previously worked at Dreamworks TVon The Croods: Family Tree and Madagascar: A Little Wild.
Before Allie and I began working on illustrating the pages for MythFall, I reached out to Kate to get some concept art for the fantastical locations we visit in Issue #1. I wanted the places we visit in Mythfall to evoke a sense of wonder. Many of my favorite stories have been ones that allow you to fall into a setting that you can explore and get lost in.
Kate has a background in architecture that helps her design fantastical structures. As you can see, she does absolutely incredible work. It was amazing to get to work with her on this project.
Bringing in Kate also freed up Allie to go deep on the character and textile designs, which are important both as an immersive extension of the world-building and to express the emotional core of the story - which is the thing that keeps me engaged and returning to a story again and again.
Here's how the comic went from Concept Art --> to Illustration --> to Colored Pages:
It's a real shame we blow it up in the first 5 pages 😆
Every physical backer will get a set of these prints.
We're excited to offer you Kate's illustrations as a set of mini-prints.
Once we hit $4,000, we'll add these prints to every pledge $16 and up.
Thank you so much for your support so far. I'm so happy to have you on this journey with me while we see how far MythFall can go! 🚀🚀🚀
Fervently,
Cici
Milestone Reward: 100 Backers

Hello beautiful backers!
My original dream with MythFall was to write a story that 100 people would read.
I talk about that dream here on The Creative Cranium with host Timothy B. Fling and fellow indie creator Aaron Jordan.
(You can check out Aaron's prelaunch page here. He's got an unusual take on a werewolf project that sounds super cool! https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/wulfsbanecomics/wulfsbane-in-sheeps-clothing-part-ii-of-vi-refanged?ref=clipboard-prelaunch )
As we approach 100 backers I want to do something special.
I want to give you a mixtape! 💗
Music is something that helps me in my daily life and is also a big part of my writing process.
I put together this Spotify playlist with songs themed for Issue #1.
Once we hit 100 backers, I'll release a link to the playlist as a private update here on Kickstarter.
If it works the way I'm expecting, we don't have to wait to fund to deliver this reward. Everyone who backed can listen to it right away!
Thank you again for supporting this project and helping me bring it into the world.
Fervently,
Cici

Hello beautiful backers!
We have 17 days left on the Kickstarter for MythFall #1 for the next 17 minutes and we are just $17 away from beating our total funding raised for Incident Report Issue #2!
I'm excited to be so close to this milestone at this stage of the campaign. We have a bigger goal for MythFall than we did for Incident Report Issue #2 and a plan to help us get there.
More details coming soon. 🤩🕊
Fervently,
Cici

We are 7 days in and 75% funded 🎉
I have some exciting announcements. Let's get right to it!

Every backer will also get an Icon pack featuring images from the comic. The pack includes:
16 .ico files that can be used as desktop icons
35 square-cropped JPGs that can be used for avatar images.
They feature Allie’s beautifully expressive faces with Eren’s glorious colors.
They'll look great on the desktop backgrounds. 😀
Here are some examples:
2 - This Saturday: Cici is Live on Twitch!
I’ll be painting miniatures (D&D figurines) live on Twitch this Saturday from 8pm to 11pm EST.
Am I good at painting miniatures? Not necessarily! But I have a lot of fun doing it.
I’ll be painting the miniatures of Anne and Vlad that we produced for Issue 1 of Incident Report, plus Pepper, my Kobold artificer.
Come swing by and ask a few questions or just say hello!
