I’ve decided to make Wednesday my scheduled update for my new webcomic, Under the Apple Tree. It seems to make the most sense as I have most of the day off so I can catch up before I post, and not many of the other comics I follow update on Wednesdays (lots of Thursdays and Fridays), so hopefully that will get me some more traffic later on.
Today I was only able to put one page up, but if I finish some more this afternoon I will post a second. Scene 2 opens with Maggie waking up and hearing music playing from down the hall. Now you get to meet Mrs. Ripple, her mother.
Constructive criticism is always appreciated. I have mixed feelings about that last page, so I’m curious what you all think. The style is more simplistic than before with a sort of retro home-y color scheme to invoke a certain feeling for the scene… we’ll see if it works.
I have also worked quite a bit on the website and now there are wallpapers available, as well as character descriptions (which I’ll update as more appear) and a fleshed out links section. If anyone would like to exchange links I’d be happy to oblige!




While I’m posting, might as well show you the progress of the comic. Currently I am building up a 20 or so page buffer so that when I begin to post it a couple pages at a time online I won’t get behind. I’m pretty pleased with the style I chose, I think.
