Thoughts
This project has become very dear to me.
It is a culmination of every talent I have put to use and it's something I've never been more proud of. Creating characters from scratch and making them come to life is an extremely rewarding process from start to finish. Every hurdle, every bug, all the weeks trying to fix one tiny detail is worth the time. The characters Tumbleweed Jones, Jericho Blaze and Tornado Slim have become people I care about and they deserve the best possible justice in production.
Due to retaining anonymity, unfortunately I can't link all of the content to uphold the freedom of creative expression.
