Almost Real’s 4th Volume, all about Biotechnology, has come to a close!
We ended on an incredible three stretch goals broken (with two of those being well-deserved artist bonuses for all involved contributors!) None of this would’ve been possible without our artist’s imaginations and our backer’s support, and thanks again for helping us make Almost Real… real!
Check out the Kickstarter update here with more info, watch for backer surveys going out in mid-May, and we’ll see you soon!

Ending on Monday April 19th at 12PM (PDT), we’ll be closing out Almost Real’s 4th Kickstarter! Since our last update, we broke our 2nd stretch goal of free 8.5x11" sticker sheets illustrated by V Swain if you’re a backer of the SCANNED BLUEPRINTS tier and up!
As it says on the battery, our next stretch goal is our 2nd artist bonus for contributors at $24,000! We’d be more than thrilled at the idea of paying our contributors as much as we can, so get your last minute pledges and/or adjustments in before Monday.
Head here to support the 4th installment of this spec bio collection before the Kickstarter campaign ends!

Just some Idul heads! I find variation in faces when it comes to aliens and the like can be a little challenging sometimes, so I’ve been doodling here n there.
The three extremes of Idul faces tend to be Long Snout, Flattish, and Beluga Melon, so I wanted to mix and match those a bit.

Some more Idoodles…That’s probably Ibalba and Definitely Nagula. Thought it would be funny if blonde is both a Pretty color and a Baby color, like that ghost pale hair kids grow out of.
I still cant decide if they’re Aliens or ““Aliens”“, but I’m leaning towards “Aliens”, aka either Intentional sci-fi* homunculi or Accidental.
*Like, Medium sci-fi, my brain is too little for hard sci-fi but also I like some rules to pick and choose
