Stranded Updates PDF — Description
If we are trying to track Derica's transformation, we have to include Stranded Updates in the mix. This is where her and Galaxie stopped being the actresses in the pictures and serials, and they became real characters in the world. Even down to when Derica got pulled into reality, she kept her black and white look because there was no other information to go by on how she looked. And this is also the moment Derica and Galaxie met, and Vex appeared in the cast. From this point on, both Derica and Galaxie are real people - or something - they are these days powerful forces of imagination in their own respective worlds. More on that in the next update.

There are some other fun cameos here, including Ally Logan, James, Jess, and even Donna from Survivor. The series ends in a zany mess, and there is even an unpublished ending to this one that never went out.

Now, I wrote this a few years ago, and while I had transitioned to DAZ Studio, my cast was still on the older generation figures, so you will see a lot of retro looks in this for my cast, crew, and even myself. I needed experience with DAZ with a predictable set of figures, so I opted to work with what I had, improve their looks, and focus on learning the program instead of learning the program AND a new set of figures. I did that later when Phoenix reset my entire cast.

Also note my original plan was to go mainstream, sanitize my Patreon, and chase that fake world James offered me. Since then, I have wizened up, realized my fans like adult content, and I am comfortable with who I am and my art. I am not off chasing silly mainstream dreams to be accepted in places I would never even be let in the door. I will build my own empire outside your elitist censor-happy walled gardens, thank you. And my fans have answered me and now support me in a big way, to which I am eternally thankful. And the original plan was for Vex to do his own thing, but now he is onboard and we both publish together, which is better for both of us since we are one studio, stronger together.
