I can very much recommend getting a commission from him. He's lovely to work with :D

Mateo Drawing

I loved Spellward Bound. Genuinely sucks it ended so early but it was one of the best webtoons I found. I started reading it after season 1 ended and stayed up all night reading it. I have been looking forward to reading the new episode every week. I wished we got more on how everyone adjusted to everything, but loved how much each character was developed throughout the entire thing. I hope that there is possibly more content with the characters, even if the webtoon is done.

I drew Mateo from a scene in episode one to celebrate the end of the webcomic. Thank you @dunedeca for making Spellward Bound

Hoy termina Spellward Bound y me pone un poco triste porque es uno de mis webtoons favoritos, pero me alegra ver el recorrido de mis niños ❤️

Si les gusta historia con un excelente world buillding, fantasía y camino del héroe se las súper recomiendo. Y si quieren leerlo antes de que Webtoon la bloqueé con anuncios, lo encuentran como Spellward Bound de DuneDeca.

And thank you @dunedeca !

Shout out to this bug I nearly put in Spellward Bound but was told it was too freaky by several beta readers LOL

[dunedeca]

If you ever got a chance would you return to SB to tie up any loose ends?

It's a bit too late now, I had to mush a bunch of stuff together, throw a lot of arcs out, etc etc. But I have considered returning to it in the future and rewriting it as a trilogy or something.

[dunedeca]

My god its a good ending but I wasn't ready to say goodbye to characters I love!!!!

I can never read spellward Bound for the first time and think of what might happen next ever again and I'm just.

The ending was brilliant and I just.

I'm so happy you enjoyed it, that makes me happy to hear! I wish I could have gone on just a bit longer but it makes me happy you guys loved the ending! Crossing fingers I can get a new project up and running soon!

[dunedeca]

Congratulations on finishing Spellward Bound. I really enjoyed reading it and I loved the ending. I remember when I backed your Patreon to read the canvas version early and it disappeared when it became a Webtoon original. Do you have another project in the works or are you taking a break?

Thank you so much for reading and staying on for the whole ride! While it ended sooner than I would have wanted, I had a lot of fun and learned a lot from the experience. It means a lot that you stuck with me for the entire journey! At the moment, I have two projects in the works: I have a finished draft of a scifi novel (Working title: Tandem) of a near future world filled with AI and a cast of characters trying to find humanity within it all. The second is an untitled dragon rider concept I'm pitching to WT. Crossing fingers, and hopefully I'll find time for a break in between!

Would you ever consider returning to your old Shadow of Israphel comic?

Oh wow that's a name I haven't heard in years. A decade, even?

As much as I loved working on it back then, I don't have the same amount of time or dedication to work on fancomics anymore, especially since the OG youtubers thought it pretty cringe. It was also RPF and I really didn't know better back than.

Would I ever draw SoI fanart in the future? I can add it to my list of things to draw, revisiting old fandoms is fun and my Webtoon is about to end soon so I'll be in between jobs. But short of it actually being my next job, I would call the comic done/dead at this point.

[dunedeca]

In your most recent episode, I can't help but think of this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8UjWwMtrETk

I love that video so much!!!!!

[dunedeca]

Aaaa I love the speculative biology elements so muchhhhh it’s clear you’ve put so much thought and care into these creature designs, even doing like. Evolution stuff with the dusters also having six legs and insectoid eyes

Creature design is one of my favorite parts of Spellward Bound! I just wish I had more time to go into that. On the plus side, my itch is being scratched by a wonderful new show called Dungeon Meshi hahaha

[dunedeca]

what type of music would be traditional/most heard in the realms and cities?

I haven't given much thought to music, but a couple readers have. In my opinion, woodwinds would be the most accessible to the water realm, while more rhythm based items would last the best in the fire realm. Elves probably get the most inventive.

[dunedeca]

If the (mucus?) that hylefts secret are exposed to cold enough temperatures would it freeze? and if it can what would happen to a hyleft if its (mucus?) froze on it?

Probably hibernation, but the water realm is relatively warm in most places

[dunedeca]

Are you considering releasing Spellward Bound as a physical book eventually?

Just asking for physical media reasons.

I'd love to, someday! I'm unsure if the opportunity will come up, though
