A short update: I'm intending that this isn't dead as a project, but there are some good reasons why it hasn't gotten further in the last half year.
Reason one is my health - as some of you guys know, my joints have not been kind, and digital art is not a kind activity for them.
Reason two is where the story goes next, which among other things involves developing the characters' backgrounds. Given recent events globally I've felt less able to take a decent go at Faay in particular, given her background as a slave and pseudo-Somali cultural signifiers. I think hers is still a story I want to try telling, but I don't think I feel ready and up to telling it just yet - possibly when some other things are out of the way I'll feel better able to think about this story properly.
As such, Mountain Leopards is on hiatus, probably for a while to come, though I hope to return to it before 2020 ends. Thanks for your patience.
