Um, I don't think my comics are popular enough to warrant "extra things". (Unfortunately)
I have done some extra doodles and posted them to DA, but that's it. I have posted some of them here on my profile.

Like this, which is my icon.
I do at one point want to make a dumb VN. Though my major issue is that I want to make it a VN/birdeye view hybrid and I haven't found a program which can help me with that, GameMaker doesn't run on my computer.
I've done a lot of extra art for both of my comics - as I don't have the patience to do anything like animations xD
I've done a side comic for one story and a ton of extra art for my current comic, as well as figurines!
then the side comic for my other story which I'm still building a buffer for...which i made all in one sitting instead of working on my comics...
At one point I tried to make a joke dating simulator via Renpy but python was a pain to work with so I didn't get very far.
I also forgot I actually had charms made of one of the MC's of my new story as well! because my friend had an opening in her charm order and she decided to ask if I wanted to make anything. this was a while ago so mine is a lil scuffed up
Man, the passion in here for the stories you create is utterly intoxicating~ Beautiful stuff, it's so exciting seeing the extra work you put forth!
For me, I do lots of side-arcs, twine stories, and illustrations. I'm deeply in love with the illustrative process (my first love) so I make tons of illustrations featuring my main characters!
And I'm working on making little mobile charms using that shrink paper method? SOON!
I made some character in a game called garry's mod idk?
other random sketches that make 0 sense. theres a bunch but im just show 2
edit: omg i forgot this fella
Well I made a trailor for one of my comics Garden Of Mold:
I also made an album for this comic Forgive or Forget:
https://alannanikol.bandcamp.com/album/forgive-or-forget
A few other pieces of music on my bandcamp also have to do with that comic. I'm already composing an album to an upcoming comic.
I used casting resins. So first I shaped it with clay then make a mold for it then cast the resin on the mold. When it hardens I then paint it... Yeah it's a long process. XD
Motsuro Project has basically become my life...like literally all my days are spent this summer when I'm not working is making buffer pages for it for when I go to college in the fall (I have it up to like November 30...LOL). I like doodling my characters in class or like just researching say 1930's Shanghai or the Tang Dynasty or literally anything related to my comic lol.
Honestly I need a life...
omg @ everyone who does videos for their comic and extra series and quizzes and UGH these are such cool ideas!!
i stream character sketches and comic pages (without text to avoid spoiling the episode) and work on comical sidecomics that don't really fit with the main story, but serve as a nice break from the plot. when i hit 5k subs and my comic1 had its first tapastic bday i made a formal "thank you" animation!
i also asked what people wanted to see, so i'm working on tutorials, too! (here's the "thank you" gif and part of a bonus comic)
like a lot of people have said, i need to wait before sharing certain extra things to avoid spoilers lmao but i hope to do q&a and formal speedpaints in ~the future~ 0-":
Right now I am running an AMA event after reaching 300 subs. It ain't going as well as I'd like since I think most of my readers are lurkers, but, watchagonnado, right? I also do illustrations for holidays, the basic stuff. I wanna start doing live-streaming after I get a better computer (waiting on them student loans to kick in!). Other than that, that's it, lol. I wanna do more for BH, though! I feel like the series is picking up more steam now and I am excited!
Well, I do a lot of stuff related to Grassblades, both for regular readers and for Patreon-backers. Regular readers here on Tapastic get milestone thank-you pictures, for example, and I did a big Q&A once I hit my 1 year anniversary.
Backers on Patreon get desktop wallpapers, extra sketch-comics between chapters, weekly sketchposts, Q&As, PDF-downloads of chapters, silly doodles and background info on the world, characters and plot, etc. I also let my backers name some of the minor background characters! =)
I've made glow in the dark charms for my comic Soul Ascendance the last one is finally gone.
I also made two large posters that have been sold as well
Oh, I've done some extras for SPEJS like greeting cards during Christmas and Valentine!
Last year, I made some glow in the dark charms of Ragna and Gav that I made into ear rings, key chains and other stuff =)
I've also made some prints :3
Right now, I'm finalizing some comics to answer some questions my readers asked my characters a few weeks ago (those comics will run during August, starting next week!), and I really like it! It feels like I'm interacting a bit more, which is really fun and makes me think in new ways =)
I've definitely not done enough! For the moment, I just try to stay on top of the work, but I have plans on making an art vlog and post processes and stuff. I've been having a "fun fact" section on my mind too, as there are so many details readers would probably miss!
I also made a clay figurine once for a short animation project and it was hella fun! I'd love to do this for "Crass" as well someday.
I don't feel like I'm ready for Patreon just yet maybe far in the future.
OH GOSH, thank you so much. I'm not so confident in my chibi skills so that's really awesome to hear you like it!
@heterodont, those creature figurines are so bloody cool, I love how the designs translate into 3D! They have such sweet details on them, too, that's seriously awesome.
@Savannah The glow in the dark charm is too cool (the shape is awesome but man alive, that design translates perfectly into something neat to carry around), no wonder you're outta those things!
I created an official website1 for Cosmos Song containing character information, extras, story content and more. I also try to draw as much artwork for the comic as possible. I have a really tight schedule s that can be difficult xD!
I've done more that anyone will care about reading here, but most importantly, I made a knitted nina XD
now, this is like the 3rd ever thing I made after randomly finding a spool knitter thing at home, so I know she's not perfect or anything
but I just find the idea of a small nina doll thing existing in a real physical world absolutely hilarious X'D
I will probably make the rest of the characters at some point too
