The wait is almost over, y'all--Bandit Revolver will officially resume with a five-page update starting next Friday!
This was one of the more satisfying covers to draw, though I'm sure folks wanting these two together are gonna be a little worried...there will be mild content warnings for this episode, which will be placed on certain pages when we get there.
Going forward, episo...
Here she is, the queen of the pose meme of 2021, Jack-O! She's sporting her latest look from Guilty Gear Strive, and is just as cute as ever! This was intended to be released around Halloween along with Sora and Nyactis.
As an exclusive bonus, here's two additional palette swaps; one from Strive and a nod to a palette from Xrd, which just screams "TRANS RIGHTS"!
Jack-O kicks off a se...
Hey, lovelies! It's time for another progress report on what's going on.
First, off, I'm seeing some new patrons join the fold--hello to all of you, and thank you so much for joining! Every little bit helps me to be able to create everything you're seeing and will see here!
So, here's the rundown of what's going on:
Sonic stickers: These are finally going to into productio...
Alright, so the mundane Halloween Noctis drafts were probably a bit too self-indulgent, so instead I give you all shameless fanservice. There's a pumpkin and skulls; this is totally Halloween!
This piece will be available as a postcard in a future Noctis pack.
...you think Noct carries around a Prompto plushie? Why does he have a Prompto plushie?
Also, be sure to...
Hey, guys. So, getting back into the swing of things as best as I can to roll out the Halloween artwork. Again, thank you for your patience, and apologies for having to delay the content.
First up is Halloween Town!Sora, drawn as a commemoration for all the Kingdom Hearts fans I know who were excited to see him join Smash! As I've stated in the past, I've never played Kingdom Hearts and...
Hey, everyone. I wanted to let you know that my Halloween content will be delayed until early November.
My dear cat Lizard had been terminally ill for a little while. I hadn't made mention of this as I didn't want to worry anyone. I knew the day would come, but you just can never truly prepare.
She crossed the rainbow bridge today, joining my previous cat Raven who passed ...
Hey, guys! I thought I'd let y'all know what's going on at the moment.
*Bandit Revolver: Episode 4 will go live in November. I know I promised this month, and I do apologise--but due to all the Halloween artwork I've been working on, I decided it was best to wait until the following month to start posting new pages.
*Halloween: Speaking of! I will start posting all the Halloween ...
Making Bandit Revolver a (timed) Patreon Exclusive. I work on it too slowly to justify regularly updating it to the public anymore. I don't know when it would return to the public--maybe not until 2023. Pages will continue to be posted here (and I do have a time window as to when Episode 4 will start).
I'm considering keeping it exclusively here for the time being, though. I'd like to k...
Hey guys! So, I've been chipping away at a few Halloween projects, chief among them being a short eight-page comic featuring some original characters from a series of slice-of-life stories I used to produce years ago. It's been my goal to return to these characters, so I wanted to start small.
Unlike Bandit Revolver, the detail will be a lot more simplified--not as a means to save time,...
From the capable and wayward prince to the tired and dangerous fighter. The past ten years changed Noct in more ways than one. There's a lot to unpack just from this lore page, but I can't really explain it because it's spoilers spoilers spoilers.
There will be news about Bandit Revolver coming up over the next few days, largely the release window for Episode 4 and the printed col...
Look, I'll be up front with y'all: I've never played Kingdom Hearts. I will likely never play Kingdom Hearts--largely because I'm not interested in it and also I refuse to give Disney my money if I can help it.
But why would I draft up Halloweentown!Sora...?
Okay, so. Recently, he was announced for Smash, and I'll be honest, I was so happy for my friends and mutuals that were exc...
Here's the first of the Intermission filler pieces that will be posted to the public page through the end of the year! The idea behind these are a nod to the lore loading screens from FFXV.
Drawing young Noct is so difficult for me; I'm so used to drawing his older self hahaha
Wow, remember how I said that I was gonna have this ready by Friday? Well...Tuesday is kinda like Friday...it's a day of the week...
...I'm kind of a dumbass. Or tired. I'm a tired dumbass.
Anyway! Thanks for bearing with me, y'all. The complete unwatermarked high-res edition of Bandit Revolver Episode Three is now available for you to download!
Work on Episode Four is alr...
Here we are, the end of Episode 3. Luna's unloaded quite a few things about Noct that Prompto will need to prepare for as he accepts the task of befriending our grumpy traumatised protagonist!
--
As I've mentioned before, the comic will go on hiatus publicly. This will last through the end of the year. Updates will still continue here--Episode 4 will begin sometime...
Hello, lovelies! So, I'm working on a few Halloween projects (and I admit, slowing down Bandit Revolver has helped; working on something else for a minute will allow me to not get severely burnt out (of course, I am still putting work into BR, but for now it's a "work on it during my days off" kind of commitment rather than daily).
For Halloween, I wanted to do something different, some...
*sigh* My dumbass missed a typo on the original page (which is still up because I want you all to point and laugh at me).
I forget that editing is more than just sprucing up the pages in Photoshop >_>
Anyway, this version of the page will be what appears in the bundle pack when that drops in a couple of weeks ♥
Luna gives Prompto a little more insight on just what the issue with Noct is--she's careful not to name him or establish that he was the Prince, but everything she is saying here is the truth. The Lucian Monarchy had some very insidious plans for Noct, the damage running very deep.
It's probably obvious at this point that I have no love for the Lucian Monarchy and will drag them at any g...
The topic of Noct's well-being has inevitably been brought up--Prompto's right to worry. Also, when Luna alludes to Noctis's "unfortunate upbringing"...I'll let y'all decide if she's referring to his royal upbringing or his post-Crown City upbringing. ^_~
The next page will drop next Wednesday! Thank you as always for your patience and support!
Prompto is pretty aware that Noct lowkey finds him annoying, but he's persistent and will try not to let that stop him! Luna supports him, of course, but she also won't hesitate to (gently!) chide Prompto for his careless actions earlier in the episode.
This one is coming in clutch; I actually just finished editing this an hour before posting. As I mentioned in the Progress Report, the ...
I had been working on this design right before I decided to put a hold on new merch, but I felt committed to finish this one!
This artwork features Lars and Alisa from the Tekken series. Folks who've been with my work for a while know I have an affinity for this duo! I wanted to illustrate a special piece based on their road trip in Tekken 6!
This will be available as a limited ...
Hey, guys. So, let's cut to the chase and talk about what's going on lately:
BANDIT REVOLVER: So, this has been a difficult decision in the making, but it had to be made. I'm taking a break from Bandit Revolver...that is, for the public edition. The gap between the patron edition and the public edition has become too narrow, and my efforts to catch up ha...
Oh, hey today's Noctis's birthday~! So, here's a nice mellow artwork for the occasion~. I really just wanted an excuse to render clouds and try out late afternoon/evening lighting. ^^;
You can download the un-watermarked high-res version, if you so desire!
Luna cuts to the chase about her reasons for getting Prompto to befriend Noct. She's alluding to an incident that occurred to Noct prior to this series--it's related to a "failure" on Noct's part, which Luna mentions back in Episode 2. She will be giving Prompto a little more insight about this in the next couple of pages.
Speaking of, the next batch of pages will drop next week--I'm sti...
So, another thing in this story that differs from canon: just as Noct has actually spent time with Luna, Prompto too is an established friend of hers--and is intent on dogsitting for her (wouldn't it be wild if in a later episode Prompto actually dogsits for Luna? ^_~)!
I wanted Luna to play a more direct role in Prompto and Noct's relationship--her being friends with the both of them fo...
Hey, guys. Wanted to give you a heads up on where I am on the Nyactis Patreon packs~
They're pretty much good to go, *but* I've hit a snag:
I may have been exposed to someone with Covid. Again.
This isn't 100% confirmed as of yet--I'm waiting on the results of the person I may have been exposed to. If they're negative, I can proceed to mail out the goods; yayyyy
If they...
Hey, lovelies. Just wanted to give you guys an update on what's going on:
*Bandit Revolver: This has taken priority as I have fallen badly behind on the gap between this edition and the public edition. The good news is that more pages will be going live starting August 23. The number of pages in the next update are yet to be determined, but I'll know for sure by then.
Hey, lovelies! I managed to finish another page of Bandit Revolver. Prompto is once again at it with his Photography, and like his initial appearance at the end of Episode 1, he's focusing on East Insomnia!
And just like Episode 1, he's petting another dog ^_^
The background dialogue is something I wanted to try out for crowd scenes when the main characters aren't engaging each other....
Hey, guys! So, I've got another update on what's going on over on my end:
*Bandit Revolver: This has to take priority. I fell behind on updates, and as public and Patreon editions have nearly caught up with each other, I've had to put this at the forefront. :T I would have liked to have taken a break from the series, but this doesn't appear to be the case. So, for this ...
Who could Prompto be talking about? Y'all probably know. ^_~
Meanwhile, it appears Noct's hardass facade might have already started to crack...
---
The next batch of pages will, hopefully, begin dropping next Friday! Once I know what my progress is over the next week, I'll let y'all know how many pages to expect.
I have had to shift my focus entirely on getting Bandit R...
Well...at least Prompto is aware he was irresponsible...and is Noct being polite-ish?
Next page drops Wednesday!
