My apologies for being late with this journal entry; I’m writing this on the lunchtime of 6th October 2025.
The past week has been a very… turbulent one for me, given it was the end of/beginning of the month, when my ennui really gets to me (exacerbated by what’s going on in the world, domestically and internationally, but let’s not endanger my account by being too specific about ...
… is that I’ll dispense the archive keys next week (starting 6th October). Please hang in there.
Again, a reminder that this month is my sabbatical month but I’m not pausing charges after this payment cycle is complete. So it’s up to you if you want to dip out and return in November when I plan to resume operations as normal.
Namely, the next part of the Poking Around Companion Guide. This covers Parts 174 to 187. It’s in the usual place.
Kinda weird how close I’m getting to the current pages of the comic… which I shall add to over the course of the month, so please look forward to them.
In the meantime, please enjoy the artwork and thank you to each and every one who supports ...
In a follow-up to this post: https://www.patreon.com/posts/october-will-be-139193802 (from 18th September), this is a reminder that I’m taking October off as a sabbatical month so I can continue to improve my craft. Normal services will resume November 2025.
So please bear this mind.

Please consider this an official heads-up that I’ll be taking a sabbatical when September ends (hence why this is a public post). I’m not planning to post anything new in October but I do intend to return in November.
Thank you for your support and please enjoy this wholesome autumnal illustration.
... so I'll just get to the point. Been getting a fair few notifications recently so hello, hi, how are you? We good? Thanks for wanting to keep an eye on me, much appreciate it.
Some have opted to become free members, and that's totally fine. Heck, that's how I am on other accounts if I want to keep an eye on them and then resubscribe if they're doing something cool. No issue. 2025-09-18 08:44:01 +0000 UTCView Post
I am writing this on a wild, windy, rainy Sunday to ensure this post goes up on time… and I’m pretty exhausted (correct as of writing). But first things first; what this post is all about:
Bronzaa Shines
Infurlation Redux is coming but its taking me a while to put ...
Or more accurately, time-zones. (as seems to be tradition nowadays, I like to have an image to catch your attention wit these journal postings)
Anyway, this is a quick public service announcement that whilst Patreon is based in California, the payment operations are nowadays based in the Republic of Ireland. So be careful if you’re subscribing on 30th/31st – 1st of...
So last week, a friend gave me the idea to do Chaotic for this month’s Patron’s Choice poll. I had been planning something else but not enough characters came to mind, and given how chaotic things had been throughout August, felt rather fitting.
For context: back in the mid-2000s, Chaotic was a Dutch-in-origin trading card game that ironically in English, remained...
Man, it’s been an eventful August, but here we are on the other side of it.
Thank you again so much for supporting my work, especially given the tricky Tier-change and all. As always, am grateful there’s the trust in me to keep delivering. I hope you’ve been enjoying my works.
As September and the end of summer approaches, my thoughts turn to the future…
I completely forgot I drew this last week, hence why it wasn't in yesterday's weekly update. Oops. So, here you are.
I guess it does rather say something when I'm reluctant to run into him one last time because he's probably one of my favourite characters of the Wilds era. I mean, he actually did somewhat guesstimate the Depths and Zonai technology all by himself... I hope ...
Last week was certainly… a week. The world is what it is, and it’s getting harder to ignore events close-to-home, y’know? In any event, I’ll spare you the dramatic play-by-play and simply summarise it as “my productivity faltered.”
My sincerest thanks go out to a friend of mine who just happened to give me the idea this morning: I’d had something different in mind but didn’t have enough characters to make it up. (Given how chaotic the beginning of the month has been, seems rather fitting, no?)
So, for context, back in the mid-2000s, Chaotic was a Dutch-in-origin trading card game that ironically i...
Turns out I erroneously entered the 17th, rather the 18th August for the date the Silverbeck Patron’s Choice poll should close. Therefore it ended 1 day too early compared to what was listed. To atone for this, I’ll draw the runner up as a bonus piece (at the time of writing, I haven...
So, akin to what I said to those on the Goldios Sponsos Tier, it is somewhat poetic that my first poll under this new current Tier system is going to be the last one of its sort… kinda.
For context, earlier in the year, I was a bit of a crisis of conscience regarding a certain game and I held a poll about it at the time: 2025-08-11 00:00:08 +0000 UTC

I’d drawn a different image but given how recent this title is, I didn’t want to inadvertently spoil it for those who are actively playing that particular video game. We all know which one this is, right? If not, ► here. So please accept this...
