Not much to say this week.

Ember and Mavis had to be done on much smaller pieces of paper (all I had at the moment) so their scans came out a wee bit fuzzy. Overall, I'm not terribly happy with this set.
2019-10-15 03:18:50 +0000 UTC View PostDefinitely out of practice when it comes to traditional inking, but hopefully I'll get better as we go on.
Not happy at all with Maleficent's entry, but I'll chalk that up to being the first one (definitely a case of just getting *something* on the page, just to get started).
Favorite so far is either Sam or Magica.
2019-10-08 02:41:35 +0000 UTC View PostHey patrons! October is here, and I'd like to take another crack at the Inktober challenge! Much like I did in 2016, I'm going to try and draw out a spooky cartoon gal every day, and I need your help!
Specifically, I'd like some suggestions for characters to draw.
However, there are guidelines!
1: The character should have some association with Halloween/spookiness. Either the...
2019-10-02 22:26:24 +0000 UTC View PostNot that there's much choice at this point, but the September talkback is going to be tomorrow, 9/30, at 7pm EST. I'll update with the link to the chatroom. Come on by and say hello!
EDIT: The chat is now live! Head over to http://us20.chatzy.com/12443479330161 to hang out!
2019-09-29 23:04:15 +0000 UTC View PostGot the two poll pics up; also been working on some commissions and comic pages that I'll be posting at the other site. For the exhibition pic, I tried to play around with some of Clipstudio's assets for funsies (namely the 3d backgrounds, which were interesting though not something I think I'll be using that often). The Auto-color feature yielded some interesting results (all those weird color...
2019-09-29 23:01:48 +0000 UTC View PostGot an email from patreon informing me of the following. Thought I'd share to make sure any patrons I've got across the pond are in the know.
Since we're still in the middle of a comic, here's an extra poll for all my $10 patrons instead:
And since Steven Universe just had a movie....
August's poll pic is up. Tried a different approach, playing around with a more painterly-style of coloring to try and get more of that classic pinup feel. Doesn't look like it has enough/proper texture, and I probably should have gone more detailed with a finer brush to clean things up and give it some sharper edges...but I'm going out of town and I've run out of time to mess around with this,...
2019-08-21 20:23:43 +0000 UTC View PostThe Talkback chat will be this coming Thursday, August 22nd, at 7pm EST. Drop by this thread to find the chat link-hang out, shoot the breeze, ask questions, whatever!
After some technical difficulties, the chat is now live!

Starting to fall back into my habit of trying to have a certain number of pages done before having a 'worthwhile' update, so I figured I'd better just put this one up before I get too far along that thought process.
The experiment continues, but all is not as it seems...
The talkback chat for this month will be on Wednesday the 31st, at 7pm EST, when I shall be either finished with the last of my commissions or dead.
Come on by and say hello to the corpse!

2019-07-28 19:41:23 +0000 UTC View PostFirst page of a new comic, starring the scrappy crew of an interstellar salvage ship as they pick up an unexpected passenger. Should run about 36 pages, I think.
As usual, I've overestimated my ability to get things done, and didn't get nearly as far as I'd planned this weekend. have three more pages in the wings, but they're still in the sketch stage. Will be uploading more as I finish '...
2019-07-24 02:37:09 +0000 UTC View PostOr Sixty-Smurf, or whatever, I don't know. Smurf-joke.
Should have some more stuff by Monday or Tuesday, as I finally start drawing out the next mini-comic.
2019-07-19 15:16:05 +0000 UTC View PostSince the upcoming minicomic takes place in a scifi setting, I think the question of Aliens is an important one. What's the preference?
2019-06-26 00:40:57 +0000 UTC View PostGonna have the June Talkback chat here, on Tuesday the 25th, at 7pm EST. Come by to ask questions, shoot the breeze, or just hang out. Check back in this post fo a link to the chat.

2019-06-23 01:34:01 +0000 UTC View PostSo, you guys voted to revisit an old character I haven't drawn in a while, and I chose Gatomon! Haven't done a pic of her in roughly 10 years or so, and it was fun. Though, I don't think this is the only time I've drawn her in roughly this pose, so I guess it could count as a redraw as well? Whatever.

Also, I suck at it, but whatever. Got a nice modelsheet for a character in the upcoming short comic done, at least, and some sketching for a ship. Aiming for something of a salvage ship, so I think what I've got so far kinda misses the mark; reminds me more of a cargo transport, with those forms on the...
2019-06-23 01:28:32 +0000 UTC View PostI'm feeling nostalgic, patrons. How best to indulge it?
2019-06-14 03:14:41 +0000 UTC View PostLast page of this story is all done! A pretty short one, but I'm sure I'll revisit these characters again sometime. In the meanwhile, I'll be starting up on the next comic-which Patrons voted to be sci-fi themed-and $10 patrons will be getting a .pdf of this comic in full resolution soon, so keep an eye out.
2019-06-02 20:51:28 +0000 UTC View PostLetting everyone know that the Talkback for May will be on Thursday, May 30th, at 7:30 pm EST. Come by to join the chat, discuss whatever, and hang out for a bit.
Finally got this done. Could've gone farther with it, but I felt the need to move on to other stuff.
2019-05-24 19:07:33 +0000 UTC View PostSo, as we round the corner into the last couple pages of "The Stowaway," it's time to start casting an eye towards the next short comic. Which project interests you more?
