New Comic: New Bar

New Comic: Laser Focused

ahhhhh it feels so good to be making these again

Comic WIP: False Forecast

I almost never cry, like literally maybe 2-3 times a year, and I really don't like that about myself. Lately, I've been feeling very overwhelmed and there've been many instances where I just needed a good stress cry. But even though I can feel that stuffiness in my head, the tears don't come and it's kind of frustrating.

Crying is great. It's like a huge emotional release and I want that...

Comic WIP: Laser Focused

Now that I've had a little break from these comics, there are some things that I want to change about them. One of these things is making the panels thinner, which will give me more room to draw. I also think it looks nicer if the panels are roughly the same line weight as the speech bubbles. This is something that possibly only matters to me haha but yeah :> ...It means I'm going to have to...

Comic WIP: New Bar

One of my favourite shows is Bojack Horseman, which is probably not a surprise to anyone, haha. Lately, I've been thinking a lot about this part of the show where Bojack's done a movie and he's doing interviews and stuff and everyone keeps being like 'So, what's next?' and he kind of freaks out and he's all like, 'Why does there always have to be something *next*' and I'm kind of feeling that r...

New Comic: Foolproof (and small Patreon update)

Hello everyone! I'm so sorry for this severe content drought over the last couple of months. Most of you are probably aware that I've been run off my feet single-handedly organising SENSORY: Life on the Spectrum and while it's been an amazing experience, it's also been *a lot* more than I bargained for;;;

Thank you so so so much for continuing to support me despite the lack of updates her...

More NSFW!

I’m back on my bullshit haha 😅😅😅

NSFW! Anime tiddies

Drawing NSFW is fun and I want to do more of it 🙈🙈🙈

RSD (2 pages)

Lamb (Photoshop Inking)

This was my attempt at inking Lamb in Photoshop instead of sketching in Procreate. I really do need to get looser but it's nice to have a solid reference for her at least. I really love inking hair... it's the best :>

Big Sketchdump!

I've been keeping up with sketching on my iPad when I can! Because of this, something quite dangerous has happened to me.... For many years now, my favourite part of drawing has been inking. I love making neat lineart, there's something so satisfying about it to me. I've always hated my sketches because they're so messy and not the neat lines that I want to make.... But now, I'm finding that I ...

Final Comic of the Book! (3 pages)

I still have a few more pages to ink!!! We're really down to the wire on this one ahhgh. In retrospect, I wish I'd planned more time for the adding of extra pages xD Anyway! This comic was written by my wonderful collaborator, Leesha @girlunleeshed on Twitter. 

We really wanted to make something nice to round off the anthology that drew on the themes of the book while also providing ...

Autism and Self-Diagnosis (Complete) (3 pages)

3 pages down! 8 to go OwO;;;;;;;;

Autism and RSD (2 pages) (WIP)

In today's episode of Bex Makes Comics, she tricks the unassuming viewer into reading something closer to an essay than a comic xD

By which I mean to say that hoo boy this one sure is wordy..... I sure do wish I'd given myself an extra page for this one hahaha;;;

Autism and RSD (Script)

This is meant to only be 2 pages so I'm going to have to make this way more concise for the final comic I think ;;; I always have this problem when I'm writing comics haha. Also my scripts are very much not like comic scripts because I don't describe the panels and the action.... I blame this on my aphantasia honestly because I don't know what things are going to look like until I sketch them o...

Autism and Self-Diagnosis (3 page comic) (WIP)

It was really hard to cover this topic in 3 pages haha, I hope it doesn't look too cramped on the page! 

I might reshuffle page 2 a bit because there was a paragraph I took out that was meant to go between the first and second panel and I'm not sure the flow makes sense without it xD;;;

I still have 3 whole comics left to make for SENSORY! The other topics are

1) Autism a...

Drawing Teeth!

I am very not good at drawing characters with open mouths. Even in my own comics, I will avoid drawing a wide smile or an open yell as much as I possibly can, because mouth shapes kind of confuse me! Especially when they're from anything other than a front and centred angle.

Knowing that this is a weakness of mine that I need to overcome, I'm making more of an effort to try and figure ou...

Character Profiles

It's very hard for me to get nice looking lines on the iPad but I kind of like the wobbliness of these in their own way. I'd really like to ink them in Photoshop just to compare!

One thing that's really cool about drawing on the iPad is that I feel less pressure to make the drawings look good because I know they're going to be a bit wobbly no matter what I do. And in a way, I feel like ...

Untitled Project Comic Page Sketches

Oh boy, is there anything better than drawing your OCs?

These are just some disconnected ideas I had while I was drawing in the evenings. The last two pages are much later on in the story.

There is something better than drawing your OCs, actually..... drawing your OCs crying >:3

Daisy Sketches

Hello everyone!

aaaaa I'm so sorry I haven't been posting much. Thank you so so much for still being here ;___; I have So Many Ideas for new comics and I'm absolutely itching to be able to draw them out!!!

Lately, before bed, I've been spending an hour or so in the evenings sketching on my iPad. I'm a little self conscious about my sketches because they're Very Rough and not pretty ...

Daisy + Lamb Sketches

I had a bit of time to doodle over the weekend and I drew my OCs :> 

After I'm done with the SENSORY anthology, I really need to get my butt into gear and start dedicating some time to working on my own book. I'm still not sure whether to develop this project or to work on Violapse.... they're both pretty challenging and have a Lot of problems that need working out, but in very di...

Flourishing (WIP)

Oh boy, it's been a hot minute since I made a comic. I'm really sorry for being more inactive than usual, running this kickstarter has been eating up pretty much All my time and evergy. I am absolutely itching to make more comics though, I've been writing down a ton of ideas and I'm hoping to make some time for them soon ;__;

In the meantime, I'm doing a collaboration with the Facebook pa...

ASD Collab Comic (3 Pages)

Wow I managed to get this done Just In Time oof.. Anyway this is a collab between myself and Leesha  @girl_unleeshed on Twitter :> I had a lot of fun working on this. It's always nice to work with writers aaa

New Stickers!

I finally inked these stickers I sketched out months ago haha ;;; I'm including them in our ASD comic kickstarter (launching on Tuesday!!)  but after that they'll be available on the secret Patreon shop!

New 7$ patrons, if you're not aware, there's a secret Patreon shop where you can get 90% off all my merch :> it's just a couple of stickers right now but after I'm done with this ...

Sensory Foreword

OOF I have fallen very behind over the last week, but I finally managed to get this inked! If all goes well, we're launching our kickstarter campaign for the first print run on Tuesday aaaa there is still so much to do but I'm SUPER excited holy moly

Time Blindness

What are weeks but a collection of days.... :>

Efficient (WIP)

One of the things I'm looking forward to about when it's safe to go out and do stuff again, is that when I'm making my comics, I'll be able to draw something other than me sat at my desk xD!!

Foolproof (WIP)

This genius strategy has not ever worked. Not a single time xD

Time Blindness (WIP)

Months go so fast aaaaa

Assistance Aversion

Ahgh sorry for the lack of comics again lately! I've been so so busy with this ASD collab.. I kind of underestimated how much time it would take ;;;;;;

Anyway I've burned through my entire backlog ouch. I'm going to be working on building it back up this week!
