Howdy, my gracious supporters! Page 356 is finally done. Has Ennek just stuck her foot down her own throat? Or has Saph awakened the beast within? Stay tuned... Rather digging this page, as I love what happens when I just let characters talk. Kenzi and Ennek make great foils for each other. ^__^ Just a heads up that there will be a slight delay in getting page 357 done as A) it hasn't been...

Page 356's artwork is done. Just gotta get the lettering, motion lines, and other miscellaneous items added. I was hoping to finish it tonight, but I've reached a point of being too tired to think straight. Page should be finished sometime tomorrow afternoon. For now, though, I'm off to bed!

Production is getting underway for the 2015 "Draconia Chronicles" Calendar, and in recent years, I have an informal, unofficial honor I bestow on a particular character who's become bigger than I'd ever planned for them to be. That character usually graces the convention order forms for that year's calendar. In 2011, it was Eone. In 2012, it was Naisha. 2013 was shared between Flare and Xhiani...

Pencils are done for page 356. Ennek's got a powerful pair of lungs, apparently. ^__^

So THAT'S what's going on in Saph's mind! I had a blast experimenting with this page, especially with the Lady Red panels, and Saph's adorableness as she gets "the vapors" just slays me. Enjoy the sneak preview, and thanks to all of you for your support, including our newest $10 supporter, Binnoc9! Enjoy the new page! ^__^

Loving how Saph's coming out, as the idea is to have her simultaneously lit by both a rising full moon and a setting sun. The background in panel 6 will be copied to panel 5, and as for the Lady Red panels, I'm tempted to go with a much more manga-like direction on those, with everything in shades of red and pink. I hope to have it all done Monday night. Until then, enjoy this latest sneak prev...

Main inks are done. Just gotta take care of scales, tattoos, and stripes. Saph is so adorable! I love the three panels she appears in! ^o^

Pencils are done for page 355, and we get a peek inside Saph's rather vivid imagination. Sounds like "crush" might be an insufficient description of how she feels about Lady Red... ~__^

Page 354 is done! We're checking in with Kenzi and Ennek, and it sounds like they might not be alone. Is a certain Earth Dragon who's out to prove herself lurking nearby? Stay tuned...

Pencils are about 80% done for page 354. Switching over to Kenzi and Ennek in the north half of the woods. These two are so much fun together. ^__^

Howdy, patrons! Page 353 is done, and I'm quite pleased with how it came out, especially in how expressive the characters came out. I've been experimenting lately with new ways to draw faces and heads, and by the way the last several pages have come out, I feel like I'm getting the hang of it nicely. Noses have been slimmed down, characters have more well-defined chins, and I'm realizing what e...

Howdy, everyone! I was working on a small but top secret side project part of last week, but I'm back on comic duty. Inks and colors are done for page 353. Just gotta get the backgrounds done. Hoping to have the finished page up by Monday evening.

Pencils are done. And yes, that's who you think it is in panel 8. Yeah, Lady Red went there.

Most of the pencils are done for page 353. I'm so loving the body language and facial expressions here!

Kighan's playing with fire... or something to that effect. Enjoy!

Almost there! The more I do the forest backgrounds, the more I'm liking them. I so dig how they give the forest such a dense, almost cozy look. Just two panels left to go plus word balloons. I hope to have the finished page up Monday evening.

Pencils are done. Panels 4 and 6 initially posed a small dilemma with their framing, which is why I skipped them last time. Resolved now, and the rough dialogue is in, too. Looks like Kighan's gotten under Eone's scales...

Pencils are in place for four of the six panels. Is there friction brewing between Kighan and Eone? Stay tuned...

Sorry for the delay. A couple life things got in the way, and what was supposed to be a simple page wound up getting many more levels of detail than I'd originally planned for. But I hope this uncensored look at page 351 makes up for it. I love how Shie looks in panel 4. Thanks again for your support and your patience!

Pencils are done, with a clearer look at the artwork this time. That, and I'm rewriting the dialogue for panels 2 and 3, so no point in including any word balloons there at the moment. Enjoy this clean, uncensored look at the new page. ^__^

Five panels out of 8 penciled for page 351. Really digging the visuals I've got here so far. ^__^

Pencils are done. Even if they weren't twin sister, Rula and Naisha would still make a great team. They write themselves. ^__^

A little past the halfway point on pencils for page 350. Enjoy!

The reward for showing initiative is being saddled with more work. Can Saph hold down the fort? Stay tuned...

Just about done. Only the word balloons remain.

Shades and sunlight are in place on the characters. Love the trio of Earth Dragons in panel 3. Backgrounds are next. Thanks for the new pledges, by the way! This page is gonna have a couple acknowledgements on it. ^__^

Inks are in place. Love how Kighan looks in panel 2. I'm gonna have to get Lady Red and the Earth Dragons to molt faster. All those edges are getting hard to keep track of. ^__^;;
