Train Buddies

Apologies if my updates have been sparse lately. This time of year always gets a little crazy. I have a convention coming up while trying to stay on schedule with the comic, juggling my job and some other freelance work. I will prevail though!

I just wanted to show a cleanup sketch of Arlo and Archer on a train platform. How did they get there? You'll find out eventually. This scene is go...

Happy Halloween!

Ok, it's a tiny bit early, but this was actually a commission for a patron tier. I went full ham on this because I honestly thought the idea was brilliant! Stare at it for a second. If you've read Volume 1, then you'll know Enzo said something to Arlo in the hospital. *wink wink*

Enzo finally got to be Hyperdrive Helix with Arlo more than happy to accommodate. I honestly got briefly emoti...

"Chad" Sullivan

Ok, I know it's a joke, but I made a very much NOT canon thing with Archer having an evil brother "Chad Sullivan". Complete with a Steeler's football jersey and crappy light beer. He likes sports and the gym.... and drinking.... and being a CHAD. lol

It's late and I'm tired. XD

Ever have a day like...

Here's 3 Archer expressions in order (mostly) that represents my past 2 days. Sometimes work gets in the way, turns my brain to mush, then I struggle to get art done. Tis life, but at least Archer feels my pain lol.

Expression roughs

Here's just a handful of rough sketches with Archer and Arlo having a little chat over drinks. There's a lot to unload here, but it's been fun drawing some of these emotions haha. :3

The tables have turned!

Since the very start of my comic, I've had Arlo being the rowdy one, the partier, the clown, extroverted, brash, fearless (and sometimes very short sighted) with Archer being his guiding light through his growth in the story.

Then I got thinking..... >:3

Let's put a character in a position that's out of their comfort zone and see what happens! That's exactly what I'm doing in the...

It's been a long road

I finally sat down tonight to break ground on the final scene of Volume 2. It's a LONG one and you're going to be seeing a LOT of these guys over the coming months. Without any spoilers, let's just say things have come almost full circle since the end of Volume 1. We're about to learn a lot about these two when they're together for an extended period of time. ;)

I'm hoping to get the book...

The greatest villain

So with my absurd sense of humor, I finished a panel shot and decided to make it a mock-movie shot. This is a TRUE villain's dialogue right here. Absolutely horrific. XD

Note: *this is not the real dialogue* lol

Another side of Titus

After working on Volume 2 for over two years, I just realized I haven't shown Titus (or hardly any antagonists) at all yet! Welp, this is a little dose and setup for Volume 3 without saying too much. When Titus goes into action, he's relentless.

However, one thing I never wanted to do was make Titus a cheap 1980's stereotypical brooding stoic villain. He may come off like that, but as you...

More sketches!

I swear I thought I submitted this one, but I scrolled through and couldn't find it. I think I posted a few parts of this scene, but not the whole page. Apologies if this is redundant!

Mom and son banter... only the best. XD

Another Sketchdump!

I've been assembling many more of these lately since I was falling behind. I'll be showing these routinely over the next couple weeks. Some you've seen, some you haven't... at least as a raw sketch hehe.

Enzo and Daphne get the spotlight in this one. XD

More Cleanup

Here's a few more cleanup shots for the 2nd pass (no line work yet). I'm certainly getting my practice in for drawing NPC's hehe. I'm trying to keep all the classmates somewhat unique and original while not having that generic look effect.

It reminds me of the Yu-Gi-Oh meme from years back. I wonder who the main character is? LOL 2023-07-20 14:25:46 +0000 UTC View Post

A Morning Routine

The 2nd pass cleanup phase has started! Here's some cleaned up sketches of Arlo uh... getting ready in the morning... in a panicked frenzy hehe. He didn't exactly get that tie perfect either lol. It's scenes like this that always remind me that I need to keep practicing anatomy. Hopefully it's "good enough", though I never like to use that phrase. :P
