Howdy! Remember that book cover I was working on? I was sharing progress shots? It's mostly done! I have to iron out the title treatment and settle on a final tint color and that sort of thing, I'll be working on some of that this weekend. But I couldn't wait to share:

SFAM 5 Sneak Preview #2

Hey everyone! Just after my last update here, we took the kids down to Florida for a bit of summer vacation fun to see their grandparents and to ride a few rides at Disneyworld (and help line their coffers for anti-DeSantis lawsuits, a side benefit). It was fantastic! And exhausting. Florida in August is a humid hellscape and the thermostat is pegged at 97F. But by the time I got back I was rea...

Patreon's Colossal Blunder

Hey all! I've been told that in the rush to switch billing providers Patreon has screwed up this month's pledges for a lot of people and cancelled their patronage altogether.

"Patreon changed its billing from California to Dublin for this month. So a lot of banks rejected the transactions as possible fraud.
This would be recoverable ... except that Patreon...

Dungeon Divers page 28 (new page!!)

Here it is, the completed page! All new! We'll revisit this subject in future volumes but I wanted it firmly established that guns are frowned on in dungeoneering culture. Eddie is a bit of a poser. 

This is normally where I'd post the original page but this is it!

New page! Dungeon Divers 28 pencils and inks

Hey everyone! Thanks for your patience, I know there's been a lack of updates around here. I spent a few weeks shipping books for the SFAM 4 Kickstarter, and then a couple of weeks taking care of children and child-adjacent issues, and now I am back at it with a BRAND NEW Dungeon Divers page, expanding a bit on the previous one and laying groundwork for future stories with a bit of worldbuildin...

Dungeon Divers 27 Redraw

Hello! After a break to do some Kickstarter shipping, I've finally completed a new redrawn page! It's very exciting, hence all the exclamation points. I have some more shipping to do this week, and then I'm back to Dungeon Divers for a bit, and so on and so forth until everything is done (or heat death). The next page is likely to be a new page -- not a redraw -- I wanted to insert a beat here ...

Dungeon Divers 26b pencils and inks

I'm still cranking out pages inbetween shipping packages for the SFAM Book 4 Kickstarter! Production will be slightly slower while I deal with all that but I'm finding time at night and on weekends and it's keeping me sane to do something that's no spreadsheet-intensive. 

Here's the pencils and inks for the next page! The inset panel is new, and the rest of the page is the pre-existi...
