The final side of the slipcase for TOY ♥
The extra artwork we've finished during the Kickstarter was a nice send off for TOY, usually prints like these take about as much time planning and finishing as a full page! I really wanted to make the slipcase special, and I'm very happy with where it landed. I've been taking the time to finish up extra pages alongside it for the NSFW comics, bu...

I wanted to share some of the planning notes and concepts we did while trying to think of how we wanted to frost the cake that is Tripping Over You!
Here are several of the ideas we ended up scrapping; some of them even led directly to the idea we ended up going with.♥ I still like the scrapped designs, but the one we picked felt like a perfect middleground - not too plain and simplisti...

Just a little NSFW set of Milo helping Liam blow off some steam.
Planning to do short little pseudo-pages like this in between full extra comic releases, consider this a warm-up while I work on the next one.♥

I wanted to share some fun things alongside the TOY cover stuff so I hope you don't mind the mix of TOY and LIFT♥
The cover itself is still going to get a final color pass for the Kickstarter stuff after this, but I always struggle with colors and take longer than I ever expect, lol. I liked the way the purple tones turned out though, and I thought it might also be fun to see the inks f...

Concept art, concept art, concept art. ♥ LIFT has been in planning stages for quite some time now, and man are we excited to finally share this stuff with you!
Let's see what we've got here: We've got the evolution of the LIFT Logo, along with the final official version. We've got a few rounds of the main characters' designs, old (& outdated) as well as some final designs! We've got...

Hey lovelies! ♥ As promised, here's a teaser for the sequel to TOY - as well as the title! It is—

We're thrilled to finally be able to share! We've been waiting for what feels like forever!

Figured I'd include a few larger panels without text, so much gets lost behind text sometimes and this was a fun page♥

I added a lot of maps into a new folder in my sketchbook on the Dropbox, but for the sake of explanation I'm going to post them to the feed here in sets! You can find all of the maps in the folder, but for now this is all of the old and current maps for their school (from the start of the comic).
Image 1: Updated final map. I labeled everything I'd planned to it or have d...

This page was a big one for backgrounds, but I can't complain because they're some of my favorites! So much so that I wanted to share a larger version of that last panel. :)

This was a nostalgia trip, had to take out my old maps of the school again to match it up. A few scenes from old chapters might make sense in the space though, starting with the prologue ♥

Hello, lovelies! Owena put together a PDF of the 18+ NSFW Dropbox art from 2019-2022 (including a few from the start of this year).♥ It's 26 pages put together for easy download and perusal, though the full size artwork and some variants are still available in the Dropbox if you want to see more!
Going forward I'll mirror sketches here and on the Dropbox, as well. Our goal is making acc...

We just finished up a new print for TOY, part of a project we're super excited for! I wanted to share the final version all the way back to a sketch I shared in June.
Owena planned the background for this one, picked the color scheme, and laid out and drew the buildings for it. I finalized the shading and finished up the image over the last few days, mostly adding in depth and tweaking co...
