Thinking about doing Patreon requests

This is just something on my mind. Like maybe on months like these, where I don't have a major project in the works, doing some suggestions for you guys once or twice in the month would make up for that. Cause frankly, I don't like doing character polls for real, and it's physically impossible for me to churn out a whole comic every month. But, I like doing requests. I like the chance to be spo...

New Patreon Banner

Alright, we are moving now! There are a few things I'd like to add and edit here, but all in all, I'm happy with the results. I've also been working on that art archive on the side, and I'm sticking with Twitter moments. I have it all finished, but I'm going to make it public at the start of September. Same for this banner.

"Use Me" (Comic)

This is an idea that's been living in my head rent-free for a WHILE. I kinda felt like people would think it's "corny" or "cringe", but I'm a sucker for this kind of stuff. I hope you all enjoy! Also, let me know if you wanna see more heart-felt stuff from me, cause even here, I held back a little because I was insecure.

Hugs (Comic) WIPs

This one is gonna be a 1-pager. I thought about going for 2, but it's a lot tighter this way. Actually made me realize that I don't have to make everything 2 pages. Sometimes, less is more. Basically, If it needs to just be 1 page, I'll leave it at that. It means less work, lol.

I'll also throw In a quick update on the "Use Me" comic. Right now, the comic part is done, but I don't have th...

"Use Me" Cover WIP

I want to go with a Vintage Magazine vibe this time. It's been pretty neat looking at all the different aesthetics, and drawing inspiration from them. Let's just hope I don't get TOO ambitious for my own good. Some of these assets may be dropped. Like that bottom portion.

New Patreon Banner WIP

Not too much to say about this one. I wanted to make something with a lot of energy, but now, I'm a little stuck on what she's running from. If anyone has an idea, please share because I got nothing.

Maximum Overdrive (Comic) Colored

I decided to go ahead and color it. They're both naked, so that makes my job a lot easier. It's nothing too special though. But sometimes you just gotta let something be imperfect. Anyways, I hope y'all enjoy!

"Use Me" (Comic) WIPs

I experimented a bit with this one. Instead of making my panels super clean and straight, I let them be kinda messy. Maybe a little TOO messy, but I think it's a nice direction. 

Still tying to figure out what to draw for the cover page. I like to challenge myself for those, but maybe I'm just overthinking things. If all else fails, I have to just go with my gut.

Milestone Goals

After some thought, I decided to scrap milestone goals altogether. I figured I need to work on what's important, which is the content. I just want to make good stuff for you all. I feel like worrying too much about numbers is just gonna bog things down. So, I should make an upload schedule just to give you a more solid idea of what to expect and when, and It would hold me accountable for missin...

Maximum Overdrive (Comic) WIPs

I'm debating with myself wether or not I should color this whole thing. It was meant to be another quickie, but the lineart is clean enough so it shouldn't be that much of an issue. We'll see next week.

Quick Reflections

I'm feeling weird again. Even though I took a short break, I'm a little overwhelmed with all the things I need to do. It's 9 days into August, and I haven't made progress towards my goals for this month. Maybe I'm trying to do too much at once, but I just hate leaving ya'll dry for long stretches like this. I mean, I haven't even begun the next comic yet. Needless to say, I haven't been spendin...

The "Height" of Comedy (Comic)

I uh... really popped off here with the art. After I said I should tone it down. (I should really start listening to myself) But I really like that I try something new in all of these. It kinda keeps things from feeling stale, y'know? Anyways, as usual, I had a good time making this. I hope ya'll enjoy!

August Update

July was a good month, all things considered. I really want to keep that momentum going throughout this month. However, there are still things going on in my personal life I'm dealing with. It's taking a lot longer than I expected, but I'm taking it one step at a time. But that means that I'll have to hold off on any major projects until I get it all settled.

The Plan for August:<...

The "Height" of Comedy (Comic) WIPs

We are back on the grind, peeps!  I was able to sketch this out pretty fast this time too! I'm trying out setting up a timer for my sketching and inking phases so I don't get too focused on one thing.

Found (Quickie)+ Teen Mado Sketch

I'm starting to feel better now. This was supposed to be this week's stand in but I finished it a lot sooner than I thought. I even managed to get out a nice sketch of "Teen Mado". But now, I'm sitting here like "now, what? I finished the one thing I planned to do already."

August is around the corner, so maybe I can get a head start on setting up goals for then.

No Comic This Week

I'm not really feeling like myself right now, so I'm taking a small break for a day or two. So I'm delaying this week's comic to next week. I don't want to leave ya'll with nothing, so instead of a whole comic, a single illustration might be manageable.  

I'll update you guys when I'm back to normal.

X-Ray Vision (Comic)

I really wanted to just show the siblings being siblings. I kept thinking about the "little things" we do to get on each other's nerves and this sprung out from it. Bri is probably one of my least utilized characters, and it was a fantastic opportunity to give her some screen time.

Extra thoughts: 

I had a lot of fun with this one, I can't help but feeling like...

X-Ray Vision (Comic) WIPs

This is one of these times where I start asking myself "Am I doing too much?" I wanted to experiment a little, but MAYBE I should reel it back some. Mostly the backgrounds. They take me a long time, so I typically avoid them, but this time, I really wanted to add something to fill things out more. It all just feels so... empty.

But this should be a case of "do better next time" and not ...

X-Ray Vision (Comic) WIPs + Patreon Sketch

It's astounding how fast things are going right now, I'm more pumped than ever! But I need to stop myself from doing too much before I burn myself out again. It's a thin line to walk for sure.

I'm doing something with Bri for once! This one isn't very lewd, but I think it's the best dialogue I've written so far. I'm learning! One step at a time, I guess.

Christine (Comic)

Unlike most new OCs, I actually have a plan for this one. I can't wait for y'all to see what I have lined up for her. Back to THIS comic though, I guess this is the first in a new format I'm trying out. Instead of just 4 panels or 1 page comics, I'm going for 2 plus a spicy pin-up to act as a cover of sorts. I'm not sure how sustainable this will be, but I'm having fun with it at the moment. View Post

Christine WIPs IN COLOR!

I didn't intend to color it, but what the hell? With Double Treble coming out tomorrow, I may take the day off, so it probably will come out publicly next Friday. In the meantime, I can begin working on another short comic. Staying ahead of the game.

Christine (Comic) WIP (again)

This has gone through so many revisions, but I'm at a place where I'm satisfied with the direction. Originally, it all just felt plain. Like I KNOW I could make it better, give it more "oomph". 

Also! I'm thinking of doing a spicy drawing of Christine for you patrons to go along with this. Give ya'll something nice.

Double Treble (Pages 9-10) WIPs

And with that, all the art is DONE! All that's left is the wording, some speech bubbles, and some small edits and clean up. This was a pretty taxing week, so I might take it easy tomorrow, and finish it all up on Monday (hopefully).

"Christine" Comic WIP

I'm keeping up making short comics on Twitter, but right now, I'd like to dive more into some world building, instead some "LOL Random" stuff. I have a lot of ideas for this world, and it's about time I start showing it. Anybutt, this comic is packaged with a new OC, Christine. Not much to say about her now, but I like her design.

Double Treble (Pages 4-8) WIPs

Looks like we're ahead of schedule for once! The plan was to just have Pages 4-6 done by now, but I was able to squeeze out two more pages today. Only two more pages left! Hell, I could probably finish this all up this week! I guess we'll see. This is just a testament to how far a simple deadline can push someone.

Double Treble (Pages 1-4) WIPs

FINALLY! It has a name. Most of the time spent went towards making things more "dynamic" (like in pages 3 and 4).  I really like drawing dynamic poses and angles, but they take a while. But I think it was worth it to make things a bit more interesting. 

By next week, I'd like to have pages 4 and 5 done, and the cleaned up sketches for pages 6-10. After that, we can go full speed...

July Update

I can’t believe it’s July already! This month, we’re kicking things up a notch. June was a very uneventful month to say the less. I feel like I was being too easy on myself which led me to procrastinate on this comic. However, I recently made some decent progress I’m excited to share with you all today. I have given myself a strict deadline of July 15. Hopefully, this w...
