i play on a bedrock server with my roommate and our friends, one of which includes his brother. a long time ago i got into the habit of calling minecraft "minecart" and was recently delighted by his brother slipping up in the middle of a conversation 2024-02-11 22:42:55 +0000 UTC View Post
Hey guys! I wanted to get an update out right away.
Once again, if you're in the higher commission tiers, don't forget that this is the LAST MONTH for commissions. I'm going to be giving you the forms a little early, basically right after this post goes out, so that you guys can have them sent in and be able to adjust/cancel your pledges at your earliest convenience...

a comic about how nothing has woken me up faster than being pretty sure my stupid fucking cat is trying to consume plastic for no reason
in other news, the year is drawing to a close, so i wanted to offer a reminder for those at the higher tiers: the last commission forms will be put out in december, so make sure you adjust your pledge/leave the page before you're charged again fo...
2023-11-05 16:07:19 +0000 UTC View Posti just wanted to quickly write up a bit of an update to let yall know where im at with things!
last month i caught up on my main commission queue for the first time in quite a few years, i think possibly since 2017? and WOW did i need that. it felt really good to, for the first time in ages, actually not have anything i NEEDED to be working on
im hoping i can keep up this bala...

Finished the next page!
Not much to say on this one. Today's commentary has more to do with the fact that I've been brainstorming on how I want to ultimately present and execute the story for this comic. It's been quite a few years since I first started, and in that time I've slowly developed what I think the story ought to be in my mind.
Long story short, I'm trying to figure...

a new critter comic! this month you get a comic about how i've been thinking of making a game. my partner and i have been wanting to make a game for a while, but it was only just a couple days ago where i was struck with an idea i think could be manageable. the plan would be me writing/plotting it while they handle the technical side of things, whereas for our twine game, they also come up with...

this is ichor! it's a shadow beast that serves the lindworm. ichor's job is to keep an ever-watchful eye on the princess and make sure she doesn't escape, should she make any attempts to do so.
ichor is a shape-shifter and can change its form as it likes (for the most part). its has a generally consistent size but can become larger and stronger by consuming other shadows.

i had to draw moira's other dad before he comes up in the comic! it's been a super long time since i originally conceptualized him alongside danny, and i needed to adjust him to have more realistic proportions and defining features.
we don't learn a ton about moira's parents in the comic - MAYBE in the post-chapter character minis, though i wont be able to fit a lot into the 4-panel forma...

another critter comic! inspired by how this happens like once or twice a day
that's my cat, akeisha (like an acacia tree, but spelled different). why she meow at me? it's mysteries
bonus: the thumbs i hastily scribbled in my sketchbook right after this happened, bc they crack me up
i realized i haven't been uploading finished pages here again, mainly because i haven't been keeping to a schedule since i resumed updating the comic. nope, just... putting them up right when i finish them! feels nice
but i'd like to get back into the habit, especially since MOIRA is an all-tiers thing. so here are the most recent pages since i broke my hiatus!

exploring the princess a bit, thought about what her first haircut might be like after she's taken captive. this probably happens two or three weeks after she's kidnapped. her hair is very long - ive found i really enjoy the trope of long hair being narratively significant and then characters (possibly) having it cut for xyz reason.
in this, it's because she's a princess and long hair = f...

as mentioned in the first post i made about lindbride with the stock portraits, one of the main characters is a kobold butler who manages the 'upper house' for the lindking and queen. no name yet, but i've got a pr solid idea of his personality: very proud of his position, happy to serve his king as best he can. has been under the lindking's service for many years, his lifespan elongated by his...

lol okay, so,
i wanna try doing lil comics. i've been thinking that i want to offer something that's available to all tiers, not just the upper ones, since that used to be MOIRA bonus content/updates. i haven't had the time to pick MOIRA back up yet, so we'll try this instead
doing personal comics is something i've always been really interested in yet also strangely allergic to. and...
2023-04-06 02:38:41 +0000 UTC View PostHi everyone! Here's what's up:
1. I've removed one tier and intend to remove the $5 tier as well. That being said, any $5 (Werewolf) patrons are encouraged to adjust your pledge ASAP so that I can delete it (currently, it's just retired.) You can either move down to the $2+ tier OR up to the new $7+ tier.
2. I changed the $10 tier to be $7 instead, and t...

hey everyone! so here's something a bit odd: basically, i wanted to do a little practice/test page in CSP. i'd like to transition to CSP for working on MOIRA, but i might need to hunt around for a brush i prefer. at the moment, nothing that's available by default really feels good to me as an inking brush.
i'm also finally letting myself switch to comic sans instead of the custom fo...

Main character references! The most important thing here would be their basic looks and outfits. There are already tons of little things I want to change (Poppy is a little too read, I want her to be a slightly lighter reddish-pink), but I was forcing myself not to worry too hard about making things polished. That isn't the point of the references! They're to give me an idea on 'established' bo...

The first concepts for my new comic!
I apologize for anything that isn't legible, I was just trying to get my ideas down as fast as possible and establish basic lore n such. There are some things written here that are (or will be) retconned or evolve, so don't take anything here too seriously!
The main thing here would be the protagonists: Ashe, Poppy, and deuteragonist,...

I think I'm getting my energy back for MOIRA, so I'm going to try my best at letting myself lean into this. I have the entirety of this chapter now fully sketched: only about 10 more pages before it's done.

Just the general mood for Carla in the latter half of this chapter. I suppose this was expression/pose practice. My favorites are the very first sketch (top-left), the running pose right next to it, curled-up-carla, and the small headshot with shad...
