Sketch: Voltergeist
Sketch for a map sprite. Obviously he needs smoothing but I honestly like the incredibly janky flickering for this guy so I thought I'd share.

When Cutter Met Ironwood page 7
So while I may have mistakenly lied about when NTO proper resumes (two weeks, not one; Watering Hole needs an additional page to properly wrap up) I hpoe a new page of C&I (finally!) will make it up to you.

Hey, Patrons who backed the pin Kickstarter!
I admit it: I'm disorganized. I *should* have built this into the Kickstarter surveys for the pin BUT I assumed I could answer this question with a simple email comparison BUT then I realized ... not everyone uses the same email for everything!
... If you're a Patron who also backed the Enamel Pin Kickstarter<...

While I'm hanging around Patreon, here's how the Vol. 2 cover shook out. (Wallpaper-res version downloadable).

You may or may not be acquainted with Poison Pen Letter, a mostly-fizzled collaborative comic I was doing with Jon Cairns. It was 100% improvised and unscripted, with each of us taking turns drawing a page to play off the other and advance its indeterminate ...

Throwback Thursday: v1 Next Town Over logo
My first pass on a logo for NTO from the wayback. Not greatly worse than the actual current logo but the aspect ratio unfortunately made it better suited to being a bottom shelf bourbon label than a title treatment for a comic bound eventually for print.

Sketch: Jonathan Hamblin
Four $200 backers of the Poor Wayfaring Strangers Kickstarter nabbed cameos in Next Town Over. Here's a preliminary sketch of Jonathan's NTO insert, who will appear at the start of book 9 (which is just weeks away, yay!).

Apologies! This one is anemic; I lost the file for one of the states. D:
Thanks for your patience in this drought of Patron-exclusives! When Vol. 2 is wrapped I look forward to more Cutter & Ironwood, more worldbuilding, more of everything!

Did a quick process GIF of this one while I was drawing it. I'll try to do one of these every week for Patrons. Thanks, guys!

So I was asking gold vs. silver because of this.
Which is now live.
You can get silver or gold -- people's opinions on one versus the other were so divided I just asked the vendor if I could split a run in terms of electroplating if the die/enamel was the same, and they said yes! So. I guess we had that whole convo for nothing.
An important question for my best supporters:
Which do you like better?
... no reason.
UPDATE: I've changed the image because I feel the original one had a built in bias.

Two game sprites. The first was a bit placeholder; we didn't know where we were going with art and we still kind of don't. But we've come this far.

10% off print copies of f(r)iction for Patrons
Hey Patrons! You guys follow me closer than anyone, so you probably already own Genevieve in some form, but it also just appeared in this incredibly fancy full color lit mag, f(r)iction, stuffed cover to cover with great stories and beautiful illustrations. They gave me a 10% off code to share ...
