The updates keep on coming! If I ever miss a Monday, you are free to hit me. As long as we aren't travelling, it takes like the minimum amount of effort to keep you all up to date every week.
Though unfortunately as I get closer to actually finishing Volume #1, I've started losing momentum on it. As it turns out, updati...

I can't tell you guys in words how ready I am to be done with Volume #1. I want it to be done and over with, so I can send it to the publisher, finish up Riley #9, draw BorderlineAxo's character sheet, and then get back to working on regular comics. I've been wanting that for... months. And I'm sure you have too.
Now we...

Pages that still require some serious redos:
Page 1
Page 24
Page 34
Pages that just require normal-ish fixes:
47, 27, 43, 30, 29, 26, 48
And that is it! Once these pages are all done, I can send everything over to the publisher. My g...

11 pages left!
That's it. Then I can send it all over the publisher for review. Not out of the woods yet, not by a long shot, but it still doesn't seem real. Before too much longer there might be actual physical books of my silly story in people's hands and/or bookshelves.
This week I'll be hammer...

This weekend I took my usual break from updating comic pages to draw something else and I ended up delving once more into the wild world of animation. Then I made a thing for you all assuming that Patreon had an easy way to host short videos. It does not. And neither does FA? Like... what are these sites even doing, it's 2023...

Did a few more pages last week, still progressing right along! Went ahead and finished all the remaining text-only pages, did a couple more of the major ones. I think I'm going to go for a record this week and try to get a big chunk of them done!

Today's preview comes from Page 41... I kinda decided it needed a complete redo of all of its lines. I don't know what I was thinking, but for a few pages in early Chapter 3 my linework got super thick and like, EXTRA sloppy? It looks awful to me, even compared to many of the pages in Chapter 2.
The problem, of course, ...

Sorry this is late, today ended up being pretty busy and I didn't want to post it without including SOME kind of art. Annd so I drew Riley. Because of course I did. Having ridiculous hair does not exempt anyone from self-care!
Like I said, last week wasn't very productive. I didn't draw anything worth sharing, but I man...

Alright so, instead of finishing Riley #7 today, I saw a cute pose I liked, and so I drew this. What can I say, I generally don't like working on my birthday.
Minicomic is still on its way, HOPEFULLY tomorrow. However, in the meantime, enjoy!

Oh hey, I'm getting older soon. Yeah, so anyway...
Riley comic #7 is still coming. It's almost done, the Gremlin side of the page just needs something extra to make it a little more up to my own standards of quality. Probably be done/posted either late today or tomorrow.

I can't stop yawning when I'm working on this panel. I guess that means I succeeded at the thing I was trying to do. :P
Riley comic hopefully this week. It probably won't be done by Wednesday, again, but I'll post it whenever I get it finished.
And I wanna take a moment to thank you all for your continued support....

Why, hello there!
I have some good news! Last week I was getting kinda discouraged with redrawing some of those early pages for Volume #1. Early Chapter 2 (the first few pages with Max,) make me sad, and much like I did for Kiera on Page 3, I wanted to give the character a proper introduction in the book. So I had to in...

So a little bit of news, I've asked the Patreon admins to swap my account from 18+ to All Ages and they have approved the request. The reason being because the credit card companies are forcing Patreon to impose more restrictions on 18+ creators, and since I don't draw anything that's strictly 18+ here, I figured there's no r...

Alrighty, another 2 Patreon character sheets done, another 4 to go. This week/several weeks I'll be returning to working on Volume #1 and finishing another couple dozen pages for the book.
I'm gonna leave this here so the rest of you can see what's left. I still need character details from a couple of you:
Drawing characters with black fur is tough!
But here's Nell. They might be seen roaming around Kuserra offering their services as a handyman or repairman of sorts, using their equipment to weld and cut steel for whoever is offering to pay a fair price. It's an important service, since most people's houses and shops have...

Alrighty! Two more character sheets are done. Now there's only four left.
The first one is for Martin's character... I don't think we ever settled on a name for him though so I might just end up calling him Martin.
He lives in perhaps the classier segment of the Downtown, however, where he operates a business offe...

It's already Monday again. *eye twitches* Hopefully none of you missed the Riley comic I posted last week on a weird day. But if you did, go check it out!

I'm still banging my head against this comic page, but it isn't ready yet like I'd hoped it would be, so I offer this humble sketch instead.

Spent a huge chunk of the day helping over at Fenris Publishing, so pardon my lateness. They were having a major, major delivery today and needed some extra hands, and I volunteered.

Another week, another weekly update!
Chapter 1 is finished. Officially, at long last, and is ready to go in the book. Volume 1 is going to include chapters 1-4, so there's still a ways to go, and it's slow, grinding work, sadly.
Chapter 4 shouldn't need a ton of work, but Chapter 3 definitely has a fair few pages ...

It's interesting to me, going through all these old pages as I update them for Volume #1. Each and every page I open up is like a miniature time-capsule from 2018. I open the page, there's 70 or 80 mysterious unnamed layers and who even knows what I drew on any of them? Some are entire panels on their own and some of them are...
