melting

it's done, and i really like how it turned out 🥀 it's hinting a bit in which direction we'll go from here and i'm so damn excited ;; all the build up... towards things

and i mentioned this before, but this illustration will be in the book, too! <3

illu progress

i'm almost done with the illustration~ coloring takes longer when there are many small details, but it's also super fun 🌹

illustration wip

before i order a test print i only have a little bit left to do~ i need to finish this illustration and kan needs to finish the guest art, too. i also need to fix the back cover a bit, so that it will fit and line up perfectly with the front. can't wait to show you first photos of it! 📸

Extra character info - 09 + 10

that was it, the last two pages of the extra (for now) 💜! i'll upload all the extra pages on tapas and webtoon tomorrow. i don't want the extra to cut in between the next scenes, that's why i had to finish this first.

Extra character info - 06

lonely baby Robin.... my heart hurts drawing him like that ;;

also, name reveal of Noah's dad! His name is David and he is very calm and pretty chill about everything (the opposite of Martha who is bubbly and could talk for hours on end and sometimes panics just because it's time to panic)! 

they never had mu...

Extra character info - 05

look what I picked up again...! info pages about the babes. 

the continuation of the character info pages were planned for February, but as some of you know, something... happened, and plans were completely on hold for weeks. so i still have them in my wip folder waiting to be lined. i love these characters and it ...

Eli // token of affection

Eli has a lot of love to give. i'm not sure where i'll go with this idea yet, but somehow i began to spin the story around a "token of affection". i don't know what exactly it is though, if it's physical, or not. but i want Eli to go looking for it so he can give it to Veska. 

because it seems that Veska is trouble...

merch progress - illustration wip

baby steps on this one!! it's fun to add all the little details~ 

also i'm so sorry but i'm pretty sure i won't be able to provide a new update this month ;; i haven't started with the storyboard yet because i'm still not 100% sure how to draw what comes next. the next scenes are going to reveal something BIG and s...

merch progress - test charms arrived!

sooo... finally, they're here! i'm not very satisfied with the service though, it took so long and thEY FORGOT TO SEND ME MY ORDERED SAMPLE CHARM PACK. like really? ;; i ordered it so that when i'm unsure i could take a look at the different materials and how they look in daylight and all, but now they forgot to send...

merch progress - illustration / print wip

today i worked on this illustration~ i'll use this motive for a page in the book as well as an extra print. it'a going to be a high quality print (printed on thicker paper), and it comes with most bundles!

i hope it'll turn out nice. the colors for Noah's outfit will be black - white - gold - red 🌹 and for Robin blac...

NSFW // 📸

this is kind of a continuation of THIS 💘 because you wanted more~

Noah takes pictures of everything he likes.....

PS. what do you think of this sketchy comic strip format? would rewards like this be okay?? 

cover for volume 01 🐞

here we go, it's done!! thank you for your feedback on my last post, i'm always so glad to hear your opinions and i want to know your thoughts. i think this will look nice as a cover. i tried to keep the main colors blue-ish and red, just like the comic itself <3 

by the way!! some of you guys have already reach...

cover wip

the shading on their hair and clothes is still missing, but that's how the cover looks so far!! do you think it's okay like this?

also, a small update on the charms: i have ordered them almost a month ago. on the first of May i asked the company if there's a problem with my charms. i got an answer right away and they to...

Mermay - deep sea boyfriends

my friend asked me to draw them again and i had such a blast the past hours !! i've sketched a lot ;; i love working on OCs so much. i've designed them last year for #mermay and it's really the perfect time to pick them up again. their names are Veska (a ghost shark) and Eli (he's a lantern fish / angler fish mix) 

some more panel fixing 🌊

i'm completely done with fixing aaall pages and adjusting colors! it was fun to go through everything again and i see now where i had a hard time to realize an idea and it's relieving that there are actually easier ways to do it.

it's a bit too much to post here though so i chose a few more panels from the beginning to ...

merch progress + why smoke is a repeating element in the comic

the last two stickers are done!!

and maybe some of you remember the sketch on the bottom? i decided to use it as the cover art for this volume <3 comparing it with the cover art for the prototype, it's very close in theme (with their ghostly past lingering around them) and i might just keep this up as a (cover) serie...

merch progress - flowers and stuff

even more stickers!! now i'm almost done for real. i like Noah's little dumb face, i'm gonna keep it like that. and the Mimi stickers will be included in both versions too <3

page + panel fixing 🔥

lookit i've started fixing pages! i won't fix a lot, but i've chosen some panels i don't like much. my partner said I CAN ONLY PICK A FEW (with a grumpy face), which is like, now that i started, very smart. i went through all pages with kan and we picked s...

merch progress - bllll 👅
