2018!

Hello and happy new year everyone! :D 

And thanks for making 2017 so much better <3

2018 started off a little turbulent for me, but sometimes big changes can lead to very positive things, so despite the current ongoings I am excited to see what this new year will bring.

I hope you guys are excited for this ...

Christmas Comic

The aforementioned Christmas Comic I promised to share with you guys :)
This was featured in this month's issue of the Norwegian comic magazine "Nemi", but I wanted to share it with the rest of you as well :)

The full size file is attached below :)

I hope you guys like this, and Merry Christmas / Happy Holiday...

Rough layout sketch; comic idea

( PS: Files attached at the bottom of this post: two pages / two files)

Back in the days, this was how I used to get my ideas down: grab a pen, start sketching one panel, and just see where it goes from there. No planning, no script, no chance of editing or fixing stuff cause you're using a pen, no time to be a perfection...

SPIKE Update

So, it's December now. And the self-proclaimed 'deadline' for the complete second draft of SPIKE was in November.

I have postponed writing this update because I realised to my great despair in October that there was no chance I'd be getting it all finished by November after all.

I truly hated myself for that, and this se...

streaming for a little while :)

Got stuff to do tomorrow so I can't stay up  too late, but I'm sketching and doodling now anyways so why not go online while I'm at it, you know? ;)

Saundance

"Saundance" because it was the least terrible combination of their names to title this ship with. I mean... Terrders?! xD

But yeah. Here's a tiny follow up to the previous post.
Old sketch but still relevant I guess ;) 

Harbour preview

So, due to the stress regarding the SPIKE novel deadline thingamabob, the Harbour 'mini-project' has been postponed for the time being.
However, I got lots of drawings related to said mini-project. And I am sort of tempted to share some of them with you fine folks.

I've recently decided to post more of the Patreon stuf...

Page layouts

A little sneak peek from a scene with Spike and Ray. Purposefully not leaving you any context with this one, sorry ^^’
Also, pardon my handwriting. I hope it’s still readable...?

Cycle

Updated: Livestream sketches

I just posted the file and went to sleep and forgot about it for the next couple of days, so I'm sorry for noticing only now that the file didn't show any layers at all and just one of the sketches o__o' whoops!
Re-posting them here as individual images. Sorry again :O

Livestream results

As promised, here are the sketches from tonight's stream :) I'd love to work on this halloween sketch later, finishing the shading and add colors and stuff. Meanwhile, enjoy the sketches in the TIFF file attached :) (tiff files can be opened in photoshop and hopefully any other art program that has layers. Let me know if the fil...

Streaming!

Setting up the stream now, so if the OBS software is cooperative enough I should be online really soon :D Hope to see you there ^_^

Reschedule

Omg I totally forgot about the stream last night! I'm so sorry... rescheduling for tonight :) Just have a few errands to run first, but I should be free from 19:00, local time (Oslo-time, you know?) I’ll let you know in advance before the stream starts :)

Happy Halloween! ^3^

So, ehrmahgerd, it's Halloween already! Perfect excuse to bring out your costumes, cosplay, fursuits or whatnot! Yuuusss! >u<

My plans for today is to head to Oslo real quick to deliver a rat pup to its new, loving home. Then go to this candy store that had candy on sale last week and see if they still do (and if so; sto...

The Shaffer Bros

Ok, so the dialogue is random, the age difference between Jeremy (on the left) and Charles (on the right) is inaccurate (approx. 7 years age difference, whereas here it looks more like... idk, none? :p )
But the whole point of this sketch was more of a visual note to myself on the differences between the brothers, both in how...

Mrs.

Updated design of Spike's mother.

Might do a digital drawing of her and Jeremy as well :)

Genderbent Sam and Spike

Just for fun ;)

Unfinished idea sketch thingamajig

Back when it was pride month I wanted to draw something to show my support and join the celebration. I still haven't finished it *exasperated sigh* but I hope to do it some day :)
Meanwhile I thought I'd share the sketch with you ^_^

To tie a tie

Something I doodled on the train back from Belfast :)

Travel Update

Some of you are following me on snapchat already, and some of those some of you may or may have noticed that I have made zero updates today despite saying I would. The reason is because I haven't managed to get access to internet at all. Not on my phone anyhow. And I'm not tech savvy enough to figure out how to share the wifi co...

He has never heard that one before

(I'll try to not spam you with these though XD sorry..)

Spike on Snapchat

He found my smut folder..    ._.

Snapchat

I created a secondary Snapchat account - using Spike's identity because I can - as a way of giving you, my dear Patrons, some exclusive little sneak peeks into the world and creation of SPIKE the novel, the comic, the whatever :)

The Snapchat "My Story" updates are available to everyone, but I am sharing the link to this a...

SPIKE mini comic: Pirates

Here it is, as promised, the five page mini-comic I made for the comic magazine Nemi, but now in English!

I didn't manage to finish the artwork the way I'd hoped before the deadline, so that's why it may look unfinished. But at least it's something, right? ;)

I hope my handwriting reads well, and that you'll find some en...

( a quick message )

The Harbor has not been forgotten but is being worked on :D 

Also currently preparing the five pages long comic I promised to upload in August. It's ... okay so it's technically not August anymore, but I will upload the pages shortly :) So stay tuned ^__^ 

Alternate Universes: The Harbor

Speaking of alternate universes where the rules are that there are no rules and nothing is canon cause everything's hypothetical;
There exists an Alternate Universe like this which me and one of my best mates have contemplated sharing with you lovely patrons. I will refer to this AU as "The Harbor" because a recurring thing t...

Alternate Universe non-canon comic idea

A hypothetical, non-canon idea of Zach having learned of what Charles has done to Spike, and makes it his own personal agenda to kill him. But will his stature put him at a disadvantage despite his skills with the blade, or can he make up for his lack of height and strength with his swiftness and speed? And was it a good idea to...

Request: Spike and Sam as dads

I'd almost completely forgotten about this one :O

A long while ago I asked you guys if there was anything you'd like to see me draw, like random shenanigans with the characters or just some alternate universe stuff or whatever; basically just goofing around with the characters and having some fun while waiting for the fin...

Peter

Peter N. C. Saunders, more commonly known as just Saunders ;)

Here's a little doodle of him in his early teens.
Fourteen years old, to be precise.
And in a little moment of having forgotten how to use words, speechless and mesmerised as the woman who unbeknownst to him is about to become the mother of his future child ha...
