I'm going to be retiring the $20 stream commission tier after February 2023. It's had some issues that I haven't found any great solutions to, namely the fact I am chronically non-punctual and there's no way to automatically flush the tier every month and give new people a chance ...

"Jay," you say, "you've been doing Inktober and posting art to social media every day. Surely you don't have many extra sketches to share this month."
"Well you see," I reply, "I'm actually in an elaborate Saw trap where if I stop drawing for more than an hour I die"
These are not in chronological order, and I inc...

While greyscale is much faster and less of a hassle, one of the few things that makes me miss color comics is the fact Talita's eye shine is red-orange like a crocodile. Centaurs are real spooky in the dark.

Another one! The first appearance of The Runaway, and thus technically Bip. Also the first appearance of bug ferrets, as funny little doodle guys.

This one took a while because my brain has been full of bees, and also I had to finish fiddling with the 3D model of the modular frontloader. The initial 3D sketch was made by MechMonster during an unrelated art trade Secret Santa, I just mashed it a...

Procrastinating on finished pages by drawing scenes from the wrong book again. Sirawit tries to be helpful and do some investigation on Talita's crush, Talita would really rather he not.

Some more fountain pen doodles. Outfit and character art, mostly. Still trying to figure out my main characters' entire closets, because I think it's great fun for some reason. I feel like I am getting better at drawing with no eraser and combining ink colors.
Been busy this month with moving apartments, which is a less...

Well, it's happening folks. 307 pages to go. I'll be sharing the first 3 chapters here as they get finished; they'll be subject to some minor edits in between now and publishing, but pretty much all I have left to do is finish the damn thing. I think it turned out pretty good! I am impatient and want to share it!

Took a break from drawing her work gear to draw her in Cute Little Outfits and now I have something approaching an actual character reference.

Badly needed to update Talita's spacesuit ref, the old one was from before I figured out how I wanted to draw centaurs. I still need to fiddle with the details and figure out the connection point for the liquid cooling system between the two body pieces but this is the gist of it. The nose of the helmet can be swapped ou...

Trying to figure out a "laughter" response for centaurs, going with something like this for now. It's a semi-involuntary head bob/toss accompanied by a voiced subsonic pant. The trunk curl is a normal centaur smile, the mouth smile is a Talita thing. Predictably, she's kind of self conscious about her laugh and will usually h...

Taking a break from editing book chapters to draw lesbian fluff comics. Someone on tumblr asked how Talita blows on soup with her respiratory setup. The trunk is a multiuse organ.

Figuring out the actual scale of things in the junkyard so I can start drawing finished pages for the first few pages of the book! Which is coming soonish-- hoping to start by the end of July? The first third of those book pages will be posted here as they are finished.

Some miscellaneous worldbuilding for the avian homeplanet. The poles both have permanent sea ice fields, which are difficult to colonize for life for the same reason sand dunes are. The surface constantly shifts (although much slower than a dune) as it's shaped by wind, currents, melting, and precipitation.

Polars and skimmer, plus bonus drawing of the tail display in flightless brights and courting behavior-- where two partners point their beaks upwards and twist their necks, clicking the lower beaks together. It's something like... a very formal kiss? More intimate versions involve neck contact and beak preening.
Something came up this weekend and I can't stream tomorrow like I originally planned. The monthly patron request stream will be happening on July 5th, Tuesday at 12PM PST.

Idrisah is dysfunctionally compassionate, Talita likes being helpful, and Gillie has a big gamer chair.
