Woah what's that???

CTC Sketch Page 26

Caine's a lot more wiggly with his shape-shifting than Conner or Thaddeus. Also, more wiggly in general.

You're not dumb just because you're not good at something, kid.

Scuds are Like Ferns Now

This post has been slow coming, but I'm taking my time and doing it right. So I decided to do something really weird with scud reproductive cycles, and now they are more like ferns, and are also essentially wind-pollinated?

Talita Meets Guimar

Guiomar's default conversational mode is "vaguely flirtatious" and Talita is easily flustered... a great combination.

Mǐn Skeleton

I've had this rough hexapodal design for winged humans going on 6 years now, and I've only just started to hammer out the  exact anatomy for it... this is why: AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA TOO MANY SHOULDER BLADES

He is better at French, but also terrible with maps in general.

Hey Sam hows biz

CTC Sketch Page 22

Caine is pretty cavalier about this whole transformation deal.

CTC Sketch Page 21

Hey it's Caine!! These pages are also from 4/5 years ago, so how I draw Caine's bat face is.... different and better now.

Bonus Comic: Midnight Snack

Doodled this one while thinking about how much the HAL9000 esque evil AI tropes bore me. Bip is a prankster and an ex-criminal, but hardly malevolent.

Gillie's just trying to get a snack from the food printer.

Scuds Post WIP

Baby scuds!! I've been considering a bunch of possible names for these guys, since i think most people associate "scuds" with vehicle mounted missiles and not amphipods. Other possibilities are mitten crabs, mitten shrimp, or krill. Limpets might be a cute name too... it would be fairly realistic for them to have a couple differ...

It's probably not a great idea to sleep with your current employer/landlord, Thad, even if you've done it before.

It's a very crimes kind of day in New Pari.

CTC Sketch Page 18

This page looks weird and Marie looks like a different person because I drew it over 4 years ago.... time machine noises

CTC Sketch Page 17

Awkward short page bc I still need to work out a junction between this and the next.

Announcement

I'm considering changing up the $2 teir reward...

I think it would be more practical for my workload and business model to have the reward be previews of tumblr posts and concepts I'm working on, rather than only exclusive drawings. My tumblr posts are my advertisement for this  patreon, and I feel like I haven't been abl...

Bonus Comic: Social Standards

Pinkie and Brownie are the two ferrets in the Runaway crew (those are nicknames, their real names are a series of movements) and sort of odd ducks as far as ferrets go. 

Pinkie is antisocial by ferret standards, ie, tolerates being alone and can get overwhelmed in large social junctions were everyone talks at once in thre...

Annoucement

Bonus comic should be out tommorrow, thank you for your patience!

Also, I'm renaming Dachshund and Lex to Victor and Lex. I'll make this edit on tumblr when I'm more up to changing a billion tags and post descriptions =~=

New Sapient Aliens??: Scuds

This is still very much a work in progess, but I figured here was the best place to share early concept work.

These guys would be the 5th species of sapient alien in Runaway to the Stars, and knowing about their existance is.... maybe spoilers? The Staraways plot is very loose right now, being my most recent project, but these...

Sketch Page: Food Printer and V&L

I didn't have many great ideas for sketches to share here this month, so I did a page of Stuff I'm working on for future tumblr posts. 

The top is stuff for Victor and Lex, my neglected second fantasy story. CTC plays it more fast and loose with the magical creatures, in V&L they have much more worldbuilding and evolu...

Life Advice: don't deal with your problems by turning into a giant bird, especially in a region where giant shapeshifting birds are feared and vilified.

Hey, that storefront sure looks familiar .

Thaddeus.... stop being rude and listen to the hippie bird man.

Avian crest colormorphs

Avian brights produce three skin pigments: the usual blackish brown, cyan, and yellow. Normally the colors come in seperated bands of yellow and blue, with some difference in spacing, ratios, and intensity. But, there are some disorders and genetic conditions where the coloring is disrupted, the image aboveshows the extreme vers...

High talk for someone drinking out of a puddle because they're too lazy to find a safe place to transform, Thaddeus

The lines were too light on this page for my scanner to work, so I took a photo, but that was equally shitty, so I started to sketch lines over everything, but then got lazy and only did the speech bubbles. It'll...

Bonus comic: Disconnect 2

Talita and Gillie find ways around their communication gap. :^)

Centaurs can make a subsonic booming noise through the air outtakes on their sides. This is below normal human hearing range, but can cause noticable vibration in closed quarters. Talita didn't grow up among centaurs and doesn't know any of the boom-speak language...

Bonus Comic: Disconnect 1

Centaurs are a newcomer to the galactic playing field, and still rare enough that efforts at inclusion are dismal. Even though neither avians nor centaurs have nible hands with lots of digits, avians have a lot more resources available for learning and speaking sign languages.

This is inconvenient for Talita because Gillie, on...

Delay

The next bonus comic is a little delayed by should be out tonight. It turned out longer than usual.
