TGW Extras - 5-03 Timelapse Video

I tried streaming this, but I drew for 6 hours straight in almost just one sitting.

But anyway, you can watch it here and now, in just 16 minutes. :D

TGW Part V - Page 03

Did Christmas came earlier or something? I'm posting a page in Wednesday for crying out loud!

In fact, I did this whole page today and I FREAKING RECORDED IT!!!

Expect a video later on.

PS: I apologize in advance for Derek's face in the first panel, but I also can't wait to hear ya'll commenting on his whol...

TGW Part V - Page 02

Since this comic began, I've been looking for excuses to take away Derek's glasses, maybe this is it? What do you think?

Glasses or no glasses?

TGW Extras - Part V Cover steps + .PSD

Well, this is unusual.

For the first time ever, I'm making the PSD file available (see it above), so if you have a .psd compatible program, you can explore the PSD file in details, play with layers and whatnot, also, it's a good insight into my workflow.

In case you don't have a .psd compatible program (Photoshop, Ma...

TGW Part V - Page 01

Even though I'm feeling this page is a tad too "empty", I'm happy with it's results. :)

For so many positions drawn without using photo-refs and weeks after any real drawing, I think I did a pretty good job. :D

And oh noes! Derek got a trim! D:

BONUS: High Quality jpg attached above:

TGW Extras - Page 5-01 Preview

Did you guys notice any change?

Me neither.  =o

But either way, Derek just got his mane trimmed a bit and now is ready to steal Scott's young heart~

This is a preview of the first page, and, for a change, I did not use photo-refs for this one. I also changed slightly the whole template and layout for p...

Golden Week Part V outlines (!!spoilers!!)

Yes! It's time to begin the 5th chapter (out of seven) on the Golden Week saga.

This method I somewhat used for the 3rd and 4th part, but it was somewhat inacurate, because I changed things (a lot) with time, but having a initial outline really helps, so I decided to apply it to this part as well, but also use the page scr...

The Golden Week Part V Cover

This is it, everyone! The Golden Week is back with it's fifth part!

I know a lot of you have been shipping these two, so it's about time we solidify their relationship, despite pretty much everyone else being against it.

Oh, such joyful times awaits us. C:

TGW Part 5 - Cover Preview

Tomorrow I'll begin my forced vacations, where I'll be going to my parent's house for a couple weeks and a half. During that period, I won't be able to work on practical comic things (scripting however...).

So, I wanted to depart by leaving you guys a little gift.

The Preview for the Part 5 cover.

I really hope...

Photo-ref Monday #07

I finally figured a good layout for photo-refs!

Also, in this last page, I tried using more neutral poses, unlike those other pages.

Something noteworthy too, is that I only used refs for these 4 poses, the frames with only Derek's bust and face close-up didn't needed refs.

TGW Part 4 - Page 40 (Part 4 Finale)

Yay! Last page is up, everyone! :D

It has been an amazing year, thank you all for your continued support and bearing me and my malaises.

I'll be taking a forced three weeks break (visiting family and whatnot) and on the 27th, the comic shall resume. I'll try and keep posting updates in the mean time, but other th...

Photo-Ref Monday #06

This time, with less photo-refs, because if I post too much, Patreon cramps them and they get so small that you lose most detail.

These were the ones I spent most time with. Getting not just the body right (it was hard to get Maria right in the first one) but the expressions too, took me a long while, but I managed.

TGW Part 4 - Page 39

Second to last page, yay!

No matter how far he goes, everyone will keep talking about Edward.

Photo-ref Monday #05

Page 38 only had referenced poses.

Once again, you can see how my imagination flies wildly through the creative process of the comic. All I reference is the position of the body, then off I go with adapting a whole anthro body to it, redoing all clothes and whatnot.

In fact, I only realized I had a rather loose p...

TGW Part 4 - Page 38

Which can get rather confusing.

Is the other team the girls team? Or the boys team?

But nevermind that, Derek just looks too handsome in the last frame!! *o*

Photo-ref Monday #04

Execept for the last frame, I photo-ref'ed all poses in page 37.

The top one was a composition between three separate photos, I tried resizing them to achieve an actual depth perception.

And bellow, my favorite refs for Maria and Nikki.

The coolest part is where I need to change the proportions to suit a fe...

TGW Part 4 - Page 37

This took a while, but I think I got all the poses correctly and just the right atmosphere for this scene. =D

Photo-ref Monday #03

Here some poses I used for Page 35. Originally I used three more photo refs, but didn't used them in the finished page.

Good thing people don't mind me using wallets or spray cans as phones anyway. :P

TGW Part 4 - Page 36

We're still meeting new characters? Cool!

Changes to my Patreon - Please Read

Hey everyone.

Unfortunately, as of late, there was that nasty incident of people trying to scam Patreons and whatnot, but matters got worse than that.

The timed-exclusive pages of my comic, that I post first on Patreon, were leaked in an image board site, allowing people to see it even if they do not pledge anything....

TGW Part 4 - Page 35

Things between Derek and Scott are definitely picking up.

But Matthew doesn't seems to like being left behind. :<

TGW Extras - Part 4 Page 35 Preview

More photo-refs went in the making of this page, but there was a lot of improv as well.

Anyway, things between Scott and Derek seems to be working out, but Matthew doesn't seems to have liked being left out.

Oh deer. :<

Photo-ref Monday #02

For page 34, I used a lot of photos to draw both Derek and Scott.

Fun fact: I used the ref only for the upper torso (mainly the arms), I drew the legs from head. And I wasn't wearing a dress shirt, so the sleeves might have looked somewhat off.

Anyway, it's late, but I hope you like it. :)

Patron Free Art Raffle

Hey everyone. I'll be brief.

I want to thank you all for your continued support and whatnot, and for that I'll be randomly making a drawing of a Patron per one or two weeks, I'm not sure about how often this will be yet.

This is for ALL Patrons, no exceptions. The catch is that the more you're pledging, the highe...

Photo-ref Monday!

...Posted on Tuesday, but eh.

For this new drawing I've made, I've also used photo refs.

I needed hands holding pliers and a focused look.

Since I take photos from very close ('cause my webcam insists on taking photos on the lowest resolution possible) and build up refs from a lot of photos, I had to redraw mos...

TGW Part 4 - Page 34

Trick question!

What will be the answer? O:

Fraudulent Patrons (Fake Spammers)

Hey everyone!

During the second half of the last month, I got a lot of new pledges! All of them in the value of 25$ (the highest tier for a reward you can currently pledge). Problem is, most of them were Declined. That means that the credit card was invalid or something of the sort.

There are still ...

TGW Part 4 - Page 33

Aside a few layout errors here and there, I think this page came out well. A fucking migraine determined to make my week miserable, and in turn, I did this page in the slowest pacing possible, but it's here now.

Enjoy everyone. :)

Extra

So, this next page has this scene with Derek rushing out of his chair.

How do you illustrate such a pose? I never drew it before, and there aren't many references of THAT in the internet. So yeah, I had to take my own photos and reference them.

I think it worked out okay. :)

TGW Part 4 - Page 14 (New 32)

I've posted this page a while ago, but back then, it felt rushed and I didn't wanted to post phone Scott's side of things, so I've removed this page. But throwing it away would've meant cashing in an extra week, so I've decided not to do that by recycling this page, changing only the speech in the end to make it fit. :)
