Sketch stuff
Added 2020-09-28 09:14:21 +0000 UTCMy style has Japanese influences, but is also so basic and lacking in refinement that people don't always pick up on it. It doesn't fit anywhere nicely, a theme for me throughout my life... It all starts to fall apart when the characters face any direction that isn't 3/4 from one side. I never focused on drawing because I wasn't never very good at it. I couldn't keep up with other students so I gravitated to sculpting where I could hold my own a little better. As my life fell apart in my 20s I basically gave up on art, having dedicated a lot of my time before that to it. I spent about a decade not learning. I just kept doing stuff because no one would let me kill myself. So now I'm kind of in this weird limbo of being just good enough to scrape by. I've got a weird skillset now. It's kind of like when you play an RPG, but you don't really understand the leveling system. So about halfway through you realize that you've spent all your skill points in a scattershot way. I actually play a few hours of most RPGs with the specific intent to learn the leveling system intuitively so I can restart & do it right. That's kind of where I feel like I am in life a lot of the time. I really want to reset.
Of course that wouldn't really work because the specific set of events that got me here depend on the mistakes I made the first time. If I started with a clear goal I'd be some other person completely. I mean there's no point in complaining about it now. I have to work within the parameters of my reality. Still, it does annoy me at 3 AM when I'm posting sketches to my patreon, wishing I had something better to offer than my scratchings & a rambling ejaculation of words...

I've watched your work for years. I don't care if Thomas is essentially a reskinned Lupin the Third (he's actually deeper than Lt3 ever was). It doesn't matter to me that the women are each another aspect of your dream girls. You have created a relatable story populated by people I've come to care about (well, maybe not Wesley). I look forward to reading it three times a week, and even if I seldom comment, know that I'm out there, watching and loving it.

You make pretty much EVERY character who speaks a complex, multi-layered person. Thats a skill most people making webcomics struggle to build, and you do it so consistently that it seems natural for you.

2020-09-28 13:19:52 +0000 UTCI think your art is better than you give it credit for. I recently started back at the beginning and it was decent then but you have improved soooo much since then. Your art is unique and stands out. It's one of the things that drew me into reading the comic. Your work is only going to get better, might not always feel like it but I promise you it always has and it will. As for patreon content? Just supporting you is enough for me, this comic is my favorite and I'll gladly support it for nothing in return. Hope you are all good man, you the best.
