So here we are, got the finished page ready for you without needing to stay up until 5 or 6 in the morning. I'm kinda proud of that. I can't separate the text from the background on this one so the "textless" page is gonna be texty again, sorry about that. It's just how it's gotta be.
Hello! I've got good news today: after last week's update I managed to hammer out almost all of the rest of the page, and I'm set to be able to get this thing finished up this weekend; you should be reading it Monday morning at the latest. Keeping up this momentum I can probably get the next p...

Hello again! Got a status update for you today. This week I didn't get quite as much work done as I'd planned, but I got it to the point where it's all downhill from here. This week I'd been taking some more time to work on my health and well-being, I've been exhausted but I gotta keep the tra...

Okay so! I'm committed to trying to get as many of these pages drawn as quick as possible, and I'd just put one up a day or so ago, so here's the rough sketch phase of the next page for you. There's no time to dilly-dally, we gotta keep up momentum. Today I got most of the next page to share w...

Howdy! I got a textless page to share with you today. Or, kinda textless. I'm gonna be putting it right up on the main site after I send this post, but I want to keep with my practice. I think this is the first page like this where I'm encountering this situation in, uhh, maybe the entirety o...

Hello again! This week saw steady progress on the first page of the big action sequence, I'm expecting I can have the whole page finished within this week, which is a pretty good mark for getting these done quicker than usual. I've got a few things to share about this page so I'll just get righ...

And so it begins. This week I got a lot of comic done, which I'm happy about, since I have a lot of comic to do to get this scene in the archives. I'd said last week that I need to up my turnaround time to achieve what I want to do in a reasonable timeframe, and I think this is at least a good ...

This week I wanted to get all my ducks in order and make sure I had everything I needed prepared to tackle a monumental task: one last musical choreography scene before I lead towards the end of the comic. The song is Queen's Dead on Time, off their 1978 album "Jazz"- as always, the choreography...

Here's the new textless page for you! First one on the new tablet, and hoo boy is it a doozy! There ended up being all kinds of background details on this one and I, drunk off my new-found drawing power, decided to go in and include all of them. Or most of them, at least. I'm typing this now ...

Hello! We're rounding out to the end of the month and I'm happy to say, I'm on the last phase of the comic process and I should have this thing wrapped up before the weekend is over. I'm gonna be a bit quick today since I'm close to my target and I wanna just get to it. Once this page is done ...

Okay so, this has been an exciting week for me. Between last week and now I managed to get my inks and flats down on this page and start getting into some painting. The painting is what I'd been looking forward to the most about this new tablet, and this page is gonna be the first testbed for w...

Hello again! This week I got my new drawing tablet in, and on Tuesday I set it up and made sure everything was working correctly, and I think everything is back to normal. I was hoping to be a bit further ahead on my comic page progress this month than usual, but what can you do? Regardless, I...

Hello! I've got grim news today: after sixteen years of valiant service, my drawing tablet finally gave up the ghost. I'd been preparing for this moment for a few years now so it hasn't really come as a surprise, but it does mean I'm on sort of a forced vacation from my work until my new table...

Hello again! So, I'm glad I got that comic page finished when I did, because it turned out that three vaccines at once knocked me out for the entirety of Friday. Man! Lemme tell ya. I did manage to begin prepping a little bit for the next scene of the comic, so I thought that today I could go...

Hello! I'm in a spot of trouble today. Okay so, you see, I had an opportunity to schedule my vaccine updates for today, including the new Covid booster, so I got, three vaccines at once, at the pharmacy's recommendation. I'm doing the right thing, you know? But afterwards I realized, oh no. ...

Hello! Thanks for waiting for me. I've made it about halfway through the page this past week, I think I can get it wrapped up in the week to come. The end of the month is coming up so I think landing that target will get me back into the rhythm for regular updates again, I'm gonna make it my p...

Hello! Been spinning my gears up this week getting back into the flow, I've got some good progress on the next page to share with you today. It's taken me a bit of time to shake the rocks out of my head and get back into painting- shipping a game really, really takes a toll on you, and my body ...

What a week! It's been ten days since we launched Kitsune Tails, and the reception has been overwhelmingly positive! There's been a lot of bumps and a lot of anxieties and a lot of shot nerves; but I think, overall, people like the thing we created. We received 500 reviews, 99% of them positiv...

This week is the big one. We finally shipped our game on Thursday, people are playing it and it sounds like they are mostly enjoying it. I've been in a pressure cooker of stress since then, and I feel like microwaved hamburger. It's those first days, you're not actually sure if people will lik...

The other month I wrote up a post about how I came to arrive where I am, and people seemed to like that, so I think today I'm going to write about where I'm planning to go in the future. This is the last weekend before Kitsune Tails releases, it's only five days until a non-Dead Winter project I...

Okay so: hi. It turns out I wasn't quite as out of the woods as I thought I was. When I said at the start of June that we were pushing towards our release date a reader on her commented "good luck", and I understand that now. We've got eleven? more days until this thing ships and I think I've ...

At the start of this month I wasn't sure if July would go by really fast or really slow, and right now it's feeling like it's going really quickly. We're halfway to August and I'm doing cleanup and some final fun little art tasks for Kitsune Tails, and in about two weeks I'll have credits on a s...

Hello again! Welcome to July, the final home stretch until my extra work obligations are off my plate. It's been a hot week and I've been grinding out a few more things but SGDQ has been on so I've had good background noise playing while I've been working. The good news: I've wrapped up the la...

So it's been a busy month for me, but I didn't want to keep making posts about things I can't really talk about all the time, so I tried to find some time to start blocking in the next page. I've decided instead of crushing myself trying to hit my month-line mark, I'm gonna split working on this...

So this week I'm in sort of an awkward position. We have a pretty firm deadline at the end of this month and I've been putting all my time into making sure I meet it with enough time for everyone else to get their work done. I have this big worry that I'm not gonna find the time to make progres...

Hello again! It's a short work week this week, with the comic updating on Wednesdayish? And I didn't want to do yet another month of "here's my thumbnail phase of the comic" posts, so I thought I'd do something a bit different this time. Also, I have good news to share as of today: Kitsune Tai...
