This week I had plans to get two or three minis done. I had another mini half-done but I had to put that one on hold- there's a couple characters in the main comic who I want to keep as a bit of a mystery as to what their fate will be, so putting them in minis would sort of impact that in a...

Hello again! I've been making speedy progress on the next page, and I think I can have it done this weekend, or probably some time tomorrow specifically. This scene being indoors and pretty close-quarters is a big contrast to the previous page's outdoor shot and crowd scene, so I'm ha...

This one's a bit of a brief update. I could summarize it in one sentence as "I finished up standardizing all the large level backgrounds", but there's a bit more to say about the process so I'll give it a couple paragraphs before I push send and get some dinner in me.
In my last gamedev upd...

Hello! I've got the next page penciled for you this week. This is a fun one, so I'll just get right into it!
While I've been working on the minicomics there's been a recurring sub-theme of scenes at Alice's job in the Tombstone medical ward. I'd been planning this scene fo...

Hello again! I've got a lot of progress done on this page, I expect I should be able to have it finished up this weekend. I had my first COVID-19 vaccination yesterday so I got a little bit of that weird-feeling brain today, but I'll do my best to deliver an enjoyable write-up for you...

Hello again! This week I focused entirely on minis. I'll have main comic progress to report next Friday, but for today I've got five new strips to share! I managed to make it to five-and-a-half, but the last half comic is going to have to wait until next week. For now, tho...

Hello again! Last week I hadn't had time to draw up new minicomics, since I posted a new comic update basically on Friday, and I ended up burning a week off my buffer. That's what it's there for, but I'd like to shore it back up. This week I had a bunch of things I needed to han...

Hello again! I've got some new comic sketches to share with you today. I've been working towards this page for a while, since it sort of caps off one scene and when it goes up I can start working on the next, so I'm excited to get it done. Today I'll go into the sketch phase wri...

Hello! Here's the textless version of this page for you to enjoy before I apply text and put it online.

So my plan this week was to try and get four minicomics done, but I gassed out a little bit and only got three. But! I figure if instead of overworking myself I just do three minis next week too I'll have retroactively hit my goal for this week, which is my current plan. Three i...

Hello again! This week has been very busy, I've been juggling a few tasks with dayjob gamedev work so I didn't get as much of the comic painted as I wanted to, but I expect to be able to finish the rest of this page this week. It's felt like I've had a lot on my plate this past year, and I'...

Hello! Last week was a bit of a crunch on work stuff and I didn't have room to make more minis. I managed to get two-and-a-half done this week, so if I can do three-and-a-half next week then I'll be back up to where I was before, which I think I can manage. But for now, here's a...

Hello again! This week I made a bit more initial progress than usual, so the first work report preview of this page is already at the inked-and-flat toned stage. My gamedev work was a bit lighter so I put that time into working on the comic, and I think I can probably have this page d...

So I have a bit of a confession to make. Normally when I've been posting these minicomic batches I've been putting up work I did earlier in the week, but lately I've found myself finishing minicomics on Friday before I make my write-ups. These minis have been good for raising and main...
