They're a bit too large for most animals to be pet tags, but here are Fable's companions (Dirac and Ada) modeling them anyway.

Zib's had some work done on his sheet of late, plus some new (old) clothes.
Also, a character who hasn't had a proper introduction yet, but we aim to fix that!
Looking forward to getting all of the new character design work packaged up for sharing. There's so much of it, hehe.

Fourth pig farmer / fifth Beatle.
Character design by Kasey Schiavone , with some tweaks from Fable and me.
We put him a microwave too, just for fun (or well, to check for consistency between poses).

We're not sure what we made. Something between a Wilkins Coffee ad and analog horror? Whatever it is, at least we had fun doing it.
Here's an animated sticker, in case any...

A peek at a little thing we have coming up shortly on the Lackadaisy YouTube channel.
Also, Ivy and Freckle plushies have finally made it into the
Sketch of Zib as an aging hippie, just quietly disappointed in whoever rolled this, um, cigarette.
Done in the last Patron livestream just for fun.
It turned out pretty messy, but that seemed befitting of the subject matter.
Hey everyone,
We've got a special VA stream coming up with week. SungWon Cho (Mordecai) and Jason Marnocha (Viktor) have graciously agreed to humor us and join us for a little chess match!
Some of the other voice actors and crew will be there too, and we'll wrap up with a Q&A se...
Hey everyone! With an eye toward producing extra animation between planned episodes, I'm looking at adding a $10 tier here.
The hypothetical tier would include everything already included in the $2 and $5 tiers, but...what else? I've never offered a $10 tier before, and so I'm curious wha...

It's easy to take for granted that everyone is familiar with the basic body language of cats, how their tails move, how mobile their ears are. But not everyone on the crew has actually spent that much time around cats. So, we worked up a guide for the animators.
Some of it's stuff that's styl...
In case you want to come hang out, we're gonna stream some production work and do a little Q&A with the chat!

Viktor's character design from the pilot has been refurbished and expanded upon.
We were running into some issues with his proportions and with his facial features drifting and appearing somewhat inconsistent in animation. There are a lot of aspects of his design that differ from the way t...
Things ranging from visual development sketches, to color keys, to reference models, and background art - most of it for Season 1 set pieces! (There's some overlap with mini-episode, shorts, and Season 1 full episode sets.)

In progress, based on the BackerKit voting results!
One thing I'm undecided on is whether to give into Zib's nicotine habit or not. Cigarette or no cigarette? It's deeply silly, but is it the right kind of silly or nah?

This was originally intended to be an embroidery design for a jacket. Our plans veered off in other directions this year, but we'll likely revisit this one in some form in the new year.

The band (Mozzie, Sy, Ben, and J.J.) already had animation designs from the pilot, which you can see at the top here, but they were pretty far in the background in that context.
We have a couple of things in the pipeline that feature them much more prominently, so we decided to do some spruci...
Shot progress, that is. Not so much progress for Zib.
This is still a WIP, but part of another vignette we'll share later this month.

Some character exploration and turnarounds for the pig farmers, Captain Kehoe, and Virgil. Just sort of a breakdown of how we eventually arrive at a design for each.
