A little late, but here's the latest page. After a couple of slightly more decompressed pages I definitely found it challenging to get back to 8 panels of full on action, especially with Saturday written off for a rare, but unavoidable social occasion :p In the ideal world I'd prefer to have fewer p...

Static version of the upcoming page! Currently wrestling with After effects and export settings, but the animated version should be up..either in a bit, or tomorrow. I might make some extra tweaks later, too, like maybe darken the last panel if it doesn't end up looking glitchy enough.

IT BEGINS. This and the next page were done in a slightly different way to how we usually work - I started out with the storyboards first and Io added a script later. As a result, this scene is a bit more decompressed than normal, but I really wanted to, well, paint Dan tripping balls and have enoug...

Sooo recently it has occured to me that with all the upcoming...uh...events in future chapters, Dan should really look a bit scruffier, at least for a couple of scenes. On one hand, it's getting harder for me to make our protagonist look sufficiently shitty when he looks perfectly groomed ever...

So this week we learn that Lin's reputation is about as good as one might expect. Though Fixer better up his game after all that trash-talking :D Very excited for the next couple of pages.
Not much in terms of art commentary for this one - i had to rush this page a bit so we stay on schedule! This scene is pretty decompressed so I didn't want any further delays in getting it out. But i still made sure to include some little details to provide insights into Fixer's interests :) I...

So, while I posted most of these already in some form or another, I thought I'd do a megapost with all of it in one place and with some context. Few months ago I was contacted by a certain artist I like and was offered a musical collaboration. A D&W concept album! I was extremely excited about t...

Oh boy, this page was challenging. Good thing we're gonna spend at least 5 more pages in that room, right guys? But now that I've got the 3D model of Fixer's shop sorted and stocked up on some refs (Thanks to user grimmware for helping out with those!) things should run a bit smoother.
Of cou...

So, it's been a while since I worked on the comic with MCM happening and all! Thankfully, I have a couple of days off before the next con which should help me catch up. Been mapping up the next scene which is proving a bit tricky so far. Fixer's lair's definitely not gonna be the easiest to reproduc...

I know, this update's only a few hours earlier than the public post, but hey, baby steps. The bad news is that MCM next weeks most likely gonna set me back on updates again - but the good news is that I'll have a few glorious days off after, so hopefully I'll get to do a few pages in bulk and finall...

We..don't actually have bonus art Thursdays. But I'll try to get it to you guys as often as i can. I really shouldn't be showing any art from this project at all, as it's still SUPA SECRET, but hey, you guys give us money. You deserve to at least see a random out of context pic every now and again :...

Not much to say about this page other than this was my first time drawing an explosion. EXPLOSIONS ARE FUN. 10/10 would draw another one. Drawing our Russian Ted Kaczynsky's lair was a bit tougher, though, and I'm pretty sure googling bomb making accessories is gonna get me on the list, so I didn't ...

So, I'm still not quite caught up to be ahead, but the good news is that I have started pencilling the next page. And I managed to get all of this done in one day, which might be a new record. Sadly yesterday i was pre-occupied with another art test (which i might just post here soon) so catching up...

Hi, I'm Cryo and while Io writes respectable comics and accompanying posts, here I am, posting dumb fluffy doodles for I am trash. But hey, I had a long week drawing serious, useful things. Gotta unwind somehow, right? :v
Here's some layouts - 3 from the past pages, and 3 from the upcoming ones :) Hopefully, not too spoilery. So far I've been keeping pretty close to layouts when pencilling, with some small exceptions, like that panel where Dan's trying to lift the barrels - drawing out an entire action was a lo...

Heyyy finally done. This week I've once again failed to catch up with buffer to keep you guys ahead and I'm really sorry! Next scene is spreading over two pages, so I'll pencil it all at the same time, and, hopefully, it'll allow me to finally have an extra page for you guys again. I should also hav...

Hey everyone! First of all, thanks to all of you who supported us last month. I apologise for, perhaps, not posting as often as I should have due to being incredibly busy with other projects. But I figured I might post one of them - this is an art test I did for a platformer game. The brief was extr...

Unfortunately, Cryoclaire's big trip up north to MCM Scotland threw our production schedule off, so no new page today. Sorry! By way of apology, here's a little exclusive slice of behind-the-scenes concept work.
In Dreamspace, the look of Dan's DS-909 implant was never 100% consis...

heyy on time page for once! This week we're back to the character we briefly introduced in Chapter 2 - Filosof ("Philosopher" in Russian. I was trying to use existing Russian mafia names as inspiration, which are anything but sophisticated. This one in particular was given to "Filo" for being ...

Sorry for the late update, but it's 2am and I've only just finished it! (...which means that the final final version is likely to need some tweaks...) But yes. Digital Serenity people are back - still flawlessly colour-matched and still moping about clothes.

Digital Serenity goons are back next week! And, of course, they need new outfits, especially seeing how NoK00l's amazing shirt's now got Dan's lunch all over it.
I'm still deciding on the final versions, but N0K00l's 2 & 3 seem a bit too clubby for work at the moment - then again, I doub...

A bit late, but here you go! A new page : ) After a shocking lack of drugs for a comic with our title in the previous chapter, Dan's slowly getting back on the stuff. I remember suggesting Io we make him steal some morphine from Lin's place, but had some doubts about whether pure morphine even comes...

Alright, I can't show the rest of this since it's a super secret thing (or as secret as I can keep it), but check out Fixer and Mira looking like a bunch of 12 year olds.

And of course I had to rip off Patrick Nagel for board room art:
