LIN'S TOURS BEGIN.
I feel like this page took me way longer than it looks. Oh well :v I guess 6 panels worth of backgrounds will do that, but it was my idea to introduce a montage page rather than just have them sit there and talk about what they've seen, so I've got no one but myself to bl...

Ah, another talky page. Always a challenge to frame these in an interesting way, but hopefully Lin can make up for it :D She is, once again, back in the picture and things won't be boring for a while.

We're finally onto the touristy part of this chapter which has been waiting its turn for years and I'm pretty excited for it!
Nothing like drawing an authentic post-soviet kiosk. I even ended up referencing a 2020-06-03 18:00:19 +0000 UTC View Post
Looks like Sandman's about to get a much more formidable opponent :v Maya is a new character for me to draw and with constant costume changes getting her right is gonna be tough for a while. But we'll get there!

I apologise for (once again) going off the rails with the updates, but i guess that's the downside to never having a page buffer. I'm currently working on a bunch of freelance comic stuff that should clear up this month, and once it's done we should hopefully find our footing again.

Heyyy look who's back. It's Dan and Troy and Dan's very questionable diet.
I'm hoping Troy's university hoodie is gonna be more visible in the next page, but in the meantime...some of you might recognise the reference (I didn't because I've read like 2.5 books in my lifetime, but when Io to...

Eve has 3 chapters worth of dialogue bottled up since her last appearance and you're gonna have to hear all of it. I think the political subplot is a great way to bring her back into the story and I'm really excited to see where things go from here.
This is the only time when I've admitted ...

Oh hey, guess who forgot how hard working on D&W is for me. Sorry it's so late.
I...I miss BPA....
But yay, Eve is back with a small recap of what happened in chapter 4 like 3 years ago.

Decided to polish up/colour a drawing I did on our spontaneous anniversary stream. This was a lot of fun :D

So I guess it's about time I stopped neglecting the main comic. I had all those grand plans of maybe doing as many layouts as i can and having a buffer, but i got so caught up in BPA and other stuff it just never happened, so for now we'll work like we always have: with zero safety net. At least ...

Here's your advance look at tomorrow's update, the finale of the Sandman Journal series - for now, anyway.
The idea of posting a plot summary was Mary's; she'd figured enough had happened in the comic by now that our long-time readers could do with a refresher. The original plan was t...

This page will (most likely) be running on the site in two weeks' time, but seeing as it's ready and raring to go, we figured we'd give you an early look here and now.
Back in gray antiquity when I still cranked these extras out on a regular basis, I'd planned an entire page of Shitpa...

So Io and I were talking about doing a little recap seeing how our comic is heavy on the lore and callbacks, but sparse on the update front, so it's easy to forget stuff. I was going to just keep it simple and base it on the timeline file Io set up to keep track of BPA, Dreamspace and main comic ...

WE DID IT we got to the end of this chapter! Longest one to date, but we didn't want to leave readers hanging without dropping some clues to the origins of the worm. Hopefully right-living still rings a bell for some of you, but if not, 2020-02-05 01:09:46 +0000 UTC View Post
SO THATS A THING THAT HAPPENED. At last. I was getting bored of having to draw Proper Comics with their scripts and LOGIC

Probably the wordiest page we've had in a while. To the point where I kinda ruined Shitparade's comedic reaction a bit which was meant to be blank, but there were too many words and I didn't want to wake for Io to wake up to fix stuff :v So...I squeezed it in as best i could.
But I'm also g...

Ah yes, the Maya reveal we've been waiting for since the very beginning of this chapter.
Her design was fun to figure out. I did the initial sketch some 4 years ago and alas this jpeg is all I have left of it:
Seeing how this is the first _proper_ non-comic art of D&W I've done in basically forever, I thought I'd upload a hires for you all! The lighting didn't come out as impactful as I'd hoped, but that's what I get for not practicing my painting skills.

This escalated quickly.
Here's your regular reminder that I post WIPs of all D&W stuff I work on in our #patreon channel on the Drugs & Wires Discord! If you're only interested in the patreon reward channel of our server, there's options to mute all other channels.

Dan's half-of-a-philosophy-degree got a brief mention in BPA, but I don't think we mentioned it in the main comic yet. Io gave me a few titles to stick on his shelf and I actually went digging for Moscow Universities' phisolophy programs to find some authentic books, though it didn't lead to much...

Troy's in for a treat. As with most MONTAGES I added this one myself as I figured Dan's room is in no way visitor-friendly and he's self aware enough to know that :v

As if our schedule wasn't derailed enough already, I was away for a couple of weeks and mostly just working on BPA as I've already has those pages started on my ipad. I really hope we can build some sort of a buffer starting next chapter so things can run a little more smoothly.
