Chapter 7.06

The storm is here!

Here I was trying to get the sort of thin light that you see when it starts to storm during the daytime. I always think that lighting is kind of fun, even if it is eerie.

Chapter 7.11

Rosemary might be good at studying, and is pretty good at magic, but she's horrible at designing fine porcelain. Just absolute shit job with those paints, Rosemary.

Chapter 7.05

I think Toivo and Jessica are actually each other's favorite coworkers, tbh, but what do I know?

Chapter 7.10

Finally, we get some names to the symbols stated in the comic.

What's funny to me is I've had most of these symbols on a little cheat sheet for a while now, ready to go whenever I need them, but I think the only one that I've used of these four is 'binding' in chapter 2.

I guess the t...

Chapter 7.09

Serule's fine, probably! They're looking very healthy, maybe!

[nsfw] step on it

It should come as no surprise that he’s extremely into this

all characters portrayed are over 18 years of age

Chapter 7.04

These pages I've been trying out some additional things with the ink splatters to try and use them in a way that's adding to the comic. So ultimately I'll probably be trying to get those strong blacks put in there at some point, which is what I was playing with on some of the panel backgrounds. 2022-09-29 17:00:07 +0000 UTC View Post

[PSD files] Chapter 6.49-6.53

This batch of PSD files lead right to the end of chapter 6. The scene before in the cave has hard shadows and dramatic lighting, but I wanted to try and carry that through the rest of the chapter, just because I really enjoy it. So I tried pulling off some afternoon 'golden hour' light.

Chapter 7.08

I'm loving Vivianne on this page, to be quite honest.

In more behind the scenes commentary, I'm still experimenting with ink splatters. I think they're fun to do and I like the texture they give, but since I didn't use it throughout the entire comic I think it's throwing some people off. Bu...

Chapter 7.03

Toivo is providing slut looks in this page, and he will continue to do so through the entire chapter. I hope you appreciate it.

Robert apparently thought that he and Toivo were friends. They were not.

Chapter 7.07

Rosemary is SO grown up and she doesn't NEED anyone to watch over her!

Anyway Toivo has the right idea but maybe the wrong execution. What's Robert even going to do? Be bait?

Keeping with the green theme this page. Weather is still bad outside.

You know right before it rains when it gets really green out? Yeah, that's what's happening here.

Patron Tier Updates

Hi folks!

This announcement pertains mostly to the $7 tier members, but affects the $5 tier as well. I’ve taken a look at what I’ve been capable of for the last few months and have to come to the conclusion that right now the $7 Professor of Magic tier isn’t offering current patrons a...

Chapter 6 Interlude - Part 3

Part 3 of 3 of the Nikki and Aidan comic.

As a reminder from the last one, these are meant to be vertical scroll, but have been cut up a little more for better viewing on patreon.

And that's the end of that short intermission! Hope you enjoyed.

[nsfw] sketchbook tiddies

What can I say? Toivo's a big fan of boobs.

Now that a little more is revealed about Vivianne in the comic I can finally share more about her, or at least show off the goods.

Chapter 7.02

The college lobby has had a significant glow up in 7 chapters.

I don't have much to say here, I'm just trying to get the color story right in these pages.

Chapter 7.01

Chapter 7 begins now! I've got a couple more pages getting ready to be colored, and I've made some headway on the later stuff, so I'll be posting a lot of comic page content soon.

I had to really push some of these colors to make it appear properly green, actually. It can get so eerie right...

[PSD files] Chapter 6.43-48

Since I haven't uploaded PSD files in a hot second, I decided to upload a big batch of them. I'll set up a schedule for these so I don't neglect to upload them again, since that's just something I that falls through the cracks. 

Up until the end of this scene there's a lot of reliance ...

Chapter 6 Interlude - Part 1

One thing that was mentioned in a few comments was wanting to see the conversation "later" between Nikki and Aidan, so I decided to actually write that out. And, y'know, it might actually answer a few questions for some readers. :)

I decided to draw this as a vertical scroll comic to see if...
