hi everyone. it's another month -- the last month of 2020.
i made an update after rescheduling, but in case you didn't see it, my surgery got moved to april due to covid-19 concerns. this means i'll be working regularly in december, mainly. can't say for sure it will happen in april; i migh...

today, i realized that i had misnumbered pages again. this is page 80, last week was page 79.
anyway, i'm not sure what i want to say about this page. it's definitely interesting to give diana this much dialogue, considering she isn't a core character. this is almost 100% a bid for "realism...

okay, here's the next page; it's late because i had a pain flare this week that mercifully only lasted a day...?? the shading will probably be done on sunday since it's comic work anyway.
something i removed from the dialogue here for the sake of brevity/pacing is carmilla mentioning that i...
2020-11-20 21:13:38 +0000 UTC View Postwhat's up everybody, oklahoma's covid-19 cases are through the roof and getting worse. thus, i rescheduled my surgery for mid-april. everything that applied to december, i don't want to say applies to mid-april in case i have to reschedule yet, but they are hoping to do it at the latest by the en...

i haven't written about developments about catharsis for a while... i didn't want to show my face again until something substantial was written: the outline. i can work out an entire comic from an outline, so this is an important step in the script process for me.
for me, an outline include...

i'm not sure how much i have to say about this page. i was on the fence about including it at all, because it pretty much cements the arc for carmilla that i'm unsure about. i wasn't sure i could come up with something else for her in such a short amount of time when my mind is more focused on th...

hi everyone, this is a late one because my sleep schedule is extremely messed up right now and i don't want to attempt to fix it lest it spiral out of control again right before surgery. i'll just be working on the next page of soft-pedaled.
and so the scene is over. let's see what i want to say about it...
let me mention some small dialogue edits first:
the page was initially written to end with kim asking sugar why she doesn't come to check-in, either, and sugar saying, "tired. too tired."
i changed this because i wante...
EDIT: hi everybody, i'm starting to answer questions now. i woke up about 4 hours ago, so, it is what it is.
hello again, everyone. i finished up answering the questions for october's q&a, so now i'm going to post this one.
i'm going to test the waters a bit and try a more meta quest...
there will be no december stream poll, so whatever option wins for this month will transfer over to any streams i do on sunday during december, if i do any.

hi again, everyone. it's a new month, so it's time for an update.
let's start with the biggest thing: i'm having surgery at the beginning of december and it means i don't know when i'll be able to work again. i should be fine by the end of the month, but you can safely assume at least the f...

today i'll be developing yale and ash a little bit.

boy, this page looks WEIRD without the shading.
so i'll talk a little about what kim's saying here. the next page is the last of this scene, so there isn't much more to develop.
you may have noticed in the scene where kim was moved wards and switched check-in groups, that tabitha is the ...
this stream will be about keshet, and maybe be a little shorter than usual because i did not really have a plan for today.

2020-10-12 04:13:13 +0000 UTC View Posthi everyone. i just remembered i need to do the q&a for this month. this month's theme will be favorites and least favorites.
ask me a thing and a character (or multiple characters) and i will tell you their favorite and least favorite of that thing to the best of my abili...
alright, next page... a little bit late, because i had another pain flare.
i feel like i should have so much about this page, and i really don't! a lot of the dialogue, i feel, speaks for itself!
i already kind of explained during the stream that a lot of tabitha's viewpoint here is i...

hi everybody. it's a new month, so a new update.
let's start with the big thing: i was so busy in the last few days of the month working on this next page to get it out in time that i completely forgot about the Q+A. 🤦🏻
i'm going to answer them on sunday instead, as i have commissi...
EDIT: shading is done now.
yes, i am back, and i managed to sketch out, line, and color this page within the last two days, as it was the only way to get back to a normal schedule. some of the models are wonky, but i left them alone if they were... visually interesting.
one of the panels...
something i drew mostly because i try to draw co-consciousness or more specifically entering or exiting it in different ways, and this experience hit me like a truck in terms of how i could draw dupe exploding out of the mouth with recall. sometimes... things ARE just for fun.

time for another doodle dump.
a lot of these ones are meme redraws and concept art for hurts (probably a name i'll be using to differentiate the roach fursona from myself when necessary).
i've had sort of some artistic ennui lately as i've been going through an art low (where you can ...

EDIT: shading done.
there's a lot going on in a short amount of time here... lupe's personality gets more establishment, and it's also established that she and carmilla (and the staff member here) can speak spanish, which is introduced as a vector to mirror kim's confusion and lack of compr...
2020-09-11 01:03:11 +0000 UTC View Posthey, guess who just remembered the question and answer sessions are a thing!
this month's theme will be questions about backstory regarding characters. i'll leave it open and say it can be about any character, not just main characters/protagonists. i'll be answering questio...

for the night lighting of this scene, i tried a new method of sketching. overall, i think it was worse to sketch it out as nighttime lighting as opposed to trying to color correct for contrast in the shading and coloring phase. it might still be useful for, say, more limited palette scenes in the...

hi everyone. it's wild how it's september already.
first, i'll just repeat what the image says: the new year on the hebrew calendar and the ten days of repentance happen this month, with the last day, yom kippur, being the most intense. you have to not bathe or eat or drink anything for a d...

when i don't completely remember something myself, but a different part of my brain does, i have a tendency to assume i'm lying to myself or making it up. it's been a really hard habit to break, and i'm not sure why. a lot of the time it's about pretty domestic or mundane facts or recall like thi...
