Untitled Goose Game

 5yo is an absolute NATURAL at being an annoying goose. 😄 

Making of "Check for Pods"

J came up with this one *just* a bit too late for last Halloween, so we've been keeping it in the chamber for a year.

This one all came together quite quickly, it was the bonus panel that really ate up the time! 

Making of "Fall Shopping"

Suddenly realized I haven't been keeping up with these Making Of's!  I cut the cord with Adobe recently and switched to Clip Studio on my PC and it's been taking some time to figure out how to do everything without Creative Cloud.  I already use (and LOVE!) Clip Studio Paint on my iPad,...

COMIC: No Take Backs (remastered)

I always said I'd do a book at 100 comics.  Well, I'm there, but so many of them are "locked" in the old art-style.  I want a consistent look for the book, so I have no choice but to step up the rate of remasters.  They'll be plenty of new comics coming too, I'm just going to have ...

Comictober Day 27: Glare

Dad Jokes

J has taken to spicing up his Dad jokes with an air horn noise on his phone and taking a victory lap around the room.  Send help. 

NEW Perk!

I was SUPER nervous about drawing live at a con, but I know how much commissions mean to people, so I want to keep practicing and get more confident.

That got me thinking, what better way to practice AND reward my wonderful patrons than to give you all a chance to win one!

Every month...

You win some, you lose some...?

Skeleton Hands

 2yo has bonded with a pair of skeleton hand Halloween decorations. He takes them everywhere with him, even to bed! 😆

What weird things have your kids (or you!) bonded with?

COMIC: Fall Shopping

OMG this one took FOREVER to draw!!! 

Comictober Day 7: Fall

Banner Arrived!!

My new banner arrived!!  My first con seems so "real" now!!

Merch Preview: Keychains!

My keychains arrived!!  I haven't actually seen them in person yet, but my pal Sprinkle Bat was kind enough to take these photos for me!  

They're both glittery and the Fran one actually double sided, ...

Zombie Plague!

After posting my new zombie avatar earlier today, I got this this comment:

What a fantastic idea!!!  I bounced it around some webcomic friends and we decided that I'd use an IG story to "bite"...

COMIC: Butt Brain

I asked my 5yo if he had any ideas for a zombie themed comic for Day 2 of Comictober.  THIS was his response! 

Making of "I Love You"

This one was something J said.  Our 5yo has never been much of a cuddly kid, although to be fair to him, he's getting a bit more so these days, or maybe he's just figured out it's a better means to an end...?

J did Vincent's face in the last panel, which I feel really makes this one. 2019-10-01 19:52:16 +0000 UTC View Post

Halloween Avatar

Added a new zombie avatar for Oct 1st!  

It was one of those rare occasions where you have an idea, draw it quickly and it turns out way better than you envisioned!  Love it when that happens! :)

COMIC: I Love You

We're baaaaaack!!  Looking forward to this month -LOTS planned!  

Here's #Comictober2019 Day 1: Candy

Comictober

I was invited to join this group of comic folks in making Comictober!  

The idea is based on the popular Inktober, where you have a drawing prompt for each day of October.  With Inktober the challenge i...

Banner Preview

I'm afraid there probably won't be a comic this week.  I have my parents visiting from the UK and I'm getting ready for my 1st ever comic con in Oct (details).  I did want to share some of the things I've been w...

Making of "Making Things Right"

This one was a pretty much word for word what happened, expect I wasn't clearing the table, I think I was maybe getting 2yo ready for bed(?)  I can't remember what 5yo had done, or said, to upset me, but I heard J coaching him downstairs on how to make it up to me.  He came trotting ups...

Story from hubby in the pictures! :)

Making of "Of Course He Did."

This one started with something my 5yo's teacher said.  I was totally setting myself up to apologize and then she followed up with the "punchline" and we both shared a chuckle.  Thank goodness for teachers with a sense of humor!  :)

I started setting it up the same way for th...

COMIC: Of Course He Did.

My kid's teachers are the best!

 What inappropriate things has your kid done that's made you laugh? 

Ago Comics Contest

Got something a little bit different for you today!  

This is my piece for Ago Comics #drawthisinyourstyle challenge.  I don’t normally do these, but I had this idea and -well, how could I not?! 😆

If you don’t know the comic then I encourage you to go follow 2019-09-10 01:56:22 +0000 UTC View Post

Video: Coloring of "History Times"

I've been having technical issues trying to compress a whole comic into a process video, so I thought try my luck just capturing a bit.  

Here we have the bulk of the coloring for "History Times".  This is about an hours worth of work compressed into a 1 minute vid.  Sorry th...

Making of "History Times"

The kernel for this joke came about when we were raking our brains for ideas for the potato collab on Instagram. The idea was that Vincent would pick up the potato and ask Fran if that was...
