I have a good excuse, though. It was Heresy's birthday, and he drew me a pic of Winter for my birthday. It would be very rude to not pass the folf back to him.
We now return to our regu...
That's page two done, and also the second image from this set I'm uploading as HD for all patrons. There were some more posters I wanted to put up in the background, but for the sake of time I cut them and stuck with just the one I had already done (so no furry version of the Star Wars or T...
2023-07-07 21:59:11 +0000 UTC View PostJune was nice, and I appreciate the opportunity you guys gave me to explore some new techniques. I'd like to practice it more, but I think I've got a process now that I could apply to pics besides the Boycurious series. So, we arrive back at the question of the last poll I ran. ...

Very nearly done with this one. I'll toss a poll up soon, and we'll figure out what we're doing for the rest of the month.

Progress shot of what's goin on with the next page of Boycurious. I'll finish this up, that'll give me two pics where I've gotten to practice this cel shading on. After that, I'll do some polling here, see what way you guys want to go in July. Finish the set? Some requests...

Calling this done (for sure this time). Added some adjustment layers to warm the colors up and add a little noise, replaced the poster with the one I painted, and strengthened up the lines for the headboard a little to help define the shape more.

A slightly different direction, something more painterly. There's several posters up in Seff and Luna's bedroom, and this is supposed to be one of them. Based on a famous Farrah Fawcett poster from the 80's, except with a cameo from Winter. You can tell it's non-canon - not beca...

This is prooooobably done but I'm not 100% sure if it is or isn't, cause I'm not sure if there is some additional effect or tweak I want to throw at it. Maybe I'll mess around with some noise layers or fake paper grain or something?
So, let's break this down. Last time you saw ...
Decided on a title for this pic series - Boycurious - and got a Sketchup file from Domo for doing the backgrounds, which should help with consistency and perspective. He's really much better at it than I am, put it together in about an afternoon. Things have been a little slow the pas...

Ended up redoing page 6 and 8 entirely. I'll do these one at a time, and start getting that shading practice/experimentation in. I'm thinking this will be set in Seff and Luna's bedroom, on their bed. Probably sideways across it, so in page 4 Ash and Seff are backlit by the wind...

Pose 6 still needs a lot of work, kinda ran out of canvas space. And the dialogue needs a few editing passes. But here's the result of a bit of tinkering, refiguring some of the poses, and moving some of them around in order.

Finished up the additions to this last night. I think I have an idea of what I'll work on next. Most likely to be the Ash/Jen/Seff pic series. I'll give it a little time tonight and see if I can arrange something I'm happy with, poke at it a little bit before fully committing. &...

"What's on the menu for this month?" Great question. My goal for this month is practice and experimentation - specifically towards a shading style & method that complements the rougher, looser, sketch work I've done in recent months. Whether I'll arrive at something I'm happ...

Home stretch on this page, but not done by the end of the month.
2023-06-01 03:13:22 +0000 UTC View PostI touched on this a bit when asking for requests for this month earlier, but we've got a backlog of sketches that haven't had a chance at full color, and months of irregularity. How would you guys like to proceed? Did you like December, where I just banged out a bunch of sketches, and...

Well, that's about the sickest I've been since I had strep throat in high school. Like I said last post, my fever broke first sunday of May, but it took a couple more weeks for me to actually get better enough to do much of anything. Been back in the saddle for about a week. Fel...
2023-05-26 02:17:49 +0000 UTC View Posttldr been sick.
Had a dentist appointment on the 1st of the month, and brought home some kind of sinus infection home that had me in bed with a fever from the 4th to the 7th. Two at-home Covid tests, both negative. Fever broke Sunday night, but I'm not back to 100%. &...
2023-05-10 02:49:20 +0000 UTC View PostOne more month of more informal requests, though with only one page left on the comic I'll see how many I can hammer out at the end of the month. The usual copypasta for requests is below, with the exception we won't be pulling old sketches in for new work this month (I'd like fresh images ...

There were two requests involving Winter and portals - really I think this month's theme ended up just being folfs - but one of them wasn't really suitable as the requester asked for their OC on the other side of the portal from Winter. But! I hope you guys are happy with this anyway....

Fixed up the actual request from that, Clovis getting glazed by her boys. Next comic page is ready for shading.

Inks pretty much done on page 7, maybe a few touch-ups to do here and there, but then it'll be on to flat colors and shading.
2023-04-13 05:05:14 +0000 UTC View Post
So I had this idea in my head of Very Princess Clovis and her male harem of wolfboys, and I thought, "Oh yes this sketch of Clovis getting glazed by the lot of them is a good excuse to sketch that." Anyway that took way too long because of course it did, so this is about as far as I got. &n...
2023-04-08 05:48:00 +0000 UTC View PostLike the requests from March, these will be really informal and taking a back seat to work on the comic - but I'm also hoping I'll finish the comic up this month, I can see the end of it from here. I'd like to keep you guys involved and have some ideas to practice on, so put in ideas below ...

One last update for the month; shading nearly done. See you guys on the weekend.

Flats are pretty much done, just about to start doing shading. I think next month's request theme will be "Thinking With Portals," if you want to get your ideas ready.

Inks are getting there. Most of what is left is a lot of fluff and refinement. Looking pretty good for getting this page done before the end of the month. With any luck, we'll have the whole thing wrapped up at the end of April. I'll still pick up more requests from you gu...

Work on next page is underway. Unlike page 5, there isn't large amounts of it that I feel like I have to throw out and redo, so it's straight into inking. I need to rework the internal slightly to make it stylistically match the ones I did a couple pages back, but that's fairly simple...

Was going to go into the next comic page after finishing that sketch of Winter, but I know Heresy has been having a rough week - so I picked up one of his requests and hammered it out. Went pretty well. Tried something a little different, overlaid the sketch layer on the rough colors ...

I may have gone too far in a few places.
