Getting way simpler with the crowd now they're less of a focus :P

Sketches- September 2019

Thanks for the support, as always!

Next months might be a little different, because I want to take part in inktober. I'm not sure how many I'll manage, but for each inktober the $1 tier will get the initial sketch, and the $3 tier will get some process images. I think I'll compile the $1 s...

Rock Tier Sketches- September 2019

Thanks for all your support!! <3

Charity Case Ch4:Pg12 Process & hi-res

You can see I rethought the 3 separate colour schemes after I did the rough colours, and ended up mixing the blues and pinks throughout, since it felt too disjointed! 

Charity Case Ch4:Pg12

Here we go :>

Charity Case Ch4:Pg11 Process & hi-res

I never thought I'd need to look up youtube videos on how to pull a pint, but here I am :P. (I couldn't find any reference of behind the bar!)
I put a tiny sequence of Rosemary and Terri in there, because I'm terribly self indulgent ;).
Also, you can see I copied the placement and angles of...

Charity Case Ch4:Pg11

I promise the next page has actual words ;P

Charity Case Ch4:Pg10 Process & hi-res

Definitely going to be going for a more abstracted crowd after this next page ;;

I have three colour schemes for this scene so far- one with a pink filter, one with a blue filter, and one with a peachier tone, hopefully I can pull it off! I was originally just going to do it all pink, but I...

Charity Case Ch4:Pg10

I'm excited to be back in crazy colour town :3

Charity Case Ch4:Pg9 Process & hi-res

I weighed up my options and decided learning to draw bikes for two panels wasn't worth the pain ;)

Also going a bit Jojo's bizarre adventure with the colours here, I love a wacky sky!

Charity Case Ch4:Pg9

Gotta get in a dose of anime.

Rose tinted p5 process

trying out the grainy brush in black and white too! I'm very fond of it :P. Still super undecided on my black and white style, I need to find time to do more experiments!

Rose tinted p5

sneaky!

September Rock Tier Sketch Poll

This months theme is self-love, so choose who you'd prefer to see having some alone time :3c.


(...solo masturbation for folks in the back )

As always, feel free to drop suggestions for what you want to see and I'll keep them in mind! You guys are my highest and largest tier, and...

Rosemary/Terri process 2

I tried to take a few more shots of the second pic, I hope it sheds a little more light onto my process! I feel like the step between base colours and final is so big sometimes! I basically reduce the opacity of the sketch and draw over the lines I want to keep, before getting rid of the sketch. ...

Early access painting- Rosemary/Terri pt2+3

I couldn't just leave it there! Everything has to have a narrative, I'm weak! These are promo pics to be released during the smut peddler kickstarter campaign (which launches tomorrow aah)

Process up for $3+ shortly <3

Charity Case Ch4:Pg8 Process & hi-res

Finally finding my footing with goofy expressions! I felt like the more realistic style didn't leave as much room for exaggeration like this. Though I do miss it, and I hope I can find a middle ground when my wrist doesn't need so many breaks! I'm especially sad about the corners I have to cut wi...

Charity Case Ch4:Pg8

Julien screws up again! What a surprise.

Charity Case Ch4:Pg7 Process & hi-res

I'm living for all these sparkles tbh.

uh oh

September Sketch Poll

This months Nintendo Direct got me excited :3c

I'm not sure how many characters I can do, but I'll definitely get one or more of the trio in!

(gonna need a little longer to think of rock tier ideas!)

Rosemary/Terri process

I took a really easy route with the colours here, and took the palette from the comic, using colour adjustments to make it more purple!
i'm also trying to use the flatter style from charity case on a more detailed scale, I tried to keep the palette pretty restricted, and limited blending a lo...

Early access painting

I'm saving this for the silver anthology kickstarter release, so I figured I'd give it to you guys earlier!

The sketch will be in the monthly pdf, and the process will be up shortly for the indie tier <3.

Charity Case Ch4:Pg6 Process & hi-res

I had to be careful about where I put the speech bubbles on this one! Because I made the panels diagonal, the eye naturally wants to go to the highest panel, and read backwards, so I tried to counteract it with speech bubbles to lead the eye to the next panel. I hope it worked! Sometimes my wacky...

Charity Case Ch4:Pg6

We hit 90 patrons a few days ago, which is insane! Thanks for all the support, and hello to new faces!

Charity Case Ch4:Pg5 Process & hi-res

Included the rough sketch here! I start by blobbing the shapes and basic expressions down, basically getting a base to do a proper sketch onto! I erase and re-draw sections as I go to make it clearer. 

You can also see that I sometimes disregard background detail/colour when I think it...

Charity Case Ch4:Pg5

Will I ever get tired of drawing Julien eating? Nay!

Charity Case Ch4:Pg4 Process & hi-res

As happy as I am with the new style, it did feel quite empty, so I'm experimenting with some grainy textures to give it more energy!

This is also seriously inspired by manga, I love how the characters have like...shorthand forms, and then detailed pretty forms (especially when it's really e...
