Well gang, this month is off to be kinda clumsy beginning--been real stupid busy this week so far, which I'm not super excited about, but here's a couple recent sketch pages! β₯
I hope you're all safe and having a good start to your March.

Here we are again, gang!
Thank you for your patience in waiting for me to get these up on dropbox for you. We've got JPGs, we've got PSDs, we've got CSPs and MP4s! As well as the current clean/rough pages of the Gibson Girl story.
Thank you for following along with my rambling p...

I've been wanting to draw this page since very early on in the process. I know I need to make more room for speech bubbles probably but I just fell in love with the erotic potential of split drawers β₯
There's still some very unfinished lines in places but I'm going to leave a lot of that ...

Thank you all for your patience in waiting for this report. I had to get through some work this week that really took it out of me and I'm starting to breath again now that it's Friday. I'll have some art updates for you later today as well! :) On to the report!
First off, Gibson Gi...

These are sketches I didn't know I was hoarding until now.
I'm feelin' green this month. I practiced a lot of a certain kind of academic figure drawing when I was back in school and got used to drawing with charcoal and white conte on paper that I toned with gouache. Back then I always used...

I don't really want to totally stop doing fanart while I work on the comic because it's refreshing, but I definitely realized that in a way the Gibson style is a hard departure from what I've been doing for the past couple of months and might be jarring to people following me on twitter that aren...

Happy Saturday everyone! Just a brief update here so I can share more WIP inks!
I still feel like I'm finicking with the words still but I'm going to have to commit to adding them in eventually, bear with. :) I'm pretty darn sure that the line here at the bottom of the page or at the beginn...

Happy Wednesday!
This feels like a small triumph, since I've been struggling to make progress on this. I think a lot of it will still get tweaked and I'm missing dialog bubbles all over the place--hope that I don't have to crush the art to make it fit, but I wanted to share some curre...

Hey everybody, happy Sunday! I just wanted to share a few little sketches, including a Poppy (kinda miss drawing her) I did this weekend!
Nothing too much to report about all this, just continuing as usual. I'm shooting for a Gibson comic update in the late/mid week with some lined but unha...

Well gang, this was one of those weeks where nothing went quite right. A lot of delays and last minute hiccups on my SFW stuff and then a bunch of technical issues(never install a new drivers in the middle of a project) meant basically no progress on the comic, which is frustrating, all I managed...

Happy Saturday, everyone!
I did not have very much time to work on the comic this week, I'm sorry to say. Other freelance demands overwhelmed me and they'll probably continue until about midway through this week. I made about halfway through the first page but it's not quite looking how I h...

Hello friends! Here's some stuff from the ol sketchbook so to speak, as well as some timelapses in the attachments from this pink piece and the recent Libby drawing I shared with the somewhat sheer, pleated skirt.
Hope you're having a lovely week!

I know some of you might be a little disappointed that you're going to have to wait until after the Gibson girls for the librarian comic, or for Frazetta stuff, but I'm also impatient, so I'm just going to keep sketching different stuff as a break from the work on the Gibson comic!

I think these are the ladies I settled on. Eileen O'Malley, tall, freckled and eager, a little bit more
Prudence Taylor, the tailor (I'm kinda into these cheeky names right now, I guess), a little more put together, mature, and the absolute object of Eileen's affection.

Most of you probably know the drill at this point but here they are. Sloppy as ever. I want to finalize some character designs before I fully jump in, but I'd like to flout some Gibson Girl convention and have one of them be a redhead (maybe even strawberry blondish?).
Even though...

This is going to be a little bit of an out of the blue update, but remember how last March I said I wanted to sell physical prints so I could get a new printer to make nicer print comics at home? Well I finally sold enough physical comics to pay for it :)

Hello friends, hope you all had a lovely week. Here's some pages from the ol' digital sketchbook.
I'm not exactly sure what they're all about, just pursuing different thoughts, playing with brushes and seeing what comes out of it. I know the GG comic is going to be more mark making heavy, &...

At long last. I've got these. A set of 18, which is a little longer than I was hoping so I think I might yet rework the first 4 and try to condense them down to at least 2.
I promise I'll have more to show for this soon--the real tedious hard part is over I think.
It might not l...

Well I don't know exactly how this happened but I've been making a lot of things this month. I swear, ever since playing around with line stabilization I'm just kinda enamored with all the lines that can come out of these programs I'm using. π

Thank you all for voting in the comic poll! I'm excited to get started on this comic because I've been wanting to do it for a while. The other ideas I do want to try afterward but this is going to be a lot of fun, AND it fits my restriction of being black and white or at least mostly so.

So for the longest time I'd avoided using stabilization on my lines because I hated Photoshop's smoothing, little did I know that it was totally fine in other software. It's amazing how long you can do a thing and just totally write off other options.
Anyways, now I'm obsessed with line smo...

I've been having a little trouble getting the next comic going, I know I'm probably over thinking things, but part of the process has been revisiting some old characters, like Holly, one of the hikers that went unused!

Still doodling this character. In the early stages of developing a comic for her, I think!

I was thinking more about fantasy characters after having done that Frazetta fanart. The one on the right might just be a 70s take on medieval peasant Zelda, but I'm still very jazzed about her hair. π
