Phat Loot

Indirect Kiss

Gross.

The glass effect was challenging, but came out OK, especially at higher size/resolution.

Four panels horizontal is tricky to size. I don't want to make it too wide, but the standard size I use is too small. Other option is to have 4x1 (vertical format), or a 2x2, but the story flow has to be planned around it.

Micro Expressions (Halloween)

Almost Halloween- beware of terrible puns. I think everyone has met "that guy" in some form or another.  Tried something unconventional with the flow, I hope it reads correctly.

Birthday Wishes

If your birthday wishes haven't been coming true, now you know why. And the first name/face that came to mind is probably actually the one who's been wish-sniping you. Maybe a system is needed where someone uses their wish to protect yours from 'Counter-Wishes' for the year, then you return the favor next year.

Leap of Faith

Something I've thought about in "leap of faith" scenarios. A trial can be designed so that faith is a necessary but not sufficient condition. Sounds like something a logic prof would do to teach people a lesson, or a developer of Dark Souls just for fun.

Double Take

Sasquatch Have Feelings Too

How rude. No wonder they don't want to be seen.
Being this is a blog, I probably I should write something occasionally:
Some of the big challenges faced in starting to do these comics, in addition to the never ending task of learning to draw, include writing, planning and managing time. This particular one has been especially tough all around. I actually shelved it for a while then overhauled it months later. Oh well, done is done, moving on!

Still experimenting with style and rendering. I think I prefer a looser style like in True Gentleman.
 There is a temptation to make everything detailed and clean, but it can sometimes kill the spontaneity and action.

Second, I am debating using fonts/type face as opposed to hand lettering. Handwriting is time consuming and admittedly is not my forte. However, it does have a nice look to it (sometimes...when it's actually even). The other thing is introducing a uniform, clean type sometimes clashes with the drawing style. So, that is something to consider.

True Gentleman

Solomon's Wisdom

Have there been any other problems which threatening to saw a baby in half solved?

Different Levels of Annoying

Business is Tough

  

Oh the crazy transactions and outcomes that have been wagered on a wrestling match.

Atlas "Working"

Haunting Melody

Got tired of the dreaded "1 line background", so tried something different. Also tried to add a bit more texture and rendering to avoid being too flat. There's a good reason I don't put too much detail and scenery. Still fun to try it out once in a while though- gotta learn sometime.

So, that last panel was originally quite different. I was going to use a "x years ago" flash back. Without much thought, I arbitrarily thought 10 years, then quickly mentally realized He-man era was much older. I doubled it to 20 and thought, "nah, that's way too much." But thinking about it,  it wasn't at all. Might be a couple years short too, give or take rerun lifespan.

Holy... the late 80s-90's was already ~20+ years ago. How did that happen.. <old man moment>. Growing up, 20+ year ago flash backs was for like the '60s and '70s.  Soon it will refer to the Pokemon era. 

Oh look it's almost New Year.

Magical Bag

That Could Be Offensive

We like to think of all the grand societal and moral impacts of sentient machines, but most likely we'll also be dealing with dumb trivial stuff. Enjoy the robot dance while you can, goddam racists!


Random Colors! Just wanted to try it out for once- not permanent. Looks OK, I think, but dont really know what I'm doing. That orange is probably a mistake haha.

Quick Thinking

Dictionary Defines...

Fun one to draw! Partway through, I started wondering whether some regions would be familiar with the "Webster's dictionary defines" speech device. It's used a lot in cheesy elementary/highschool speeches here :) .

Anatomy of a Line

Sort of a pet peeve >.> Played around with some path tool, perspective and inking effects. Think it turned out OK.

Curiosity

Some things we're better off not immediately knowing about people... or ever! Wonder 
what neat things you don't know about!

Newer stuff are being done at higher resolutions, so hopefully it wont be as blocky. Although it did give a retro/raw feel-- still need to experiment with that. Playing around with the displayed image size too. Feedback appreciated.


Stay tuned!

Fat Error

 Finally got this started! I am hoping to update at minimum once a week, aiming for 2-3 eventually. Super slow with the drawing at the moment, should get better with more experience.. hopefully, haha.

We'll see, we'll see.
