"Chernobýl" 30-31

It's kinda weird how we don't actually see The Meed in this part of the action, although he is very active in it. He's not "properly" present even in the next strip, and intentionally so... But what do you think, guys?

I'm a mangaka now, mom!

Just kidding!

But seriously, I kinda like the look of it, for a smaller singular drawing. (Also, remember this one?)

Maybe one day this cheap trick ...

"Chernobýl" 27-28-29

Aaaaand we're back! 

So yeah, some re-figuring happened in the past couple of weeks,  and strip 27 is now moved from the end of page 10 to opening of this page (11). I won't show you the additional panels now - they are not critical for s...

Unannounced book remains unannounced

Huh? What's that? Well, my friends, these are just little design elements we'll probably put on my Western comic's single issues back covers! All 6 of the issues!

A bit of sad news for my $3+ patrons -  no CHERNOBYL strips this week, sorry :( Really, really need to take a break to fix a couple of things before pushing book...

Dmitry's Nihilism

Phew! 

So, I'm back from vacation (and what a blast it was!), and I couldn't get a better return gift than a caravan of freshly scanned pages by Dmitry Nesterak from his mysterious Slavic Nihilism #2 story! He only has 3 pages...

In the cast of just 3 main (and male) characters and with more "cartoony" style to explore, our third guy - mis...

"Chernobýl" 22-23

I don't know how about you, but I'm loving everything about first strip here: this is the moment I was teasing in my twitter so many times as "some kinky furry ...

Second batch of Patreon commissions + scans

Aaaaaand we're done with the second batch of commissions! Now everything from February/March is done, I'm leaving on a long vacation in a couple of days, and the next wave of commissions will be done sometime in June.

Thank you all for your support...

Another 2018 book (hopefully!)

Getting back to a very beloved book, one part of which was drawn 3+ years ago, and another part  - sometime in 2016. What is weird about it is that I want ...

First batch of Patreon commissions

I'm sorry if you're a first wave $20 patron and yet you can't find your commission in this video - I should finish the rest of them once I get back from a convention! Drawing those commissions out of order and obligatory shooting them on video...

"Chernobýl" 18-19

Heyooo, my friends! 

Some scheduling updates for your boi Artyom: this Friday I'm flying to Krasnoyarsk to visit Siberian Comic Con and do my old was...

"Chernobýl" 17

This strip cost me a lot of struggle - our story becomes more and more wordy (for a little while) and with that my lack of proper planning is more and more distressing.

(Yep! This is how we do it. Longer version for this video is here)

This strip introduces a very flamboyant character... sorta!

CHARRED KRAKEN one-shot

And for this month's Sequentialist subscription we have my old one-shot called CHARRED KRAKEN back from 2013/2014. Written by Chris Irvin (who put out some nice novels since then!), drawn by me (and it's one...

"Chernobýl" 14 and our three-panel-structure

Aw hell, guys, I really don't know: of course I'd love to keep that "ninegrid" thing going on for some time, but in no way it should be an end in itself.
