MI 542 (early access page)

FINALLY, SOME VISUAL METAPHORS AROUND HERE am I right

In other news: it is fun to paint dramatic lava lakes

MI 541 (early access page)

I could write something pithy here, but mostly my thoughts while making this page were "bitch get out of that waterfall"

Okay obligatory pithy comment: Mike is being rational for the first time in the entire comic!! Taking care of yourself i...

Spinel

I don't draw fanart! I don't draw fanart!!  i continue to insist as i slowly shrink and transform into a corn cob 

MI 540 (early access page)

He's the best!!

MI 539 (early access page)

Last early access page for now, next pages will go up when the main site updates (this week, that is weds and fri, then tues-thurs until the final scenes). 

Bex's role in the comic has been, from the beginning "the imperfect mother." It...

MI538 (early access page)

Maybe this is kind of a dick thing to say but I don't really like stories about hope, where hope saves the day. Sort of feels to me like one is relying on something unlikely happening, a confluence of events that ideally works out in your future. ...

MI537 (early access page)

This scene was tough! I wanted Mike to openly admit that the only reason he didn't kill himself is because Bex fortuitously needed a favor. I think people who have been there understand the mix of gratitude and shame and feeling of failing at one ...

Feels good to be back~

I've been kinda majorly absent from Patreon because finishing Mare has been such a huge stress and weight on my back, I haven't been able to work on anything else without feeling tremendous guilt and it really shows in my lack of posts here... HOW...

Court Magician

Eh, while I'm here, a fanartish sketch I did for a short story I read recently. Haven't painted like this (on one layer, like a barbarian) for ye...

Boy howdy

Been super busy, all of my creativity and motivation that was completely absent for the last 12 months came back at once and I'm back to hyperfocus mode. I have a TON of work I owe because I sucked so hard for so long, so I'm slowly getting throug...

Pseudomedusa 1

While moving the last week, had a vague idea of a series of pseudomedusas whose hair doesn't quite quality for full medusa status. This one is sporting a head of Bipe...

The Elevator

Another find while packing up, an horror short I thumbed on a stupidly-shaped piece of cardstock. I have like 5-6 of these small horror comics floating around in various scrappy forms, maybe I should actually like... finish one... 

Failed book prototype

I'm making a huge move and packing up my entire life at the moment, and found this book... This is a rare one. To be honest I completely forgot it existed.

Marcille

Been reading Dungeon Meshi and really enjoying it! Marcille is my favorite for having the best reactions, but all the characters are really likeable. I took a long break from reading non-webcomics so it's nice to get back into it.

And a quic...
