Chapter:

-EDIT- Comic had a little downtime due to exceeding my bandwidth allotment. Fixed now, sorry for that! I apologize to those of you who check the comic right at the crack of midnight CST, had a late start on finishing[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…

I was tempted to throw in a Girl Genius reference, what with the talking mad scientist castle and all, but it felt a bit forced.

Chapter:

Paul is one heckuva school bus. – – – – – You all know how much I love sharing fan art submissions, yes? Get ready for three more! 😀 Firstly, Jepix sent this cute drawing that re-imagines Selkie and Todd[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…

I've had this dream-sequence chapter opening running through my head for MONTHS. I am so glad to finally get to it.

Chapter:

Welcome to Chapter 3. One day I may figure out titles for these arcs. XD I also have another Fan Art update. ChellRaeSelkie sent me more MMO recreations of Selkie: Thank you ChellRae!

Paul is kind of a big scaley Falcor (from the Neverending Story).

Chapter:

Oh man, yesterday was a blast! Saw U2 perform live. They put on an amazing show! – – – – – This is both the first official introduction of Todd’s siblings, and the last of the side comics! See you[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…

My google searches are a bit conflicting on whether the building in panel 1 is part of General Mitchell International, or the Quadracci Pavilion of the Milwaukee Art Museum. I can only hope I gambled correctly.

Chapter:

And here is the first of the two reader-requested “where are they now” shorts. Hi, Jessie! For those that don’t remember Jessie, she was the shoe clerk that appeared here.

I didn't realize until I was halfway through shading that my panel compositions don't actually SHOW that Alexis is propping her foot on the coffee table. Woops.

Chapter:

This is the end of the Return to the Orphanage mini-arc. Hope you all had fun getting re-acquainted with Selkie’s various friends, enemies, and in-betweens. There are two more strips left before we start the next long Chapter story though;[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…

I can't read Keisha's last line of dialog without laughing.

Chapter:

My rule of thumb for Amanda is that she is a jerk and a bully, but she’s also an eight year old kid. When you’re that young, you feel things a lot more intensely than you do as a grown[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…

Writing Amanda (even sad-face Amanda) makes me think back to my own childhood bullies. My curiosity got the better of me and I looked up my middle school bully on Facebook while drawing this strip. Apparently the kid who shoved me around so much I had to go to counseling is now a medic in the U.S. Army.

Chapter:

Happy Independence Day to my fellow Americans, and happy Selkie Update Day to everyone else. 😀 If you missed it, I had a holiday-themed sketch posted over the weekend. It involves dangerous acts of derring-do! I also have a huge[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…

I had to figure out a few basics of the orphanage floor plan for these backgrounds. It's four stories tall and shaped a bit like a lowercase g.

Chapter:

Been awhile since I did a Sketch Saturday bonus update. Happy Independance Day to my fellow Americans, and happy weekend to everyone else. 😀 I drew this bonus sketch at work, and on my second break I did a different[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…

I wanted to draw Todd doing something more interesting than standing and watching Selkie, so... juggling sparklers! :D I have decided this is canon. Todd can juggle.

Chapter:

I am now back in town from my trip to Florida. We visited my brother’s future in-laws (they’re very nice people who treated us like family the entire time, stuffed us to the gills with food, and gave us mangos[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…

Thought I'd try a two-part shading style on the background this time around. See how it works.
