Andi’s side of things. – – – – Patreon campaigns off to a good start, folks! Thanks to everyone who’s pledged. I’ve got a sketch up on the activity feed and I’m getting set up for a video stream later[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
The day I drew this strip was also the final day of Dawngate's servers being available for play. I felt like doing something small to say goodbye to the game, and decided that since my intent for the backgrounds of the flashback was to look jumbled and confused, I'd also incorporate "splashes of color" in honor of one of my favorite Dawngate characters, Zeri. Rest in Peace, Miss ahb Kareiya.
(Beta WIP) Patch notes for 2-3-2015: In an effort to incentive risk-reward and player interaction, we’ve made some balance changes to Flashbacks for this upcoming patch. Cartoony Illustration Speech bubbles have been dominating competitive play a bit too highly, so[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
I need to practice drawing biscotti. This is a thing I've learned about myself.
And with the troubles at school behind us, I’m moving back to the Andi subplot a little bit. It’s been awhile, so here’s some refresher links: The last time we saw Andi, scheduling a meeting with Lillian. The only time[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
Today's edition of the Secret Commentary is empty, because Dave failed to come up with something for it.
Andi’s been busy, albiet mostly off-camera. I got to thinking, with assistance from reader feedback, that since I am more and more frequently posting “beta” versions of the strips for short periods before finalizing them, and at times the reader[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
Andi's tattoo list now includes hearts and clovers. I think maybe horseshoes or blue moons should be next. And to get that Gilgamesh tattoo completed.
Andi’s last appearance was another short check-in a bit over a year ago in real-time. She’s been sitting on the backburner over the last year, sadly.
If anyone asks Andi whether the irreparable damage to those pumps as a result of being wrenched into drywall is representative of some aspect of the work as a whole, I hope to god she has a good answer for that because I do not. And yet, I would totally ask that question. XD
First comic of winter break! I don’t have grades yet, but I feel pretty confident about this semester. Thanks again for your understanding, everyone, when I had to shelve the comic for a bit the last couple weeks. I’ll probably[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
My original exit line for Andi was going to be "You know Selkie's eventually leave for the ocean, right?" The whole scene was originally a lot angrier and more bitter on both sides, but after actually sitting down to work on it, it became more... "world crashing around you" -y, and I feel that original line is a bit too snipe-y for what Andi's feeling right now.
I am so sorry about the rushed and sloppy and generally disgusting comic today gang. I suffered a really big setback this weekend. My desktop computer got a really big virus infection. Pop-up ads kept blaring out every few minutes,[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
I thought I would try drawing the background regularly since I was pressed for time. It's sloppy and rushed and I freaking hate it. >_<
I am sorry about the half-comic again gang. Afraid I just had a lot going on with schoolwork and other miscellanea this weekend. On the subject of my schoolwork, I am afraid I must make a sad announcement. I have[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
If Todd's face rash seemed MIA in the last strip, I sort of flubbed my continuity check on that one. Thanks to Luna_et_Noctis for catching my error, it has since been fixed.
So, let me say first thing, what you are seeing right now is NOT another of my style-change experiments. I assume that’s the first thing people will think upon seeing this. XD Basically, I lost a lot of my comicing[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
Writing the dialogue for this fight/break-up/argument has been a little difficult for me. Partly because it is derived from real-world experiences, partly because I keep wanting to pepper the dialogue with hard swears and having to go back and re-evaluate it. If I was writing Todd and Andi's dialogue the way I tend to talk in real life when upset, there'd be a LOT of little black bars on the speech bubbles.
If I (mentally) scribbled my timeline notes right, Andi started calling a little less than a week before the adoption day, and this meeting was put off until they had a chance to talk without child’s ears around, so it’s[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
I mentioned in Andi's cast page entry that she has an in-progress back tattoo themed around the Epic of Gilgamesh. I wanted to get at least one shot of it worked in. I think it will probably become a continuity nightmare. XD
