Hi-Fi Rush: Mostly (h)Armless page (23/?)

And this is where the evening goes from good to great.

Hi-Fi Rush: Mostly (h)Armless page (22/?)

This is the point in the story where we've reached a fork in the road. The moment Chai rammed that vent door off its hinges I had about 10 different ways the upcoming basement scene could play out. Several of which I realized upon further thought would realistically result in well... a game over for Chai. I storyboarded the others with my usual ...

Hi-Fi Rush: Mostly (h)Armless page (21/?)

Man, Chai's been rolling nothing but nat 20s on dumb luck. Been giving him the cleanest version of the script... for now.

Hi-Fi Rush: Mostly (h)Armless page (20/?)

KEM-N0 ain't playin games. Just in case I haven't made that point strongly enough.

20 pages, a milestone! Getting closer to the halfway mark every week! I just wanna say thanks to all of you for supporting Mostly (h)Armless so far! It's been a blast, I haven't had this much fun making comics in a long time.

To be honest, I don't thin...

Hi-Fi Rush: Mostly (h)Armless page (19/?)

I can almost hear the faint chants of "Chai! Chai! Chai!"

Team Rockstar: 1

Team Murder Robots: Big fat zero

Hi-Fi Rush: Mostly (h)Armless page (18/?)

Drawing pages like this feels like coming home for me. It's been too long.

Also told ya not to underestimate Chai. Bro's got moves.

Hi-Fi Rush: Mostly (h)Armless page (17/?)

Chai's mama didn't raise no quitter!!

Now, after 17 pages of build-up, we have finally reached the moment I have promised since the preface;

When all his powers and abilities are simultaneously taken away, Chai is forced to do the impossible; use his brain to win a fight.

In one corner, we have 3 deadl...

Survival mode activated

If there was absolutely zero chance for Chai to make it out of this alive, I'd have just let the KEM-N0 rip his head off and been done with it. Fewer pages to draw for me lol

But I like letting characters face ridiculous odds. Because that makes it all the more satisfying if they manage to overcome th...

Hi-Fi Rush: Mostly (h)Armless page (15/?)

20 minutes...

The whole comic lasts about 30-35 minutes in real time. 10 of those have already passed. We're running on a tight schedule here. But we're almost done setting up the promised confrontation. All the game rules have been laid down, foreshadowing seeds planted. There's just one more thing to add to the mix...

Also somethin...

Hi-Fi Rush: Mostly (h)Armless page (14/?)

No help is coming...

Anyway, a self-repairing robot (or at least one that sort of puts itself back together but looks more and more fucked up as a result) 

I'm frankly astonished none of the enemies in the game could do that. Seems like a very...roboty thing to do. But it could have slowed down the pacing of the fights so maybe ...

Hi-Fi Rush: Mostly (h)Armless page (13/?)

Well that was harsh.

And also an interesting question on Korsica's part. One that, for everyone's sake, I decided not to answer. But at least Chai's robot arm provided him one last service by destroying KEM-N0's forcefield -and jaw- which held him trapped.

It also appears that the comic will likely be a bit longer than 42 pages. I've...

Hi-Fi Rush: Mostly (h)Armless page (12/42)

And now you know where the comic got its title. But at least 808 is back online!

A deceptively difficult page. Took as long as those with over 10 panels. It's because those poses with the murder robots interacting with Chai are so hard to get right. Weird to think that, not too long ago, I couldn't draw humans at all. I still struggle with...

How would you like your WIPS?

Hi there! I'd like to ask you, my dear backers, if you'd like to see the WIPs of pages before I have finished them or after. If you choose before, you will get spoilers though. 

Hi-Fi Rush; Mostly (h)Armless WIPS

As promised, These are a handful of WIPS of pages that I saved. You will be getting WIPS of upcoming pages as well... Once I've started on them... My storyboards consist of actual stick figures so I don't think there is value is showing those.

I have some bonus content ready to go, as well as sketch pages that were scrapped. But all of tho...

Hi-Fi Rush: Mostly (h)Armless page (11/42)

So Armstrong Shielding...

At first, I was unsure whether I should add that little plot point or not. Chai's invulnerability in the game was obviously fueled by comedic value rather than any kind of technology. It wouldn't be very funny if Chai got turned into human confetti whenever the baddies kicked him around like a foo...

Hi-Fi Rush: Mostly (h)Armless page (10/42)

At least Chai had the presence of mind to block that bite with his robot arm rather than his face.

This is as far as I got with the comic right now. I work on it every evening during my free time. My minimum requirement is to finish at least one page a week. But I prefer to finish two. Three pages is a stretch goal. Working full-time and a...

Since these pages are already available on my socials, I've decided to put these together in a single post.

Mostly (h)Armless, a Hi-Fi Rush fan comic.

Hey there! Thank you very much for choosing to support my latest project! I haven't done fan comics in many y...

update

Hello! 

I apologize for not updating in months. I got so preoccupied that I forgot to pause the last billing cycle. That's not the way I like to run things and I have now corrected this for March.

I'm not sure how much I can or should say about what happened last year and this past month. It's probably better to keep that kind o...

Pausing Patreon billing until I have content again.

Hello! Unfortunately I haven't had time to make anything that I can upload on Patreon so far and this trend is likely to continue for a while. Per usual, I won't charge any of my Patreons until I am back.

I am in the slow process of writing the outline for a new comic. But it will take time before I have the framework done and even more ti...

Next up

Hello there, kind supporters.

Now that Vigil has successfully 'fledged' I've had a little time to reflect. 

I'm very grateful for how my story has been received. There has been more reaction than I could ever wish for. To the point that I am struggling to keep up with all the lovely comments. I will take my time reading and repl...

VIGIL FINALE

https://www.webtoons.com/en/challenge/vigil/list?title_no=785111

Thank you all for your support! I will post my final thoughts and what is next soon.

Concept art for the comic will be released later this month! As well as a few su...

Vigil panels 121 - 132

This sequence was actually recycled from Sunmakers storyboards. It was one of my favorites. The upcoming action scene was also taken almost frame to frame from Sunmakers. Please enjoy a taste of what I had in store for that comic.

Next upload will be the final before I upload the full comic to webtoon. I hope to finish the story next Sunda...

Vigil - panels 117 - 120

I decided to split this update up because the file was too big for my laptop to handle. Next part will be uploaded tomorrow!

Vigil panels 107 - 116

Pretty sure this page has more than 200 layers. Probably why it didn't turn out quite as good as the others.

Just 3 pages left to go. And 12 days left to to do them. Let's go!

Vigil panels 98 - 106

4 pages left to go. I really like this one!

Vigil panel 83 - 97
