Underneath that cynical extieror Diana is a real softie.

Underneath that cynical extieror Diana is a real softie.

Belbenoit identified. Where has she seen that face before?

Clearly Zander and Ginger aren't used to entertaining company.

I think Zander just wanted Diana to meet his hot new girlfirend.

Stefan the Especialista was modeled on Stefan Kinsella, who is a noted critic of Intellectual Property. Inasmuch as some would say he justifies "piracy," I thought it would be fun to give this character a cheesy pirate patois.

That receptionist was modeled on an unbelievably attractive ginger lady who was the secretary for my probate attorney. The model only had two arms, though.

Lots and lots of floaty buildings. And a great big stack of pancakes.

Man, that month just flew by! Catching up and thanks for your patience:

I'm sure my old friend and former creative partner L. Neil Smith won't mind me portraying him as a successful media mogul.

The more Diana focuses on her case, and less on trying to jolly-up Areum, the better.

I enjoy drawing Alyss and Diana interacting. It's when they feel the most "real" to me.

This one was easy in the pencils, then complicated in the inks. The stars and circles are all from some free custom brushes for Clip Studio that I downloaded.

Monty Porcupine, on the other hand, kind of gives her the creeps.

Monty Panther is Diana's favorite avatar, I think.

I kind of dread it when I have to sit down and draw a page with a lot of detail like this, but once I get into it I remember why I choose to do this.

Nope, I'm not doing fan-service showing Diana's naked breasts. When this happens, it's to emphasize her vulnerability. Anyway, that's my story and I'm sticking to it.

Poor Wook learns that her attraction to Diana is not reciprocated. I played this bit fairly subtly, maybe too subtly for many.

Working of a 3-D schematic of the Baxter Building was more challenging than I expected. But then, so are most things in this comic-strip. In fact, most of it wasn't finished until after the colors came in.

Drawing a bunch of old, run-down buildings takes a lot more time than drawing a bunch of shiny, new buildings, lemme tell ya.

Anesthesia-fields are the only way to go in surgery.

Hey, mind of our completely uncertified meatball surgeon digs that nasty little tracker out of your arm?
