THISTLE YOU'RE NOT ALLOWED TO DO THAT THIS IS MY COMIC

*finger wagging*

shame shame shame

edit: all of you guys make me laugh so hard all the time

Summoning-Circle-002.ai

Oh, you know, just designing some demonic summoning rituals. NBD.

This is going to make a cool process gif

Time to design some cool circles.

Second Drafts

Every time I finish a scene that's proven to be unusually difficult, I always sit back, look at the final script and think to myself "WHY WAS THAT SO HARD."

Sometimes I wish I could just show my past self the thumbnails I decide on so that I can save myself all the stress and trouble that comes with getting these messy plans together.

First Drafts

AUGH this is hard fighting is hard I just want to draw people smooching instead.

There were a lot of last minute changes on this page.

Everyone was expecting Thistle to bombard Brent about the one, but really, it was about the other. Hopefully those background additions help clarify ...

Just for Fun

Just finished and sent over page 8 to Meg, and before I start coloring page 9 I decided to do a draw for fun and it ended up being this gal.  I really like her design- she's going to have to end up somewhere else in one of my stories too XD

I'll throw up the finished inks later when I finish it, but I really wanted to share with someone ...

Meg's Flower Gown Sneak Peek (spoiler free?)

Compared to Yoko, I have made very little progress.

Flower Gown Sneak Peek (spoiler free)

Those of you who keep up with Meg and I on Tumblr and Twitter (mostly twitter) will know what the flower gown thing is.  Basically we both independently decided to draw Thistle in a ballgown.  Here's a cropping sneak peek of mine while I tinker at it a little at a time.  This is the composition at 100%, and it will be  HUGE when...

Ch5 Pg4 HIRES

Weird stuff like this is always really easy to write for some reason. 

Fun Fact: as I was scheduling this page on the website/setting up everything, my husband came in and suggested I change that first line of Orrig's dialogue. You guys are getting the un-edited version.

Professor Design Sneak Peek

So while working on Chapter 5, Meg asked me if I'd like to design a character that makes an appearance in the big ol' showdown fight and I jumped at the chance :3

She's snarky, always up on the latest trends (sometimes inventing a few herself), ready for a good time but never afraid to put her magic where her mouth is.

I had a lot o...

Ch5 Pg3 HIRES

I keep reminding myself to type Chapter FIVE and not Chapter THREE for some reason. I think some part of me can't believe we're this far in the story already. Thank you guys so much for that. That's 100% you.

Anyway, if this comic were still updating on Mondays, I'm sure we all could crack a lot of jokes about how Thistle is feeling. I'm sure...

Wu Insignia (WIP)

Second verse, same as the first.

BWWWAAAAAAUGH

Hey there, Brody.

It was pointed out in the stream that the drath's nose hole looks like a one-tooth smiling mouth.  Ain't 'ee sho kewt!?

ProTip:

Don't leave your inks lying around or they may be taken advantage of (by cats, dogs, or restless husbands, whichever you prefer).

Coloring All-day stream

 https://picarto.tv/Nytrinhia

Okay, so, the time is not going to just magically make itself available to me, so we're gonna make the time.  All day today I will be streaming on Picarto.  I don't expect anyone to be awake this early, so I'll start doing some du...

Stream Post-poned?

So my aunt and grandmother are driving into town tonight for Mother's Day weekend and my cousin's husband's graduation.  Cousin also has classes tonight  (for which she's stressing out about as she completes her assignment) and has asked me to not talk to her or ask her about what the schedule for this week/end is going to be like... ...

Coloring Stream

Got the okay from Meg, so sometime tonight I'll be hosting a stream over on Picarto as I color the next few pages (read: five pages, gotta lotta work to do).  I might not get to all of them in one sitting, but we'll at least get two done.  After two of them I might do some doodling and fun stuff, we'll see!  So keep an eye out for th...

whoa geez chill out

HEY BY THE WAY

SECRET FUN FACT FOR YOU PATRONS:

THERE IS A VERY VERY VERY VERY VERY IMPORTANT SECRET ITEM THAT IS MAKING ITS FIRST APPEARANCE ON THIS PAGE THAT WILL COME BACK LATER TO HAUNT THE CHARACTERS.

You're in the know now, so that when it appears and I mention that it's been in the comic already before, you'll know exactly which page that w...

Wallpaper #009 - Master Wu

Yahoo! 

I'm pretty lucky I had a backlog of finished artwork to use for these wallpapers. I'm pretty proud of this cover still, so I'm glad I get to pimp it out as a wallpaper for you, too!

May's Wallpaper will be a mirror of this one, featuring Brody! Those of you with two monitors can start dreaming about the sweet display you're...

Reposting the Full Size of Page 1 again today, since I am a creature of habit! 

Wallpaper versions of the Chapter 5 Cover will be posted today for your enjoyment! Still so much to catch up on....

Page 5-03 WIP

Drawing the underside of a tree where light is filtering through, probably one of the more harder things I've done working on this comic.  It has to be believeable but still fit with the detail level and tone of the rest of the colors.  When coloring pages I always do backgrounds first to establish mood and direction of the lighting, and ...

Inked that Babyface

ugh

Wallpaper #008 - Loom

Finally! 

A variety of sizes are available as attachments. Let me know if there's a size you need that you don't see here.

I still owe you guys two more wallpapers. Is there anything specific you want to see? Any requests?
