Character Creator - Complete Comic

Nate is experimenting with a new service that connects video games with nanobots in your body. It allows you to experience and be your character in the flesh while you play. A mishap connects his bots to the wrong game.

This includes the full 11 page comic, including cover.

Thank you for joining us on this journey.

Homeward Bound | PTA Mom - 05

Mercedes heads back home after the PTA meeting. How will she be able to turn back before she gets home? Does she want to turn back?

As I break what feels like a cardinal rule in TG and transformation fiction, I will say this is not the end of the story. There is a lot more coming. Currently I have this scripted for 14 pages at the moment, ...

Ultimate Hair Poll

Stephanie's hair has changed up a bunch of the course of her story. I feel that when I'm told to 'draw Steph' I tend to draw the purple bangs.

But with Steph coming back for a short story, I figure she has had time to mix up her hair once more. So below I have a lot of options. Too many options for the poll software, if I'm being honest....

Hold On | Character Creator - 11

Poor Natalia remains on hold waiting for someone from technical support to talk to her again.

And this is going to be the end of Character Creator. It was always made to just be something short and fun to contrast the 300+ page weight of Open Trade.

Last week, people threw out of a bunch of stuff they would like to see and different...

Bathroom Break | PTA Mom - 04

Mercedes takes a moment of privacy to finally take a look at the new her in the bathroom mirror. Getting up close and personal with her altered appearance.

How long until you own a traded trait? | Poll

When trading traits, people in the trade make two choices. To buy or to rent. We've been mostly following rented traits with Steph and Lexi.

Steph has been holding on to these traits for over a year and a half now. As I'm planning new stories, it raises a question.

How long can you rent a trait before you own it, and you have techn...

Tech Support | Character Creator - 10

Nat reaches out to tech support for a solution to their problem. Hopefully they can do something to help.

Because Reasons | PTA Mom - 03

Sylvia gives some insight into why she did the spell, or at least why she learned it.

Debbie is a menace and must be stopped.

Just a Jester | Pin Up

I was making a quick bumper for Open Trade on tgcomics. I thought I'd have a little fun and dress Stephanie up as a jester. Should this have been Lexi? Probably. Especially given the reference I used. But I thought it would cute to play with the ren vintage jester vibe.

What do you like more, the muted shades, or the bold colors?

Troubleshooting | Character Creator - 09

Nat and Chloe continue to work on trouble shooting their situation. But it feels like this may take a while to sort out.

Welcoming Committee | PTA Mom - 02

It's time for our new mom to meet some other members of the PTA. Everyone is very friendly and welcoming. And likely not going to dig into anyone's personal life.

A few people have asked about if cameos would be open at some point. This premise and the script I wrote does lend it self to more crowds and locations with other people. Anika ...

8 Years on Patreon

I was looking up some data and noticed that this July marks 8 years of me doing stuff here on Patreon. I thought it'd be nice to take a quick look back. I grabbed a pin up every year from 2018 through today (literally drawn today) to see if there is any improvement or evolution.

I'm glad to see I at least improved a bit over time. Hoping...

Stephanie Takes Flight | Guest Artist Sturkwurk

With the arc of Open Trade coming to an end, Sturkwurk offered to make pic of Stephanie finally heading home from an extended trip overseas.

Character Creator - 08 | Comic

Back to our girl's plight as they try to figure out why the video game is changing her and how to undo it. I'm sure the new plan will work without any flaws.

Catch up on the story with the Character Creator collection below.

Welcome Aboard | PTA Mom - 01

Kicking off our new comic this week about a dad being welcomed into the PTA in the only was the president of the organization knows how.

Previously, this was shown to our Explorer Tier, and we are going to expand on it here. This version is a little bit different, I recolored it to change the color palette. Also did a light text update. 2025-07-25 13:19:57 +0000 UTC View Post

Return of Cynthia | Commission

Rag reached out and requested a commission of Cynthia from the Ballad of Harper Kelly (available on tgcomics.com )

I won't say who she is in the story, but she is responsible for Victory becoming a a tiny punk rocker.

If you are interested in a commission, complete the for...

Character Creator - 07

With the first main arc of Open Trade complete, it is time to get back to the story of mixing nanobots and video games for fun and pleasure.

It's been a couple months since we posts this series, so be sure to catch up on the story, here!

...

Open Trade - Q&A

As we come to an end on this era of Open Trade lets take a moment to answer some questions from people here and on discord.

Have a question of your own? Ask below!

Is this the end forever? 

No, this is the end of this arc or this story. There will be more stories with Stephanie, Lexi, and the Trade Mark...

Castle v. Castle | Pin Up

Steph had her moment to look back at her former self. Now it's Lexi's turn.

Lexi doesn't take up anywhere as much space as Stephanie does. The little short stack does her best to show how awesome the new her is.

The Explorers have been getting more of my experimentation with shading over the last couple months. But I've added seconda...

Hunter v. Hunter | Pin Up

It's been a long time since we have done the stats for Wyatt and Lexi's progression through al their different changes. As we hit the end of

What's Coming Next?

With the ending of this story arc of Open Trade, I'm going to change up some things on the site here. Hopefully to get a wider range of fun.

Short-Term Plans

This week, I'm gonna keep things light with some pin ups, and a Q&A at the end of the week. If you have Questions or Comments leave them below.

Next Week will be a...

Open Trade - 307

Stephanie and Lexi have one more moment before trying to claim some normalcy.

This is going to be the end of this story arc. But Stephanie and Lexi will return.

I'll do a Q&A Later this week. If you have any questions on Open Trade, leave them below. Quick ones I'll answer right away. Big ones will be addressed on Friday.

Open Trade - 306

Victory gives some good news and has other news.

We are nearing the end of this arc. There will be more Open Trade and more of Steph and Lexi in the future, but the end of this arc will be monday.

Sorry this one is a couple hours late, we had some pretty bad storms and it was causing some brown outs. So I couldn't work on stuff. 2025-07-11 17:21:27 +0000 UTC View Post

Stephanie Demon Hunter | Captioned Image

Recently KPop Demon Hunters came out on Netflix. I have to say, it's pretty fun. Music is a bop, animation is creative, and overall a good time.

After watching it felt only right to dress our own Stephanie up in a role that seems that it was made for her.

Some of you may notice, I'm also playing around with a new workflow. We have a ...

Open Trade - 305

Maybe Stephanie can talk some sense into Jennifer the KPop star and get part of herself back.

Open Trade - 304 | CORRECTION

EDIT: I made a mistake with the text bubbles that is now corrected. It was big enough that I felt I needed to push the correction out. I had a little extra time and I re-did the app visual as well.

Stephanie's confrontation with the woman that stole her trait continues and shines some light on motivations.

Short Stack | Commission

A quick 3 panel comic strip commission for Ken Dahl featuring their OCs.

Slight Delay

There is a bit of a delay with pages. A very close friend of mine and Best Dame at my wedding was in the ICU over the weekend (and still is). So I was at the hospital for a good chunk of time, and wasn't able to work on things.

She's doing a lot better, and will likely recover. They are working on a long term treatment plan before they se...

Open Trade - 303

It's the return of Jennifer the K-Pop star that screwed Stephanie over. I'm sure Stephanie has no strong feelings about meeting her.

Rosie Saytr | Sketch

Still playing around with this look and style.
