Inktober 2024 - Week 4

Another week of sketches as Inktober rolls on. I got a little more distracted this week with some illness in the house. I got 6 out of the 7 for the week done. 5 more to go for the rest of the month.

Sketches for this week were inspired by the following prompts

• Medusa

• Vampire

• Asonists Lullaby 2024-10-26 22:56:26 +0000 UTC View Post

Open Trade - 253

Time to find out what offer this Studio wants to offer Stephanie. What do they want? Do you think Stephanie should say yes?

Yes, Mina is just off screen. She just didn't have anything to say on this page.

Next week we will be back to Final Exam, and then in November we will learn what Stephanie's answer will be.

Guest Art - Victory Vacation

Victory and Grace taking some time out post trades to relax and get some well earned time away from Stephanie and Lexi.

Once again, the great Sturkwurk lent his talents to imagining an updated look for Victory.

Open Trade - 252

Stephanie and Mina continue their journey into Seoul and find they have a ride waiting for them from the music studi. Seems like they are interested in our social media diva.

Stephanie already has a built in audience, in addition to an adult audience. What does the studio want to offer her?

Inktober - Week 3

I played a little catch up this week. I missed a bunch in the early part of the week, so I could focus on pages. And the back off of the week I had some time off and got to catch up.

Continuing to use our characters here with Victory, Lexi, Gwen and Stephanie. Stephanie got the most use so I didn't keep doing terrible things to Lexi.

Open trade - 251

Stephanie and Mina arrive in South Korea! we are going to follow them while they attend a wedding and Stephanie gets to experience a different culture from her own.

This feels like a talk they should have had a long while ago, but sometimes we forget things and make assumptions. While Mina knows fully about Stephanie's past and who she is,...

Guest Art - Victory Shows Off to Grace

I forgot that sturkwurk offered this render of well. Victory isn't the same height as Grace, she has some pretty tall heels and Grace is in sneakers. But we get to see more Victory's upgraded bod that she still needs to buy new shirts for. And well, she got looks at the court house before, the large rack isn't helping how people see her there. 2024-10-17 14:00:10 +0000 UTC View Post

Guest Art - Victory Museum

Sturkwurk wanted to do his take on Victory post trades. Not too much of a dramatic change for her. Curvier/bustier, as well as gaining a little more height as her wife suggested.

You saw her bust line increase in Monday's page. In Victory's 'Next...

Open Trade - 250

We have hit 250 pages! While I didn't plan for this stuff to coincide with a few major changes, we have a few notable things going on.

Victory did her first Trade. She has been changed by nanobots before, but the first time she has done a trade. I'm keeping Victory mostly intact and making some smaller, surface level changes to maybe help...

Inktober 2024 - Week 2

Week two of Inktober is in the books. I feel a little behind, but was able to catch up.

The themes this year are inspired by my Halloween playlist. The songs used as inspiration are:

• Dancing in the Moonlight  | Dr. Teeth and the Electric Mayhem

• Vampire  | ...

Open Trade - 249

I think this is the first page in a long time where all the font is the same color and the same font.

So I'm going back to a comic I wrote with Sturkwurk 7 years ago for this page. This is Grace, Victory (Harper's) partner/wife from the Ballad of Harper Kelly available on tgcomics.c...

Open Trade - pg 248

We're back to Open Trade! We are hanging out with Lexi and Victory who is sticking around to supervise Lexi. Lexi is trying to best in her Scottish-Bimbo words to try to convince Victory to do a trade.

Personally, I think Lexi is just happy to have someone around that is her size.

My goal is to split the month so we get some of Lex...

Final Exam - 16

We had back to Ella and Cassie at Morris home and Ella fishes to learn more about Morris and Cassie's relationship.

Thank you for your patience with the delayed page. I'm planning on Open Trade having new pages on Weds and Friday this week.

Inktober 2024 - Week 1

Here are the first batch of sketches from inktober. I sketched most of them early in the week before getting sick and needing to skip Friday's page (It will be up Monday).

I've been making some guidelines for myself. Mostly to work on improving my skills. Either black or white or a limited palette. I'll highlight the palettes in the corner...

Captioned Image - Ranma 1/2

Hi Folks! I'm not feeling too good. Stomach issues. So I'm going to move things around. So I'm posting this today, and pages will be next week. Sorry everyone.

-------------

 I was a fan of the original anime, even if I had only watched a season's worth of episodes. Obviously given other interestests, Ranma 1/2 is a story that ...

Poll - What will Victory Do?

READ BEFORE VOTING

I know it is a controvertial choice to have Victory (Harper) do a trade. Especially given her character's history. I wanted to answer a couple questions that will likely come up.

Victory Will be in Control
Victory is taking a random trade. But she will not be making the same mistakes as Step...

Open Trade Digest : 236-241

Mina makes a bold gesture to win Stephanie over and give a experience she has been desiring. Stephanie makes a change before going on a trip. Lexi is also here.

Inktober 2024

It's October and that means it's Inktober.

What's Inktober? Essentially it is a month to encourage artists to use more physical resources to draw something every day. Similar to Septrener that TGC does, but the version for 2D artists.

I've been thinking of giving it a go this year. Instead of the prompts that ma...

Final Exam - 15

We've seen Ella going to Morri's home. Let's see what's going on with Morris living in Ella's skin. The perfect time for her to have a visitor.

Final Exam - 14 | UPDATED

EDIT: A low-res file was uploaded by mistake. Hi-res artwork is now up. Sorry for the inconvience.

Ella heads home to to Morris's apartment, along with Morris's body and gets to meet Morris's roommate.

Sketch - Saiyan Stephanie

Way back in July I took some requests for sketches while I tested out some new tools. I did draw this back in July, but due to the schedule, I wasn't able to get this one up until now.

Cody Sevens asked for any anime character I wanted to draw. Unfortunately, my anime knowledge is a bit limited. So I thought it would...

Final Exam - 13

Back to Final Exam as our swapped SWP app users, Morris and Ella try to figure out what to do with their new reality about being trapped in each others bodies.

When writing originally I wrote 24 pages, then changed formatting of the page layouts. So the 24 pages I wrote turned into 14 pages. I always had a plan if the story finished earlie...

Final Exam - Cover

Final Exam follows Morris as he gets an offer to rent out his body, or rather, paid to take someone else's body in order to pass a college exam. How much are they offering for this service, and will Morris even consider it?

You can download the PDF for Final Exam at the link below.

Open Trade - Pg 247

Victory's first time on camera, and it seems like a good time for her to take advantage of the opportunity to talk to the audience. Maybe it can help her fix things.

Victory's tats are shifting a bit as I figure out how to simplify and replicate them easier and faster.

Victory's chest tat is based off a tat a model I used to work w...

Pin Up - Leaving on a Jet Plane

Stephanie is getting ready to take off on a flight out of the country. She's more than a little nervous. I'm sure she will be fine...mostly.

Meanwhile, it's Lexi's time to shine!!

Open Trade - pg 246

Stephanie is off on her trip, leaving Lexi alone to do the stream. Maybe she can talk someone into helping her out.

Putting more work into Victory's tats. I did catch that I entirely missed a page where she was in a tank top and we should have seen a lot of tats. I'll have to go back and fix that one.

Open Trade - 245

244 was a bit of a rough page. I hadn't been feeling good lately. Bit of meds. Bit of seasonal stuff. Feeling much better after some rest yesterday and ready to go, and will likely working on next week's pages a little later today.

Fun notes or comments or questions.

I don't know if Victory realizes she is dressed like Kim Possible. ...

Open Trade - pg 244

Victory has a quick talk with the changed trio in advance of Stephanie's trip out of the country.

Captioned Image - Transporter

I'm feeling really rough for the past few days. Working on recovering. So moving Weds post to today to get myself some more time. Thanks!

Teleporters accidents are bound to happen. It's only worse when you actively invite the teleporter to alter things for you.

I actually did this one back in July, and forgot to...
