So I was starting the artwork to celebrate my 5 years of being on Patreon (and Poking Around reaching 100 pages) when I stumbled across an old bit of unfinished art from 2017.

Ugh, this was a bit of a difficult page to not make a text-wall.

Fret not, this isn't some ominous premonition. Rather, this is my way of dealing with some very strange emotions generated by bingeing too much Battlestar Galactica.

Just a brief check-in. I'm closing in on finishing the remaining pin-ups for the lower tier so those will go up hopefully before the month is out.

Phew. This was a biggie, and probably one of the most personal pages I’ve produced for quite some time. I’m not 100% sure how much of this will resonate with those who came of the age in the 2010s, but as aforesaid, pre-2010 was quite a different world; to put it rather euphemistically, “This was back when being [that way] w...
