I think just by coincidence my comic is taking place in spring as it is spring now (but I’ve been stuck in spring for like a year with it lol) still I think the latest page was very spring, a bunch of flowery stuff

Oh dang I missed love month 
I was recovery from surgery for so long, I’m doing better now tho >:] Throwback to old butter bee in its rough state though, when Chariot is introduced in this chapter!! I think they’re flirting?? Maybe idk lol. It’s fun to see how much the pages have changed ! I think s…
[image] Slowly converting a sketchbook page into a digital piece! :0
Wait this is such a fun idea??! I wanna try! I’m gonna make something for this tomorrow, I loved seeing everyone’s outfit swaps. 
@Leyelle
Yes, but it’s not his given name. He fashioned his name after his favorite movie star named “Movie Star” 
Also, will your new comic be a slice of life one, then? Or I could see it lending well to a romantic comedy, the premise has a good set up for that! The daughter’s design is very …
@Leyelle Oh new character I see dropped!! Tell us a bit about him 
also this is reminding me to draw more characters with glasses, even I wear glasses but I forget to give them to characters lol
Thank you!! I feel like Selene is one of my prettiest characters just in general. I love drawing her I’ve mostly just done sketches of her though.
I really like the character expression sheet you have here omg! You have so many cool looking characters. My current comic has a lot of different br…

A horse from when I was 2 years old! Found it in a scrapbook years ago. Lowkey I want it on a shirt, it’s too weird to be ignored we call it “Honse” in my family.
Oh NO? Thanks for the warning, honestly I was thinking of trying the paper-feel screen protectors out myself but I already wear out my nibs normally.
Ah I see, I hadn’t tried out the paper feel ones myself! And cintiqs are nice, they had them at the college I went to. I just don’t have the right set up for it, all I have is crap laptop so I feel like photoshop would lag so badly I usually draw traditionally though.
Oh this is interesting, I actually hated the feeling of drawing on a Wacom tablet and prefer directly drawing on the iPad. Not so much because of the texture difference but I enjoy drawing directly on the surface instead of being detached drawing a blank screen that translates to the monitor. I did …
@Calculus_Homework Omg I love these??! I can’t decide if my favorite design is the one with goth style on the bottom left or the character with the cutesy style on the bottom right?? My two personal fashion spectrums: goth or cutesy lol. All the characters are cute tho lowkey 
Also what is your co…
I think the most unrealistic part of my stories is that everyone is fashionable I feel like it’s hard to find just someone in a plain t shirt and jeans in my world. But I love putting everyone in nice little outfits!! Or weird fashion too. But it’s statement still I can’t help it, I think I made t…
[image] Still working on this but I got the three main characters finished!!
@ArtGremlin omg you know I never noticed that detail, it’s literally gold I love that I’m gonna have to pay more attention to the book covers now!
@Leyelle Her earrings are dragonflies
I think Rubia and Texas look very different from each other! It is funny that they’re both short and albin…
[image]
Also that’s a good Book, I heard many great reviews about that one. I haven’t got to reading it yet tho.
@Leyelle I do have something I was working on with her! Her name is Princess Eloise, and she’s gonna be in butter bee one of these days lol [image] And I didn’t realize Texas had albinism!! I just thought she was very pale lol. Albinism in itself is pretty rare so I feel like having dark hair w…
@Leyelle They’re OCs for a forgotten webcomic I tried doing it a few times but I only ever did sketches and a cover page.
Is she albino? I have one character like that too, I’m never sure how dark/light to make her complexion, and I guess it changes with whatever lighting conditions she might b…
[image] I haven’t done a character line up in forever it feels like, and it’s funny because I used to do them all the time?? I need to finish up inking it so I can move on to color tho! @Leyelle I love the color combo! I think pinky reds and violet look so good, I tend use variations of it too l…
I think all my main characters are considered crazy or weird by others but like also they’re not just weirdos usually they do actually have a pretty intense mental illness, I tend to explore different facets of my schizophrenia with different characters, just because it’s such an under represented …
Aw!! She ZOOMS for the paper ball. I love how a cat’s favorite toy always ends up being literal trash I have a calico too, she made me smile too just by being her doofy self.
Thank you! I love freckles so whenever I have a story I feel like at least one character gets them lol they’re such a cool facial feature! I also add a lot of moles/beauty marks normally too to other characters.
I recently did a character ref with their ages for a long forgotten story idea I had! I still have the outline for whenever I want to get back into it, but I think there ages have changed from when I first initially wrote this particular story. The webcomic is so sad it’s just a cover it was Persep…
I feel that too honestly that’s happened to me too, it’s like getting a apology letter instead of a rejection letter lol
!!! We also had those in Texas, we were pretty close to Mexico so I guess we got those same tropical birds. The cranes and herons are just pretty cool looking birds in gene…
@abigaillmartin Awe! Well congrats?? Idk if that’s the right wording 
But that’s exciting still! I think when anyone’s first dating it’s a little bit awkward but it’s still a source of joy. I’m happy for you! ^_^
@Leyelle In Texas I would also occasionally see the green parrots! There weren’t larg…
Yes!!! Go off honestly I also draw a lot of self portraits. They’re not as a cool though because I don’t have a Houdini to accompany me
Oh this just popped up for me we love it, it’s our daily dose of Houdini (with complimentary handcuffs of course lol)
Yeah I get you I left off her drama on the kid-friendly version. Certainly anyways forget her, donuts are way better, especially local ones!! Our bakery closed down recently so I have to wait to get good donuts until the summer from the farmers market chocolate donut are particularly good tho!! I …
Oh I love donuts, dang now I’m craving some
Oh I just found that image online, our cake looked JANK!!! but that sounds like such a cute idea to make! I also used to like the Harry Potter movies as a kid, but never read the books. But now JK Rowling outed herself as a soggy piece of bread so it’s kind of sad 
I still occasionally watch the Gob…
