5’s my favorite, then 3. Though personally I’d love to see 5’s skirt paired with 3’s sweater

This was so much fun to be a part of, you’re all gonna love it!

Very good brain juice :relieved:

Hello! I'd like to join the server :grin:

My protag did commit suicide to become a lich, but I'm trying to infer it rather than be explicit? I feel dark themes should be fine as long as they're handled with care, pretending the bad stuff doesn't exist doesn't make it go away. We use stories to confront things we can't in real life, can't …

I used to love Darice's Studio 71 markers, they were cheap enough not to decimate the wallet while nice enough to blend like a copic. But Michael's closed down the line and repackaged them into their own Artist's Loft while running up the price :sob: Ohuhu markers are super super cheap, like less tha…

Just spitballing here buut- Perhaps by sacrificing the dragon bad guy absorbs the dragon’s essence/soul/magical doohickey to obtain it’s ability to wield all three magics, and trying to stuff an uber-powerful force of nature (i’m guessing) like a dragon’s soul into an elf-shaped container corrupts…

[image] Anstatica panel I went a little extra on that’s fun out of context.

First end of year summary, hopefully next year’s will be more filled out! Thanks so much to Tapas for tolerating my butt :heart: [image]

2.5-3? My main project has a few side plots that’ll be functionally one shots that I’m noodling at between main story pages. And there’s my sorely neglected rpg maker game that I bang my head against when I need a distraction :smile:

As long as the text doesn’t squish the art then its a-ok to me? Sometimes everyone needs to sit down for a talk and thats ok, better than losing the plot.

Raised catholic, I leave it at that usually and most people take the hint not to pry. If there is anyone/thing upstairs then oh do I have a bone or dozen to pick with them. Which probably influences my writing more than it should lol.

[image] It's gotta start somewhere?

You’re art is so pretty! I can’t wait to see where the story goes.

Seeing a chapter on the Mari Lwyd was an instant subscribe

So...much...reading material! This thread is a great idea versus ferreting around with tapas’ search bar :grin: Here’s my own stab at storytelling:

Music can be a skeleton key for me, one set of lyrics and !boom! Feels like being written into a corner and you suddenly have a chainsaw to chew through the problem.

Mine started while watching a damn isekai anime that prompted a late night text to our d&d dm: “Can liches breed?” (He’s unfortunately used to me by this point) After reassuring me that the undead can not in fact make babies I latched onto the idea of a disney-esque story of a child being adopted…

Don’t say that, You have 22 subscribers that think you’re worthwhile and you said you don’t use much social media so you have no idea what kind of audience could be out there. Along with having a new webcomic (6 months? it’s still a newborn!), its like giving up before you really start. Take a hia…

https://mobile.twitter.com/raeguard Hello, it’s mostly an art journal but I want to be more active!

See? You get what I mean lol

I’m at a big zero too for patrons, but I figured I’d throw my 2 cents in anyways :grin: . For starters it was hard to find your patreon link, not everyone will realize the image at the end is a patreon link. I looked on your series page and profile and didn’t see a thing. When I did realize that the l…

You’re right, just feels discouraging reading everywhere about readers expecting like 30 minimum.

I roll a hard chaotic-stupid. Poor, foolish mortals think there's rhyme or reason to their lives...

I'm having a heck of a time carving out space to draw my comic. Between a full time day job ramping up with the holidays and home life of two elderly dogs (I love them to absolute bits mind you) that require extra care, plus all the chores that you need to do to actually like, live, I can only seem…

In Anstatica humans that are particularly attuned to the earth's "pulse" can be trained to manipulate the earth's pulse, it's life force, and mimic the pulse with their own heartbeat/life force, essentially fooling the local vein into thinking they're the earth, which allows them to use it as an ene…
