Charity Case Ch2:Pg22 process & hi-res

I'm really enjoying all these photos! Possibly because the room and colour scheme for this scene have..been reaLLY PLAIN. Unpack faster, Jul!

Feelings? Get outta there Marn.Also! A note for anyone worried- I'm not going down any kinda child abuse route, bad parenting absolutely, but nothing awful.

You'll notice I started saving the rough colour before I filled in the eyes ¬_¬, too scary for me.

November 2018 Sketches

Lots of inking experiments in this one, I'm hoping to ink the short charity case comic in a simpler style, to practice for future things!

Rock Tier- November 2018 sketches

-slides these over the table-

I'll be really glad to have Juliens room filled, there wasn't really anything I could do to liven up those top panels :S!

Also included the gestural sketch, I make a proper mess to begin with, before working into it!

Charity Case Ch2:Pg19

Goodbye, overly complex patches, you have served your purpose.

Charity Case Ch2:Pg18 process & hi-res

Some reference to start me off with the stupid perspective I chose :P.Happy with the art in this page, less happy with the script hehe, I think the lack of proper conversation is taking its toll, and I think I should stop breaking it up so much for silly jokes, or cutting around so often!

Marnie has a sixth sense for free food ;P

Short comic character focus (Yet another poll ;P)

So I figured I'd get you all to vote for who you'd want to see most- and then I'll figure out a couple of plots to vote between!It'll be something short and sweet- like Chef Julien or Dancing Queen.Not sure how well this'll work with so many options, but hopefully it won't be too tied >v<

Concept- Louise Darling

Julien's Mum! My previous sketches looked...too much like Julien? I want there to be a strong similarity, but enough differences that it doesn't just look like Jul with makeup :S! Still not quite as distinct as I'd like, but I'll push the droopy eyes and oval face further as I work with her I think! (She's gonna show up sooooon!)Also hey did I mention that Julien's surname is Darling? It started out as a joke, but it stuck...

$5 tier sketch/comic preferences

I'm slowly working on another nsfw sketch comic- and I figured I'd see how you'd prefer to read it! Currently, I release sketches in a monthly pdf, and comics in a separate pdf when they're completed fully (there's only been one but y'know).I'm not fond of the idea of having full nsfw content on the feed, but I could post individual sketches as attachments, or individual pages as attachments, depending on what people p...

$1 tier sketch preferences

Sorry for all the polls recently, I'm just trying to figure out the best way to share stuff!Since I'll be working a little harder on charity case- and focusing a little less on sketches, there won't be quite as many, so I thought I'd check in!Feel free to comment with opinions/alternatives!How would you prefer sketches?

Charity Case Ch2:Pg17 process & hi-res

That last Julien...so spook...

Charity Case Ch2:Pg17

So many patches O-O

More patch concepts

I realised I'd put Roman in That Jacket so I had to solidify my sketchy designs from before + figure out colours!

Charity Case Ch2:Pg16 process & hi-res

Boy I did not anticipate how dull a staircase would be as a setting haha!

Charity Case Ch2:Pg16

I'm so much happier with the detail level you guys, you have no idea :'D. I can actually draw expressions from a distance *weeps*. (idk if I shared that on this tier- I lowered my minimum brush size- which is obviously more work for me, but definitely worth it for non-messy pages)I've also been K/O'd by a cold and I didn't have chance to do anything for thank you patrons day! But thank you all so much! It means the world to me...

Content priorities (& a style experiment)

Hey! So the majority of voters in the poll wanted more Charity Case pages, so I'll do my best to up the output on those. I think the plan will be to increase my buffer to a point where I can consider working on a Charity Case side comic- (like dancing queen) which was the second highest vote. At some point in the near future I'll open polls to decide the characters to focus on, and possibly a poll to choose between plots!Once I've don...

Charity Case Ch2:Pg15 process & hi-res

The backgrounds in this page weren't even sketched I just blobbed the right kinda colours in roughly the right places and then blurred the hell out of it to give the impression of a street ¬-¬.

Charity Case Ch2:Pg15

Tough love ¬_¬.

Charity Case Ch2:Pg14 process & hi-res

I think I went a bit overboard with the sunlight on the faces, Juliens a bit yellow...but I'm trying to not be too picky :P

Charity Case Ch2:Pg14

(It's masala chai cake, or something like it! ;p)

Content preferences- poll!

So there's quite a few more $1 patrons now, and I wanted to see what kinda stuff you're here for, so I can adjust what I spend time on if needed!Obviously this is a poll for everyone, but the options are the things available from the lowest tier!The last option is for potentially starting a separate short comic, I have some ideas, but they're on the backburner atm! (for example, the Hermit and the Hiker- a wintery wlw romance. Or pote...

Charity Case Ch2:Pg13 Hi-res & process

Usually if I was going to draw a lot of something, I'd learn how to draw it 'properly', but the car features once now, and once wayyy later in the plot, so I'm absolutely just using a 3D reference. Like, the house I know how to draw roughly, I use a reference for parts of it, maybe an angle reference, or a colour one, but it's mostly my own work. The car not so much.Anyone have thoughts on having the sketch and colour separate...
