We've been talking for AGES about updating the Patreon properly and finally took the first step in updating the landing page!

I wanted to play around with the style of the Elden Ring comic series from last year.ALSO HEY WHILE I'M HERE!!! BARBAROUS CHAPTER 8 PAGE ONE WILL BE POSTED TOMORROW!!! >:D >:D >:D I'll start sharing progress breakd...

front-facing Leeds is here
The chapter is coming along! I realized I've now colored every panel where Leeds faces the camera :) I don't really like drawing Front-Facing Leeds but sometimes you gotta!!!!My covid recovery is ALSO coming along!!! I've gotten to a point where I'm crashing way less in the middle of the day (good!), but also still sleeping like 11 hours every night (weird but the doctor says that's probably normal!). But all in all there seems to be an upward trend in everything day by day. Thank you to everyone for your continued patience!...
Ohhh this scene looks familiar
I'm still on Chapter 8 colors!!!!! But ALL of the flats are in for the entire chapter (thanks to Charlie Davis, thank you Charlie!!!!)These are the flat colors (so the colors aren't final!) but I wanted to show off some callbacks to chapter 4. :) There's going to be some fun flashbacks in this chapter. :)As always, here's Ananth's thumbnails and my pencils/inks over them.
Comics I've been reading
Hi everyone! It's Ananth. I thought it might be fun to talk about what I've been reading lately. My relationship with comics is sort of complicated in that I always love making them, but sometimes my interest dips in reading them. I'm definitely in a dip! Which is going to make this list look insane, because I guess it's not really short:Kowloon Generic Romance by Jun Mayuzuki - Love this series, the first volume is especially strong. Hard to describe-- it's the tale of an everyday romance unfolding in Kowloon Walled City wi...
The outfit poll winner is...
By an 8% margin, LEEDS!!!For a hot second on the poll's first day Cameron was winning and I got very excited!! But Leeds completely overcame him and had a pretty generous lead from the second day forward. Thank you to everyone who voted in the poll, we had 88 people this time!!! Thank you for participating!(Also thank you to everyone who voted North into THIRD PLACE ππ, I assume most people are like "who's that" and you would not be wrong to do so)I gotta be honest, this is the first thing I've put effort into drawing ...
POLL: let's do this again!
This was really fun last time, so give me a character to wear this outfit! I'll run this until the end of the week. :D(Cecilia won last time so I'll exclude her from this one, she'll be back next time!)
Chapter 8 cover: WIP!!!
I've been returning to work slowly, thank you guys for your patience! It's been nearly a month now since I first got sick and 50% of the time I feel like I'm living inside a panini press. I'm making progress in the chapter though!I wanted to share the WIP of the chapter 8 cover, starring Cameron and Chiaki. The concept was more or less "magazine cover starring the most beautiful couple at the racquetball club who actually fucking hate each other". I promise it'll come together with the finalized typography and colors...
they took my boy's ear!!! and other updates
hi thank you to everyone for your kind words about being miserably sick with covid ... I'm uhhh still not better. Things have been slowly improving but definitely not as fast as I'd like!!! I still haven't been able to work or do much of anything. I've been getting a lot of sleep in though, which has been very nice.ALSO last week Rook had his long-fated EAR TIP AND TOOTH EXTRACTION!!! He's had a big birthmark on his ear that the vet finally wanted to get biopsied and the results were unusual enough they wanted to take the wh...
quick health update!!!!
hiii this is Yuko, heads up I've been dealing with covid since last week and it's been leaving me with pretty intense exhaustion that's leaving me unable to work, I'll do my best to do a more fun update soon!
GUESS WHO'S BACK!! (it's Cerberus)
YAY guess who has a scene in Chapter 8!!!! >:D It was so fun to draw Cerberus again, they're always a treat :D :DI wound up thumbnailing this one myself, you might be able to tell from the detailing on the model image (last one). I think all those Elden Ring comics have seeped into my style a bit and I've become completely enamored with ball hands. I now want every character to have ball hands when they're a certain distance away from the camera. I have been changed, forever. U___UAHH also a bit of good news, the chapter 8 inks are ...
ananth has given me important reference
I received this panel thumbnail from Ananth with an extra layer labeled "VERY IMPORTANT REFERENCE"THANK YOU ANANTH I TRIED MY BEST TO CAPTURE TAILS' ESSENCE
The Minotaur: KS sticker progress
YAY I loved designing the minotaur's sticker! I generally love drawing him, and doing geometric designs is a treat I don't normally have.The concept behind this one was a contained angular spiral, following his right-most arm around his back, down his other arm, up his leg to his face. Something that brings the eye to the head in the center while also giving the idea of something large being constrained. You can see the spiral pattern especially in the original thumbnail sketches.I messed around with a lot of colors for this design, and...
The Gladiator: KS sticker progress
WAH I realized I haven't shared the stickers done for the CH5 kickstarter anywhere! The first several waves of shipping have gone out/been received so I feel like enough people have been sharing pics of their Ch.5 bundles I should be good to share the process for the kickstarter stickers.We let backers vote on the sticker designs and the winners wound up being The Gladiator (Leeds) and The Minotaur (Also Leeds lol) so I got to draw a lot of Leeds eheheThis one was really fun!! I tried to use squares as a motif with limited diagonals and cur...
Barbarous Ch8 Pg. 25 inks!!!
I inked this page on stream so I figured it might be nice to share it over here! This is a nice "transition between scenes" page that doesn't give much away, but it DOES have a really nice example of using Clip Studio 3D models.There's a really excellent library of subways and trains models in CSP, but they tend to be for East Asian subways and trains haha ... so it took some editing to make sure it felt like a proper NYC subway. You can scroll around the screenshots of the page and see what I added to the shot, as well as my fu...
(tears of the kingdom) aaa
HI I'm slowly vibrating through the floor about Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom coming out tomorrow, I read an article that HANDS is one of the major themes of the game and have been feeling very regular about everythingplease no one expect to see me until Monday ok bye
What if I streamed inking Barbarous chapter 8
There's no big spoilers on this page but there ARE a lot of environments, want to help me stay on task?[edit] it's over!! thank you to everyone who came by!!!
Percy in Hyrule: is this turning into a series
- or am I just excited for tears of the kingdom π€this is a continuation of the previous comic (also added to the image set!), this is how that breath of the wild item duplication glitch usually works for me lol... I added the sketch layer in there as well, to show off how super blobby the sketches are for these comics.ANYWAY I FINALLY FINISHED BOTW OVER THE WEEKEND, after playing the game on and off since the middle of last year lol. The game says I've finished 40% of its content, which I assume it means I've found like 10% of the ko...
Percy in Hyrule: oh my god there's more
I'm right at the end of Breath of the Wild and instead of beating the game I've been spending my evenings trying to replicate an extremely goofy item duplication glitch (unfortunately I seem to have a ~70% chance of it crashing the switch lol)I'm sorry what was I supposed to be doing right now, Zelda who
I've succumbed to space madness
someone pointed out that Ganondorf's design from Tears of the Kingdom is obviously inspired by the buddhist deity Fudo Myo-o and I blacked out and woke up like 3 hours later???I tried to pretty much follow only depictions and reproductions of jewelry and garments from buddhist statues (with some fudging with his hairstyle and the magatama on his forehead) and like, ok yeah that's still obviously his design from ToTKanyway this has been me for like 4 days please don't look at me or spend time with me
Tarnished Percy, in Hyrule (2)
OH NO I CAN'T TURN THIS INTO A SERIESto my credit I put together that in BOTW you can put on a bokoblin hat and then just hang out with bokoblins and they'll just follow you around. THAT REMINDS ME OF SOMETHING, BUT WHAT,
Tarnished Percy, in Hyrule
oh no, a new Tears of the Kingdom trailer dropped and after playing BOTW on and off for like 8 months I finally had to do a follow-up to the Elden Ring comics.This was also on the heels of realizing the bokoblin mask is basically this game's stone wolf imp headanyway, sorry everyone, sorry
Chapter 8: Leeds and Ruby paper dolls
Ohohoho here's Leeds and Ruby as they'll appear in Barbarous Chapter 8!Ananth gave me a pretty specific outfit for Leeds in the script notes (Percy has bitten him with the athleisure bug) but he let me do whatever with Ruby so I DID >:D I've been trying hard to give her big 'turn of the century globetrotting cowboy who is also Farrah Fawcett and also The Boss from MGS' vibes. Was I successful, no one can say.
Happy April 1st! (well, march 31st)
We weren't originally going to do a April fools post this year but somehow in the middle of the day today (the day directly before) we came up with an idea so goofy I had to draw it!!!!!Anyway this is a followup to the Leeds bodypillow post from a few years ago lmao... The thing about the Leeds bodypillow was that we were always intending to make them, we just hadn't found a vendor yet when we made the post. This time around, I'm pretty sure I'm the only person who would actually WANT a Cameron bodypillow so uh, don't expect...
oh no Yuko is streaming again
hello I'm inking something secret for tomorrow, a day with no particular importance. Come visit me on twitch, sorry, thank you
