Unprompted Selfie
I got a new sweater and I think I look cute in it.
Lilith concept art
I drew these almost two years ago just to make sure I had the look right. For those wondering, Asmodea has always been written as a trans character from their first appearance in I believe 2011. I think it's clear in hindsight, but obviously for plot reasons it wasn't explicitly stated until now.I'm a big fan of patience in storytelling, it's better to sit on a big reveal for a decade if you think it's going to pay off right. I didn't anticipate this development being so personal back in 2011, but hey that's life.

One of those times
I frequently attempt new painting/workflow techniques to speed up my comic-drawing process and this time around it's one of those instances where it's failed completely. Not that this current page is ruined, but that it's ended up taking almost twice as long as usual. I'm trying not to get too frustrated because at least now I've learned not to try this particular process again?

Dark Science, Ranma Style!
