Next Comic ETA: August 22nd-ish, 2025
(Current Stream Plan: Tuesdays: 5PM (EST).
Comic is mainly done but once again its down to me fussing with trying to find a good balance of background details. That sweet spot of looks good with comic/not making the comic feel too busy/not spending hours on details that will be covered and knowing when to dial it back. There's a high chance the comic may be done tomorrow depending on the weather. But feeling confidentish I'll have it up this Friday.
Been trying to find a nice balance in regards to using the tablet. One of the things I've really wanted to get back into is drawing the characters more full body and a bit of scene stuff...but I forget everytime just how much lost in the sauce I like to get when it comes to rendering background elements. At some point I'm going to figure out that nice sweet spot between reasonable output and reasonable quality, and boy howdy it wasn't this update.
That said! I did learn a few neat things...mostly because half the art process is going "oh hey this could look cool. How can I make it look right?" and spending 4 hours smacking a program around trying to get the effect you mentally visualized.
I think looking back the comics I regret most were ones I knew I had a really cool visual idea but I was so stressed to make deadline that I ended up dropping details or concepts just cause I wanted to get the update done on time. Which isn't to say those updates were terrible...but deep in my minds eye I knew they could have been gorgeous as well.
Gonna keep pushing to get myself back to an update a week but we shall see how this summer marathon of heat and suffering continues!
Till next time!
