Recently revisited some old art for the new Volume 1 book.
I included the original art here just for fun (although it makes me cringe into a tiny ball like a mortified pill bug). It was actually one of the very first Lackadaisy pieces I did.
Shot glass sets have arrived at last. They are in Chicago at Iron Circus HQ and will start shipping out to fulfill orders shortly.
If you ordered one, thank you sooo much for your patience! Can't wait to get these into people's hands!
(If you've had an address change since placing a pre-order, please check your inbox for an email from Iron Circus about updating your shipping info.)

Rough animation by Squiderdoodle! This is in early phases still and undergoing some adjustments, but thought it was already pretty fun to look at!

This is some of the title art we did for the Phantom Bootlegger mini-comic dub. We had fun leaning pretty heavily into the Edward Gorey look. (Ashe Wagner did the cranial phantom himself, I did the rest.)
This premiers tomorrow afternoon, but...
Happy Halloween, everyone!

Hello all,
The next stream will be this Friday, October 29th, starting at 4pm CT (5pm ET/2pm PT) at my Twitch Channel!
I'll likely be working on an assortment of things, including back cover art for a book, a mini-comic still in progress and some Patron art. Some of the animation crew will probably be there, working and chatting too!
I hope I'll see ...
We've been compiling a new set of animation previews for a panel at BLFC in Reno this coming weekend, so I thought I'd share this modified version of it. (It has some extra things in it that only Patrons get to see at this time.)
------------------------
If it so happens you'll be at BLFC or near Reno Oct 21-24, you can stop by Dealer's Den Table 46 to catch up with 2021-10-20 21:12:57 +0000 UTC View Post
Just a look at Asa's office for the animated film, and the process that goes into creating these types of backgrounds.
Fable and I scratched out the initial color concept, featuring some toothy art deco meant to reflect some of the scene's story content. This was followed by some 3d layout art by Eran Fowler and 2021-10-18 21:50:37 +0000 UTC

New art for the new Lackadaisy Volume 1 book, slated to print sometime in the second half of 2022.
Also included are the thumbnail sketches for the set of books approved by Iron Circus. (Volume 2 isn't settled yet, but going for a single character motif for the front of each book.)
If anyone is interested in desktop background/wallpaper versions of this and the Essentials cover, I'll make them available!
Got so many things on the burner now in various stages of completion. Wi...

Animation + crew chat tonight. Feel free to join us!

It's the inspirational poster you'll find hanging up in the HR department at studio headquarters. Nothing motivates a team like fire and brimstone. It's also a convenient way to hide that cavernous hole in the drywall.
More truthfully, it's some new art for a print that'll be available at BLFC in Reno later this month. Some of the Lackacrew will be there and will be putting on a panel about indie animation-making!
I'll have this up in the store soon too.

Today, the Lackacrew is getting together live with Jello Apocalypse (Brendan Blaber) to discuss Epithet Erased and the concept of creating a series independently.
If that's of interest to you, please feel free to join us and bring any questions you might have with you!

Hello all,
The next Patron-only livestream will be this Thursday, September 30th, starting at 6pm CT (7pm ET/4pm PT) at my Twitch Channel.
I'll be working on some Patron art and a mini-comic I've been trying to slip in between other tasks. Likely some of the crew will be there for chatting too. Bring questions if you have them!
As always, I hope I'll...
Design intended for an eventual t-shirt. Not sure exactly what I'm going to do with the backdrop yet, but it's getting there!

Just a little compilation of in-progress Mordecai animation.
Work here by Staraptures, Sabina Kipa, Sam Staehler, and Iscoppie!
Hey all,
It's been a while since we've done one of these! The Lackacrew will be hosting a live chat event this weekend and, looks like we may have some special guests popping by too.
We'll be doing some open canvas drawing, playing games like Gartic Phone and doing as much Q&A as we can fit in, so I hope you'll see fit to join us!
When:
Sunday, September 19th
7pm ET / 4pm PT

Some artwork done for an upcoming collection of mini-comic dubs. (You might be able to guess which ones.)
You can watch a Patron preview for one of them here, in case anyone's interested!
Here's a direct link to the art, in case it's hard to view through Patreon.
Well, with the exception of publisher technicalities, like generating the front matter publication information, the art book is done. I think. Done, unless the printer finds something horribly wrong with my layout, but I've been sharing progress with them at intervals for a long while now to...

One of the new pieces I did for the Essentials art book. The band doesn't have their own entry on the Character page of the Lackadaisy web site, but that seemed like it needed to be addressed. They do have a dedicated page in the book!

Hey everyone,
The next Patron-only stream will be this Sunday, August 29th, starting at 6pm CT (7pm ET / 4 pm PT) at my Twitch Channel.
I'll be doing some last, lingering touchups to the art book, and probably some Patron art too. Fable will be there as well, streaming s...
This is some of the Act 3 stuff we've only let Patrons see so far.
Fable's been doing a lot of Rocky animation this month. Our daily workday voice chats have been full of Michael K's righteous/riotous laughter and poetry on repeat. It's been a time...

Just a couple of pages of Arbogast things for the art book!

Drawing was originally a Shikishi art board sketch, but I added some extra nonsense to thank the Lackadaisy Discord members for such a kind, thoughtful, bizarre pile of birthday drawings and wishes. It really made up for my lack of birthday pie (and well and truly made me tear up). ❤
Hey all,
We're doing a sort of impromptu stream day while working today (Wednesday, August 4th). Fable will be animating while I do some book layout work. Feel free to join us for a good chat!

Some more layout work from the art book. Haha...these are a challenge.
Mordecai's is a two page spread. The others will share a single page within the book.
Fun with OCs. A selection of recent Patron things!
