Colour transitions are always difficult, I gave up with that yellow in the end, it was messing up the colour scheme :P

Charity Case Ch7:Pg4

I've gotten quite a few new patrons recently, and I wanted to say hello, and also to mention that while there currently aren't many exclusive pages, the public updates will be going on chapter break for 3 weeks to mirror the christmas break I took here, so we'll be back to roughly 20 pages ahead on patreon by the time the public break is over! (its a little more complex with early access on tapas, but this should still run at about 13 pages ahead) 

I've been sat infront of my calen...

Charity Case Ch7:Pg1

Hi all, I hope you had a good time over the holiday period! I'm officially back to working on pages now, and I should have an update with actual panels later this week ;P.


(If you don't remember, the last chapter ended with Julien trying to kiss Roman, running away and knocking on Sylvia and Jerrys door!)

Charity Case Ch7 Concepts-2

I actually have less to do than I thought- most of the locations this chapter are ones I don't really need to design because they aren't there for many pages, but here's some of the messy planning for a shop, and a reference sheet and colour planning for Sylvia and Jerrys living room! I realised both the colours for Sylvia and Jerrys jumpers might not actually work with the backgrounds, I've changed Jerrys because it's wayyy too similar to the sofa, but I'm not decided about Sylvias yet! It's...

Lots of fun with this one, I'm enjoying my sketchbook more again after a bit of a slump! (sorry, file didn't attach at first!,)

Rock Tier Sketches- December 2020 [edit, sorry!]

Lots of wives in this one! Also I hope you like clothes because somehow I didn't draw a single fully naked person this month :')


(edit! I forgot to say, this one carries on from a previous sequence with Val/Sylvia/Jerry from here- https://www.patreon.com/posts/rock-tier-april-26537807 ! I'm all over the place today haha, I just went for a walk and my brain must be lagging from the c...

Charity Case Ch7 Concepts-1 [mild spoilers- see description]

A few of these have character designs and clothes that might give a hint about the content of the chapter, just a heads up!

The colours are totally up in the air, since I haven't gotten the background colours decided yet, and they have to work together haha!

Hi all, here's something I was working on in my time off!

 I'm just getting into scripting and concepting chapter 7 of charity case, and I should be able to make the first post on Friday, see you then, and happy new year!!! May this one be a little better than the last.

Hermit and Hiker Test Page & Process (+ some thumbs)

Merry Christmas Eve :O, we've got snow here, I don't remember the last time it snowed this close to christmas day.


I've done SO many tests, but this one was specifically for brush size/text size/detail size, to see how it looks printed at a5 (it worked well!)

I'm only at about page 80 of thumbs, this part is always the hardest. Well- second to scripting maybe! Usually I don't do the extra writing, but I want to get feedback this time around, so it has to be understandab...

Chapter Break/Holiday Announcement!

I'm going on my usual 1-2 week break to get things sorted out before we jump into the next chapter, but I'll also be taking a week for the holiday! I'll keep you all posted, but I'll be back in January :). Thank you all so much for your support, I wouldn't be able to make Charity Case without you!

Not a lot to see here! There was no point drawing the background thrice :P

I got a desktop PC after struggling with an old laptop for years...and I feel like I've done double or triple my usual workload today haha. Loading times are such a timewaster!


However...the colours on my old screen were really dim, so my pages would be really bright when I looked at it from another screen. But now the colours are brighter on my screen I'm struggling to uphold my neon standard :P

Rock Tier Sketches- November 2020

This one's a little smaller than usual, hopefully I'll find some more time next month! It's been quite a tough few weeks, and all I wanted to draw was soft things, so the sfw one is a fair bit bigger haha!

Sketches- November 2020

A bit of a mix this time! I've been getting used to clip studio, and trying out sketching on there :).

Exciting news for me- I'm getting a desktop, so I hope I'll be able to make some videos, or stream in future! I cant wait for photoshop to actually work...it's so laggy....so so laggy. I think about an hour of each day is lost to loading and rendering times :'O.
