Poor bub is having a very very not good day.

Update

Apologies for the slow updates this last week or so! My kickstarter pins arrived, and I've been preparing to move house too, so its been a busy time!

The poll suggestions were both really great, so I'm just going to do both for this month! I anticipate my sketchbook being a little smaller, but you'll get some process videos to go with it, as I got an ipad and most of my sketching is recorded!

I'm hoping these pages are hitting the right side of uncomfortable, and not just coming across as unreadable :P!

Charity Case page 34 [anxiety cw]

Oh boy

Charity Case page 33 [anxiety cw] process & high res

Using more of the pinks/blues from the flame to make the uneasy colour contrast again! Also goodbye cohesive page structure, I'll miss you!

Charity Case page 33 [anxiety cw]

It's fine. Totally fine.

I'm always super hyped to find 3D models- the bottom left image is a real cool 3D model of an oven XD, handy!

Again, trying to use the bright pink/red next to the blues to make a kinda...uneasy effect.

ft. Not Noodle, wow!

Trying to make the colours and angles really discordant here!

Julien, filth wizard.

Dancing Queen Title

figured I better make something like this before I posted! I love ageing photos so much :3

(This is set during their last year of university, Jerry is 21, and Sylvia is 22!)

There's the Jerry we know ;)

This is the last page! Thanks for sticking around for it <3

Dancing Queen page 7 high res & process

I feel like the rough colours for these pages are kinda pointless since...its all pretty same-ey, but I guess its good to be consistent with posting them :P

Dancing Queen page 7

Finally!

Spicy tier suggestions

Fan or my characters are both fine! I might not get round to them all, but I'll definitely keep them in mind :).

Specifics are great if you can think of any, and you don't have to be super vanilla or anything dw <3

As with the normal sketch suggestions, you can ask a Q&A style question if you like! (Like...does 'character' like 'insert kinky thing' etc)

Sketch suggestions for monthly poll!

Hey all, drop your suggestions for the poll here! If you can think of specifics (characters doing something etc!) that's great, but no worries if not <3. Fan stuff or my characters are both fine! 

You can also treat it like a Q&A if that floats your boat (like what's Juliens fav food etc)

And if you want to put an old idea up for voting again, or reword stuff, that's also cool! I will try to do more than one if I get chance, and I always keep suggestions in mind for future do...

When I was looking up references I found that picture with the silhouettes on the umbrella- and I figured it would make an interesting picture in the context of Julien feeling like people were judging him? Kinda like talking behind a screen. Also on the final version I amped up the anxiety factor by using chromatic...

I'm gonna have a warning like above for the following pages, so hopefully you can see it from email + decide whether to click or not. Let me know if you think of a better way to do it tho!

Sketchbook June '18

Next month you gotta come and kick my ass if I don't do more studies!

Spicy sketchbook- June '18

Oh boy, a LOTTA little comics here, though the quality is a little rougher! The other sketchbook should be done tomorrow with any luck!

update

hey! I'll probably get the sketchbooks out tomorrow, working on a couple of sketch comic things that ended up...way longer than I intended!

Page overview

I keep wanting to post this on twitter, but I can't zoom enough out to avoid spoilers, so I'm putting it here to hopefully satiate the urge XD. I put them together like this as I make each page to make sure the colours work and stuff!

Dancing Queen page 6 high res & process

The first picture was kinda uncertain so I did a few tries before settling!

Dancing Queen page 6

It's gettin' mushy <3

Also I realised I'd colour picked the wrong part of Sylvia so she's...more tanned for pages 3-5 O-O.

 This 3D bus blew my mind XD https://sketchfab.com/models/8aa6c8b773554ed494a1bb7cb501e0ca I kinda wish I had been more ambitious, I kept the panels verrry cropped so I didn't have to draw too many bus element...

Charity Case page 29

Ok- so from here until page 37 has a big focus on anxiety, which could be triggering to some people! I'll probably put a warning in the titles of each page to be safe.

(You can DM me on twitter if you want to know specifics, I don't want to spoil it publicly.)

Dancing Queen page 5 high res & process

I gotta stop overusing that 3rd panel XD, I've done like 2 other pages with Julien pulling the shock face in the same panel crop size XD

Dancing Queen page 5

Jerry normally when you fall on someones lap its courtesy to get off...
