Fungus Farm

It could be said that nothing grows in Kuserra.  Anyone that says that is only mostly correct.

It's true that living, photosynthesizing plants are rare enough in the city to be thought completely extinct, however mosses, molds, lichens, and breeds of fungus CAN be found in certain places of the city, if you know where to look for them.

The same toxins in the soil that prevent most plants from growing also get absorbed by these fungi, however, so they make for a terri...

Just one more patron and I get to let you guys vote on the next character to be added to the Character page!

Yeah, I kinda already jumped the gun on it before when I added Riley, but it's been awhile so whatevs!

And while we're on the topic, for anyone that doesn't know, Patreon rolled out an annual subscription model a while back to allow for l...

Whoops, forgot to remove Riley#3 from Early Access (fixes).

Comic this week?:  Honestly? I'm not sure.  There's a lot of work still to do on this page and not a lot of time left for me to do it.  It ended up being a super busy week and weekend... I didn't even manage to get a sketch out on Friday when I was planning to catch up on Kuserran Heroes. Weeks do be like that sometimes.  >.<  As always, I will try, but if I can't quite get it don...

Hoping this page will give like... a better idea of how large that blast zone is... and more importantly, how far away it is from a certain someone we all know.

First I'd like to welcome our newest Landlord-tier patron, Jesse!  Thank you so much!

I'm not sure I've mentioned the fact that we put our ad back up on FA, so we're likely to see another influx of new patrons as a result... which means I need to stop slacking off and hammer out that character sheet queue so I can be sure to thank you all properly for your generosity and your support!

Comic this week: Yes!

Below the Surface

Still struggling to motivate myself on Fridays, but here, have a sketch!

A glimpse into Kuserra's underground, perhaps just beneath the surface in some part of the greater city region.

Fun with lighting and "camera" angles!  Also, who is this mysterious figure in the firelight?  Keeping a tight lid on it now, but hiding his appearance on this page was a lot of fun.

Gasp!  Two sketches two Fridays in a row?  And this one is even shameless colored Max fanservice?

I dunno, lol, Max is still so hard to draw.  That's why I need to practice!

Kuserra is still burning, btw.  In Kiva's story, at least.

Like I said, I'm pretty eager to get back to Kiva's story at this point, but Riley's story is only getting started, and it will continue.

Also, my husband got us new computers this weekend, and while I don't expect any interruption of what I do or how I do it, transitioning to a new machine always has some hitches.  The IMPORTANT things pertaining to my arts and comics are about 95% moved over.  Red...

Taking this week off from regular posts to catch up doing some work on Volume 1 and also to spend some time doing some worldbuilding.

Comic this week?  No, for reasons above.

Drawing: Touching up pages for Volume 1, and starting work on Page 142.

Playing: V Rising and WoW.

I didn't get quite as far as I would have liked, but we'll definitely be revisiting Riley's story in the future.  I hope you're enjoying what I've done so far.

Also sorry it's late, these have apparently ended up being far more work than drawing regular comics, because layers, producing two what are supposed to be entirely readable versions of the same story, etc.

This morning... I poured water... into the coffee grinder.

Why?  I don't know.  I was going about my regular routine, my husband was telling me about his weekend camping trip... I was on autopilot and was about to fill the coffee machine as per usual, like I have done every single morning for the past ~six years.  The coffee machine was all prepared to receive the water, I had already done all that needed to be done for it.  Instead, I took the lid off the coffee gri...

Comic This Week:  Honestly I don't know.  This week has been full of distractions and time-wasters, I didn't even realize it was Monday and I'm pretty far behind.  I'd hate to miss a week, though.  Not right now when I don't have a halfway decent excuse I can rely on.  I'm gearing up to sacrifice sleep if I need to in order to get it done.
