I enjoy focusing solely on the comic at the moment.

 I'm curious to observe people's reactions to the increased drama in the story. It's a new experience for me to tackle a substantial storyline in a comic. Additionally, I've begun working on expanding the worldbuilding aspects. 

Currently, I'm developing a map and providing explanations for the symbol that is hang from the tree.

New comic upload schedule

I received good feedback about switching to two pages per week when I asked last week, so I will go ahead with the idea. At least for one month, since I will need to get back to doing commissions soon, or I will be in trouble financially.


So, starting this week, I will upload every Monday and Thursday, at least until the 15th of June.

Depending on how it will go, I'm hoping to maybe find a good way to continue with the two uploads per week.

I like how gay this scene is; it's incredibly adorable <3.

I'm somewhat concerned about explicitly stating what is happening in the dialogue instead of demonstrating it. The general rule is 'show, don't tell,' but I was worried it might feel too unusual otherwise. I'm not entirely sure.

I often find myself conflicted about how much information to convey through dialogue. If anybody has some tips or anything please feel free to let me know.

I gues this page also deserves a slight gore warning since Nugg getting his fur pulled out is kind of brutal, it was heartbreaking to draw at least. 

But I wanted to convey the abuse he went thru and that Copper would help him even at his absolute lowest. 

I was super afraid of this page turning out badly. But in the end I think I did ok. Just had a pretty full week last week and was afraid I would have to rush it but it all worked out. 


Also I will...

Sorry about the late upload today. I've been busy with family this weekend and had to push the comic a bit back. But I'm glad I didn't have to miss the upload entirely.

I normally try to avoid big chunks of text, but I didn't want to be too ambigious in this scene. 

And I also wanted the symbol hanging from the tree to look like it is woven by birds. Just because I don't want things to look too man-made. So most small, crafted things are made by birds.

I didn't think I would get the background right but it really turned out nicely in the end. 

It's sometimes hard for me to dial back the saturated, happy colors and convey a more somber feeling. 

The next few pages will be a bit more story-heavy. I hope that's ok... I'm still kind of new to long storytelling and not just doing a short comic.

Force of Nature Chapter 2 Cover

Sorry for the late upload, I honestly had to finish this today. I started on Friday like always but Easter was keeping me buys visiting family. 


Happy Easter to everyone btw! Hope you had lot's of fun. 

The sketch for the next page can already be found on the last upload for the comic page.

Force of Nature Page 40 / End of Chapter 1

The first Chapter is done HUGE HUGE!! thanks to you guys. 

When I first wrote this and started sketching I was afraid nobody would care about a story with a feral fox and "bunny". I thought only anthro characters would really be interesting to people. 

But I wanted to see these characters in that world and seeing that others want to see them too... I don't know... it changed how I look at the world honestly. I see now I am and we are not alone.

It was hard to get the pose right at first but I really wanted to do that pose. 

And in the end I think it was worth it I love how everything turned out.

For the big background panel with the flowers I used my painting style instead of doing linework-flat colors-shadeing. 

Meaning I took the sketch put some color on a layer beneath it then used adjustment layers and normal layers and painted in lighter and darker values (shadows and lights) as I saw fit and then zoomed in and painted over all the layers to make it clean. I will post a more detailed step by step of this sometime since it's not really easy to explain in text form. It'...

And it's here! Thank you all so so much for your patience <3 <3!

It felt really good to get back to the usual routine of drawing the comic page on the weekend. After weeks of doing it, sometimes it feels exhausting, but after the two week break and working on chapter two it felt really nice to get back to my normal schedule. 

The cool thing is there won't be a break between chapter 1 and 2 now. If there will be any delays I will of course let you guys know.

Commence testing


A quick painted sketch for the most perfect of new pokemon. 

This time I looked at the clock and it took me about 4 hours to draw this with no breaks. It shows when you zoom in that it's very sketchy still but it's ok if you look at it zoomed out I think... 

I kinda have a history with this legendary. Like the normal form. (Don't read this if you cringe easily at teenage edginess)

When I was still a young teen I drew a TON of fanart of it and I made cros...

Sorry guys but I misscalculated how much time I would need for chapter two. I thought I would be quick enough so one weekend would survice but that was kinda dumb of me... Comic stuff is really time consuming especially in the beginning stages I feel. 

But to maybe make up for it a little bit I thought I would share the sketches for the first two pages of chapter two. Wich begins a few days before Copper meets Clover. 

Oh and I also have a new little patreon banner in th...

Ok so the next page update will be on the 6th so the second monday in march. 

A HUGE thank you and big hug for everyone sticking with me! I know it's annoying to have to wait so long, I wish I could magic the pages onto the screen... 

This weekend I wrote down the whole script for the second chapter and also designed some of the new characters. The deer is still very much a WIP hehe. He's way to angry here I think.

The second chapter will follow somebody else Clove...

Gooey Pillow

Watch out it's a huge file size. I always wanted to draw a body pillow design, I really like how thisone turned out. And I thought of also makeing a back side. However, since her body type would be difficult to draw from behind because of the thick tail I was thinking of maybe just doing a cute instead of a lewd pose. Maybe her sleeping or just looking cute.

Do you guys have any wishes? 


Oh and if you want to print thisone for yo...

Hey I have some news regarding the next few uploads. I'm currently writting chapter two and I will have to take some time out of my normal schedule to work on the sketches for the next pages. 

Chapter two will have a bit more story and will also tell you a little more about coppers past. 

So the next page will most likely be out in two weeks so on the 6th of March. If there will be any more delay I will notify you asap. I'm sorry there will be a break bu...

Private Time

This was a commission for a anonymous commissioner. 

They wanted me to change the design for the public version, so I don't have sketches for this one since the sketches included the full design. I've worked with them on multiple big pieces already and they are an absolute joy I'm glad I was able to share some of it with you guys <3 


Also I really like the wholesomeness of this scene.

Unfinished Sketches

A few months ago I had an Idea to make a art set with all of them. But I ran out of time and I really didn't like how some turned out. I would need to rework them definitely.  

Thought it would be a waste to just delete them all... 

Let me know what you think? And if you have a fave I should finish.
