Friction on the Dance Floor - Page 1

Into the new adventure! We find Cliff, Eli and Jonah hitting Cliff's favorite bar BJ McSkeevy's! only to quickly pivot to Verve, the bar across the street.

This page took me entirely too much time to draw, all the little details really added up. Now I'm about to draw the guys in a crowded nightclub. Pray for me.

(borrowed a poster from @Kevynwithy who draws "Glitz" a colorful musical artist who has appeared in the Cabaret Bara universe, so I figured we must all be in the same ...

Friction on the Dance Floor - Preview 1

Starting us out, a lot happens as we join our trio hitting the bars downtown. We quickly pivot from BJ McSkeevy's to "Verve" the bar across the street, and find our characters falling into some dangerous places.

Eli McKaber in Friction on the Dance Floor - Cover (WIP)

It's that time again! An advance preview just for our upper level members! Starting into a new full-color, feature-length story of Eli, Cliff and Jonah going out on the town, where things quickly go awry.
(Aspects of this design/character design are subject to change. Like that guy immediately behind Eli? probably not going to look anything like that.)

Adventures of Eli McKaber: ...There's Fire

In this connecting comic, we learn a little more about the fire at Eli's building and who's investigating it, and we set off on a new adventure into Woodport after dark.

NEXT: Eli McKaber in Friction on the Dance Floor

...There's Fire. - Page 3

This page concludes the connecting comic and the next pages will be in full color for the next story. I'll post again tomorrow to have all the pages in one place and listed on the master list.
Are you excited for the next adventure?

...There's Fire. - Page 2

On this page we get a closer look at the exact scene of the blaze in Eli's building, and get left on another cliffhanger.

...There's Fire - Page 1

Aaaand we're back. Jumping back into present day, at the scene of the fire at the Hilltop Apartments, we meet Fire Investigator Quinn Chen. Wonder what the Fire Captain will have to tell him...

Adventures of Eli McKaber - Chpt. 1 Recap

Listen, there's been a lot of content over the last 5 years of doing this, I wouldn't blame you if you forgot characters or important plot points, so lets make it a little simpler. Here's Eli himself stepping you through what happened in Chapter 1, so you can start into Chapter 2 (starting with the "Where There's Smoke..." prologue) with context that should help you.

Patreon also gets the NSFW variations on the cover for this if you wanna see Eli's dick a few extra times, (you can see...

Eli McKaber - Reference Sheet (WIP)

Working on a new way of recounting past story events so I can catch people up on what's happened in the story in a more easily digestible format. Planning to clean these up and have Eli sorta tell his story alongside text blocks with occasional clips from past adventures. Hope you enjoy the sketch!

AoEMK - ...There's Fire. (Preview)

Okay folks, so thank you for your patience, I have not been delivering at a pace I'm comfortable with (I want to get you more content than this) but I'm getting closer to being able to churn stuff out now that a lot of planning is done.
That being said, slight change of plans:
Initially I was planning to have a brief foray into Woodport be a part of our segue comic (sepia tone, story-heavy comics that tie the larger stories together) but the adventure at the club is looking much more l...

March Updates!

Here's a preview page for everyone for being so patient. I've got 10 pages of the next comic sketched up but it's not totally finished yet (probably closer to halfway blocked out) just so you know there's content coming I'm just working on it. Once I've got the base blocking done upper level patrons will get the first 4 pages of sketches.

I've also been debating revisiting Sauna Surprise to give it a better and longer story with more gym hi-jinks and updated artwo...

Dresden File - Tyler Buchannan

Tyler is an excellent supporting character in our little storyline, giving off the innocent and chill vibe, anyone who digs a little deeper finds out he's a freak just like everyone else in this crazy town.

What's Next? - Patreon Exclusive

Hey there everybody,

Now that Sleeping on a Secret is over, I'm trying to do a few little projects I'd been putting off. I'll hopefully have more to share on those soon, including next pages for the upcoming segue comic. In the meantime I'd like to make an exclusive illustration for Patreon, so it's that time again, who would you like to see depicted. We did Eli and Cliff last time, so we'll discount them this time.
Let me know in the poll below!

Eli McKaber in Sleeping on a Secret

Eli thinks he's participating in your standard sleep study, but soon finds he's not going to be sleeping at all. Featuring Prof. Summer from Woodport 101, Dr. Morgan from Going Off-Track, and Dresden from the Dresden Fil...

Eli McKaber in Sleeping on a Secret - Page 20

Finally done! What did you think of this story overall? Do you like the sexy bits? Like the world-building mystery we're getting a peek at? Think I totally bungled it? Let me know! I love to have feedback.

also went back and added some background details to the previous page, don't read into them too much, I just wanted to flesh out some Falluhs details but I realize I made the guy in the ad look a little too much like professor Summer.

Anyway, now that this comic is done, I'v...

Eli McKaber in Sleeping on a Secret - Page 19

On the penultimate page, we find out something else is going on behind the scenes.
Might make some minor edits to this one, just some additional background detailing I don't have the energy for at the moment.

I've been on vacation the last few days but occasionally have been able to get a little work done on this. Hope to have the last page completed shortly so we can get to what comes next in the story!

Thanks as always for your patience. Hope you enjoy the thickening of t...

We reach our climax and everyone gets where they're going.
Debating if the page could use an "exclamation" from someone or if I should keep it silent. What do you think? Who would you want to be in this sticky sandwich?

Eli McKaber in Sleeping on a Secret - Page 17

Damn, being the center point in a sexy sandwich isn't enough, Eli decides to take on the challenge of getting double stuffed, and now we're all a page away from the climax. Eli's goon face here is one of my favorites.

Thank you for your patience with this latest page! There were a few aspects that slowed me down.

• Didn't know how I wanted to depict the final panel (dunno that I love what I landed on, but this was the fastest way forward)

• Drawing 4 people in...

Eli McKaber in Sleeping on a Secret - Final Preview

Eli, Dresden, Dr. Morgan and Prof. Summer all reach the conclusion of their experiment. With the blessing reinforced, it's a job well done, but maybe it's not welcome news to everyone?

Thanks everyone for your support during this story! I hope you enjoyed this latest chapter and I'm excited to explore even more in upcoming episodes! Stay tuned!

Eli McKaber in Sleeping on a Secret - Page 16

Uh oh! Professor Summer is awake and Doctor Morgan enters the fray!

The sketch version of the final 4 pages of this comic should publish tomorrow. Just cleaning up a bit of the harder to follow parts of the sketches. The episode is almost in the can! Hope you're enjoying the ride!

Sorry if there's been a bit of a slow-down, I've had some personal demands on my time and it's given me less time to work on my drawing. I appreciate your patience as I spend the time I can to make pro...

Eli McKaber in Sleeping on a Secret - Page 15

Eli and Dresden in position, looks like sleeping beauty can't quite keep his eyes closed anymore.

(edit: added bloom effect to the lamp and under-lighting throughout)

Eli McKaber in Sleeping on a Secret - Page 14

This page has some of my favorite panels in the comic. Eli is a cutie in panel 2, looks so excited in panel 3, panel 5 I think captured that expression of bearing down, and the last panel is hot and cute at the same time. Hope you get the same kick out of it that I did!

Eli McKaber in Sleeping on a Secret - Page 13

There there Dresden, Eli's got another idea...
Page 14 is already lined and colored just have to shade and light it so that should be coming out soon as well. Hope everyone is enjoying the holiday season!

Eli McKaber in Sleeping on a Secret - Preview #4

Things don't go according to plan for Dresden, but it's not all bad. Eli has an alternate opportunity for him. And how exactly is Professor Summer still aslee-... oh wait. Nevermind.

Eli McKaber in Sleeping on a Secret - Page 12

Time to switch! Get that twink in the ring! Preview for the penultimate 4 pages is coming shortly for upper level patrons. Thanks as always for your support!

Merry Christmas from Eli, Cliff, and Buddy

For many people its a rough holiday season. I hope you and yours are able to find peace and community this year. Bonus sketch page included just for Patrons. Thanks as always for your support!

Eli McKaber in Sleeping on a Secret - Page 11

Well that says a mouthful doesn't it? Luckily Dr. Morgan will explain himself on the next page.
Thanks as always everyone for your continued patience and patronage!

Tales From Woodport - 015

Eli and Cliff play video games together like normal roommates, but Cliff can tend to get a tad competitive. Thanks again to my upper level patrons for your patience. This one is just for you!
A new page of the comic book should be available in the next few days.

Okay! Okay! Lets press pause.

As Dr. Morgan suggests, perhaps I should try to take a beat and work on something else for a minute. I know at the moment the "exclusive" works on Patreon have mostly been sketch pages that will ultimately go public in their final forms, so I'm itching to do something JUST FOR YOU.

I can either do an illustration or another Dresden File (which also comes with an illustration). So let me know which ...

Eli McKaber in Sleeping on a Secret - Page 10

As a big fan of oral dedication, I had a lot of fun drawing this page. Hope you enjoy the sloppy mess I made!

Side note: I didn't realize I'd forgotten to draw Eli's tattoo on his arm in the handful of pages where it appears. So I've edited the correct pages on the full comic book post.
