I'm running a mild temperature (SICK AGAIN????? how why how is this possible) so rather than writing some detailed explanatory text to accompany each stage of this gif I'm just gunna... oh god. Oh my god I'm so hot. Body, we had such a nice weekend, there is no logical reason for you to be getting sick. AGAIN.
This is how Matt and I made the first page of the Rumble review that's going up tomorrow. From script, to dropping in text, to pencils, to inks, to colors.

Last year a giiiiant seven-legged spider made a perfect web in our window frame (on the outside of the house). Matt named her Madame Spider.
(Neither of us has any idea how you tell the sex of a spider)
We'd check on her every morning, keeping up-to-date on her web status-- damage, repairs, trapped bugs. We'd hypothesize how she lost her leg. She lived in our window frame for a good long time! And then one day she was gone and, honestly, we missed her. Seven-legged Madame Spider.

Matt and I are absolutely smitten with the porn that Lucie Blush is makin'! It's fun and flirty and just straight up makes me smile (in addition to other, more personal, physical reactions.)

Haha, Matt was so stoked on the response you guys gave to his last process gif that he's gone and made another one for the comic going up tomorrow (Review of Lucie Makes Porn .com) This documents how he colors the comic once I give him my final line work. Maybe I should try making some screencaptures as I layout and draw the comic so he can make one of these things out of my work....
Anyway, Patreon is...

I'm not as sick as I could be, and while I wont feel FANTASTIC tomorrow, I expect I'll be on my feet for a weekend of signing books at VanCaf. This is the second time I've gotten sick this month!

Haha, so remember how I said Matt and I had a big Thing just come through and we'd have to pull some crazy hours to get everything done on time? I expected I'd have a bit of a mental health crash from it, but I forgot that getting physically sick is also a thing my body does when I'm pushed as hard as I can go. On the upside, we got the most immediate of the deadlines done, so woo! On the downside, the last couple weeks in my brain have been not-the-best and then I came down hard with a cold on ...

Portland has been awash in in sunshine, I’ve been biking to work without a coat, I should be fucking stoked, but instead… Dang guys.

Over the years with the help of an awesome therapist and life-changing medication I’ve come to a point where I can mostly keep on functioning parallel to the vitriol that’s thrown in my fa...

Back during my DAR! days I'd give out a free flyer at conventions. The recipient would get a sampler of comics that'd give them an idea of what they could expect in one of the full books and, more often than not, it'd help tip them over into making that purchase. And even if it didn't result in a sale, it was still super effective in getting people to go check out the site. Years later people would tell me they still had the flyer I...
