Information moving forward...

Hello everyone! June was the last month that any payments would be processed for this page. I'm still deciding on when/how I want to wrap up the Patreon itself though, as I'm not usually one to delete an entire archive of stuff or get rid of an account.

EDIT: Going to leave the account up for July in case people need to contact me, then I will be putting it into "sleep mode" more or less, but it won't allow folks to contact me then so now is your time to unpledge or to ...

Chapter 11, PDF Download!

Here's the PDF for Chapter 11 for easy viewing on PC or mobile, and includes the statement I made a few days ago.

The PDF with even more art and some other lore stuff will still need some time and planning.

Thanks for your support everyone!

I'll be at Sakura-con this weekend! (Seattle, WA)

Come say hi to me this weekend and maybe buy some merch? This is my first time tabling at Sakuracon so I'm very nervous but also very excited! Let's make this a great weekend!

I've got plenty of other cons I'm going to this year too, list is here: https://www.darkchibishadow.com/convention-scheduale

No Spacemas Event this year!

Life is just too busy this year, so I think I'm gonna skip Spacemas! Sad, but I'll still be making my usual holiday pictures, I just don't  really have the time/brain space to organize anything super formal. Hope that's understandable!

BUT, if anyone wants to send in X-mas themed guest art to post in  December though, I will gladly accept it and boost whatever you want me  to boost. ^u^/ Mini-Spacemas, haha.

August is here!

Hello everyone! Just a small update post to say that the new password for the After School Club site is in your mailbox right now, so go check it out! (And, commission tier Patrons should have messages about that reward too!)

There's some interesting stuff on the After School Club about how I'm working with my new inker, and some cute art. Check it out!

Also, I'm proud to announce this Patreon is finally a decent amount ahead of public updates again and we're hoping to keep it th...

Delays due to sickness (Oops, got COVID for the first time after 2 years of not!)

Yep, as you may have seen around social media, I got COVID-- despite always keeping up on my mask wearing (I never stopped, and I recommend you don't stop either, we *are* in a wave right now) I was a fool and slipped up too much.

So, I'm taking time to recover, I'm still quite sick and I suspect it'll take me some time to get *fully* well, especially because it's been so sooo so difficult for me to eat. (Which wears on me mentally a lot.)

I was already going to take Space School ...

Thinking of trying for a new milestone!

So, with any luck, this chapter will be complete this month! But, I may take June off from updates to catch up on some other stuff and prepare the  next chapter? I'm a little burnt out at the moment, so a few projects  are just harder to get going than others.

Honestly wish I could hire an assistant (with inking) to help finish off the rest of what we have for Space School, but I just don't have that kind of budget and I think it might be too late in the project to try to get ...

New Chapter 4 PDF is available!

Hello everyone! I'm still slowly, slowly widdling away at old pages to put in bigger text and edit some things to be slightly smoother. Everything is otherwise exactly the same, but now it's just a lot easier to read on mobile devices which is like, so important if this comic wants a longer life than it already has LOL
(I do think the edits encourage new readers, cuz the comic does still get new readers now and again hehe)

Working on Space School, Page 434 - Inking and Coloring Process (2018)

A process video from way back in 2018!  It's neat to see how far the style for Space School has come, though I feel this year was a particular good one for the comic, this era of pages is still cute as heck.

My Youtube is gonna be uploading a lot of videos in the coming month because I finally worked through my archive of recordings, haha. Feels nice to finally use them for something-- though I plan on maybe uploading other types of videos too, hehe.

Thanks everyone! Consider...

Drawing my characters, Alkaline + Zeggy! (Chibi Speed Draw - 2017)

Hey all! I've been finally compiling some old videos I have of myself drawing-- and the one that went up today was of Alkaline and Zeggy!

Another slightly crunchy video, I think these older recordings are just  like that-- which I think is fine, it kind of captures the feeling of,  "Ah, this image is kind of older now." don't you think? Heh, or maybe  that's just me.  This picture is still very cute. Alkaline and Zeggy are always fun to  draw, and I believe I dr...
