Here's the WIP sketch to page 6.

Enjoy! :)

Wishes 2 pg. 5.

Here's the finished page 5 :)

And as you can see, both the battle and the war was won by the boar :D

I'll have to be completely honest, I'm REALLY proud how this page turned out. It's full of unusual perspectives and poses, yet I didn't struggle at all with them. I enjoyed drawing them, and somehow they really turned out looking very natural. So I can safely say that over all these years making comics, this one is one of my favorite pages I've ever done :)

March Q&A with Estella and Evie

Another month, another chance for a brand new Q&A, so let's get started! :D

You can ask Estella and Evie, or other characters from my comics, or even me here in the comments, and I'm going to chose a few one to answer with a very simple little sketch. So ask anything you like, and remember, you can have as many questions as you'd just like :) And don't worry if your question wasn't answered, you can ask them again next time :)

You can ask your questions until ...

March Sketch Suggestions

Hi guys! :) Here is another month, so it's time to gather your ideas again :)

Feel free to post things about your ideas and suggestions here in the comments. You can post ideas, references, ANYTHING you’d just like. I’m going to pick from your ideas (I don’t know how many, sometimes, more, sometimes less), and maybe this way I’ll be able to make more sketches every month, and maybe you'll like them more too. If I do one of your ideas, then the sketch will be ded...

February Vote Winner

And here it is, the winner of the last sketch vote :)

You can expect the usual progression streams/pictures/videos soon ;)

Stroll in the Summer Heat

And here's the finished vote winner.

So the "beehuahua" wasn't included in the original sketch, but I felt I just HAVE to add the little guy to the picture. For one reason, he looks adorable, and adds to Alma's "spoiled royal" personality. On the other hand, it gives a reason for Alma to leave the nice and cold castle in such a hot summer day: her cute little sugarmuffin needs a walk :D

And I love how that character on the left side of the picture looks like he was squeezed to the...

Tree of Life - Book 0. pg. 6. [WIP]

Here's the WIP sketch to page 6.

Enjoy! :)

Tree of Life - Book 0. pg. 5.

Here's the finished page 5.

So here you can see the very first occasion when this little baby marks Luna as her own. A bit later there will be puke, pee and poop as well. Because babies always make sure they marked their parents well :D But maybe Luna knows what she's up against. Maybe.

Drawing water is though... XP

Here are the finished flats for the vote winner.

By the way, that guy on the left looks like he was clenched between the rhino guy and the  edge of the page XD

Exclusive Sketch #371

"Dhani and Sarnell"

This was a simple gender bending suggestion, but man, I just love those! :D It's always so interesting turning a character into another gender while still keeping all of it's characteristics. I already made a little "tutorial" in this topic some time ago. It's almost completely finished, I just didn't have the time to make the last touches on it. Maybe soon though...

Tree of Life - Book 0 pg. 5. [WIP]

Here's the WIP page of page 5.

Enjoy! :)

Tree of Life - Book 0 pg. 4.

Here's the finished page 4.

I really like how the last panel turned out. I think it really adds to the atmosphere. And somehow I really love making round windows :D

Enjoy! :)

Exclusive Sketch #370

"Back Massage"

This was a very simple, but very cute suggestion. Shen giving a nice back massage for his love :)

Stroll in the Summer Heat [WIP] pt. 1.

Here's the finished lineart to the last vote winner.

I'm sure you noticed that I added something new to the picture. I was really disappointed that I didn't include Alma's beehuahua in the first place... But I quickly fixed that :3 I think it really adds to the comical nature of the picture, that she's really just taking a walk with her dog in the summer heat :D

Wishes 2 pg. 4. [WIP]

Here's the WIP sketch to page 4.

Wishes 2 pg. 3.

And here it is, the finished page 3 :)

I'm quite happy how her pubes turned out, because I still need some thinking to get them "right."

Enjoy! :)

Exclusive Sketch #369

"New Jewels"

I don't know how many of you know, but I just recently upgraded my tablet to a newer, better version, and the very first thing I drew with it was this picture :) I was thinking what picture would fit the best to celebrate this new tablet. And I couldn't think of a better one than a cute pic with Zaphira :)

And I really like this picture. I wanted to make something cute with her, and concentrate on her feet. Because Zaphira's colorful soles are just too cute :D And I w...

Exclusive Sketch #368

"Mad Drama Llama"

So the suggestion was about Rah'Jan, and how would he look with meat and skin on his face. I liked the idea, but I didn't want to "grow" his horns back, because as the suggestion said, I just wanted to give him a real face. But after finishing him like this, I realized that without horns, he looks more like a llama than a goat :D (That's where the title came from.)

Hope you like it :)

Tree of Life - Book 0. pg. 4. [WIP]

Here's the WIP sketch to page 4.

Enjoy! :)

Tree of Life - Book 0. pg. 3.

And here it is, the finished page 3.

This page really turned out bittersweet. I'm happy, because that was what I wanted to achieve :) And I just realized that this was the very first time (or I think it was) when I drew a baby and a very old person as well :D

Sorry for the delay gain, and thank you for your patience :)

Small Tree of Life Delay

I'm sorry, guys, but it seems you'll have to wait a bit more to see the next Tree of Life page, because as it turned out I won't be able to finish it today. But don't worry, you only have to wait until tomorrow, so I hope you won't mind this little delay.

Thank you for your understanding!

Wishes 2 pg. 3. [WIP]

Wishes 2 pg. 2.

And here is the second finished page to Wishes :)

I'm so glad we could put some comedy  in the comic, it's always such a joy to draw things like that :D

February Q&A

So here are the February Q&A pictures. I hope you like them, because with the third one I was so disgusted, I literally had a hard time finishing it. But that was my intention in the first place, so mission accomplished I guess...?

Exclusive Sketch #367

"Year of the Rat"

So this was (kinda) suggested by two people. It's the year of the rat, and I still haven't drawn enough pretty rat lady, so why not :) And maybe the whole picture turned out a bit more japanese than chinese, but lately I'm just in love with kimonos... XP

Tree of Life - Book 0. pg. 3. [WIP]

Here is the WIP sketch to page 3.

Enjoy! ^^

Tree of Life - Book 0. pg. 2.

I must say I'm very proud of how the first page turned out!

I added a few things that I didn't plan to in the first place, because I didn't know how to do them yet. When days ago I planned in my mind how the page would look like, I didn't expect how many other things it needed to look “complete”. But in the end I think I figured out everything to make the page really fit well with the characters and the mood. I'd like to share some of my realizations that led me to the result. The s...

Tree of Life - Book 0. pg. 1.

And here is the very first page of the Tree of Life comic :) We felt we just have to share a few though with everyone who intends to read this comic, so we wrote a preface to it. So let this page talk right now instead of me :D
