Queen Of The Sea - Preview

Hello there!

My first Tale Of Terror is now complete! Next week on Friday 13th, the first part will be posted early, here on Patreon.

Thanks to your generous support, I've been able to hire an audio producer to add a soundtrack to this comic. Mr. Kyle from The Technicolor Theatre Of The Ear has done a wonderful job, helping me bring the story to life. And there will be a voice reveal... kind of :)

This little comic has been a labour of love and I can't wait to share it with ...

Pretty In Pink?

Pink is not my favourite colour and I always avoid wearing it... but after recently donning a pink dress to play Sheila in my D&D comic, I was pleasantly surprised how much the colour popped on camera.

So, I'm just testing this new outfit for a new fall-themed comic. What do you think about pink?

Hello October 🍂

Hello there,

Autumn/Fall is my favourite season - the beautiful colours in nature, cosy nights in and the promise of Christmas on the horizon are some of the many reasons I love this time of year!

I think October is a particularly exciting month as it ends with Halloween 👻 So to celebrate this, my comics are going to reflect the spooky season. Here's a suitably seasonal pin-up to set the tone...

Q&A Answers

A huge thank you to everyone who took part in my first ever Q&A! I received about 20 questions which I’ve separated into work-related and personal queries. I’ve done my best to answer each one as honestly and fully as possible. Antonio’s first up…

A great question to start with Antonio, thank you for that. I was planning to record my responses to your questions, but s...

Queen Of The Sea - Poll Result

Hello there,

Thank you for voting in my Vivid Or Vintage poll earlier this week. It was a fairly close result, but Vintage was the most popular choice with 58%

I'm currently working on part five and I'm adding lots of detail to this strip, (see the sea above) so please bear with me! I want to complete the whole story before I post the first part, just in case I need to make any continuity adjustments to the earlier panels.

It should all be finished next week, so expect the f...

Poll - Vivid Or Vintage

I'm halfway through my 'Queen Of The Sea' comic and I'm starting to output the completed panels - I'm wondering whether to apply a filter to make the comic look more vintage, but I can't decide if I prefer the desaturated look or the original vivid colours. So, over to you chaps... which do you prefer?

Jinkies! Velma Cosplay Test Shots

Here are a couple of camera tests for my new Velma cosplay - my hair's a little long, but I'm happy with the overall look.

I'm planning a spooky Velma cosplay comic for October, so more photos coming soon!👻🎃

'Milquetoast'

Here's a silly little strip based on a fun fact I learned just last week. This etymology may be common knowledge in the US, but I'd never heard of this character before and it's been a delightful discovery.

The Timid Soul is a beautifully drawn comic, created by an artist who conquered his disability and didn't give up ✍️

Also, if you haven't tried milk toast, I highly recommend it as an autumnal treat - recipe included. Yum!😋

Questions & Answers

Hello there,

I'm planning to make a Patron's Q & A video at the end of this month, so I need your questions!

You can ask me anything - what's my shoe size, why do I wear gloves, who is my favourite Pokemon, or something more interesting... 

Just leave your question in the comments below or send me a direct message - and if you're a very curious fellow, feel free to ask multiple questions :)

I shall endeavour to answer them all. Thank you!

'Queen Of The Sea' - Work Begins...

Hello there,

Today, I started work on my first 'Tale Of Terror' - here's a sneaky peek at some random panels from part one. This strip will be serialized into 6 parts, each one the length of a regular Totty comic.

The tone will be very different from my usual comics, with lots of melodrama and plenty of spooky shadows. The story is inspired by a 1955 Strange Mysteries comic - I've made a few changes to the plot but I'm planning to keep a lot of the original corny narration and dia...

Dragon's Dungeon - Work In Progress

Hello there,

I've been working on the D&D comic strip for the last few days - it's taking me a little longer than expected due to the extra background details and bits of animation, but it's almost done and should be completed later this week :)

Here are some preview panels - there's lots of sneaking around, some slithery tentacles and it wouldn't be Dragon's Dungeon without a fearsome, fire-breathing dragon🐲🔥

Also, you may have noticed a new Collections tab at the...

Tales Of Terror - Poll Result & Distressed Dress

Hello there,

If you voted in my Tales Of Terror poll on Tuesday, thank you for taking part :) The results are in and Queen Of The Sea was the clear favourite, with 69%😊 of the vote. Where Wolf was second with 21% and The Face Of Terror wasn't scaring anyone, with just 10%

I'm personally delighted with the result - this terrifying tropical tale is my favourite too! So, late last night, I started work on my costume... 

I recently bought a dre...

Dragon's Dungeon - Bottomless Pit

Here's another completed panel from my interactive D&D comic - I've removed the text to avoid spoilers :)

This is one the perils you'll need to avoid, a bottomless pit - although, I suppose it's not completely bottomless as my bottom's in it!

I'm really trying to push myself with this comic, adding more detail to the backgrounds along with a few looping animations. Hopefully it'll be worth the extra effort :)

I wasn't sure how to animate the cape at first. In the end, I ...

'Library LOL'

In space, no one can hear you laugh...😄

After receiving feedback from a number of Patrons who want to read my comics but don't have an Instagram account, I've decided to continue posting them on Patreon. To minimise the impact of leaks and reposts, the comics will be uploaded to IG later on the same day, but you'll still get to see them first on Patreon.

Totty's Tales Of Terror - Poll

As we approach October, (the spookiest month of the year) I'm excited to announce my new serialised creepy comic - Totty's Tales Of Terror

I have three truly TERRIBLE ideas and I'd like YOU to help me decide which tale to tell.

Your options are...

Queen Of The Sea - I wake to find myself shipwrecked on a mysterious desert island - and I'm not alone...

The Face Of Horror - Whilst visiting friends in a c...

Dragon's Dungeon - Cover Art

As part of the changes to my Patron, I'll be showing you more work in progress like this. My posts will be more spontaneous, uploading panels as I work on them, so you can virtually look over my shoulder and see what I'm doing. After all, as a Patron you're supporting my work, so I think you should be included in the creative process :)

With that in mind, here's another sneaky peek at the D&D comic I'm currently working on. This cover panel is shamelessly ripped off from my favourit...

New Month, New Start

Hello there,

Thank you for all your kind comments and messages over the last couple of days. Many of you have deleted your membership and no longer wish to support me - I fully understand. Thank you for your patronage - I really do appreciate it :)

To the Patrons who are sticking around to support me through thick and thin, your loyalty will be rewarded! I have lots of new ideas to keep Patreon alive. In preparation, I've just bought a pair of shiny new gloves!🧤🧤

'Unhappy Returns'

Remember that $500 bikini I bought in 'Go Figure' a few weeks ago? Well, now that summer is almost over, I thought I'd try and get my money back...

If you look carefully, you'll spot the lady that originally sold me the bikini. Also, that couple on the escalator look familiar... perhaps they're having difficulty returning their bikinis :)

Sheila (The Thief) - Character Sheet

Greetings adventurers!

Here's a quick update on my Dungeons and Dragons Sheila cosplay...

I've been fine-tuning a few details and I thought recreating the original Toei Animation character sheet would be a fun way to 'stress test' the outfit from multiple angles.

There are still a few wrinkles I need to iron out, (literally) but I'm fairly happy with how it turned out. The cloak in particular looks great on camera - it catches the light and looks like flowing liquid or some ...

Pin-up - 'Low Hanging Fruit'

Here's the pin-up I was shooting yesterday. As you can see, in the original painting the woman has exceptionally long legs, perfect for apple picking. I on the other hand, rely on exceptionally high heels to reach the low hanging fruit.

Breezy Does It...

So I was shooting a new pin-up photo this morning and I needed a shot of myself picking fruit. There's a little pear tree in  a meadow not far from my house, so I decided to be adventurous and take the photo outside.

However, I didn't factor in the Great British Summer... it was very blustery and my skirt would not behave. Luckily, I don't think there was anybody else around!😊

After about half an hour of messing about in the meadow, I eventually got the shot I needed back ...
