This is still a draft and I will likely change before print to give it a more militaristic look in line with what we had in the back of KMD1. But I had not done an update in a while so thought I'd give you guys a glimpse into what is going on behind the scenes...

Today we nearly finished two pieces of traditional art and I shipped out two packages to international backers. Afterwards, Yuka did the roughs for the sticker on the upcoming DK#1 Campaign. This isn't quite final, but I thought you guys might like seeing the progress.

Hey Folks
I did something a little different tonight. I took three or so hours to brainstorm a short story. I will probably adapt it into a faux article to feature in the back of Xenotype II: Instrument of Destruction. Get some Victorian gothic artwork made for it, maybe a few coffee-stained documents. You get the idea.
Its currently unedited. But I'll email it over to my editor tomorrow. Sorry for any typos. Once I locked down the concept, the entire thi...

It’s Family-fun Friday and that means, you, you guessed it, more work. But a lot is getting done and that always feels really rewarding and while I’ve been having a lot of stress related headaches and neck pain for the last couple of days following some recent misunderstandings, projection, and drama, I am not going to let it slow me down!

For those of you who missed the stream last night and may be concerned or curious about the future of Conquest Comics. As you have probably heard by now, I’ve deleted my YouTube channel and I am moving away from that path for promotion.
This does not mean that I am distancing myself from you guys or cutting you off. To the contrary, I am regrouping. I want to get the POWER HOUR up and running properly – that means a proper schedule, a prope...

Hey Guys!
As you guys know, we like to keep you up to date every step along the way, so I'm happy to announce the script for KMD2 is edited and finished. We've just started transferring the roughs over as placeholders for prepress formatting.
Above are the three initial cover concepts. We've decided on going with #2 and keeping #3 for the Chapter Page (and Collector Card), but we'd love to hear what you think!
In Chapter II, the Alchemist's Lie the hens com...

Today Yuka practiced using her copics for the first time. She's still learning to blend and adjust from digital art but since you guys are what make all this possible, I thought you might want to take a look at her first attempt. Thank you for your patronage. Enjoy!

A serious moment of introspection as I identify the source of my self-loathing and why I have been tolerating all the abuse. This will mark the end of an era as I clean house and prepare to move forward as a new man in 2023. Thank you for putting up with me through all of this.

Yuka Cross has been with Conquest Comics since 2020, during this time we've watched her blossom into a phenomenal artist improving in a range of disciplines ranging from animation to sequential art and even coloring.
Her dedication to the arts and my expert ability to herd cats has kept her followed and allowed her to excel exponentially. She is living proof that the Conquest Method works and I am very proud of her.
Your patronage has helped us keep the doors opened and enco...

Hello Team Conquest!
As you may or may not know, Conquest does not do business with communists or companies that utilize child labor. When I started this company, I wanted it to be rooted in the principles of ethical capitalism.
So, when I found out the previous company was outsourcing to get the work for the patches done in Chinese sweatshops, I had no choice but to cancel my order with them and seek out another more local company.
Only...

Kakashi closed today so I thought I'd give you guys a preview for some of the bonus content. These are rough drafts.
I really want to do more Patreon exclusive streams and put more content here for you guys. So, if there is something you are wanted or expecting from me, please do not be afraid to ask!
When IGG processes our payment, we will be going straight to print and doing fulfilment immediately. I think I'll do another fulfilment stream series. Those were fun last year....

Hey Folks!
I feel terrible about the quality of the last stream so I thought I would share one of the bonus pages from the upcoming KAKASHI book to try to make up for it. As you can see tremendous thought and care has gone into this project. And yes, it happened during the sea of chaos you saw on stream! Just imagine what I could do with some peace and quiet?
I know there are some military-brats out there in my supporters, so I hope this is up to standard.
Thanks again...

Hey Everyone!
For those who may have missed it Hope has had what will be her final litter of puppies. So tonight at 7:30 AEST I will be hosting a private livestream where we will be counting the puppies, naming them, and checking their sex. Come hang out!
That is about 3 and a half hours from now.
