Character Sketch and Details: George
For fun here's a character who is appearing in this chapter: George Grable, and his many cats. I drew the cats off and on over a few months when I thought of or saw an interesting cat.
George was an influential party in the glory days of Toons, but has become reclusive to avoid fans, would-be-apprentices and debt collectors alike. To skirt fans and taxes, he lives in a alley dumpter on an old friend's property in the Toon Quarter, but due to the unique laws and rules there, it's "bi...

Page 202 Early Preview!
I'll have page 203 online later today (finishing up details) and that'll be part of a 4-pager going up Friday! Coloring isn't my strong suit so I hope y'all like this!
2015-06-17 10:02:30 +0000 UTC View PostHeads up: this Patreon is changing focus!
I've been thinking long and hard, and even though I'm constantly making content... its not always Love Me Nice. And I keep feeling bad when I get really busy with Slipshine or fulfilling a Kickstarter or taking on a new/temporary project.
So starting this month, this patreon is going to be about supporting my work in general. Love Me Nice will be among the projects supported, and will have goals to reflect that.
What this means is that a lot of my content that's bee...
2015-06-16 00:56:29 +0000 UTC View PostJust letting everyone know I'm working on a 3-4 pager right now that I was hoping to have done before today ended for Patreon but my planning for 2 may conventions in Canada (aaaahh) and other stuff keeping me busy made that kinda hard. I'm not going to bed tonight til these pages are done and uploaded for backers, though. I badly want to update the comic. This new chapter was also kinda daunting because now that books exist, I realize that the first few pages I do for this chapter will be the ...
2015-05-01 05:26:47 +0000 UTC View PostSorry for the lack of updates!
March has been JAM PACKED with not-drawing work, but it’s almost over! I was trying real hard to squeeze in a Slipshine update and LMN pages before March ended, buuuuuuuut it looks like that just was too much work to expect of myself on top of everything else. BUT, all the Kickstarter prep-work and other stuff is DONE, all I gotta do for it in April is ship rewards! So I’ll be back to drawing full-force when this weekend is over! I’m also gonna start doing live streams at least TWICE A WE...

This is another preview of something I just finish that's a book exclusive, art for Chapter 4's title page.
2015-03-02 21:39:16 +0000 UTC View PostIllustrations for the Book
Aaaaah I forgot Feb ended early so I didn't squeeze out a few more pages for the month. Dang it. I've been editing the book and making it ready, and even have been drawing new art for it. I've included one of the chapter illustrations here as a preview for patrons! I'll be posting a few more this week, and there'll be more live streams soon. There'll be 3 more pages done and online this week, which is good because they're the last 3 of the book. I'm also going to be uploading thumbnails, as Vol...

There is a new live stream channel that is private, and only Patreon and Kickstarter backers have access to it! I will announce on Patreon and Twitter when these streams go live. This only applies to Love Me Nice -- regular live streams will be public.
2015-02-03 00:33:03 +0000 UTC View PostLove Me Nice Kickstarter! What's that mean for Patreon?
As you may be aware, the Love Me Nice Kickstarter (https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/224096455/love-me-nice-volume-1-pre-order) launched 6 days ago and is 95% funded -- wow! That's pretty cool, but I've spent the last few days thinking about what this means for the Patreon. If the campaign is *barely* funded, there's no reason to change the Patreon. The funds would just be ...

Happy holidays! Here's a preview of 195's pencils and dialogue for all patrons
2014-12-24 21:15:27 +0000 UTC View PostHey! So obviously I've been too busy October to get any content up for Love Me Nice -- meaning I don't fault anyone for deciding not to push their pledges through. November is going to see a bunch of updates, though. Aint gonna judge anyone who decides not to fund for October, haha Also some people haven't gotten their postcards? So I'm just gonna make a new holiday-themed postcard and send it out to everyone. In fact they may become monthly, just to avoid someone missing a one-time post card o...
2014-11-01 12:54:16 +0000 UTC View PostThumbnails for first 7 pages of Chapter 8 (spoilers)
Since I've been working way slower on LMN than I planned, I thought I'd at least share thumbnails for next 7 pages, since that's all I've been able to do! It's a bit gibberish and spoiler-y at the same time, haha
2014-09-06 19:54:42 +0000 UTC View PostI was bustin my butt to get pages done before July officially started (to meet the 4-page/month milestone reached for June), but in spite of being elbow deep in pages, I didn't pull it off. So in a few hours I'll be posting some finished pages. Sorry about that. Moving and finishing jobs distracted me a lot, but I'm settled now and only have to work on LMN and Slipshine for July! Gonna be lots of updates.
2014-07-01 08:03:33 +0000 UTC View PostNew Video, and new pledge level!
I updated the video. I made my original video before a lot of comickers made their way to Patreon, and consequently spent the whole time explaining how Patreon worked. Now people pretty much are on the ball in regards to that, so I figured it was better to get a new shorter video up. I wish I had a better setting to record the intro vid in, but ya do what ya gotta do. As for the new pledge level, starting at $5 pledgers can see each new page as I finish them individually, instead of waiting for...
2014-05-12 23:18:52 +0000 UTC View PostUpdate: Switching to Monthly
I have been extremely busy this month, and due to last minute cancelled pledge last time I didn't actually make the $150 per update, which means I couldn't justify updating weekly. In light of how swamped I am, I've decided to make the pledge rate MONTHLY instead of PER UPDATE -- this way there are no surprises at the end of the month if I were to suddenly drop 3 updates or something. I'm going to change my goals to match. Feel free to lower or adjust your pledges accordingly. I'm still going ...

OOPS! I goofed it! and Questions.
So I did 2 updates last month (Feb) but I forgot to actually report it to Patreon, so I don't get to collect on those pledges. I'm not sure what to do, if I should just put those two pages towards March's updates (resulting in March having a disproportionately higher update count), accept Paypal pledges, or just... move on. It sucks cuz I completely forgot and could have used that money hahaha. ALSO, I've been thinking of switching to monthly pledges instead of per-udpate? What do y'all think?...
