BIG poll

this is an open poll with a simple question: which characters would you like future side comics to be about?
you can choose as many options as you'd like, although something short of "all of them" would be good, to narrow it down to which concepts i should focus on!
there is an "other" option as well, if you would like to comment. the characters listed are the main/most developed ones i have.

original dialog to the end of this scene (note: lola was originally smoking in this scene)--
-- i could stay alive for that. so i guess that’s why i stopped… haha.
lola: [takes a long drag]
lola: i always thought it was kinda funny that all i wanted as painkillers. ahahaha... a cruel joke. life. that's what life is.
sugar: it makes sense to me.
lola, confused: ...
lola: ...do you think it ever really counted as being sober if i still smoked weed?
sugar: i mean… i think...

the joke, explained: espresso is concentrated coffee, usually drank in shots, for the caffeine.
a cappuccino is espresso with a little milk, a lot of foam. a "bone dry" cappuccino is espresso with no milk, only foam.
meanwhile, a latte is espresso with a lot of milk, a little foam.
the customer probably assumed "bone dry" mea...

april stream poll

info:
round-robin style stream: sort of like a request stream. drawing a comic, and the audience decides what happens panel-to-panel.
expression pages: basically just drawing different characters making different faces
worldbuilding streams: focus on deigning and elaborating upon lore, settings, subcultures, etc. instead of characters themselves.

hey everybody. new month.
last month was very messy with the move and all, but no major deadlines missed.
i think i mostly have my life straightened out now.

onto business, then.
everyone in the 15 tier has gotten another point for commissioning (to be edited in a bit).
the poll for this month's streaming agenda will be up shortly. i'm gonna do one rollover stream from last month (probably tomorrow) to finish up that duck and dive page.
additionally, i'll be conducting a focus p...

copy/pasted from the author's note on the site's queued page:
"A/N: the word “lierons” in panel 3 is french.
for those who don’t speak french: it is from “lier”, which is the verb root of a word you may be more familiar with: liaison. it is pronounced “lee-ey-rowe” with a very slight, gentle nasal “n” sound at the end, able to be manipulated into a soft rhyme with “done” and “fun”. the “s” at the end is silent.
for those who speak ...

hello hello, we finally have internet in our new place, so here's the next page.
i am guessing this comic has maybe ~4 or 5 pages left.

i moved house, so this page had to be a little shorter than i wanted it to be (but it's still average length). it ended up taking 3 days of my time, including my birthday, and i am exhausted.

consequent to my move, drop-out will update at midnight on EST time now.

additionally, stream may not happen on saturday, because of an internet situation that should be fixed monday.

shading the next duck and dive page.
the stream now includes a chatbox feature on it, so that what's being said is recorded in the archived videos on youtube, as well.

new month, new post. i kind of regret not using a color palette for this one.

lots of stuff happening this month. we'll see whether this turns out to be a really good thing or a really bad thing!

in terms of what i have to say in this update, not much.
everybody in $15 tier gets a commission credit from last month, next duck n dive page will be up tomorrow sometime (it's been sitting there with base colors for like 4 days, but these back-to-back drop-out pages...)
