This Festering World (poam)
Feeling poemnous these days. Rather ponderous and proliferating. Pontificating the podsmos or some such.

Ah, Greatures #80 is taking too long, so I'm skipping it for now and moving onto the next batch of regular strips which I've already been at work at! Here's one now! Wow!

Hello! Taking a break while I wait for Greatures #80 to cook. You'll see why when it pops out of the oven! In the meantime, I've been writing more! Poems! Or Poams as I annoyingly call them. Or charmingly call them! Whichever!

Cooking up some Pigs in a Bucket for the New Years! We might have a bit of a wait on Greatures strip #80, as I'm doing something special for it. But I've got more pigs (strips) in my bucket (notes app) to get ready and prepare in the meantime.
So, if this be my last post on here for 2024, let me say: Good riddance to this year! I've had a trying time all year of some personal growth that has made me have to bust out of my old kids clothes that I've been holding onto for w...

Oh, they may eventually rue the day. But for now, the Wizard let's it go.

A happy holidays again to all and a thank you for believing in the me who believes in Greatures. I don't really know what could be next. More greatures? A return to "Me & You"? Something else? I'm a little lost to be honest. With all the creative freedom I have, I don't know precisely what I want to do with it. It was simpler when you had to build towards something, but I've already built a lot. Guess all that's left is to enjoy oneself, which I am trying to remember and keep up with.

And to all a good night! Such ends Cigarette's little morality tale.

Waking up earlier and earlier these days. Not able to rocket from the crypt, anymore. It's more of a meander out of the tomb.

No!!! Cigarette!! If only there was some kind of fable about learning your lesson you could read up on!! Maybe one seasonally appropriate?

We're gonna throw the book at her, but the book is an Electronic Gaming Monthly magazine, actually.

There's never enough time in the day for what you need to do! Especially when the Shnail gets into the sugar. Sheesh!

Had a patron ask about clean art of the band Nuclear Bubble Wrap's album "PROBLEM ATTIC" that I did the cover and gatefold for. So I put these together for said patron. AND SAID PATRON had the idea to put these out officially on here for everyone else, so why the hell not. Here's some nice, big images of some weird art that was fun to draw and put together. If you have a desktop compu...

This one was kinda out there and got away from me when I was inkin', but what da hell. Here it is anyway. PLUS, this will be the last one for a while as I go on a trip to see my family in the coming week. So it'll be all you get for at least 10 days!!
I'm gone, baby!! See you when I see ya! Don't pet any strange greatures!

I don't speak German, I simply used DeepL to translate what I had written about Empty Boy being too full to continue eating the expired bratwurst Cigarette was bringing him. If any German speakers in the audience can tell me if this reads okay enough, I would be open to fixing the translations in the first three panels. I don't mind if it simply sounds goofy and stilted, but hopefully the dialogue still has a understandable through-line.
Also, if anyone out there works at Underberg, I ...

What a strange lady.
edit: took a new pass at "coloring" the strip. I want to keep it simple, but still change it from the past strips going forward. I want to think about how I color anymore, rather than just choosing the Shnail's standard color for their shell or worrying about skin tone or etc. I never want this strip to feel like it's running on the old hardware, I wanna find something new within it with the presentation of color, I think. I need to go back in time and pay attention...

A Special Sunday Strip-sized Greatures for the 60th. But just the one panel, so it's not that special. But in any case, thank you for joining me on this long and dirty road.
2024-11-19 22:34:16 +0000 UTC View PostAbove is just a silent video showcasing all the prints and letting folks know of it. Go and check it out and get a couple!
