KeroTera

Just a little something because after last month extra, I wanted to draw more Card Captor Sakura stuff haha.

Would you be willing to save the world if your guardian looked like this? (Can we say it's a guy in pajamas?? lmao)

I hope y'all are doing well! <3

Stay tuned for more & for the comic update!

New Pages!

It's RIGHT HERE!

The pages are exceptionally posted earlier because I'm going to my parents' this weekend! I hope you'll enjoy them!
We continue with a bit of lightness and humor, I missed that! I even had fun with the Boy's outfits, as you can see haha! I wanted to dress him up like a little king for his birthday.

I can't wait for Tera to reappear for this occasion...!

Card Captor Boy



It's been so long since I wanted to do a 'fanart' of Sakura but The Boy & the Wolf version! I dove into it without really thinking and I really like the result haha, it's a bit fck up, funny, sketchy, but soft.
I hope you like it!!


Oh, I might have been influenced to do this because of the recent announcement about Magical Doremi! There might be an upcoming sequel or something; the trailer is on YouTube! I loved this series when I w...

Joris! YAY!!!


I just felt like drawing the three boys as high school students coming home from school, wearing their uniforms!
I like the overall look of the picture and colors, it's colorful and shining-

It's not quite the result I wanted, but I need to try other stuff on upcoming images!

I really hope you like it, as I rarely do colored pictures, I kinda wanna know if it's...

Little something

Just a little something before the comic update (in 2 days!!!)
I've been working all day I feel like I'm going crazy, tomorrow is about to be the same but I enjoyed doing those pages!
(It's just because I changed my PC during the month (after 7 years with the same one) and there have been several issues with it, which have significantly delayed my work)

I hope y'all are doing well! Take care <3

I really need to reply to your comments on the latest update, I read them when I get the mail and everytime it's just soooo motivating, thank you!
This month it really helped me to overcome my lack of motivation (plus, I was a bit late on my schedule, gave me a boost!).

Lets do this right now actually-

(I hope you like this vibrant picture!)

Sooo 4 days ago I was like "Let's do another extra Pico, you gotta please your readers!" And then all I remember is CHAOS.

I was all over the place. I would start something, didn't like it, dropped it, started something else, didn't like it, went back to the previous one, and eventually, I ended up pursuing a completely new idea.
I hated it omg.

I hope you like this one tho. Been really into white on red lately.

The Boy

I worked on another extra at the beginning of the month, but I haven't finished it yet; I don't know if I like it or not... So, in the meantime, I did this! Very happy with it!

And of course, I continue to work on the new pages that will be released at the end of the month!

Love y'all, take care!

Happy New Year!

Happy -early- new year patrons!!

     I believe it's the opportunity for me to thank you once again for all your support and encouragement throughout the year 2023. It may be just words for you but I mean it. I am immensely grateful to have you, to be given the opportunity to bring these characters to life and tell their story. I can never thank you enough for that, except by continuing to breathe life into these characters an...

Happy Holidays!

Literally the first time I do a Christmas illustration in all these years of drawing these characters, if I'm not wrong ??

Classic, but I believe people like that... I'll try to draw a more elaborate pic because I would really love to! If something simpler comes out instead, it means I panicked and roll back lmao.

This month update looks pretty good, I'm really happy with it so far! I'm really enjoying working on it, you may have seen a bit in my Instagram stories lately! I hop...

After finishing last month's update, I realized that the script for the upcoming pages wasn't fitting; a scene was missing. So, I improvised these pages, which took me a lot of time because usually, I have them planned out for months! By the way, I was supposed to post a text...

Trip to Disneyland

I'm so late that I didn't even send the upcoming pages to my proofreader yet-

Just a little sketchy-something before the update! Tera seems so happy around his boy, that's adorable-
Can't wait to see them like this in the comic!

New pages the 30th!! Love y'all!

November Sketches

       Sorry, that first extra is coming a bit late!

I spent quite a bit of time trying to find something that motivated me. Tera's hair is messier than usual because I was going for a 'just woke up' vibe. Had to redo it twice cause guess what, your character's haircut is a part of their features and if you change it too much they don't look like them anymore :notthis:
I almost gave up on this because initially, I wanted something quite rough and ...

Some cute shots of Tera and the Boy cuddling and all tired-

I hope you're excited for the upcoming pages, on the 31th!
I've posted a bit of some panels in my stories lately so you know it's gonna be very soft (and hopefully a bit emotional!)

Have a great week end guys! Let me know what's your Halloween costume if you do anything for the event!! <3

Page 718

I don't know if this is page 718 haha, but I've had this kind of concept in my mind for a while: creating full-page illustrations of scenes that might appear later in the comic.
In fact, it could even be useful for me because, at some point, I'd like to be able to make a "trailer" for the comic using images from different panels; but for that, I need scenes that take place much later in the story (like this one).
By the way, it makes me realize (or question) how it must feel for reader...

Hey there!

I'm posting a few panels as some of you requested! I hope you like them.
The first one is a first version of page 542: I explained it when I released the new pages, but even though the panel looks nice with a playful vibe, I wanted something more "aggressive." But I love the idea of Tera pulling the Boy towards him, haha.

The second one is the full page that some of you wanted to see without any text bubbles, so here it is! The original image was less zoomed in, you...

Guess what's my favorite doodle here?? TERA IN THE MIDDLE zzrhqedh&efhk&wehflhlefh-
I need to give it its proper illustration *cries in french*

For those ones I tried to get out of my comfort zone and not focus too much on the accuracy of the drawing. Lines and color and anatomy ain't perfect but I tried to deal with it lol. I wanted something sketchy but nice to look at. Nothing is really clean; this is so not the way I'm use to draw (t...

Urban Boys - Tera

This isn't even the complete picture as the Boy is supposed to be next to Tera, and I did draw him but didn't feel like posting it yet (needs some rework imo) and I'm already late for the first extra so here is Tera's solo version!

To make the full image even more exclusive, I've dressed Tera in this one. He's basically shirtless lol. But now I have to say I love him in his tank top a lot.  

I love how I want to draw summer stuff and only use n...

It's a part of a small color-sketch sheet I've done but I like this one with this simple background and the minimalistic vibe! Love how his tummy muscles look soft lol.
