BANDIT REVOLVER EPISODE 5.15
Did Noct just...? ๐คจ
Seems Prompto's being a little persistent with that last question, too. He's not one to give up, I guess!
Next page drops Wednesday!

Hiiii today is my birthday yayyyy ๐ฅณ
And as a treat for y'all: Bandit Revolver continues! ๐ These next few pages will wrap up the episode, so please enjoy...well, as much as one can enjoy Noct and Prom sharing more dialogue, anyway...๐
Next page drops on Monday!
Hey, y'all! This is just a reminder that today is the last day to claim your reservation for the Hot Noct Summer reward pack! I'll be sending in the print order tomorrow!
If you're interested in the mini print and sticker duo, comment below!
They've finally arrived! These 3inch (76mm) charms are ready for their new homes! Each have a small "emoji" charm based on their significant other. The final product does the original artwork justice!
(I apologise for the quality of the photos; I was struggling with the lighting. I'll be looking into better lighting/setup soon!)
Pre-orders are open exclusively for y'all...
Hello, lovelies! As promised, the Hot Noct Summer reward pack is here! โ๏ธ
This will include a 5x7/ 12.7x17.8 mini print and a holographic sticker! While the artwork for the latter illustration was created two years ago, it's not been made available until now!
If you're interested in claiming this reward pack, comment below! The deadline is August 15th, and all rewards will be sent out shortly after!
Also bear in mind: new merch will be available to preorder soon, so keep ...
It took me a few months (working on this off-and-on), but I finally finished this piece. I was motivated thanks to the trailer for the upcoming Tekken: Bloodline anime (which, since starting this, a later trailer confirmed Xiaoyu and Hwoarang; yay!). Since the anime takes place during Tekken 3, I decided to draw the trio as they were frequently shown in a lot of Tekken 3 fanwork back in the day. c:
I'd like to do one with Jun/Lei/Michelle and one with Lars/Alisa/Lee down the line.
<...
It's been a minute since I've posted one of these--apologies about that. I hope given the recent page load, I can be forgiven ๐
So, let's run down what's going on:
BANDIT REVOLVER: As y'all may have guessed, this is pretty much priority one. I want to get as many pages done as possible as there's a lot. This will be the primary focus from here on out, as will comics as a whole. Currently, I am working on finishing up Episode 5, which will conclude in Au...
Noct's hardass facade just keeps slipping the more he's around Prompto--that talk they had last night certainly helped. It's hard to stay mean when it's obvious Prompto is a genuinely caring individual!
Guess what? This is the 100th page of Bandit Revolver! It took a few years, but BR has reached its 100th page! Thank you to everyone who has read and supported this comic thus far--I'll be working hard to make sure it doesn't take another 3 years to get to 200 pages XD
The next ...
CONTENT WARNING: MENTIONS OF DRUG USE
In an earlier draft of this scene, there was going to be a brief shower scene where Noct was deep in those shower thoughts and definitely not cheap fanservice. Obviously this was cut, but there's likely going to be a shower scene in a later episode (in fact, I'd count on it).
As for the apparent abuse of Altissian bath salts, well...given that FFXV took a lot of its cues to real life, I figured in a setting like Bandit Revo...
Okay! So now we have a little bit of dialogue...or rather Noct's thoughts as he takes a good look at Prompto's handgun. Seems Prompto's mysterious background could have Noct's curiosity piqued.
Also, I am super super thankful I own a Play Arts Kai Prompto figure, because the gun came in super handy as a reference...!
Page 5.12 drops Friday!
Another easy to edit page, though this did need a little more cleaning up. But that's okay. :3
Funnily enough, when I initially drafted this and 5.9, I had planned on including Noct's thoughts. I decided to do away with that since I felt his expressions in conjunction with everything that had happened in the latter part of Episode 4 and earlier in this episode would covey more than what I decided was unnecessary dialogue. I hope I made it work!
Noct's going to try to sleep, but some...
Bandit Revolver continues! Noct's doing a lot of thinking (and a lot of smoking). The good news (for Prompto and probably Luna) is he hasn't left~!
I have to admit, this was the easiest page to edit, because there was very little dialogue (if a yawn can even be considered dialogue), no action scenes...every once in a while I show myself some mercy.
5.10 will drop on Monday!
Following Giovanna is Leo Whitefang! He was considerably easier to work on than Giovanna, but I had to wait until Giovanna was posted first since I started working on her first ^^; I always thought Leo was a neat character, and I love his updated look in Guilty Gear Strive! And of course, I had to have him working out of his personal dictionary!
This design will be used for stickers, and likely a charm down the road if there is demand for it!
Millia is already in progress, and ...
At long last, the Giovanna sticker designs are now complete! This one took a lot longer than I would have liked for a few reasons:
*Fixes was a whole process. Every time I thought I was finished, I found a dozen or so more areas that needed work. I admittedly put off working on this because of that >_>
*My layers were all over the place! Anyone who attends my streams knows that I don't like having a lot of layers on my work. Not only were my layers all over the place, I d...
...that's it, that's the post :D

Hey, lovelies! I teased these charms last month and am pleased to show off the finished artwork! I've also included a few close-ups of some detailed shots, such as the faces and Prompto's flash grenade!
As of this writing, these charms are in production! Please note that the text on Prompto *will* be flipped. I figured since his hairstyle was going to be flipped as well, I may as well be consistent, lol. Preorders will open to you guys in mid-July; the charms will ship sometime in earl...
I've put it off long enough, and now it's time to show off the drafts for the first two characters to kick off the next set of Guilty Gear Strive stickers, Millia Rage and Axl Low!
Much like Sol, I-No, Jack-O, Giovanna, and Leo before them, these will be 3x3 stickers and will eventually be made available in my shop. I say "eventually" as I'm putting a hold on manufacturing merch, though I will continue to design pieces so that when I am able to manufacture merch more regularly I'll be...
...some of you are yelling at Noct right now. Or me. Or both. I'd prefer you'd yell at Noct, tho--but just remember, the episode isn't over just yet. ^_~
The next round of pages will drop in mid-July! I hope you've all been enjoying this episode, even though it's all talking and no action.
Thank you as always for your patience and support! โฅ
Things are hopefully starting to be more clear as to why Noct's attitude sucks and how right Prompto was to assume that guilt was a factor.
Also, Prompto is still being a little persistent, heh.
5.8 will drop on Friday! Please look forward to it!
There's a lot going on. Prompto keeps getting good reads on Noct, though to be fair Luna told him just enough that it's easy for him to put the pieces together.
5.7 will drop on Wednesday! Please look forward to it!
Bandit Revolver continues with more exciting...talking action
I joke--while action is a big part of the comic, I think it's also important to see these characters talking to each other, especially when it's two male characters talking out their feelings. I get the feeling that those of you wanting these tow to talk to each other *at all* are just glad that this is happening.
5.6 will drop on Monday!
Hello, lovelies! We're just days away from new pages of Bandit Revolver, so the dry spell is nearly over! I've been working on a few illustrations (some that have been on the to-do list for...a while), and I'm pleased to share one of these new pieces with y'all!
Fellow patron vinjaryou showed me a photo of wrestler Nyla Rose casually sipping through a particularly blunt novelty straw XD I loved the straw so much, I just had to draw Noct sipping from the very same straw.
...I fi...
Hey, lovelies! Okay, so I know I said I was taking a merch designing break...and I mostly am...but my manufacturer had a special on a certain product I had been wanting to get done, so I'm letting y'all know that I am designing a couple of Promptis charms~! I ran an interest check on Twitter, and am offering the same for y'all so I know as to how many will need to go into production.
The design would feature a larger charm with a smaller "emoji", e.g. Noct with Prom emoji and vice-ver...
Hello, lovelies! It's time for another update!
MERCHANIDSE: First and foremost, those of you who pre-ordered the Hello Nyactis/ Knuckes "OH NO"/ Sonic "That's No Good" pins should have received notifications that the goods are on the way! If you still haven't received a tracking number, let me know and I will get that handled!
More goods have arrived in the form of fighting game charms, which will be showcased later this week.
The next Patreon rewards ar...
Hey, lovelies! I'm gearing up to get the next batch of pages for Bandit Revolver ready, as well as preparing a preview for my next round of original content (which is coming a bit late and I do apologise)!
In the meantime, I'm preparing the next art pack which will be based on a summer theme! The first part will feature Noct (naturally), though I have other packs in the works! More details will be revealed in a couple of weeks!
Hey, lovelies! For those of you who preordered the Sonic pins, the Knuckles pins, and/or the Hello Noctis pins, these will be mailed out starting June 6! Once they are en route, you will each be notified and receive a tracking number!
Thanks again for your support, and for your patience! โฅ
...wait, did I say they were gonna talk? More like argue...with Prompto landing the hardest hit. He knows something...and y'all will too in a few weeks when BR continues in early June!

Incidentally enough, I thought I would only be able to provide updates through 5.3--but I found an additional page on my scanner bed! I had been dealing with some day job stress, so it was natural for me to forget, I suppose. Still, I had hoped to get five pages out, but four is better than thr...
Here it is, the hot action you've all been waiting for: these two are finally going to have that talk!
The next page drops Thursday!
(UPDATE: Corrected a typo my editor missed.)
(...it was me, I was the editor)
...it's only the second page and Noct's on his second cigarette. >_> Anyway, it seems neither of them know how to initiate this conversation--Noct because he's Noct, and Prompto because...either he finds Noct a little intimidating or there's something else...seems Noct's gonna break the ice on this one!
The next page drops on Tuesday! Brace yourself for exciting communication action!
Episode 5 opens with Noct doing the one thing he hates doing--trying to talk to people. Prompto's not making it very easy with that bit of smart-assery. His heart's still in the right place, of course.
The next page drops Sunday!
