It's been a while, but the wait is over--new pages of Bandit Revolver are coming to you! My goal is to have six new pages (pages 6-11) up over the course of the next week or so--even if there is some delay, I will get these pages to you guys! Thank you as always for your patience! Page 7 drops Saturday!
This one took over an hour to edit--largely because of both the panel layout and especially the motion blurring I had to apply to six out of seven panels...

Hey, guys! This is coming in a bit clutch, but the finished artwork for the double Noctis charm is here, based on the Noctis of the fancomic "Bandit Revolver"! This design will be a 2.5-inch gold acrylic charm! The artwork has already been sent off, and I'll keep you all posted on progress~!
Also, good news: Bandit Revolver will finally resume updates next week! Thanks as always for your patience!

A little peek at the first mini-print to be included with Noctis Pack 01! Don't worry; this is actually in colour! 😉 Expect the finished piece reveal this weekend!
The first pieces for Promptis Pack 02 are also underway! They will be shown in early August! 💖

The stickers have arrived, and much like the sticker for Promptis Pack 01 (have you claimed yours yet?), it's made on shiny holographic paper and weatherproof! 😍
The prints are currently being colored, and the charm is almost complete! More merch updates to come! 💖

Apologies for the wait. I've been very fatigued from work, depressed due to feelings of inadequacy, and have been working on merch for you guys as well as a birthday comic for Noctis (which will have pages exclusively for you guys)!
Rendering is going rather slowly, but as you can see there is progress. I want to focus on finishing up merch for Noctis Pack 01 before I resume 💦
Thank you for your patience! 💖 The finished double Noct charm will go live this week, so please look ...

Hello again! I've got the second Noct sticker for Noctis Pack 01, this time featuring a summer festival styled theme! I tried to think outside of the box in terms of the designs since it's a change from the previous sticker designs.
As of this writing, this and the design I revealed yesterday are currently in production! I will share the finished product once they arrive!
The Promptis Pride charm is also currently in production and the prototype should be on its way soon.
I'll...

This is the second of the pastel Noct stickers, and the first piece for the currently constructing Noctis Pack 01! Details on the final sticker will be available once the finished product arrives! The third finished design will also be revealed tomorrow!
Also! The first round of Promptis Pack 01 has been mailed out, and the second round will be mailed out Friday! If you haven't received...

Hey, guys! I thought I'd let you know what's going on:
First off, Bandit Revolver is going to resume, but I'm pushing it back to sometime in late July. I apologise for the delay. As some of you know, there's been a staff shortage at my job, which has meant that I've had to work more. While I've been able to give some of my shifts away, I've been left rather tired and it's difficult for me to do much. However, I am going to try to make the wait worthwhile as my goal is to provide 6-8 pa...

Hey, lovelies! 💖 Just sharing the rough draft for the Noctis acrylic stand figure that will go into production in July! I definitely stole the idea from Mortal Kombat 11 😆
The Promptis Pride charm is also currently going into production! I've ordered a sample product so I will know what to expect from the final product and will share that with you guys soon! 💖

Hey, guys! So while we're waiting on the Promptis Pack 01 to roll out, I am happy to share the first piece of the upcoming Promptis Pack 02: the Promptis x Pride charm! This is just the artwork for the time being, but I'm already working towards getting these charms into production so that I can have these ready for you guys! I'll keep you guys posted on progress for this product.

Okay! So some good news: the reprints of the erroneous print are currently in production. I've also opted for a different paper finish (a shimmer finish as opposed to the standard matte) as a way of saying thank you for your patience. ♥
I've also started working on pieces for Promptis Pack 02--with a targeted release in September, and the pieces for the Noctis Pack 01, which I'm hoping to unleash in August.
Also, I really appreciate all the votes on the poll! Seems mini-comic...

...because the printers I used sent me the wrong order even *after* I sent in the correct one.
So, needless to say, it's going to be another week and a half, and I do apologise. I am currently working on pieces for Promptis Pack 02 and Noctis Pack 01, and will work harder towards ensuring there are no delays on those. Thank you again for your patience!

What sort of goods would you like to see for future packs? c: I'm considering looking into items like acrylic standees, coasters...maybe even mini comics/zines! I'd be interested in what you guys would like to see!
Bear in mind; the mini comics/zines will be further down the line, e.g. Promptis Pack 03, so it would take a little time.

Hey, guys! So while you're waiting on new pages of BANDIT REVOLVER to drop, I thought I'd share an early illustration I made back when I was planning this comic out. If you look closely at the artwork, you'll see the signature reads "2017"--I thought I had been working on this comic since 2018, but I apparently started it three years ago!
This fancomic was going to be a very different story, being a Guilty Gear-inspired FFXV AU (hence the comic name for those of you who are fans of Gu...

Greetings, everyone! I have another sketchbook entry to share with you, featuring our main couple from my FFXV fancomic, "Bandit Revolver".
I originally planned for Prompto to be holding flowers, but thought that wasn't quite right for the kind of tone this comic has, nor the personality these two have. So, I decided that whisky was a better idea ;D
There's actually a second half to this, which will receive its own post as I very seriously considered d...

I figure on weeks when I don't have new pages to upload or merch to share, I can share these fairly detailed sketches, if that's okay!
These are just based on scenes related to the Bandit Revolver FFXV fancomic, that I went ahead and coloured (I'm still trying to get the hang of this technique...). The coloured editions will go public in a couple of days, but the original uncoloured sketches will remain exclusive to you guys. ♥
I'll have more content to come soon, and will update...

Oay, so here's the haps:
Page 6 will be another week. I just haven't had the energy to render. Lot of things IRL hitting me hard.
Gonna change up the contents of the Promptis grab bag. I apologise; I know I keep putting it off!
I'll also share just where your contributions are going in an upcoming post.
Saturday, I will post some sketches! 💖 What you see is a sneak peek.

Last week was a very productive week for me, which is why I'm able to deliver two pages this week!
As I was agoni-working on editing these, I thought to myself "between this and the prologue, I'm working on a lot of action scenes". I've realised though, that the necessity between them is to show how drastically different Noct's fighting techniques are from ten years ago to the modern time.
You'd think I'd do that intentionally, ...

Oof; I've been busy with rendering pages all week, and next week will be more of the same! Today I offer up the latest page, where Noct finds an entirely different problem to deal with!
If you're wondering what "Shift Break" is, it's the Japanese name for "Warp Strike" in Final Fantasy XV. I feel like Noct is such a dork that he'd go with this naming convention for his attacks.
Okay, I admit, I also think "Shift Break" sounds cooler.
Incidentally, I intended to use a differ...

Spent the better part of the day rendering pages. These are pages 5 and 6, and as you can see, they still aren't complete! 💦 A big part is that I won't slack on details, if I can help it, and I also consider the position background--more often than not, I always include the background unless I absolutely don't need to.
Page 3 of Episode 1 will drop Friday, with 4 and possibly 5 not far behind! 💖

I know I've been quiet the past few days, but I am not returning empty-handed! Thanks to one of my best friends, my tablet has been replaced and I was able to edit the first two pages of Episode 1 of Bandit Revolver, which I am sharing with you guys now! Admittedly, these pages were really easy to edit since there is very little dialogue and no action scenes that required additional motion blurring effects, hahaha. Of course, rendering it was a lot of work!

Bandit Revolver continues! To get things rolling, here's the cover art for Episode 1! The episode begins this Sunday! Thank you guys for your patience. I intend to keep the comic going from here on out!
Regarding the scenario here, for those of you interested in FFXV and its lore: the MTs that you see in this story are not powered by Daemons. In fact, Daemons do not exist in this story. So, that fluid coming out of the core you see there? Well...
The first page drops Sunday!

Work on rendering pages for Episode One is well under way! I can guarantee that the May 17th deadline will be reached. My goal is to get the first seven pages rendered before Bandit Revolver continues.
And yes, there are coffee stains on some of those pages...those will be 'shopped out.
I'll also put together a downloadable version of the Prologue, and will post that soon!
