Reality Check: Level 3

“My name is Rogan, not ‘Spacer.’” 🛸👽💚⭐️

R-Kaid’s most powerful weapon are his legs. Could kill a man with those thighs 😤🙏

Tell me you’re obsessed with thigh-high boots without actually telling me you’re obsessed with them: *offers this comic* owo

Is this seat taken? *Sits on lap* Personal space has left the chat.

At first, I was just going to give Rogan Monster Energy but then decided to make my own based off of it. When looking for ene...

Level 3: Nerfed

(To me I feel like nerfed is a pretty common term, but in case you’re unfamiliar, it simply means to reduce the power of a character or weapon).

We all knew Rogan’s laces would have a part to play, they are the real villain of this story 🤣 So much for the sneak/surprise attack.

Cherry Pie 🍒 (Lineart)

Uncropped full colour in the £5 tier 💖💖💖 
“Hey street boy, what's your style? Your dead end dreams don’t make you smile. I’ll give you something to live for; have you and grab you, until you’re sore. Hello daddy, hello mom, I’m your ch-ch-ch-cherry bomb! Hello world, I’m your wild girl, I’m your ch-ch-ch-cherry bomb!” (The Runaways 🎵🎶) 🍒🍒🍒

It’s been a busy two weeks lately in my personal life, so I’ve been slower at drawing but I’m trying to pick up the pace 🔥

Oscar and Sawyer getting ready for the Founder’s Day party 💚💜 I just know I’m going to have so much trouble with her dress, ruffles are DIFFICULT. Harris‘ favourite are tailcoats, so of course every one of the main boys get a tailcoat 🧐

What do you think of their looks? :D ⭐️⭐️⭐️

My glasses are this big but they’re j...

Reality Check: Level 2

Level 2: We’re Going To War ⚔️🔫💥💚

”A SPACESHIP JUST CRASHED INTO THE HOUSE, MA!!” 👽🛸

There’s a phone wallpaper of the Tamagotchi’s in the attachments (or rather Tanya-gotchis X3)

Rogan has a kitty called Pixel, she can sleep through ANYTHING. Also, Rogan is gonna get a rude wake-up call if he thinks R-Kaid won’t know the difference between a toy and a real gun 🤣

Last time I played with Nerf guns was in a friend’s attic at 3am, as one...

Level 2: We’re Going To War

SAVE THE LAVA LAMP!!

Converse shoes are actually much harder to draw than fancy shoes for me, what gives 🤣

I enjoyed doing Rogan’s expressions for these panels.

Apocaholics 💖🥂

“Our fear is bottomless, now God’s forgotten us./ We’re apocaholics, drinking gin and tonics. Lying in the flowers, counting down the hours.” (Modern Living by Enter Shikari 🎵🎶)

I love this song so much and it’s definitely part of Virginia and Bailey’s playlist 💖🖤 They are my drinks OCs, based on Gordon’s pink gin and Bailey‘s Irish cream liqueur.

My top 5 Enter Shikari songs are:

1. Stop The Clocks (which has an awesome music video).

2. Mod...

When The Boss Is Away 🥵🧡💜 (Lineart)

Full uncropped colour in the £5 tier!
When the boss is away, the bunny will play 🐇🧡🧡🧡

When Florian needs to go on business trips, Errol has to hold the fort at Fawkes’ Flowers. Separation breeds a horny af bunny, sir isn’t there to help you 🥵🙏💖

Hurry home, the toys just aren’t the same~

The only important part of this coming update, Ezra’s Tea Rex mug 😤🙏🦖 Rawr .w.

More emotional than expected over chibi Oscar 😭 I think it’s cause he’s more serious than Ezra, so it’s extra cute seeing little teeny Oscar.

Trying to motivate myself to make a commissions sheet. I’d just be using previously posted art as examples, but there’s all the text detail that needs to go in, like what I would and wouldn’t draw. I swear I’ll get ro...

Reality Check: Level One

Level One: Lights In The Sky ⭐️💖💙

”It’s the strongest weapon in the game. DUH!” 🎮

We are starting off with how they meet! (If you read that one off, not canon, comic scene on my Instagram, disregard that completely, the boys have A DEVELOPED PLOT NOW).

Vast amounts of McFly and Busted were consumed during the many hours of drawing this comic and I regret nothing. 

The made up videogame Rogan is playing is called Quasar Lazar, a simple side-scrol...

Momiji Sohma: Fruits Basket (Lineart)

Full colour + phone wallpaper in the £5 tier 🧡 I have a weakness for bunny boys, and Momiji was definitely my favourite from Fruits Basket, so thank you for the wonderful suggestion Arthur Graf, I hope you like it 🥰🙏💖

When I started uploading the pictures to my Microsoft One Drive, the internet immediately went patchy and I’m like, HOW DOES IT ALWAYS KNOW WHEN I’M UPLOADING 🤣

Stay tuned for next month’s fan art Friday! 👏⭐️

Reality Check Preview 1

Level 1: Lights In The Sky (we calling them levels instead of parts :D and I thought it would be cool to give little individual titles for each one based on the scene).

You know me, one detailed background and the rest naked af 🤣

I’ll be following the same upload format as Backstage Pass, each part will be a brief scene, a couple of panels long. It helps make sure I’m not away from Tea For Two too long. Gotta keep myself balanced, not too big a work load that I end up disap...

The Last Starfighter 1984

“We are fools to waste the night, we should hold each other tight. Incommunicado, we gotta start talking again! Incommunicado!” 🎵 (Clif Magness, The Last Starfighter soundtrack).

As my OC Rogan is inspired by Alex Rogen, the protagonist of The Last Starfighter, I wanted to include the movie poster in his bedroom; where the opening scene of Reality Check takes place.

Rather than copy and paste the movie poster from Google images, I wanted to draw it in my style. I love the f...

Sweet mother of mercy, I’ve given myself quite a few panels to draw this update as it’s a montage scene. And what’s a montage scene without a kickass tune to go with it? I’m that artist who likes to pretend their comic is TV show/movie quality, complete with an epic soundtrack.

If only life’s problems could be solved as quickly as they are in boppin’ movie montages.

Also, thank you to everyone who has commented so far on the recent Fanart Friday post. I‘m glad a numb...

Reality Check: Cover

🎵🎶 “She’s got the highscore, and you’re coming off way too keen. Because you’re not what she asked for, you’re diving in way too deep. Unlike you, I know I’m not about to give my heart away. Unlike you, I play it cool because I know it’s just a game that we play, that we play, until our hearts go AFK~” 🎵🎶 (Song: Just A Game by Anki).

Since Reality Check is going to be in full colour, it’ll take me longer to do. Your patience is appreciated 🥺🙏💖

Tomorrow Brings Butterfly Wings 🦋

“Asleep in our warm cocoons, we dream of lovely things. We’re both gonna wake up soon, so we hope that tomorrow brings us our butterfly wings~” 🎵🎶 (Owl City, Butterfly Wings).

Seamus surprised Darragh by dressing up in butterfly wings and it STIRS FEELINGS WITHIN him. Mom are you proud that I grew up to concoct love stories between a cottage core lad and a magical moth boy? No? Okay.

I tend to post progress WIPS to the Discord art channel first, so if you’re not part...

Reality Check: Title Teaser

It’s not the comic cover, but here is the title reveal for the R-Kaid and Rogan comic: Reality Check! There’s a simple glitchy version in the attachments below which includes one of my all time favourite songs; Arcade Dreams by The Midnight.

They are my comfort band when I want to get lost in my thoughts. I played Arcade Dreams almost every night to help me sleep whenever I was going through a rough patch and a lot of R-Kaid’s story came to me in those moments.

Boys Will Be Bugs 🐞

Darragh: the ladies were all over me! / The ladies: 🐞🐞🐞

(Song: Boys Will Be Bugs by Cavetown)

”If ladybugs are girls, how do you make kids together? What’s it like in a female world? I bet it’s just so much better. / I have friends who understand me, their names are Spider, Beetle, Bee. They don’t say much but they have always listened to me.” 🎵🎶

Seamus works at a butterfly sanctuary and on his days off, one of the things he likes to do is study bugs...

The overload of confusing visual information that Oscar is getting right now 🤣 He doesn’t know what to question first.

BRING FORTH THE COFFEE CAKE. That is all ☕️🍰

There You Are 💚

I’ll post this to Instagram + Twitter later cause its 2:30am right now 🤣 Or I dunno, maybe that would be better, I doubt much of my audience is UK actually hahaha.

Shy to share creative writing prose, even if it is just a snippet 🙈 I’ve been toying with the idea of adding writing shorts to the £5 tier.  Anyway, hope you like sleepy Darragh 👉👈🥺🧚✨

Backstage Pass Q+A (Answers) Lineart

Comic shorts are available to every patron, but full colour extras like a Q+A with stand alone illustrations will still remain exclusive to the £5 tier. There is a colour version of Harvey and his guitar in the download attachments as that one will posted publicly to Instagram to promote the Q+A 💖

Thank you to everyone who asked a question and I’m sorry if i didn’t answer yours! Some required me to divulge everything about their story, which if people want a sequel, I couldn’t do, so I hope you understand! 💖

I had a lot of fun with Backstage Pass and I’m very grateful to the love you have shown it! 

Q+A Backstage Pass (Questions)

I’ll collect questions for now and then make a start on answering them after page 84 of Tea For Two is posted. If you have anything you’d like to ask about Harvey and Walter comment them below! You can comment more than one. I have no idea what amount I’ll get, but I’ll do my best to answer what I can! If you have any questions for me regarding the comic as well, go ahead 💖

I think about the Drake Bell meme from Drake and Josh often 🤣 When I drew Errol holding his hands out my mind went straight there hahaha. My favourite episodes are the game sphere one, IT’S SPHERICAL! And when Josh tries to get Drake to cave on sugar by turning their bedroom into a mini Willy Wonka candy land 🤣🤣🤣

Also, the only acceptable way to draw hands are chibi stubs, I don’t make the rules.
