Kuro here! Wrote a draft script about a topic I've wanted to talk about, but knew it would open the floodgates. The scripted evolved into a full-fledged project, but a fun one, at that. Nothing too complicated that it is taking away from other projects. There was just much more to talk abo...

Ash & Kuro have had a busy, busy week. We were going to stream today, but are infected with the "Zombie Brain" that comes from drawing too much. Not really stream-appropriate - and we want to have fun!

So, it looks like some posts are still pretty visible to Non-Patrons because Patron decided to make their transparency horrible and not that protective, and it also shows text s well. So we will be repeating the first warning line three times to help with that, and this post is a test. 2022-12-10 17:05:33 +0000 UTC View Post

A Fun Little 5YL Post

PLEASE DO NOT SHARE ANY INFO OR IMAGES TO NON-PATRONS

Kuro, here! The last few chapters of 5YL, I got in the habit of putting the speech bubbles down first, so I wouldn't have to draw anything that's behind them to save time, and sometimes I forget what it looks like with them turned off. Lots of floating limbs and unfinished shading. 

5YL Update #107: Fury Danny

PLEASE DO NOT SHARE ANY INFO OR IMAGES WITH NON-PATRONS

Kuro here! In Danny's Fury Form, he can shapeshift his body a lot easier, such as creating a monstrous face for a mighty roar, and also occasionally runs on all fours.
