ADA Chapter 03 - Ep 4

   Deepest apologies! :,> I meant to post it weeks ago but just fumbled and stumbled and then exploded with kidney stones.
Next ep is almost fully sketched out but is a bit longer, so I'll post it in two parts.

Hope you've all been doing well!

ADA Chapter 03 - Ep 2


Hey everyone

((Some sad themes in this update, so if you're not in a good place, please just enjoy the comic and avoid the following text))

I know I said the finished version of ep 28 were only days off last time, but... Things have happened and 2024 hasn't been kind. On the first da...

Clover - Zealot of the Red Sun

It's coloooored! Though it feels like I overworked it by a lot... Time that could have been spent on more... More.

Speaking of more... I've started poking at making a Hushabye Valley Worldbook. It'll require quite a lot of work so I'll be sharing it bite-size here between other stuff. :>

Hope you're all doing well!

Heeey everyone! I'm trying to claw my way back by indulging in things I just... Want to draw. The comic will resume soon, but I just need to get some stuff out of my head first. I think I'm finally in a position to find some... Peace.
Also, I don't know why lil Zealot-chan always ends up half on its way down on the cutting-room floor... I was so close to abandoning this one too many times, just l...

Hey.
I'm really sorry for the too-long unplanned silent hiatus. :,3 Things have been sorta... crumbling. Not been doing too great and getting work done has suffered greatly. It's a bit of a vicious cycle, tbh. Gotta keep trucking though :,> Thank you all for being here! And thank you for the...

So... finishing the episode should have been fast. Y'know... If life didn't grab the wheel all the time. But here it is. :,>
I really hope you're all well out there. Times are... tough.
I'll start work on next ep tomorrow, though!

The ADA banner that couldn't

So yeah... It looked neat in my head, but in reality it just looks kinda... too wriggly. It had some layers of shading left, but I had to stop it as is and accept defeat.

Next attempt will be less experimental I think :,D

Chapter 3 begins!
Lots of fun to be had!


Hope you're all doing well and staying healthy! I don't -think- this one should take too much effort to color, so I'm hoping it would done soon!

ADA Comic Cover 02

The amount of fiddling and editing and reverting edits this took to finish is embarrassing. But I'll consider it done! Time to sketch the banner until an idea stick while also getting to work on the first Episode of Chapter 3!

Hope you're all doing well and keep doing well or doing well-er!

ADA Cover Page WIP

Working on a new cover page for the comic before we move on to Chapter 3!
It also doubles as prep-work for posting the comic on Tapas. (need to draw a banner too) Even though I'm kinda happy with how Vincent looks all sharp and cool, I'll probably redraw him... Sorta breaks the flow of energy, as is.

(Why do guys have to be so difficult to draw, though!)

I'm also very early into cutting together the comic for "normal" comic book PDF format to sell for those who are interested!...

ADA Chapter 02 - Ep 8 - Chapter End

Alright, finally done! Dunno why it felt more finicky to color than I had estimated. At least we finally get a change of scenery next ep! Aiming to have it out this month!

Ok, back to the grind! Colors soon!

I wanna start by saying... Apologizing? Uh... Let-you-all-know that this ep is actually only half size atm. There's another long bit I wanna add to it so gonna be like a double feature next month.

Hope you're all doing well! Took a few days longer due to pet vet visits. Totally flipped my daily schedule upside down.

Decided to make the WIP cleaner than usual to make full coloring faster. Took lil longer, but will help me a lot. Sorry for the wait :,>

Hopefully we can soon escape the lab. After some actual science getting done.

Phew, here they are! Lil delayed, but done :> Being a dedicated follower of a living deity has its drawbacks! Even if mostly self inflicted... And unwanted... And unappreciated.

Helloooo everyone~~~

I'm sorry for having been so quiet lately. I haven't been well but been doing what I can to recover. :,,> Really super sorry.

It's my birthday today (March 20th) so I decided to muster a new avatar picture. Pretty much the same, just... Newer. Whatever reason to get the pen moving again, y'know?

Hope you're all doing well! I'll be back soon with more art and comics!

For those of you who follow my twitter, you might have caught my tweet of unfortunate events last November.

Sorrysorrysorry! Took a bit longer than expected :,> Had a bit of real life stuff taking up time and mind-space. Car got damaged while parked by someone and looking to buy a new house mixed with really bad sleep problems. So much up in the air at the same time. 

But here it is! Will be up on Webtoon later today.

Hope you're all doing well! If you're stressed, give yourself some time to self-care. :>
