Here are the sketches for the new chapter headers that will be included in the Willem book. I went through the series and figured out there should be around 8 and I tried to make the drawings kind of fit what was happening in each chapter. All of the drawings are new with the exception of the one of (Willem as) RAGS, I drew that one quite a while ago and it's one of my favorites so I'm going to use it. :)
The figures on the chapter pages will be colored, the background will be white and there ...

Hey guys, these are the sketches for the stickers I'll be offering with the Willem book. Sorry about the ghost images under some of them, I tried to adjust the color balance so they weren't as distracting, haha. These drawings are in a sketchbook I'll be offering as a KS reward so I can't remove the pages to scan them. :P
The stickers will probably be 3"x3" in size, so I will need to crop these drawings a little. I decided to include RAGS on all of them since he wont be getting a sticker of his...

I drew this a few days ago and forgot to put it up here! I was watching Beavis and Butthead and then Daria while working on stuff for the Willem book Kickstarter and I needed to draw some fan art, haha. I'm going to put up a sketch dump either today or tomorrow so you guys can see the sketches I've been working on!
New Devil Spy will be up on Monday, WOH! on Tuesday and Willem on Wednesday! Thanks so much for being patrons! :)

Good morning everyone! Here is your Willem update for this week. :)
I'm working hard to get stuff for the Willem book ready so I can start the Kickstarter soon. I am doing some research on publishers and drawing some sketches for chapter headers. I hope to get the campaign started within the next four weeks. The closer I get, the more nervous I get as well! Haha. I hope it all goes smoothly.
Thanks so much for continuing to support me!

Good morning! Here's is your latest Devil Spy update! Thanks so much for letting me take the last week off, it was super helpful but I'm glad to be back into the swing of things!
I went over all my Kickstarter stuff with my friend Jake last night and I think everything's sorted out there. I just need to figure out some stuff with the publisher and then I can get the campaign started! I estimate it will be in full swing in less than four weeks! I am excited but nervous. :)

Hanging out with twins Brandon and Brian isn't always easy, as Amber is soon to find out in the Willem series. I just wanted to draw something with ink and markers because I haven't done so in a while and I am out of practice. I think I need to update my scanner settings for these type of drawings as the actual drawing looks way better than the scanned version. I have no idea why ambers hair looks so orange here, it looks yellow in person, haha. Oh well, I hope you enjoy it anyway! All three of ...

This is a drawing I did of Amber a couple days ago. I think I will likely ink and color it and use it for one of the print rewards I'm planning to offer with the Willem Book Kickstarter.
I'm about halfway through the page layouts for the next chapter of WOH! So the series should be returning soon. Hope you guys are having an excellent week so far!

I forgot to upload these earlier! These are the full sized drawings I used for Moonshadow and Wallflower in my Kickstarter image. Thanks so much for letting me take the week off. I am still working on things behind the scenes even though you can't see it, haha. So I will have new pages of Devil Spy and Willem up next week.
I've fallen a little behind with my progress regarding WOH! and the WIllem Book Kickstarter with everything going on last week, so that's what I'll be focusing on this week....

Here's your Willem update for the week! What has Michael gotten himself into?
I am currently putting together the Kickstarter campaign for the Willem book. The rewards I'm considering offering include: Stickers, Prints, Posters, Tee Shirts, Pencilled Willem Pages, Filled Up Sketchbook... Is there anything else you can suggest for rewards? I really want to run a successful campaign so I have another book printed and I want to make sure I'm offering things people want. Thanks in advance!

Trying to work on some simple Kickstarter stuff to take my mind off things, but this image took me all day anyway. This will be the main project image for the upcoming Willem Book Kickstarter. It took longer than I thought to make it because I didn't have any recent drawings of Moonshadow or Wallflower so I had to draw and color new ones. Let me know what you think of it!

I'm working a little bit on the Willem book Kickstarter today. One of the the first steps to setting up the campaign is to make an image for the project. I decided I'd do a five part split screen with the main characters of Willem by taking some screen shots of the comic pages. Sounds simple enough until I realized I have no real new pages with usable drawings of Moonshadow and Wallflower. My art has improved a lot since the last time we really saw them in the comic, so I decided to sit down and...

Hello everyone! Here is your Devil Spy update for the week. Human life lesson number one: What is tee vee?
Reminder there will be no new WOH! tomorrow, I am still working on the script (the bulk of it is done but I still need to write some more) then I have to draw some layout pages. WOH! will likely be going down to an every 2 week schedule for a while when it comes back so I have time to work on getting things ready for the Willem book Kickstarter.
Thanks so much for all your support guys! I...

Oh, Michael... what kind of trouble have you gotten yourself into?
That's it for comics this week! Next comic update will be Devil Spy on Monday. I'm open for commissions until the end of this month (trying to pay off some ridiculous vet bills!) so if you know anyone who needs a commission, direct them to this post for details: http://jaymzeecat.deviantart.com/journal/Commissions-are-open...

Good morning everyone! Here is your Devil Spy update for the week! DS walks the line between being super creepy and super friendly, I guess Ana should have taught him how to properly make friends...
Tomorrow the last page of WOH! will go up before I take a short break from the series to work on the script and layout pages for the next chunk of the story. The next Willem page will be up on Wednesday.
Hope you guys had an excellent week! :)

Morning everyone! Here is your Willem update for the week. It took me a while to get this page down, but I think it came out pretty good. I wish I got to draw some of these villains more often (especially Shapeshifter Steve). The script is still a work in progress so I honestly don't know where/when we'll get to see some of them in action. I should have a page for you next week, talk to you then!

Hey guys! Here's your Devil Spy update for the week! DS isn't well versed in the fine art of making friends.
Sorry about the lack of a Willem update last week. I thought I was all caught up on my comic pages, but apparently I missed that one? Anyway, I will have a Willem page for you on Wednesday. :)

Here is your Willem update for the week! I guess that's the end of ol' Buzzkill.
I contacted a plush maker this week about getting a RAGS plush made. If it comes out good, I'm hoping to offer RAGS as a Kickstarter reward. Fingers crossed!
I'll be at Cherry City Comic Con in Salem, OR this weekend, come by and see me!

Hey guys, thanks for letting me take the week off. It was a rough time but I am ready to get working again. I'll have a new page of WOH! for you tomorrow and I should have a new page of Willem up on Wednesday (fingers crossed!).

Hey guys, I am in the beginning stages of getting ideas for the Willem Book Kickstarter. I would really like this campaign to be a success so I can make some books of Willem and get them out in the world. I need to hear from you guys to see what you would like to see and not like to see, what rewards you'd be interested in and what extras you might like in the book! I'm hoping to get the Kickstarter started in the next 2-3 months.
For the book, I'm thinking a total of 150-160 pages. What do you...

I just wanted to drop a line saying there wont be any comics next week. One of my cats is sick and will likely need to be euthanized, I have to take care of him until the time comes, sadly don't think I'll feel much like comic-ing. :(
In the meantime, feel free to leave me some suggestions. I might put up some sketches or fan art or something like that. I am also going to post something basically looking for ideas/suggestions for the upcoming Willem book.
Anyway, I'm sure I'll talk to you guys...

Sorry for the super long delay, but I think I'm ready to pull Willem out of hiatus. Updates will be sporadic for a while though, since I am now working on 3 comic series' and it's going to take a little time as I get a good rhythm going. I am planning to aim for biweekly Willem updates but I can't make any promises yet. I'll be putting up the pages as they get done for my patrons, so I'm not sure when Willem will be back to public updates.
Thanks so much for supporting me! :) I hope you enjoy t...
