Willow Creek: Conclusion

This marks the ending chapters of Willow Creek.

01010: The Dance of Unknowing

The Willow Creek town square, usually a place of gentle, unhurried commerce and quiet contemplation, had been utterly transformed. It pulsed with a vibrant, infectious energy, a kaleidoscope of light, music, and joyous celebration. Strings of colorful paper lanterns, exquisitely crafted in the shapes of smiling crescent moons, twinkling stars, and stylized woodland creatures, crisscr...

Willow Creek: Chapters 9-10

The end of the novella will release on November 9.

01000: Imprints

Yes, he promised to help Lena. But, yes, he felt deep unease over what happened with Callum. But he’d never felt a thrill like that before, good or bad. 

He wasn’t going to stop. 

This had to be planned, part of a game-within-a-game. They sold you on a life sim, and then kept you there with a 4th-wall breaking story. So many indie games did this anymor...

Goofy Animation Scrap: Optimus Prime's Secret Second Transformation

Transformers in D I S G U I S E

Made this sequence a year ago to experiment with a new model, but scrapped it because there's no real flow between the stages, even though I liked each panel individually.

But decided to see if Veo could actually connect the stages a bit better.

The answer is... "an attempt was made"

Honestly the first six seconds is pretty goo...

00101: Slippers

As it was, Elias himself had felt strangely at ease falling into Lena’s job during the day. It had been somewhat rewarding, dealing with specific ‘people’ and helping them with their problems, rather than his ‘real world’ job. 

So, that evening, rather than going to his own cottage, together they went to Lena’s cottage first, just as the sun was dipping below the horizon. A rustic w...

Another exciting month is coming up!

L.A.R.P. Issue 3 is starting tomorrow on the evens track!

For newer patrons, I should mention that this issue should be readable without going back from the start of LARP, although I am considering how to pace a comic-based re-release with Issue 1 more consistent with the style of Issue 3.

Willow Creek will be finishing on the 9th!

One Bite (1-Year Anniversary Cover)

1-year since "One Bite" and with it eventually the "Vampire's Thrall" comic earlier this year. With the 1-year anniversary of the song, I thought it'd be fun to do a cover in the "DB/E-Girl" style. Hope you enjoy! (above is DropsBalls doing a vampire cosplay)

I feel like for certain types of stories I'm too cryptic, to the point of risking anticlimax. And yet, this is the end of this comic.

To be clear, there is foster care adoption, but most children in foster care are 'trying to be reunited' with their family. This project probably didn't need that level of convolutedness... but maybe it did?

(This was a project idea I had that is basically at this point 'unfinished, and not going to be finished this year, and I'm not going to wait until next October to finish it -- that's why I'm including it in the bonus gallery track, basically because otherwise it's just abandoned on my hardrive forever. I might return to this 'idea' one day, although by then I'd probably just start fresh. It's obviously unfinished, but I'm sharing it in the hope that maybe you can imagine where it would go fr...
