The ever-shrinking wardrobe of Shelley Talora

She originally said shirt, but I realized I had drawn her in this shirt for the entire issue and didn’t feel like adding a blood stain to it. So I changed it to pants. Writer’s tip: change it to pants.[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…

We’re officially at the point where I should let you know that there is not enough comic left for me to hard pitch you buying the rest of it, but you can if you’d like.

Glowing Hearts, and every comic on this site, is a spin-off of a comic I’m never going to show you that I did almost a decade ago. The story itself wound up being too close to several other watershed comic[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…

I’m still finishing this comic, and desperately trying to keep to my two-s-words per issue, one-f-word per chapter/season, and it’s hard. I say both of those words all the time.

Characters: Clance Packet, Jessica Bottle, Shelley Talora, Tisl Ashwood, Whitney Kissov, Wistare Coronatus
As far as I can tell, half the pages for the rest of this set of chapters have between five and twelve characters on them, so I think I’m moving to two pages a week until I get reasonably comfortably[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…

Full disclosure: the original set-up to this scene felt a little too porny so I had to rewrite it a BUNCH.

I apologize for referencing defecation so much in this issue! It just happened!
Thank you for reading this issue! There won’t be a big break between this and issue 6, just a week or two. I can’t guarantee a February 17th launch, but it is possible/semi-likely.
I did this background before drawing the characters in, so here are some of the details you’re missing:
The dithering looks a little weird because I’ve started processing my images with Aseprite. Once I do a different color scheme it shouldn’t be an issue. So look forward to that in… 25 pages?
Please know that despite making a reference to a work made by Ricky Gervais, this comic does not support him in any way. Thank you for your concern in this trying time.

I am willing to put a lot of work into this comic, but I didn’t want to dig for the unicode symbol for alpha. Sorry.

or having will read it in the future. I’ll be back in a couple weeks to start posting supplementary material.
Writing a comic and passing it off to someone else to draw is an absolutely wild concept to me, because the text in this page was being changed up to the last step before publishing it.

Sometimes I’ll use 3D models to make sure the proportions in my comic are correct and what I’ve learned from this is that foreshortening looks fake, even in real life.
Can’t believe there was an attempted coup comprised entirely of people who prefer Guy Gilchrist “Nancy”
