I’ve made up two Ysendra wallpapers from panels, but they’ve just the size of my screen, so if you’re a different resolution, let me know. I’m unsure which is the most popular nowadays. I can’t go MUCH bigger than these[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
Dignity and style above all else. (I’ve added a ko-fi link to the sidebar, because I like the idea of it! So if you’d like to leave me tips, its a cute little way to do it. The comic,[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
Hello everyone! I’m back, 2 weeks into my new job, and hoping that I can pick updates back up at a normal pace. So, of course, I started with a page with a ridiculous background.
I am back! I’m rather proud of this page right now.
Hello! I am travelling and unable to draw the comic update. Please bear with me and I’ll be back next week!
Ysendra beats Clarissa to taking action.
From the prose, which I stick up on Patreon: ‘Wil wondered if Befriending Dangerous Women was a marketable skill.’
Yes, Wil has basically been up all night.
Jakob is so dramatic. All the time.
Sorry the page was late! I had such a busy day yesterday I came home and just fell asleep.
I could sit and write out all the character nuances I have in my head for Jakob and Ysendra (and the others) but it’s just far more fun watching you all react to their conversations in the comments.
I kind of want to put ‘I don’t hate you, you’re just frustrating’ onto a greetings card tbh.
Updating on my birthday. *eats cake* Jakob likes to talk, and Ysendra closes off again.
Ysendra and Jakob find that their idea of fun surprises doesn’t line up. Also, since I lost this page the first time, panel 4 is now improved. Hooray. Silver linings etc.
So… I finished today’s page, and hit save, and as it saved, the program crashed, losing ALL. ALL of my work. Normally I’m not such an idiot that I don’t save often, but I was multitasking and forgot. So[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
Hello everyone, and Happy 2017 to you all!
Since the next update day is Boxing Day, this will be the last page update for 2016! Comic story will resume in the new year :).
I was away this weekend and my comic page has 9 panels so please bear with me.
Oh yes, Clarissa doesn’t want to leave. It’s getting exciting for her.
And scene. Now I can move onto other conversations! :D I think my character drawing consistency got a heck of a lot better over this conversation so hooray! They look a lot more like they should in my head.
Ysendra stays true to character.
Actually a little sad that I didn’t post page 13 on Halloween.
An agreement is made. Kind of.
I worked on something over the past week-ish and it’s totally knackered me out. I’m away most of this week too for work, so I’ll try to do a page in time for next week. Meanwhile enjoy this weird[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
As always, thanks for reading!
I’m at a family funeral today so there will be no update. Thank you for reading.
I was/possibly am still jetlagged (I actually fell asleep in my desk chair yesterday, whoops!) so comic will be delayed til next Monday!
Jakob is having far too much fun having another human to chat to. Early update! Graphics card replaced, things working. Next problem for comic updates: I’m off to Seattle this week for PAX (for work). I get back in the[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
My graphics card decided to up and die on me, for no apparent reason (yes, I have tried to re-seat it and test it, it just doesn’t seem to work any more at all. Not even recognised.) This in turn[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
Continuing the attempt at putting effort into backgrounds woot \o\!
Good news friends – I am all moved (flat and job) and I have a consistent job schedule now too! You probably didn’t know, but I worked retail before, and this meant working different days week to week sometimes. Now[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
Okay so, I’ll be moving house this month, and everything I own is all over my room! I’m a bit of a collector/hoarder sometimes, and it’s purge time. So re: comic updates: full pages actually take me quite a long[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
This year has been all kinds of terrible updating, and for that I’m truly sorry. I’ve had something suddenly come up in my life that will take up a LOT of time and involve a lot of life change, so[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
The whole time I was doing this page I was like ‘Ahahaha everyone’s going to hate everything Jakob’s saying. I can’t wait.’ At least you have Ysendra as the smol angry voice of reason.
I loved drawing this page. TWC vote piccy is a scrapped panel from this scene. I liked it, so I kept it!
Working over the weekend makes Monday updates kind of a pain, as you can tell from my upload times. Might consider moving update days in future. We’ll see…
Apologies, this update is a bit late. I bashed my forefinger in last night at 4am… because some neighbours were having an annoyingly loud party and I was trying to locate earplugs. I did find the earplugs, but I got[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
And we’re back. Hello! TWC vote incentive is olddd Ysendra and Jakob art, back when I knew he’d capture her, but didn’t know the details.
Trying to work on my shading skills. I think it paid off a bit. Welcome to Chapter Five! Does anyone else get dreams that tire them out? It just took me 2 hours to feel human again. (Ysendra certainly[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
As above, Chapter 5 will kick off next week. This week I’m away! Have a good week, and I’ll see you then. :)
And so ends Chapter 4. This is actually page 240. That count doesn’t include the 5 prologue pages because of the quirks of past-me’s comic labelling system. So, 245 pages. I’m rather proud of myself.
Well, now you know what 164 days is :)
So the shading etc is obviously not finished because I’ve been away this week. But I needed to share this page because it’s just so fun. I’ll finish it up tomorrow. FINISHED.
What’s quite amusing is that most of what Ysendra has to say has been said in the comments, but was written years ago originally. Yay me? TWC vote incentive – keeping up with Wil and Clarissa
Oh look it’s the two least reasonable characters talking about reason. Finally, a new TWC vote picture! Some characters we haven’t seen for a little while.
One of the hard things for me as the person who knows everyone’s character arcs is watching my characters, still not even half way through the story, act like the immature little babbies they are. Sometimes in comics, I have[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
Still loving drawing these two. The body language is just too much fun.
Yes, it’s a bloop. Totally legit term for: I am far too tired from work, send help. People have been off sick, I’ve taken on new hours, I have no idea how this will pan out yet as I need[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
My work hours have quadrupled so arghh still trying to get used to new schedule arghhh.
You just don’t mess with Clarissa. NB. Have edited Page 54 to remove Varik and Sophia because of reasons. Changed my mind where everyone was. ^^;; TWC vote incentive is a big beautiful Ysendra picture. If you’d like[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
I’ve had some trouble with pages – bad art month. This one was drawn, half coloured, scrapped and redone. Hooray.
I like to think that AU Jakob is an actor who delights in dramatic entrances. TWC is part of next page’s sketch that amused me. My sketches are pretty out of proportion, because I’m trying to get expressions and gestures[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
Happy New Year everyone! Any resolutions? Mine, for the comic, is to work on getting my buffer back. It’s not really a New Years one as such, it’s more a constant thing, and now I have less work hours I[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
Hello everyone! Thank you very much for reading my comic attempt, and sticking with me during my mini xmas hiatus. I’ll be back with more plot drama in January. I wish you a happy new year!
Filler for this weeks update. AU where everyone’s still happy and in terrible xmas jumpers.
My hours at work have rocketed up, so I’ll be hiatusing the comic until after xmas. I’ll try to post something next Monday though! There’s some awesome new plot things coming up soon and I’m super excited to do them[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
Of course she tried it. TWC vote incentive is alternate script for this page. I wish I could make it canon.
Sorry Ysendra, it’s not just because you look so cute in that dress.
I got recommended the webcomic Kill Six Billion Demons and oh my god, it’s incredible. The detail in the art is just fantastic. You should read it. TWC is a Ysendra doodle, of course.
Straight to the point. Thanks for your patience :)
The page is half done but I am SO TIRED (day 7 of retail in a row) so I’d rather just… finish it properly and put it up tomorrow after a good rest. Catch you on Tuesday!
I’ve waited years to be able to draw Ysendra in the last panel. That’s it. I don’t need to do this comic anymore. TWC vote is a Ysendra doodle :)
This page was a right pain. Sometimes the layouts come easy, others, nope.
I got broken by retail. So I’ll try to finish up the next page and get it up sometime this week but I may have to change my schedule since I’ll only get more hours.
Late update, work almost smashed me! Enjoy enthused Jakob. TWC vote incentive is a Wil doodle. <3
Sadface. TWC is a WIP of a Kirsty learns to paint piece of fanart. Trying to mix my more comicy style with painting. Hm.
Trust no one. Especially not Science Boys. But do blame them for your hunger. TWC vote image is AU urban fantasy modern day Ysendra.
I had a lot of fun drawing faces for panel 4. TWC incentive is a costume design drawing for future pages Thank you so much to everyone who votes on this. I’m frankly amazed by your support! I honestly never[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
Date night. TWC image is a variety of Ysendra expression doodles on paper
Ah, a lovely friendly chat. I’ve been looking forward to this part of the plot for ages and now it’s here I’m like AAH will I even pull this off or do it properly what am I even doing I’m[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
TWC vote incentive this week is the whole of panel 2 without the speechbubbles, because it was fun to draw tiny characters, and Sophia is hiding in there! Actually quite enjoyed doing this background… maybe I’m finally embracing them. Probably[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
Meanwhile. Who’s that in the background? Why yes, a webcomic cameo. I’ve scheduled this update because I’m in Scotland this weekend! Woohoo! TWC vote incentive piccy is a Ysendra doodle
Yeah, a lot of you saw that coming. Ysendra didn’t though! TWC vote incentive is Ysendra and Jakob having a civilised conversation
How to show a girl a good time. Lots of work this week so I’m catching up on art and comic related stuff this week! I’d like to redo the Patreon. If you’re unfamiliar with Patreon, it’s basically a big[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
I was away on holiday this past week, so TWC vote incentive is a picture of the Derbyshire scenery. I need to work on my backgrounds a LOT more so I took a whole bunch for reference. Remember those old[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
Flight Elitism. TWC is olddd Ysendra drawings from 2012, including one of the old versions of her dress.
Ysendra makes a new friend. Unsure if its obvious from one page, but her speech patterns are changed to fit in with the ball here, despite teasing Wil about it earlier! TWC incentive is another dishevelled Ysendra
And back to the present. TWC incentive is an angry dressed up Ysendra.
ONWARD! Perhaps this is why Wil thinks his brother is so pro with the ladies. Absolutely nothing to do with all the money he’d inherit. TWC incentive is me playing with Mucha style artwork because why not.
More flashback. Wil finally smiles again. TWC incentive pic is super old Clarissa designs!
I almost wish the whole comic was tinted brown, I love desaturated colour schemes… and also drawing Jakob’s animated face. He and Ysendra are the most fun. TWC vote incentive is Wil asking Varik a question posed by wwlaos last week.[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
