I'm excited to share that I officially set up a ko-fi shop! ✨ I put up prints that I've done over the years. I hope to bring more products (including charms, digital wallpapers, and stickers) as well as open up commissions! I appreciate your support! 😊

This thread will be for the pages of my nearly-completed comic "Mutineers", which I am sharing ENTIRELY FOR FREE because fuck capitalism.

the cover of the comic features zephyr (darker skin and hair), embracing wallace, their boyfriend, the older guy with glasses and facial hair. down below they're seen in a station wagon 1999 ford focus driving towards Pittsfield in the berkshires of massachusetts which is all originally the lands of the pocumtuc indigenous people before it was colonized

wallace and zephyr are driving down the highway in their friends' borrowed car. listening to zephyr's cd collection, they accidentally confuse Pittsfield with Pittsburgh.

Zephyr is flipping through some of the CDs they have, picking out Throwing Muses but then becomes concerned that Wallace hasn't gotten to pick any music. He admits that he doesn't have a preference or any memory of what music he used to like.

(a few panels still missing colors in this one) Doing cute road trip date stuff! eating snacks, sightseeing, taking photos on the french king bridge in Gill, MA

Nope they don't expire! And yeah it's for profile decoration. You can have different icon borders, backgrounds, and add additional boxes of content and stuff like that.

[🎮] recently I upgraded my 2016 iPad (which slowly made rhythm games unplayable), so now I'm finally getting around to playing Project Sekai (ProSekai? ProSeka? PRSK...? PJ...SK...? I'll eventually figure out how to call it.) I'm very used to Bandori so I'm glad the playing style is intuitive.

[🎨] Wanted to try my hand at making digital wallpapers, so I did a pretty blue sky. I couldn't resist adding some sparkles to it, which is a slight influence by the Steven Universe style. I used the new set of Procreate brushes, and really had fun with it! ☁️

A drawing of a bright blue sky with fluffy white clouds. Some sparkles decorate the sky, which gives it more of a dreamy/airy look.

The original photo of the sky I took in 2015 (maybe in Massachusetts?) The clouds have more desaturated shadows compared to the drawing.
