Xie Lian went from being scrap collector to weed collector. Weird to see Hua Cheng without his signature crimson red.

Happy mid autumn festival. I was not having a good drawing day but I got mooncakes from my friend and thought I should draw hualian. Not entirely happy with it but this is all I got #tgcf #midautumnfestival #hualian

Thank you so much. I'm currently working on a graphic novel which is not this and I'm looking for publishers or agents as I'm not that good with marketing. But once I'm done with the first 8 chapters and couldn't find a way to publish, I will make it into a webcomic. I will update if it happens.

Yeah, it's just ✨them✨🥹

If you’d like your name to become a character’s name, then be my friend. But you better have an interesting name.

This is very random. I was not drawing anyone in particular or had anyone in mind. But I’m getting a slight Binghe and Shen Qingqiu vibe.

As I mentioned in my last video, this is the panel, the one I couldn’t figure out who I had drawn after a week. I'm so stupid, don't be like me.

Printed out a draft of a cover design I’ve been playing with.
It’s definitely still in the experimenting stage, so things might change, but I thought it’d be fun to share the process.

Alright folks, I’m officially starting to post about my graphic novel! I’ve been sitting on this idea for a while, always finding excuses to put it off. But this is my first step!

Please take a moment to read the delivery instructions. I’m still figuring things out. Stickers can be shipped internationally, but tote bags are currently available only within Canada.

You are not sorry, Xie Lian. We know!
Enjoy the second slide 🌚 I had no idea what I was drawing either for more than half of the process. It was as if, Hua Cheng possessed me.
