Hello and happy #WebcomicDay to all who celebrate!!

My story is Deck, a screentoned manga-esque comic about a city poised to restart a failed revolution, and a kid caught up in the middle of it as she makes the city her home. It's rated PG/PG-13.

Read it here!: tapas.io/series/rigge...

A young girl smiles as she holds up a hand of playing cards and stands before a plywood wall littered with defaced "WANTED" posters and signs for something called "The Rig Casino". A graffiti crown is painted on the wall above her head. The comic title, DECK, is written at the bottom.

A bloodied man speaks, looking to the ground. "We used the ledger at the blockade. If we knew our shit got mixed up with you Rigs'--"

"There was no ledger." An accusatory voice interjected.

"...O-okay, yeah," the man continues, shaking as he looks up at his captor, who just placed a hand on his shoulder, "so maybe we WERE a little lucky, but, just--" He panics and takes a closer look at the room around him, one littered with bodies. "Listen, man, our guys didn't open the damn thing?"

"Then who did?" His captor asks, his voice calm.

"S-some asshole the newsstand sent over. A contractor. He saw your shipment a-and got PISSED. He let loose whatever was in it." He continues, snapping his head back to his captor with a pleading look. "We-we tried to get it back, but-- t-this contractor guy, he TURNED on us. Helped it escape."

Acer punches a wall immediately behind Twin.

Upon realizing he's still alive, Twin retorts, "whoa, dude. Temper. What if you had actually hit me?"

Are they trying to ghost you instead of addressing comments like only mature adults with jobs would 😭

(Leaf)Saw @leafsaw.bsky.social · 1d

on the one hand, its awesome to have such a distinct personality in how we draw our ocs! on the other, we've cursed them to never show joy 😔

(Leaf)Saw @leafsaw.bsky.social · 1d

Fun fact, that picture is the first post I ever made on this account-- I've been meaning to redo it.

Here's a few OCs to kick off the new acct! Here they are a few years before the story kicks off. Lookit how happy they were :D

(Leaf)Saw @leafsaw.bsky.social · 1d

This is brought to you by that time I drew this guy smiling and it looked strange and offputting to me, his creator

#originalcharacters #ocsky #comic

Clover is holding up an old photo of Acer smiling with his friends.

Clover: Is this really you?
Acer: I don't look that different. Where'd you find that, anyway?

Clover moves aside the photo to compare it to Acer as he appears now, with a perpetual scowl.

A: Why are you looking at me like that?

Clover is visibly confused.

A: Clover?
C: Uhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

(Leaf)Saw @leafsaw.bsky.social · 2d

Continuing with #OC-tober and drawing my OCs dressed as horror movie characters-- Aluco and Chain this time! This scene doesn't play out like this in the movie but eh, they're still in costume.

Guess the movie if you can: answer's in the alt text.

#originalcharacters #art

My OCs Aluco and Chain dressed as David and Jack from An American Werewolf in London, respectively.

Chain is eating a piece of toast and is lying down beside Aluco, who is sitting up in bed.

FUN FACT~ June isn't allowed to babysit. I wonder why.

#originalcharacters #art

June and Clover dressed as Ripley and Newt from Aliens, respectively. June has a flamethrower that scares Clover, so she escapes and runs over to Acer, dressed as Hicks, who glares at June.

05 fire

#CastorArt #OC-tober #CastorOCs

Fire magic is generally regarded as an outlier, due to its destructive nature, ast he only element that affects the world by devouring matter. Many fire mages meet their end at the very hand of the force they claimed to control.
