Just had my author copies of this beautiful book through. Definitely for the dedicated collectors but the art by @alexries.com (cover) and @simonroy.bsky.social (interior) is so beautiful.

I’m currently drawing the conclusion of this story (for next month), and undercutting my own nice flat color approach with a whole end sequence that requires much too much rendering. Gotta cut this masochistic behaviour out!

With the biggest hurdles of the Small Hours golem out of the way I'm making a little more time for other models.

It’s totally genetic- I’ve been stuck with a flat frog ass my whole life. But Ive known other men with pert, buoyant dumpers who don’t even work out!

I feel exactly this way until I read prose that really blows my mind - when you get some of that real evocative shit that’s gets your cortexes running hot, I personally prefer that to a comic… but I spent my whole life learning to draw so here I am

Comic books are (and this isn’t hyperbole) the greatest story telling medium that has ever existed. The combination of text and images rendered with a human hand is the most direct path from one mind to another. All other medium pale in comparison.

Hoo boy, where to begin. Well, let's narrow it down by keeping it limited to living artists.

@verface.bsky.social made my fave comic from last year's Shortbox. awesome worldbuilding about a multi-species society. Pretty sure all hard copies are sold out, but you can still get the ebook.

I’m honestly not sure what my plan for next year will be! I’ve got a big client book I’ve got to help kickstart… and half of a book finished already (nightsoil, which needs at least two more big stories to be complete)
