New Patreon Post/ Last Watch Before Dawn Bonus Art

A digital sketch of a very fuzzy caterpillar with shiny black eyes.

Here’s a preview!

You can find the whole thing here. To see it, you’ll need to be a paid Patreon member ($3 a month) or to purchase the post ($3 one time). If you can do either of those things, I really appreciate the support! If not, don’t worry: regular pages will resume on Friday, and you’ll be able to see this drawing in the eventual print version of the comic.

Last Watch Before Dawn: Volume 1, Page 4

I tried all those fancy brushes last page, and I honestly think I like the simpler look better: just the one brush, using cross-hatching for texture and in-between shadows. I’m interested to know your thoughts.

Here we have a big sci-fi reveal. Image below the cut:

Last Watch Before Dawn: Volume 1, Page 3

This page kicked my butt and adding text in Photoshop is not exactly a nightmare, but more like one of those frustrating dreams where you’re trying to do a simple task and your brain keeps generating obstacles.

I’m still working out the art style and used some fancy brushes for this one. Let me know what you think.
