Queer Fantasy and Weird Tales for the People
I’m trying out some new brushes. I think I like them better?
As you can probably tell from the thumbnail above, there is blood and violence on this page. We’ve got a few more pages of suffering before things can start looking up.
The full page is below the cut:
Continue reading “Last Watch Before Dawn: Volume 1, Page 33”I would definitely prefer to have a backlog of pages, just to prevent service interruptions for you, but the one nice thing is that once I finish next Tuesday/Friday’s page, I’m done and can relax for a bit.
The mailer service I use for the newsletter appears to be back up, so I will get working on that soon.
I’m trying a new thing where I put the thumbnail I make for Instagram here before the cut:
In the meantime, here’s this next page. It’s got blood and violence, much more than the previous page, so be aware as you click below:
Continue reading “Last Watch Before Dawn: Volume 1, Page 32”I probably should have drawn all the men in detail in Panel 3, but I honestly did not have the time. The shadows look more menacing, anyway.
There is blood and violence on this page, just so you know. You can find it below:
Continue reading “Last Watch Before Dawn: Volume 1, Page 31”Thirty pages!!! I’m about a third of the way done with this draft!
Also, I filed my taxes today. I am a paragon of executive function.
To save your RAM, the image is below the cut:
Continue reading “Last Watch Before Dawn: Volume 1, Page 30”Well, I’ve had so many crashes today that I haven’t finished Friday’s page, and have thus officially lost my lead. So it goes.
You’ll notice that Ichiro is carrying more stuff on this page. I forgot about his quiver before. This is what the first draft is for!
You’ll find the image below the cut:
Continue reading “Last Watch Before Dawn: Volume 1, Page 29”Not too many crashes since I last reported in!
Our friend Ichiro is still having a bad time below. I can promise it will get better, but not for a while.
Continue reading “Last Watch Before Dawn: Volume 1, Page 28”I wouldn’t say I’m getting better at formatting text in Photoshop, but I am getting faster.
I did a panel with a detailed shot of the clan jito’s face on this page, and I’m considering leaving him in shadow when I do edits and redraws? Ichiro would definitely experience him mostly as a shadowy figure; this isn’t a close, affectionate family. Let me know what you think.
For the page I’m working on right now, a couple ahead of this one, I need to get one panel done per baby nap for the rest of the week. Wish me luck!
Image is below the cut:

I’ll probably have to redraw the last panel when I get ready for publication, but I was just so tired of looking at the various men that I kind of just slapped them in.
Still kind of depressing below the cut, but certainly much better than it has been:
Continue reading “Last Watch Before Dawn: Volume 1, Page 26”Past Me, being very dumb and kind of a jerk, decided that a top-down view would be the best way to establish the scene and the two characters in relation to one another. The version of me who had to draw this was very upset. I am comfortably two pages ahead of you right now, down from three, and I think this particular panel was why.
Anyway, we’re moving along in this chapter, which is the third of five. This one is earning us the “dark” in “dark fantasy,” so be aware of just a miserable situation including obvious addiction in the page below.
Continue reading “Last Watch Before Dawn: Volume 1, Page 23”I’ve been having fewer crashes! Did I get a Windows update that actually made things better?
Here begins the third chapter (of five) of the first volume. Fair warning: last chapter was dark, this one is significantly worse. It’ll start looking up a bit after this.
You will find this page below the cut:
