Queer Fantasy and Weird Tales for the People
Important safety lesson: leave the object of a puncture wound inside the wound until you can get to a surgeon. The object is holding all your blood in.
Eight panels in one page is far too many, but past me (who planned out this page) is a scoundrel and a villain. I cross-hatched as fast as I could.
As expected, there’s some blood in this one. You can find the whole thing below the cut:

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”I have had so many crashes today, which is partially why this post is going out so late. I remain just two pages ahead of you.
This page is a little less miserable than the last two, but things are still pretty depressing below. I promise eventually it will get better.
