I'm 39 today! Thought it'd be a good opportunity to post this self-portrait I did a few weeks ago for practice x'D

Some quick pose studies while referencing: quickposes.com/en/gestures/...

Today is HAVEN and the Fallen Giants release day!! 🌟✨💙🩵 The book turned out SO beautiful! bit.ly/havengiant

www.everblue-comic.com/comic/vol1-c... Everblue updates today with a double-page spread!

The next page is almost done! Just need to a little more lighting stuff! I wanted to stream more, but a two-page spread with this many layers is apparently pushing the limits of my RAM, ahaha x'D

Since I last worked on an Everblue page with Krita, the updates have been gradually inching it toward feature parity with Clip Studio (for my uses, at least), and it's definitely a more robust comic-making tool now. I don't know if any app will ever do magical vector layers like CSP though, lol.

Thanks for coming to the stream! Finished up all the flats for the new pages and completed this new Facebook profile icon, haha

twitch.tv/blue_ten Streaming the next page! (and a Luna/Ten promo piece)

The day has finally arrived!! “RIFT”, my new webcomic series starts updating today and every Friday going forward! 💫 Today’s update features the cover for Chapter 1, as well as 3 new pages! You can read here, or start by reading the prologue! 🌌 riftseries.carrd.co #comic

Almost forgot: health update! Been to a bunch of appointments (with more to come), but still don't know what my condition is. However, after some weeks of physical therapy, and new daily medicine, I am feeling much better than I have in a looong time (hence getting back into livestreaming, hehe).

Just finished the inks for pages 143-144! I'm super happy with the feel and quality of the lines here, I feel like it's some of my best work in Everblue so far ;v;. Also, I'll be streaming the colors on the Twitch tomorrow! Stay tuned for the post if you'd like to catch it!

Working on a new (left) profile pic for the Everblue Facebook page, which I noticed has had an old one (right) for quite a long time x'D

Streaming the next page(s) of Everblue now! twitch.tv/blue_ten

A new set of Everblue concept sketches are up on Patreon! What could they mean...? >:B www.patreon.com/posts/develo...

Oh! And I've got a question for any fellow artists who stream! I'll be using OBS as usual, but what's your go-to software for displaying stream alerts (twitch follows, donations, etc) nowadays?

Finished up my last big commission, so work on the next page is finally in-focus now ;v;. It's a two page spread! Might try to stream later!

I hate to post this again so soon, but I'm behind on my utility bill now (tax payments until Fall take priority), and work has been slower than I hoped with my weird health. ko-fi.com/everbluecomic If you want to support me, my ko-fi has exclusive donation art, and/or comics/brushes for sale ;v;

I noticed I've been doing this a lot in my sketches and I think it's my new favorite good-enough shorthand for "eye looking in a general direction" xD

Everblue AU where the Skyward is a stubby little seaplane.

Excited to get back into the comic soon! I did a very relevant sketch of Luna >:3. Also, the full illustration is up on Patreon! www.patreon.com/posts/aflame...

Still need a bit of food money to get through the rest of the month! I added some new exclusive sketches to my Ko-Fi gallery for any donos! :3 ko-fi.com/everbluecomic/

With my taxes paid for now and my website bill coming up, the money I have is locked up and I'm in need of grocery funds, so I'm gonna drop my ko-fi link again x'D ko-fi.com/everbluecomic There's some new Ten and Luna sketches viewable in the gallery since last time :>

Without stating your age, post a movie that released when you turned 18. It was the end of a very conflicting era, lol.

Happy #Supergirl Day! :D

Hang in there, Luna 🎨

Taxes filed and payment plan started. I can rest for a bit ;<;

Very late to the game, but I did the Frieren thing :>

Ok! I'm back from the hospital. The technical term for my injury is a "vertebral artery dissection" (spooky) and I need followups to find out if I have Marfan and/or Ehlar Danlos Syndrome. Got a couple new meds and a diet plan just to be safe. I'm hopeful, tbh, it's nice to have names for things ;v;

Welp. Ok, I got a CT scan and they found a little tear in an artery behind my neck. I'm being admitted, and actually I'm kind of hopeful this is the thing that's been causing me pain on/off these last five years because it is solvable!

I've had bad headaches for as long as I can remember, but I think I experienced my first migraine with the "aura" visual component today. Spooked me so bad I'm at the hospital getting checked. Better safe, etc

Just started watching Frieren Season 2 and already I feel like any random frame I pause on would be worth studying. It's all so gosh dang masterful *__*

Had this idea for a dumb fluffy comic with Luna and Ten, and sketched it all out while it was still fresh in my mind x'D.

Trans people and their right to life are not a political distraction. Period. Here’s a booklist of comics by trans creators/featuring trans and GNC characters and stories. Please support trans comic creators (and all trans ppl), now more than ever!! bookshop.org/lists/trans-...

I'm at that end of the month stretch where any money I have is reserved for bills (and taxes) next month. So if anyone wants to help me get groceries by buying a brush set or some comics, you'd be my hero ;v; ko-fi.com/everbluecomic/ Donations also get access to bonus Everblue art c:

Found an old sketch of Luna in her festival outfit! Decided to do some quick ink/color practice!

Today, Rising Sand turns TEN YEARS OLD! 🎉🥂✨ It's been a difficult journey, but we're still standing! From the bottom of our hearts, thank you all so much for taking an interest in our story. Here's to ten more! #art #comics #webComics #indieComics #RisingSand

There's a really cool graphic novel you could be reading for Trans Rights Readathon #Booksky

I think I've discovered my new favorite layout for palettes! It's a color wheel split into three rings: midtones (outer), highlights (middle), and shadows (inner). Still tinkering with this, but it's working out great, plus it's a fun exercise trying to pack all my fav colors into a 7x7 grid, haha.

I have Internet again ;v;. It's much cheaper, at least for this year, and even after that it won't go up to $90. No joke, having no Internet for 2 months did wonders for my mental health. I feel healthier than ever, so I'm gonna blaze through my last commish set and jump right back into Everblue!

No shade on the overworked/underpaid animators here. Just thought this might be a fun and quick redraw, ehe

As we celebrated the 10 years anniversary of the comic last weekend, we've decided to do a re-run of the comic! I'll be reposting the whole thing, one page weekly, on Mondays like we used to! The full thing is still all there on the website, if you want to binge-read it... 😉 www.thethiefoftales.com

LRP: I had the pleasure of doing a little flat color work for Haven and the Fallen Giants! The artwork that I got to see is gorgeous and I can't wait to read the whole thing ❤️

It's official, HAVEN and the Fallen Giants is coming June 16th! Preorder here: bit.ly/havengiant 💖🥹 This story has been YEARS in the making and we are so stoked we can finally share it!! If you've been itching for a sci-fantasy where cities grow on the backs of dead giants, we got you~⚡️

Here's the last commission from the sketch set! A Supergirl fan-design! (re-uploaded to fix an alt text typo)

Charter was the $90/mo ISP I stopped using. Unfortunately, they are the only broadband/fiber provider in my area, leaving 5G Home Internet as my only other option. Anyone else here use cellular home Internet? Is it decently reliable?

I saw the question going around asking which tablet type artists use, display or non-screen. I have a screen tablet and I love it, but the great thing about them is most have a driver option to use them in non-screen mode, for when you want to give your neck some rest, haha

DnD Commission! I'm almost done with my backlog now!

Forgot to mention this here! I shut off my Internet service so I can save that $90 per month for taxes. So, if I don't respond to messages right away, that's why, ehe. Maybe I can find a cheaper ISP after this is done xD.

An OC commission from the latest set! Two more to go c:
