Started a new location today. It’s a bit of a challenge because it’s one of those locations I hadn’t world-built at all beforehand, so the reference search was long and painful, albeit educational and eventually rewarding. I had no idea Dutch houses in 17th century had ceilings this high 🙂…
When a part of your brain wants to focus on finishing the location for the next scene and the other part of your brain goes “but we just learned compositing, gotta composite something!” So my (as yet unnamed) planet now has it’s own Blue Marble Image. Or at least a…

Page 13 is up! A rapier can be a ranged weapon. In the right hands, it’s not as stupid as it sounds.
This piece is actually not for the webcomic. I know, weird. The other day I read Character Strengths and Virtues by Christopher Peterson and Martin Seligman and felt like creating some allegories. And summer is nearly here, anyway. Time for something green! I’m not yet sure if I’m going to…
