just busy and missing drawing my dang comic, hope I can work on it again soon
I've shared these before, but I feel like sharing them again. Some mostly-finished Porrima pages, though some still need tones. I am eager to get this chapter done so I can start posting the webcomic. That'll be nice for my brain.

My recent project at escape room was making one of our rooms mobile/controllable remotely, and oh my god the amount of trouble shooting, new equipment, cable management and climbing into the dang ceilings... It's over now and a success so far.

I wanna draw SO MUCH from our Curse of Strahd game, but haven't had time. Here's a rough comic based on our last session
Also included crop and zooms cuz panels are tiny
Our socially inept members went to run simple errands without our charismatic paladin, and it went badly
Never again #art #DnD

Got a question from my dayjob for you smarty pantses: if a flash drive is saying it needs to be formatted and isnt recognized, and there were files on it people needed, is it a lost cause or can anything be done?
