Webcomic artist, gamer and crazy cat lady. My current project is Kuro Shouri, a manga inspired by 90s shonen series. She/her.
I don't do f4f.

HEY! Have you read my comic, Kuro Shouri? It's a slow-burn action/fantasy about two high schoolers who are being hunted down by demons! If you like 90s style shonen, slow burn character relationships, and lots of martial arts and sword action, check it out!

I actually weirdly feel a bit better today. I'm not coughing as much and I'm not quite as tired, either.
I would certainly like for this to be the shortest cold ever. Here's hoping that happens!

Yooo this is y'all's opportunity to cancel this slop they call D+ and SUBSCRIBE TO YOUR FAVORITE ARTISTS PATREON. No AI slop, only good art for a much better price.

Do it! Go! Go! Go! Go!

Hisaki has to rescue or otherwise protect Yasha pretty frequently, and she is T I R E D of it 😅
It's certainly understandable that she wants to not be a burden, but it's also understandable that he doesn't want a dead friend. 😅😅😅

Not me replacing my avatar with my Ace Week pic because I'm sick of the Switch picture >.>;
Seriously, I like drawing a new avatar every time there's a new console, but...*stares at Switch 2* It's the same thing! 😅

I did the thing! Goodness, @davidaludwig.bsky.social , seems we talked quite a bit in the last week!

Before all the unpleasant stuff happened, I ordered my very first set of Ohuhu markers. They just arrived today.
I'm too tired and sick to really test them, but I like so far! 👍
(But seriously? 4 pale skin shades and only one brown shade? I know it's a six marker pack, but still...)

I was super confident this morning that I would be able to bang out another remake page, but...I think I'm coming down with something 🥲I'm so exhausted and I'm coughing up a storm. Gonna pull out the "I'm sick" excuse card and take it easy for the rest of the day.

My 5 dreams as a creator:

1) Have readers that comment once in a while
2) My comic is someone's favorite comic
3) Not be in the red every year from conventions
4) Finish KS, dammit
5) Have my entire comic on my bookshelf 🥰
My 5 dreams as a creator:

1. Survive on income from my artwork
2. Have physical books of my comics
3. Have figures/plushies/dakimakuras of my characters
4. Have someone say I'm their favorite creator
5. Stable, small community of fans who discuss and dissect my work and be excited about the story
👀 My 5 Dreams as a Creator 👀

👀 $500/mo patreon
👀 Successfully land the 747 that is TT's ending
👀 Crowdfund the print run after
👀 Start tabling at events and actually turn a small profit
👀 Be known in the trans canon of notable creators 🥺

Day 101 of posting art ‘til my hand is healed. An old spoiler pic I drew when I was writing the Kuroi arc. I remember I colored it at 3 AM and didn’t remember my method the next day. Insomnia art, whee!

(Marked graphic media, for blood.)

Hubby's sibling just popped over and gave us a litter robot as an early Christmas gift?? omg!!
Little Man can't wrap his head around it. He keeps going in and digging for what he left in there initially and it's just gone. He's so confused lol

An early morning remake page! The thing about blood magic weapons is, they kinda don't hold up lol.

7 AM thoughts. I am a bit tempted to reformat the KS zine and put it at the end of volume 3. So it can live on and not die with the unwanted zine 😭 I worked hard on it, dammit!
November 12, 2025 at 12:48 PM
Huh. Just need three more pages to make it a 5-month comic buffer. Can I do it before KS starts up again on the 5th?? 🤔🤔🤔
It has been almost 20 days since I was able to work on chapter 70. I have fixed that! Have a new page!
(Glad all this crap happened while I was still building up a buffer, phew!)

Day 100!! of posting art ‘til my hand is healed. The initial sketches for Kakon and Hisaki’s outfit changes! As you can see, Kakon came to us right away, but Hisaki needed time to cook.

Guess who decided to start feeling better only AFTER I confirmed the appointment?
This cat likes to test my patience 🤣
Gotta take little miss Lucina to the vet again, she's feeling sickly once more. Good thing I get my disability check this week. I'll be able to pay for the appointment. 👍
November 11, 2025 at 5:16 PM
I'm noticing something about the drawing pain. Unless I overdo it, inking/coloring does not hurt me at all.
IT'S THE SKETCHING. >.< No matter how slowly or lightly I sketch, it hurts like hell and if I do it for the same amount of time as inking, I will get an RSI every time. 😭

Once again, I cannot draw a couple pose to save my life, but I apparently can draw two characters convincingly restraining a third character. Bruh. This is getting sad.

Psst you can't tell because it's b&w manga style, but the tones in her hair are red streaks. Because even though Yasha was supposed to be a normal girl from the beginning, apparently she still needed to look special back then lol.
I finished it. Current Yasha meets First Draft Yasha. I wonder who I should draw next 🤔

Day 99 of posting art ‘til my hand is healed. It’s Jordan! Poor girl has been lifted from two separate webcomic ideas and she still doesn’t have a home. One day, friend. One day you’ll have a comic home ;w;
