She was just chilling like this.

A classic.

Camera photo of two WIP comic panels. The first one is a guy closing the door the a bathroom while another person is starting to pull off their shirt in the foreground. The guy closing the door saying "It ain't like yuh got nothin I hadn't seen bufore, anyway." The second panel is a closeup of his face, his head turned towards the person undressing. He has an alarmed, upset expression.

(Please pay no mind to the fully guitar, I'm struggling for some reason.)

Finally getting to a personal milestone scene! It's kind of mundane, but playing out this interaction in my head has always been so satisfying! Plus Julian gets emotional, which is never not fun!

Someone spotting someone under a pile of clothes while cleaning. Upon pulling it out the object is an acoustic guitar, in shock they exclaim "You... kept this?" to a guy leaning over a bed behind them to see what's going on.

Apollo's dirty laundry stash.

A photo of three comic panels. A character is contemplating sniffing a dirty shirt before the do, only to recoil back while holding their nose. They're wondering if they should just burn the nasty clothes. In the background another character is exclaiming "Oh. OH! Jesus, you weren't kidding!" Upon having a dirty shirt thrown at his face in a previous page.

Post a picture of when your pet was little.

(The first one is a little sad for me since he passed not too long ago after getting sick. :,D)
A photo of a little ginger kitten lounge on a couch. His name was Basil. Photo of a calico kitten sleeping under a catnip plant. Her name is Cocoa Chanel.

I managed to take this mega derpy picture of Cocoa, and I can't get over it!
Photo of a long-haired calico looking directly into the camera wearing a dopey expression with her tongue out.

Well, it's late and I most likely posted this last year, but Happy Pride! Hope this year will be a riot. (Maybe next year I'll be able to draw a new thing for Pride Month.)

#PrideMonth #Pride2025
Marker drawing of two people sitting at a park bench with a pride parade going on in the background. 'LOVE' is spelled out with balloons, tied to a giant rainbow float. On the bench, one is leaning down to adjust their boot, they're wearing a demi crop top and black capri overalls, and using a heart-shaped pan pin on their hairbun. The other is chewing gum while wearing sunglasses, he's wearing a gray shirt with bi hearts on it, and a rainbow sleeveless hoodie and dark jeans.

Rare comic snapshot, still working on this thing! Julian over here downplaying the seriousness of their living situation.

#webcomics #indiecomics
Two people are chatting in a bathroom while one is smoking and the other is sitting on the toilet, picking up trash. The one smoking ditches the cigarette and goes to the door, turns around to face the other, saying "getting beat up isn't anything I'm not used to, that was the norm growing up in foster care. I don't see how living with you would be better?" The other person is confused, and tries to get up while telling them to wait and say that last thing again, but they leave too quickly. He sits back down, rubbing his face while sighing.

It's kinda funny to see tariffs brought up in the Yawp, and people hated them just as much in the 1800s as they do now.
From a section of The American Yawp. Democracy in America Calhoun returned to South Carolina, where a special state convention nullified the federal tariffs of 1828 and 1832. It declared them unconstitutional and therefore "null, void, and no law" with South Carolina. The convention ordered South Carolina customs officers not to collect tariff revenue and declared that any federal attempt to enforce the tariffs would cause the state to secede from the Union.

Still very, very, very slowly working on pages between work and school.

Two work-in-progress comic panels of two people talking while in a bathroom. One is leaning our the window, smoking, the other is picking up trash while sitting on the toilet.

Picture of a beat up guy looking to the right, he's illuminated by a green light and there is a busy nighttime street behind him. On the bottom a caption reads "The first 12 months of the year are always the hardest."

Got a couple cheap outdoor cat houses through Affirm for the stray kitties that live around my grandma's house. They're either exposed to the elements or need to take shelter under her house, which smells like death and is probably full of disease, I felt pretty bad for them.
Two cedar wood cat houses sitting side-by-side in a loosely fenced off area of a yard, meant to deter coyotes from attacking the stray cats.

1am sad movie rec, because I can't sleep.

Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri - Just finished watching it yesterday, if you're a freak like myself who enjoys heavy fiction you may like this movie! Basic premise is a lady has messages put up on 3 billboards, calling for accountability from -

It's been a bit! Working and school has left me with much time to draw, or much energy, but I'm hoping I'm getting the hang of things.

Human #artist, let’s QRT with our work! 🎨

Old as hell, but I still kinda like how this came out.

.Before vs After
A pencil sketch and a ink layout of a comic page. The contents is one character helping another character, who has issues with light sensitivity and depth perception, to the bus stop. Both are just talking along the way. Full color version of the same page. The coloring was done in color pencil.

Introduce yourself with 4 movies.
Screenshot of Waymond, from Everything Everywhere All at Once, holding a paper lantern with googly eyes on it while looking at the camera in surprise and confusion. Screenshot, from Beyond the Black Rainbow, of a guy in a red bodysuit and red helmet standing in a mirror room with his head down. Screenshot, from Serial Mom, of an angry woman using hairspray and a lighter as a flamethrower. Screenshot, from Tokyo Godfathers, of two homeless women looking over at a homeless man in confusion. One woman is holding a sleeping baby.

Working on them colors.
Pic of four WIP comic panels. The first three showing a character leaning out a window while smoking, they're thinking really hard about something. Then in the fourth panel they lean back into the building, asking another character whose sitting on the toilet, collecting trash, what liking someone is supposed to feel like. The other character responds by groaning "Seriously, Julian?". Another WIP panel of the character leaning out the window, smoking. The colors are blues and purple due to it being nighttime. Yellow light shines through the window.

Me too! Dream goal is to someday have time to draw whatever again, the first couple chapters of Amrox' story is done so I've been wanting to do proper concept drawings since this one is more complex than TGtaHR.

Again, CW for gore. Also found a design sketch from 2017 of one of it's stages.
Drawing of a white god character sporting antlers, elfish ears and black eyes. It's mouth is open in a gaping smile, revealing a row of black, needle-like teeth and a maw filled with bodies decomposing into a goopy dirt substance. Maggots are also crawling from it's mouth. An unfinished sketch of the god's second phase. It has a sort of humanoid lizard shape, it is holding it's tail which acts like a snake and has a sharp, toothy mouth at the end.

Man, I need to get a new blue pen.
Uncolored comic page inked in blue and black. It shows two people conversing in a bathroom while one of them leans out the window, smoking.

Most interesting layout I've drawn in a while.
Wip comic page still in the sketch phase. The top 3 panels are broken up by cigarette smoke. Two characters are talking while one is picking up trash in the bathroom, and the other is leaning out the window, smoking.

🖋️ share some pages with little to no dialogue in your comic!

Not sure if the second page counts since it has text, but it's not meant to be dialogue.
I comic page showing a guy waving at his friends in front of a bar. It's evening so there color scheme is deep blues, oranges and yellows. Underneath is a broken up collage showing the characters doing various activities, mostly drinking. The final panel in the bottom right shows a park light amongst tree branches illuminating the night. A vertical two-page spread, the long top panel shows a mop making ripples in water, the water showing bits of unpleasant text. The two panels underneath is someone ringing out the mop and slapping it into a tile floor in a nearly pitch black room. The person is wearing a blue janitor jumpsuit. A comic page showing someone looking out the window in the middle of the night. He's wearing just a tank and underwear, the page is colored in blues, greens and purples. As he's looking up at the sky he glances down in the driveway, and sees a dark figure walking into the woods with a flashlight. A black and white comic page showing someone leaving a mental health facility called Hopeful Hands, it's in the middle of winter so the trees and ground are covered in thick blankets of snow. As they leave the entrance they take one last look back up at the building, it's dark and opposing with a cross barely visible at the top.
