If ppl wanna know why this chapter is taking so long, just check this ONE page's line art :)

Young Lyonel walks down an empty western-style street. He then walks down a lonely-looking dirt road lined with empty houses with boarded up windows, tattered wooden shutters, and untamed grass along the old fence lines. He looks forlorn. He walks up the warped wooden steps to an equally lonely house.

#MartyrComic 1x25 "Talons And Blades"

Release: Monday November 24th

Now that the Ripper has revealed himself and cornered Lyonel, what else could go awry? Sora just might find out...

#comic #webcomic #teaser
Lyonel faces Jack the Ripper, a monstrous humanoid in a trench coat and top hat with four spider-like appendages protruding from is back, each equipped with a different butchering blade. The two face off in a narrow alley lined by shipping containers. Sora looks down into the warehouse window, uneasy with what she sees The Ripper's skinny, boney hand pulls out a curious-looking coin from his trench coat, bearing the logo of the Crimson Chimeras. A young, terrified Lyonel stares down a blade as a downpour rages.

Also this one from A&H chapter 31 that I love-

#Aster&Hannya #comic #webcomic
Yaro's merciless assault on Hannya protecting her and Aster's child is interrupted By Aster's arrival. Yaro is positively giddy as Aster arrives, gravely wounded from her fight with Astaroth. Aster reanimates, fully healed. Aster approaches an excited Yaro, vowing to make the demon suffer before killing her. Hannya looks on in dismay. Aster throws off her trenchcoat to the ground. Her trench knives on her hand. The background is a collage of all of her and Hannya's happy family memories.

Oh this is Sophie's choice, I excel at them in all my stories-

SPOLIERS FOR MARTYR CHAPTER 20!

ALSO TW: SELF HARM

I don't think any readers considered someone stooping so low as to off themselves to forcibly sacrifice their partner to get a power up. 🫢

#MartyrComic #comic
Kaito, heavily injured and his partner Titanoboa downed, is backed into a corner. With a wheeze, he picks up Lyga’s discarded sword and plunges the blade into his gut. Kaito bleeds out from his self inflicted mortal wound to the rage, shock, and dismay of Sora, Saika, and Lyga respectively. They look upon Kaito for what he truly is; a demon.. With his last bit of strength, Kaito calls upon his partner Titanoboa. Without so much as moving, the giant snake grants his wish, his soul shattering. Kaito and the giant snake's body is engulfed in blinding light as he gives up his life to revive his master. Lyga watches in shock, while Sora disparages his disgust cowardice.

She may not look it, but Lita has immense control over her mana output- Seventh String is the absolute max amount she can release in 1 shot. While it's vast in her case, her mana is finite like everyone else's, so she can only use Seventh String in a few sporradic chords & not entire songs. /5
Lita generating a massive blast of sound at the viewer.

The Soundwaves generated by, & the strings themselves ARE Lita's mana-- she functions as her OWN amplifier, which is why her guitar lacks a lot of key features of a real bass or electic guitar, but can still function as either. The difference between just sound vs attack is all a matter of will. 4/5
A page of Lita walking along and playing her guitar as it strings itself from a bass guitar into an electric. A page of Lita playing her guitar and tapping her foot as she stands on the rooftop facing the Drunken Serpent club building. A seventh glowing string extends from the head of her guitar to her chest.

Apex LORE dump-

Crazy that these two are BOTH Apexes but it's true.

The form an Apex takes varies VERY widely. Sometimes the resurrected mortal can have very minor or even NO visible changes like Lita, whereas cases like Kaito can have their ENTIRE physiology changed.

What awaits Lyonel and Sora on their solo mission to the port town Taniere?

#comic #webcomic #teaser
Sora and Lyonel turn to face a bulletin board full of missing posters. Sora sneaks along a scaffold under cover of night. She looks down into the illuminated of a warehouse. Sora and Lyonel sit at the table, the conversation looking tense. Lyga and Lita sit on a park bench. Lyga leans forward, pouting as Lita looks over her, intrigued by her reaction.

I know you said you looked at task manager but did you check the startup apps specifically by chance? CSP just put this out a couple days ago and some folks said their lag/freezing stopped after disabling it
CSP update about the program being buggy and slow being caused by OverwolfLauncher.exe

Hey #bunny folks. I need to find a new mat to put down in Ozzy's pen. Every single low pile jute rug/mat I find is like +100$, does anyone have any more affordable recommendations or do I just bite the bullet?

He's gonna pick at/chew whatever I put down so I wanna switch to something safe to eat.

QRP with your meme redraws!

I can't believe the Laios meme was over a year ago I almost forgot I did this

Here's this design WIP I started forever ago now that it's finally in a position to be colored AND I don't have to spoiler Saika's sync form!

Thinking of going white + 2 tone grays and a spot color each. And if it doesn't turn out exactly like i want I'll cry 😭

What'd she mean by that? 🤔

(I loved coming up with the design for Pandora, I think it's pretty out of the box!) #oc #Aster&Hannya #webcomic
Pandora the mother of monsters, a tanned blonde woman with four purple eyes, horns, and the body of a lion with a scorpion's tail taking the place of her lower half, sits under the shade of a tree enjoying a cop of tea at a table. Her pottery workshop is in the back ground. When she takes a sip of her tea, the cop suddenly cracks on it's own. She ponders the cup breaking, saying "Well look at that...", and looks up at the sky with contemplation before laughing gleefully. "Looks like Revenge is finally mine. Bastard" she says to herself. Character page for Pandora, the mother of Monsters. She's a tan-skinned woman with big ears, horns, four purple eyes, and the body of a lioness with a scorpion's tail for a lower half. She wears an apron with a single strap accented with a gold waistband and lattice-style arm braces.

Some pages from Martyr-
An overhead shot of Saika's skeleton bursting forth from her soul jar for the first time, leaving Lyga frozen in shock. A 5-panel comic page showing crowds of people and circus animals fleeing in terror as the big top circus tent catches fire and burns down around them. Saika, scarred and silhouetted very devilishly, stands holding the chains attached to two lions' metal collars as the fire rages behind her. The ringmaster, Gambini, looks on at Saika and the lions in horror. A 5-panel page of Sora showing off her flexibility and skill with fighting with her legs to flip/spin around and kick a bunch of goons in their faces. Martyr Chapter 21 "Resonance" cover. A mostly black and white front-facing bust shot of Saika. A ghastly-skeletal partial mask obscures the lower left half of her face and her hair flows like white flame. A pauldron in the shape of a rabbit skull rests on her left shoulder. In the bits of flame flowing around her, the image is in color.

Some pages from A&H-
A five-panel page of Aster and the Devil as the latter propositions her for a job. A 6-panel page of Aster begrudgingly agreeing to let Hannya patch up her wounds in Aster's taxidermy lab. A 5-panel page of Aster luring a bunch of demons into her trap: she exorcises them with a snap of her fingers in a brilliant blue blaze of holy flame. A full-page shot of Aster, Hannya, and their daughter Morgan walking along a crowded nighttime street during a Halloween festival.

I missed the last #PortfolioDay so-

Hi, I'm Deeg! I'm a comic artist who's authored 2 webcomics: Aster & Hannya (complete, supernatural/romance) and Martyr (ongoing, Dark Urban fantasy). I make thrilling, dark, & gritty but equally sappy stories.

You can find my works here! -> dg-kamikari.carrd.co
The cover for the comic Aster & Hannya. A human woman and demon woman stand back to back armed and ready. In the background looms the three sinister-looking antagonists. The series description for Aster and Hannya. It reads: "This Series is a supernatural/romance packed with horror, action, and thrills left and right. This story centers around the WLW couple of monster-hunting human Aster Ross and her beloved oni wife, Hannya. Both with very dark pasts that come back to haunt them; endangering the lives of their family and friends. A story not for the faint of heart- can love overpower the forces of hell itself?" New series cover for Martyr! Saika looms behind Lyga holding her scythe facing down, the glowing blade hangs just below Lyga's chin. Series description for Martyr. It reads: "In the morally gray world Ambrosia, besieged by corruption, crime, and death- mortals live alongside undying creatures born from the sacrifice of an ancient titan named Martyr. A girl named Lyga Greyfang must navigate a new life when she is cast into the world of Bounty Hunters."

Lyonel sits on the floor next to a sofa eating from a bowl of popcorn in his lap. Sora lays on her stomach on the sofa beside him, her arm propping up her head. The room of 60s era furniture is dark, illuminated only by the light of a movie the two are watching on a TV off-screen.
