A somewhat new artist who wants to create stories. My current work is The Inherited, which is also my first. I'll do things like progression updates here. You can find the comic here: https://tapas.io/series/The-Inherited/info

Early Daily Comic Update!

Just a single one today because I will be busy goofing around rest of the day. The chapter release should be in 2-3 days, just before New Year!

For anyone who's losing motivation with art, keep going! You might not see it right now, but the improvement is there! I don't have any brilliant advice to give, but keep going anyways!

The Holiday magic has been lessened by the lack of snow. A good many years ago we used to get piles upon piles of it but I guess that's history. It really sucks because I love snow!

I hope everyone is enjoying their holidays! I, for one, have enjoyed all the wonderful food that's available. I also found a bunch of new banger songs to enjoy while I draw.

I am very late with this, but the comic crossed 100 views on Tapas (146 now) which was my original goal. I would like to thank everyone who bothered to read my silly comic. Thank You!

Christmas is close! I get to finally stuff myself full of amazing food for a whole day. I don't expect gifts from Santa, but if he gives me coal I'll sell it to the highest bidder.

According to my calculations, I need to color 2-ish pages every day if I want to release the chapter by New Year's eve. It's a bit rough, but I will accept the challenge!

Today I had my first Sauna in a WHILE. I have become the relaxation incarnate and can feel all the stress burn. If you haven't tried it yet, DO IT.

The coloring has started slow like always :D New things I'm trying especially in the layer management side which are consuming time. Should speed up towards the end

And so the 5th chapter is halfway done. Before and after Christmas I have more time for the comic so I might be able to release the chapter before New Year's. No promises!

Soon it's time for coloring. Now, I have no idea what happens if I color while also shading in the drawing phase. I didn't trial run it so we're going in blind with this one!

According to Bluesky this is my 100th post here. This also means that I have been drawing the comic daily for roughly 3 months which is cause for a celebration! Next milestone is 100 pages done (soon tm).

Lazy Sunday it is. Last night got a bit too wild so I'll have to spend the day being a lazy rat. I did read I have no mouth and I must scream for the first time though. It feels more relevant now than ever...

I don't really have a lot to update today :D Head empty, no thoughts, still managed a page. Now I will go enjoy the Saturday night city before it gets too cold to do that properly.

I think only 10 or so pages to go until the chapter is drawn. Then coloring and then I have 5 chapters done, which means that I can put my comic on other platforms too! I can't wait!

I am almost healthy again! I can finally smell and taste things somewhat normally. Also Christmas is almost here which means I will be healthy just in time to enjoy all the Christmas food.

I love drawing because it sometimes feels like problem solving. I try something different and go "Oh so THAT'S how I should do it from now on" and I feel like I solved a part of a never ending puzzle.

I really really really want a pizza right now but I can't go out yet and ordering home is expensive. I will have to remain patient until I'm healthy again and reward it with a proper pizza.

In the supermarkets nearby there's a machine that squeezes oranges to make fresh orange juice. You just got to put a bottle below the machine and boom, fresh juice! It is the best juice ever made.

I would definitely have time to draw one more page today, but I will rest instead. Never overdo anything when sick! Enjoy ginger tea and YT instead.

Aaaand I got sick. This means that I technically have more time to draw, but I also draw slower because of the flu. Maybe my new profile picture was cursed? I hope it's a short flu :D

ALSO I have put up the Christmas decorations AND I made a Christmas profile for myself as well. Like I said in a previous update (some time ago lmao), I think being an elf fits me better.

Thank god weekend is near. Work is getting me exhausted and I need a good rest. I also find it easier to draw when I'm not completely tired
