Some drawings that I’ve made but never posted. The Very Pierced Chloe is definitely from this year but the others are from awhile back in no particular grouping or order. Enjoy!
Above: Sketches of Yuuwaku, Rei Crescendo, Sol and Lancet, Lancet Again, and some Graphics.

This is a little scene that came to mind as I put together my List of Irons in the Fire. I was thinking about what events may occur at the End of the World. I originally imagined it as a short comic, but until I have time to actually draw it, here’s a tidied up version of what I wrote for it. In this draft, I forgot to mention that The World is slowly falling to pieces and floating off into space. I’ll come up with an illustration for it later.

I’m gonna be posting scans of old drawings and sketches from my various old sketchbooks and scraps from throughout my collection. I’ll be posting them up Sundays and Wednesdays in sets of 5 until I’m all caught up to only what I’ve done most recently. The sets will mostly be older work for now but I’ll be tossing in a recent sketch here and there.
This is probably a lot to say for 20 unfinished webcomic pages and I know I can be fairly long-winded so if you just wanna skip ahead and click through the pictures I’ve put up, I understand.

It was time to switch gears and work on something else for a little while. Up until that point I’d managed to do a few revisions to some of the comic pages that are up as well as first draft pencils of the rest of the 1st chapter. With that in mind I decided to start working on the site again.
If you scroll through the blog archives you’ll probably come across my “devlog” that I was writing as I first started putting this site together. It’s not the most ground breaking or beautiful thing in the digital world, but I’m fairly content for now. I’ve wanted my own site since the olden days in middle school when everyone was off on the net making their own Angelfire and Geocities.
I was hooked from the moment I found Angelfire’s old html editor and learned

I think I still have an old website from my high school web design class stashed away on a hard drive somewhere. I’ll revisit that in the future. But for now, let’s outline the changes I’ve made since the update that didn’t happen in November.
During the month of Inktober, I posted an announcement of some big update planned for the middle of November. As fate would have it, the Ides of My Month passed by and nothing went up. ↓ Read the rest of this entry…
Final Flame HQ in some of its glory.
Things have been so busy in my life that its been difficult to keep up with this comic of mine. Probably because I seem to insist it should have fully detailed environments on every page. Combined with working a full time job to evade poverty, it’s pretty difficult to scrounge that kinda time.
As a result of my hubris I’ve been completely absent from this site I call my baby. Thankfully, next week I’ll be taking a vacation from work that I’ll be able to use to finish more Mage Punk related work.
Since I’m trying to introduce readers to a fictional world that my partner and I are building from scratch, it feels extremely important that there be environments that can help anchor it as a believable place. I think that as the comic goes on, and I get to introduce readers to more of Chaos City and more of Orbyss in general, I’ll be able to take it easier on the environments and focus more on character focused pages.
Not that I don’t love doing the enviromental drawings, but it’s a major drag wanting to tell a story only to get bogged down by having to spend so much time on so much detail on a single page. Especially when I have so little time as it is. The next page after the one coming up has one more big set piece and after that the rest of this chapter will be mostly character interactions.
