Quick "ELK HUNT" and TVD Update

Hey guys!

I delayed Ova shipments to add a few replacement copies for the Larvae UPS/FedEx/USPS either lost or demolished. There are a ton of books going out, so it was bound to happen to a few, but I'm insisting the shipping center slap obnoxious stickers on them and such. If you receive a copy that is badly damaged, please dm me.

The Ova U.S. batch and replacement Larvae batch...

TCO versus TVD: An iPhone

Now we're cooking.

TVD: "Sydney" Page 2

"Sydney" Page 2 WIP

Someone has a little crush.

TVD: "Sydney" Page 1

I've chosen to change the title of the first comic of phase one to the apprentice's name to evade association with a certain film set to premiere around the same time this comic will release. I believe comic 3 will be instead entitled "Dr. Schneider" as well.

Also, dialog is still a work in progress here. I will tinker.

TVD: More weathered shotgun details [WIP]

I generally don't like to post this frequently with updates like this, but wanted to show y'all how things look before the facade starts fleshing out! I've added 5 new brushes to my arsenal dedicated to drawing beat up New Orleans architecture and I am loving how this is turning out. So much better than whatever I was trying to do with TCO. Some close ups of Page 1 of "Apprentice."

New TVD specific technique! (Railing)

A little peak into how I'm handling background/establishing scenes.

Quick "ELK HUNT" Comic Books Update

Back on schedule!

Pictured is the 1st Instar batch. They will be shipped in the morning! Both Larvae tiers (U.S. members) should all have their books by the end of the month.

Ova tier orders to follow quickly after. International members of all tiers, I will begin shipping y'all's first week of October. New Pupae and Moth members, if you upgraded or recently joined at this tier ...

TVD: Catherine's Introduction

Y'all are going to adore this woman as much as you do Ellie, I promise.

If I can be honest, it is seriously tripping me out actually seeing panels I've been visualizing for years come to life. This is going to be such a strong comic.

The Velluto Duo: "Sammy" Pages 1-3 [SKETCH]

I will not spoil major plot points of each phase with the sketch updates. High tiers will receive posts of crucial panels before release with a warning included.

Phase 1 comics:

TVD: "The Apprentice"

TVD: "Sammy"

TVD: "The Dentist"

"Sammy" will be the longest of the three.

ELK HUNT/Francine Update

Hi folks!

We are waiting on a Hurricane Francine to roll through southeast Louisiana this evening. Unfortunately, the 1st Instar book shipments will be delayed. I had planned to drop them off tomorrow, but that is not happening. I also expect to lose power for a few days so no new sketch updates either. This is not going to be a bad one, just a bit inconvenient. I'll holler once the mac...

Just wanted to quickly update those who aren't in the chat.

4th Instar US orders are out, 1st Instar to ship the 12th, followed by international Larvae and Ova mid October at the latest!

I want to also apologize for the lack of content coming out for Patreon, I've been swamped trying to build up my Meta platforms to offset things with Patreon and of course getting the books out ...

"Secret Weapon"

"Fishy Behavior"

ATTENTION LARVAE: Your books are here!

The 1st Instar and 4th Instar batch has arrived!

I am shipping 4th Instar first, then 1st, then ordering the Ova batch. I will update y'all as things go along! I am signing every copy, some with personalized notes, and making sure the appropriate number of stickers are packed as well. I will need to order more for 1st Instar. Keep in mind that I am likely the only webcomic artist curren...

Apple/Patreon: Bull Shit to Come

If you haven't heard, Apple is set to impose a 30% fee on all memberships purchased in Patreon's iOS app, with Patreon refusing to eat the cost or fight for us.

This will potentially all but destroy any momentum many of the small comic artists we've got...

Pen Pals #9 Drawing Teaser

Apologies for being so quiet this week. I went ridiculously hard for the latest episode of Pen Pals. It will be a very special one, featuring Colm and I taking on an exciting prompt both of our fanbases are going to absolutely love. We hope to release Monday!

This will also have been the first video I chose to use the classic Hollering Elk style for. It's extremely tedious to produce a t...

Quick Update!

I'm looking over the files for "ELK HUNT" to assure everything is solid, and then sending in the order for both 1st and 4th Instar Larvae Monday! Also waiting on more stickers/packing materials to arrive. Should be beginning to mail them out before the end of the month! By now most Moths and Pupae should have them. If you're still waiting, let me know in a week if you still have not received yo...

"ELK HUNT" Komik Book: PREORDERS CLOSED

That's a wrap, folks! Thank you SO much to all of you who reached out to order a copy!

I will be ordering/signing/packing/shipping the books by tier as to not overwhelm my noggin and my house. I don't want to make mistakes packing them and want to be sure I can track them easier. The files also need a little more tweaking for the new batches, so working on that tonight, and ordering the ...
