Here's the official color palette I'm gonna be using (now with hex codes)

A lot of these were taken from the default swatches on Paper, and the others are sort of softened mid-shades of colors that I frequently mixed or stacked for increased contrast.

Feel free to use it for your own stuff if you'd like!

Long overdue answers!

"Where did you go?"

I took a break from every form of art due to some mental health issues at the time that took away my will to do pretty much anything besides work, but I'm doing considerably better now, so you all have to suffer looking at my art again.

"Are you starting over?"

Nah. I'm working directly from the lore that already exists and continuing to make everyone's arcs more convoluted from there.

"Where were you before?"

I ran a little rudimentary HTML site that I displayed all my panels on to share with people. It's no longer up and I will not be making it public again. (I might in the future though?)

"Are you keeping the style?"

Absolutely. The only difference will be a few small anatomy fixes and different panel structure.

"Is this comic going to end?"

Heavens no! The main premise of the story is that everyone is immortal. I'm currently preparing to drop season 210.

Hopefully this helps answer your questions if you happen to remember who I am!

If not, then welcome aboard. You're about to see some truly awful artwork :)

Major account updates coming soonish, friends.

Am I rewriting my decade-old webcomic? Yes. Is it gonna be good? Probably not. But I'm gonna have some fun with it.

If you think you remember me from elsewhere, yes, I'm still the same author. No, I will not be publicizing my old work... yet.

Stay tuned, friends, I'm gonna be compiling it as soon as I'm done with today's work.

A lot of these are for woodcarving and engraving but the methods they use for drawing out the patterns can be applicable across quite a lot of different art mediums. Links will all bring you to YouTube videos. I may add more from time to time.
