CG Comparison - Lance Intro

So this is just to show the original Lance intro CG I did with the revamp. Originally I just did this mock up of a intro CG planning for Lance's...well...intro. But I didn't have any of Lance's BGs done yet so the one used in the old CG is actually Morgan's apartment. 

I eventually re-did Lance's outfit and later still, his hairstyle. So the first one was completely inaccurate. I also wasn't entirely sure I'd be able to use that CG ...

Sprite Updates

So this week I did a little bit of sprite work, including updating some existing sprites. I decided to add a little bit of design work to one of Van's prosthetics. I had always intended them to have a design on them because I didn't want them to be the standard futuristic "robot arms" - there are some of those in the game, but I wanted Vans to look a little different. 

And pretty. I revisited her sprite art and gave her arm some glo...

26/12 Patreon Devlog

Hi everyone!

Time for this week's devlog and the last devlog of 2020!  I hope you're all having a lovely Christmas and/or Boxing Day. 

At this point we're all getting used to end-of-year posts that state "It's been a rough year" but...man, has it been a rough year. It sometimes has felt like every bad thing has been stored up and suddenly dumped out this year. 

Every personal struggle this year has felt magnifi...

Caissa Shower CG - Process

The process of creating the Caissa shower CG (fully CG is below as well).

So yeah, I mean, it's self explanatory really. It's just some process shots of creating the Caissa CG I did this week. Sometimes I draw a BG from scratch - but I honestly try to use existing ones and fit the characters into them if it's at all possible. It just saves time and keeps things consistent.

You can see the process from creating a 3D model to give me...

19/12 Patreon devlog

Hi everyone!

Time for this week's (somewhat boring) devlog.

It's one of those weeks where not much happened. Not that there wasn't work that was done...Just that the work is me writing and that's it (see below).

The Ramble:

Yup. I wrote a lot. The end.

22/11 Patreon Devlog

Hi everyone!

Welcome to this week's devlog where I have very little to talk about other than being trapped in the endless cycle of death of and rebirth….I mean…...writing.

Which feels similar. Except with less rebirth and just lots of internally dying over and over.

I MEAN. IT WAS A GREAT WEEK. I LOVE WRITING.

LoL

Summary:

• Potato Jack is basically done
• One BG….just one.<...

Caleb Wallpapers

Hi everyone! Just wanted to post the Caleb wallpapers created for reaching one of our patreon goals a while back.

Because I have ended up struggling to get Jack's route finished and am trying to stay focused on writing, I ended up commissioning these from my friend AlwaysJMB, who is the developer of The Closet Door. 

There are two attachments to this post - both are the same artwork. One is just a .png while the other is a .jp...

Jack CG Teaser

Yup. Just a cropped teaser. But even so. SMOOCHES.

Character Design Sneak Peek

A character design for a project that does not exist yet. But sometimes...I just draw stuff. But he could be a potential love interest in a future Steampunk fantasy game.

(His name is Seth)

There's not much to say about him. He's a super old character of mine but the project he'd appear in doesn't really even exist yet outside some notes. Even so, sometimes it's fun to let myself breathe a little by setting GS aside to doodle on ot...

08/11 Patreon Devlog

Hey everyone!

Sorry for the late update this week. I was going to do it yesterday but ended up having a severe episode of vertigo that lasted most of the day. I was essentially limited to lying on my back and not moving all afternoon.

It was pretty horrible and I wasn't really able to do much at all.

Anyway, here is the devlog a day late
