This is pretty minimal for its image size. I could probably do a lot with facial expressions if I broke out the 3d dolls, but I like the more abstract take.

Hons or Huns?

Actual characters not defined yet.

I don't think I have the time to get this together as a comic today. I don't know if I'd ever get it looking good.
But here's a rough layout before I've designed or shot any visuals. If anyone wants to illustrate this or rip this off, I'm giving you permission right now.

Text:

Serious Person: You act like you're an ally, but you're low-key terfy.

Screwball (Me): I am a bad ally.

Serious Person: Like, you play it like you're being nice but you call people "sweaty" & "hon"--
.
Serious Person: It's passive-aggressive!

Screwball (Me): Yeah.

Bystander A: Whom do you call sweaty and hon?

Screwball (Me): Sweaty huns.

Bystander B: Let's get down to business! To defeat!

Serious Person: No.

Look, one render a day is all I've been managing. Sorry I didn't even do that today!

Did I lose two days of artistic output to compulsively arguing on Twitter with bozos so bizarrely racist that they can't stand to see a single black women in a Lord of the Rings spinoff? Yes, yes, I did.

I joke that I say my name "wrong," which makes it wronger when I make people guess at its pronunciation.

Rejected titles:
• You say my name wrong & that’s my fault
• (Or Raspberry)
• Ni·jáo·ro Psá·kə
• This turned more apologetic than I thought
• The name's the thing
• Es griego para mí

Rolling my eyes at some lad named Isbell

2021-06-07T08:06:10Z

I'm back in this outdoor set & wearing another variation of the Peek III bodysuit because I'm having trouble making myself do anything very new or complicated. And then I read this guy on Twitter & I just got ticked off.

Of course, visuals are a whole different process, so maybe it doesn't compare & I'm being unfair. But I have been "blocked" about a strip when I knew what I wanted to do!

You’d like to think you’re immune to the stuff

So I designed a character back in June & forgot about her?
Um, I’m calling her Lana.
Wait, what notes do I have from June?
“…may be white.” Oh, wow, I don’t think she was finished.
OK. Lana it is.

Ella is here

I thought I had gotten Ella’s hair colour to mouse. Not red, not blonde, not (dark) brown, but a medium-value dull colour.
Render it with a pinkish light, & it looks sort of red. Auburn?

Also I lost a raytraced version to user error. But this will do.

Cold snap, May 2020

I’d like to remind everyone of this.

Text:
“Reminder that global warming doesn’t stop weather from
happening, even freak cold snaps.
The term refers to an increase in global average temperatures
over a year’s time. That will cause a variety of problems, like
deglaciation, rising seas, & habitat loss.
But weather will continue to happen.”

Carrot go braless - the wink

I did this scene as an animation, but what would it look like as a comic strip? Well, something like this.

Nia: Well, I have a couple of very rough comic ideas. What should I work on?
Iris: I need to tell you my story!
Evdokía: I’m still mad at you!
Nia: Guuuh!

Too many ideas, not enough focus.

On a lighter note, I’m not sure when I last had this many high heels in an image.

Well, I’ve been posting daily renders again…

2018-08-22T23:52:59Z

It’s OK now, but I couldn’t get my computer to work for a whole day! Maybe almost a whole day. It was scary, really. Stop laughing, please.

MOGAI mogwai?

2018-02-26T08:38:21Z

My first strip in a long time, and I’m making a joke of someone’s identity! Lovely. e_e

Seriously, though, there are real problems with defining a category based on “marginalisation.” Are bisexual women too mainstream? Are you mogai if you’re just really, really kinky? I’ll stick with QUILTBAG, thanks.

And for those who don’t know, “mogwai” from a Chinese word for troublesome spirits, is the name of the little monsters in the Gremlins movies.

Objectifying Hugo's butt

2017-07-20T21:09:24Z

I’m not thrilled with this for a few reasons, but after fiddling with this scene for a while, I’m putting this composite up just to have a daily post.

Really more of a sketch, but it has panels of a kind, so, sure, call it a comic.

Teats are not pectorals

2017-05-11T10:44:38Z

( Cut for exposed breasts. )

This is an odd strip, but this thing was bothering me. TV Tropes has an analysis page on the trope “Boobs of Steel,” where a strong woman (especially in comics and animation) is also drawn with large breasts. But I’ve noticed that some people don’t seem to understand the difference in real life.
