Chapter: Forward Momentum
Characters: Elusion Ist, Marcie, Mew, Shiels, Stpdmnky

Wait what’s this? Did I actually draw a new comic?

Or, more accurately, did current events spur me to draw a new comic out of spite?

POSSIBLY

Anyway, there’s been a hubbub over the new community guidelines Bluesky is instituting that’s riled up the whole artist community. Among some of the dumber terms is a requirement that fictional characters being depicted in NSFW situations are in consensual situations. Which, obviously, is dumb because these characters AREN’T ACTUALLY REAL and that cuts a ton of narratives off at the knees.

Anyway the website’s response to the mass artist feedback was to more or less ignore all the feedback.

And the CEO’s been further crashing out by dodging banning transphobes from the site and getting into arguments with the user base! Joy.

Worst part of course is that this is STILL better than the site the guy in panel 3 owns.

…

Anyhoo, as for that last panel. My Unicron has been something that those specific friends of mine have been talking about stealing for years now. So now they get to do that in fictional form.

Update delay

yeah, new comic is delayed on account of “not 100% sure what direction I’m taking yet narratively”

Next comic status update: still a-drawing it

Yeah. Still a bunch of work to do on this one. Largely because a) it took me a bit to crack the direction b) longer panel count
If it’s done in the next 24 hours, it’ll be a “technically still Friday” release. If not it’ll go up Tuesday and I’ll scramble to get a Friday strip up too that week. And somehow find time for Legends Arceus too, ideally.

I need to take some time to throw together a “next expected update” widget…

Turns out that when you go “hmmm; if I clip the original ending for this strip I can probably still time and it’ll still work fine”, sometimes you then finish the art, take another look, and go “well crud, this DOES need another panel or two after all.”

Anyway hopefully I can wrap this tomorrow (today) once I’m done work and meal prep; working with Clip Studio for drawing comics is definitely still in the teething stages of “nailing down my workflow/rebuilding all my reference assets from scratch/figuring out how long it takes to make one of these things.” Some definite pluses though over my old process of drawing it all in Flash; I’m in love with the results so far.

Importantly though I’m making content again and having fun doing so, so there’s that!
