I was looking up some data and noticed that this July marks 8 years of me doing stuff here on Patreon. I thought it'd be nice to take a quick look back. I grabbed a pin up every year from 2018 through today (literally drawn today) to see if there is any improvement or evolution.

I'm glad to see I at least improved a bit over time. Hoping I can continue to improve and make a bunch of fun stuff for a while to come.

Yes! Congratulations on 8 good years, and here’s hoping for many more. Interesting to see the subtle changes in the artwork. But it has always been entertaining.

I know this isn’t really part of the post, but over the last 8 years which character have you most identified with?

Hmmm.... Gwen and Ron are the ones I share the most background with. I identify with Lexi's fear of speaking up and just wanting it to happen. Stephanie gained more and more aspects of me as we went on. I have little to nothing in common with Victory, Morris, Natalie or Mercedes.

Also, which character is your favorite and which character would you want to hang out with? And why is the answer to both Lexie? (Kidding)

I think it's fair to say that the leading ladies of all the longer stories (Steph, Gwen, & Victory) are kind of the favs, or else their stories would be that long. Lexi kept getting story beats to make her less of an asshole and get a redemption arc, but they would get cut to keep focus on Stephanie, or Steph literally did the thing that Lexi was originally supposed to do. I'd probably be willing to do a hang with Steph or Victory. They are different enough from me and have things I'd want to talk about. Gwen doesn't have the aspect of a convention artist that I like to hang with. Like she's moderately better than the average comic artist at a convention. Also Natalia and Mercedes haven't been around long enough.

Wow, eight years, congratulations!
