[M/M NSFW COMIC] FUMBLING THE PIZZLE+ FULL COMIC!!! (FINALLY) + Art Ramble. (Patreon)

After I started to compile my comics in full in their finale posts, a couple of people requested I do the same for FUMBLING THE PIZZLE, which I believe was my second long-form NSFW comic to be posted here - though, in a way, I count it more than Corellon's Funniest Prank because of how involved this one (and Unordinary Circumstances and Ovidian Miracle) was in terms of background and rendering in general. Don't get me wrong, Corellon's Funniest Prank still looks fine, but my standard for how my comics look went up quite a but since it.

In fact, I still don't love how Fumbling The Pizzle turned out. I was venturing into a new IP that I had little experience drawing, as well as experimenting with my style more than usual. I remember being quite frustrated at times with certain pages and poses, to the point of going back and redrawing entire panels and STILL not being happy with them.

...However, I've been doing this for 10 years now. I am happy to say that I am at a point where dissatisfaction like that is not a deterrent - quite the opposite, in fact: I try to make teaching moments to myself out of them. I end up studying my own art and picking it apart often, and it's something I am more or less able to do without letting it impact my confidence in my work. I think it's okay to expect more out of yourself - healthy, even - assuming you can also be patient and understanding with yourself. You might know exactly what needs fixing, but figuring out the how can take weeks, months, years - yet, every step of the journey is wholly necessary.

Point is, I think my comics since this have been far stronger, but I still like this one for what it is. I love the dialogue, the dynamics I managed to capture, I ADORE some specific panels specially at the start and the end, not to mention how this marked my venture into long-form NSFW as a staple in this account.

...Anyways, sorry for the repost of sorts! Hopefully the write-up was a somewhat interesting read even if you aren't interested in seeing the comic again. On that note - sometimes I wonder if I SHOULD be reposting things more often - with how frequently I release new art, I wonder how many people have NEVER seen anything that's older than a couple of months... On the other hand, that can get kind of annoying 🤔 Leave your thoughts below if you have any opinions on this.

And as always, yet most importantly, thank you for supporting me and making comics like these sdbnm,(<- my cat walked over the keyboard, I am leaving it here because I am choosing to believe this is her attempt to also thank you for helping pay for her medicated food, pfft) and even BETTER ones possible!
