Hi everyone! I'm so sorry for being relatively inactive this month, aside from the comic pages. I've been battling this nasty cold for the better part of this month, so my productivity has been terrible... In this video I talk about some big realizations I came to when trying to figure out why it's so easy for me to lose productivity. Hope you guys enjoy this video, it's a pretty long one!

I apologize that it's not reeeeally early access, since I'll be posting this video pretty soon most likely haha; but even if a little early, here it is.

*LOVE these types of videos, they feel really intimate, calming and insightful! I feel like I always get that more with the sketch and warm up videos from artists. *Oh man, if you end up doing the sketch artbook, I would dig a digital version as well. I'd definitely buy both! *While watching this, I was thinking that maybe if you were doing more sticker packs and what-not with your characters as a constant, you could use the art in the pages between chapters like the old manga artists used to. It would give some extra stuff to post when you were working on other things (Was always a sucker for that). Even adding it to the end of the issues. I'm sure you've thought of it yourself xD

Thank you!! I'm so happy to hear this ;u; That's a great suggestion too, tbh I did not think of it (adding sticker artwork to comics), my mind can be weirdly limited with uses of artwork for some reason haha, so thank you for the suggestion!! I'm gonna gaspedal on the sketch collection now because it's something I've been putting off for much too long now. I will definitely have a digital PDF of that eventually :)
