Hey i'm asking around what people are using to create their art. Do you use a tablet? a cintiq? what kind? Thanks!
Hi! I use a surface pro laptop and I have the surface studio desktop; they're expensive but amazing machines. In terms of software, I use photoshop and clip studio (formerly manga studio, no idea why they changed the name.) Good luck! :)
Whoa nice equipment! i might not go for that since i am a humble hobbyist but thanks for the info! I'm thinking of pairing photoshop with clip studio also when i finally pick some tech! Thank you! your art blows me away!
So this is kinda a big deal... I'd been trying to decide when to take the next step with the series and get a little more serious, and I guess now is that time. Wildskies got approved for publication by Comixology and Amazon, and the first volume is now officially for sale here:

The second volume will be out in a few months, and include the chapter I'm currently finishing. After that, I'm going to have to decide if it makes sense to still publish pages for free here, or if I need the book to make some money, lol.
In the meantime, thank you to everyone who has subscribed and commented and supported me so far! <3

Sooooo.... I'm clearly running behind on some stuff. Believe it or not, it's mostly good news: I've landed 3 major contracts (1 children's book, 2 graphic novels) so my schedule just got incredibly busy. Folks here on Tapastic probably wouldn't know this, but I also do a Dragonriders of Pern fancomic, and my fellow Pern fans have been patiently waiting for an update for months. To make matters worse, it's the LAST PAGE for this short story, where we finally see the baby dragon, Ruth. It's kinda a big deal, and I'm trying to get it wrapped up for them. Wildskies page 31 will be up shortly after that, and I'll still be plugging away at it, updates will just be a bit more infrequent for the next couple months while I work my fingers to the bone. ;)
Thanks in advance for the patience!
Thanks in advance for the patience!
There probably won't be any new uploads until after the holidays, but for anyone who follows me elsewhere for the Pern fanart: YES, I am working on a new page. Pencils are done, I'm starting on inks/backgrounds now. I'm going to try to have something for you soon! <3
Also, if you're a fan of the Deverry books (like I am) by Katharine Kerr, she's just started her own Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/user/posts?u=4574164
You get access to short stories and other little exclusives, plus her husband was diagnosed with Alzheimer's several years ago, so Patreon is helping her to keep writing and still be able to pay for his care.
That's all I've got for now, happy holidays everyone! :D

First of all, 1k views! Woot! Thank you everyone who has subscribed and commented so far!!! <3
The last page was the end of Chapter 2. And Chapter 3 is like... ridiculously far away from being finished. Page 26 is a time-suck vortex from which no shred of my dignity can escape. Also, I've had a bunch of commissions come through in the last few days (which is great--I'm NOT complaining). I'm finally starting to clear my desk again, but I'm thinking I won't start posting what I've got of Chapter 3 until the 16th.
In the meantime, I had fun making a new banner for my website. ;)
Thank you again, everyone. I'm more grateful than you could possibly know!

Plugging away on Chapter 3... I'm. So. Slow.
At least I've just finished a contract for another comic series so my schedule clears up a little bit for the next couple days. Now the struggle will be focusing on work instead of getting distracted by World of Warcraft. :P

Okay, so I've finished work on Chapter 2, and after checking out the forums here, I realized it's probably better to set a schedule for updates instead of doing them all at once when I've got a chapter finished (if you prefer reading continuity like I do, then I apologize in advance.) So I'm going to be updating on Wednesdays for the next few weeks... until I run out of new pages, anyway!
I'm working on colors for chapter 2 currently, and doing some more development stuff for backgrounds in chapter 3. Thought I'd try posting some concept art. :)
Nice work – very original!
