Hi all, just wanted to let everyone know that I'm still here, and I hope to start up Sea Legs again soon- this break has been nice and relaxing, but I can't wait to get back to it. Thanks for the patience!

Hi all! Thanks again so much for all the support, I really appreciate it! In between episodes of Sea Legs, I'll be uploading random illustrations(personal, commissions, or fanart) I've done in this separate series.

The colors in your comic have such a vibrant appeal, yet don't clash at all! Very masterfully done, and are very inspiring! Thank you so much for sharing your story and artwork on Tapas dude :)

Thank you so much! It's taken years for me to hone my style, but I'm nowhere near finished with that journey, haha.

Been listening to some cool music, and found one that might match Sea legs: Ocean Blue, by Nanobii....Could you give a listen?

Ikr? I love that song- I thought it would make a nice background to the comic, but it's up to you. nanobii makes really chill music.

Neal D. Anderson creator Oct 02, 2017
For sure, I'll keep it mind!

Thanks! I couldn't tell what color her skin was- is that right? I can change it if you like.
Neal D. Anderson
Neal D. Anderson creator Sep 27, 2017
You're accurate! She's white, but she gets a tan throughout the comic. I realize my colors are so vibrant, it might be a little confusing, haha. Thanks again!
