I am very sorry but I just had a dream about Phantomland last night and I feel an obligation to let you know. you had just drawn a panel where Chie was fighting a bunch of ninjas on top of some vaguely East Asian building. however, you as the author sought to make this arc a more interactive and 3D experience and you stabbed me (the reader) with a samurai sword. the experiment was successful as I swear I felt actual pain in the dream but I bear you no ill will and still love your comic.
Oh man…
This is 100% what I meant when I said the comic is gonna get upsetting. I’ll fucking stab you when you read it
(thanks for sharing that was delightful)
Hey now that tumblr is collapsing you might want to consider following my twitter where I’m the most active! Don’t miss out on these types of delightful sketches for example
(I’ll set up my Pillowfort account soon-ish)
This week on Phantomland: ✨ friendship is magic ✨
I was tempted to show this angle but it hurt the pacing too much
Character from my webcomic!
I’ve actually hated the blackcoat uniform for a good while now because I designed it 10+ years ago and it’s… it’s just bad. The coat is supposed to be a symbol of violent oppression to the point where most people freeze or panic when they see it. It has to look better than this
We should see the new coat in the next chapter! I might be able to write it in pretty smoothly
👌
Next arc’s “token human” is a detective lady
who teams up with our heroes to solve a murder case. She’s disgusted by virus carriers but does her best to keep things professional!
Not sure if I’ll end up going with this design but it’s not a bad start
🤔
So I race-swapped Elias into a black guy recently. Nobody opposed to the idea at the time but I still kinda worry that he doesn’t “look right”… there’s so many things to consider and not many answers at hand. But with this rendering I guess I’m pulling it off? I hope??? God damn that is a handsome dude though.

When did this happen? I just went through the entire archive last night and this morning and thought he was black the whole time…
I edited all the pages featuring him before I ended the hiatus, so around May this year
I joke about this and everyone jokes about it, but honestly their plan was pretty solid. When you kill for revenge you’ll want to prioritize on style anyway.
- Plan A: lure and trap target inside a closed space, attack with swords
- Plan B: if that fails, torture with ultrasound device & execute with gun
- Plan C: if that fails, retreat and blow up the building
The only reason they didn’t succeed was because Jon had astronomically good luck. I guess you shouldn’t write characters out of trouble by luck, but… naah, I don’t feel too bad about it :D
(God I’m glad this arc is ending, it went on way way WAY longer than I originally planned)
