  Hid episodes 1-13; gonna try a vegan brush!Feb 01, 2023 9:59 PM PST | url
 
Pencils for the next A* page are done. Let's paint tomorrow! : D
 
Speaking of painting, I just ordered a new brush! Exciting! : D I've been using Raphaël's 8404 Kolinsky sable brushes for years and years now, but they've recently come out with a synthetic brush that they describe as having "a vegan fiber"; it's their new 8344 line and I'm gonna try it. : D I haven't found any reviews but they've got a reasonably compelling comparison video, and the 8344s are pretty inexpensive anyway so seems worth a shot. : )
 
My current brush is super worn down and can only do fine lines; I was looking at some pages in episode 35 and realized the better carrying capacity of the less worn brush I must have had there was enabling me to do some nice paint things than I can't do very easily with my current thin old nub of a brush. ^) ^

Okay well the big news as such is that I hid episodes 1-13; if you click "first" on the left below the comic now it takes you to episode 14, page 1. I'm not happy with my representation of some of the characters in the early episodes. It's bad. Not only badly drawn, but actually bad. If you really need them you can get those episodes as a bundle of zipped-up pdfs in a download link at the bottom of the episodes & e-books page; I just didn't want anyone coming across them accidentally and thinking I'm still okay with how I did them, because I'm not. And I don't want new readers feeling obligated to read them.
