Some Slight Complications
Hey guys! So for the past week or so, I've been caught up in family emergencies and haven't really had the time to sit down and be able to work on content. In the hustle of everything, I managed to lose track of the promised postcards for October patrons that were ready to be mailed last week. Rather than wait around for them to maybe appear, I'm going to be ordering more and shipping them out as soon as I can, along with a bonus gift...
On Borrowed Time: Chapter 2, Page 13
no buffer no problembreaks my all my bonesOn the bright side, my hardest midterms are over! I should be getting more active here again!
Inktober Day 5: Begonia
Clairvoyancy, wisdom, and watchful caution are the things that begonias stand for. Like Absol, they warn of potential danger, but do not directly cause it.
Inktober Day 4: Pansy
Despite common sayings indicating otherwise, pansies represent courage and facing the unknown despite hardship. If a pansy crosses your path, it's silently cheering you on. A little late on some Inktobers because of midterms, I'll be catching up over the next day or two though!
Trivia Tuesday 004
Due to stress, Keaton is constantly molting. The guild often needs sweeping from all the feathers he loses throughout the day.
October 2018 Postcard
It seems Rune and Malachi are all ready to go for a time of spooks and treats!Postcards for October $10+ patrons have been ordered! They'll hopefully arrive and be ready for shipment around the middle of the month, I also ordered a few extra just in case some people decide they want to switch tiers, first come first serve on those.
Inktober Day 3: Hydrangea
Unless paired with other flowers, it's hard to determine the true meaning behind hydrangeas. On their own, they can mean anything from vanity, to beauty, to narcissism, to gratefulness, to honesty, to romantic frigidity. Context is vital for their complex petals.
Speedpaint: The Bluebells Toll
Speedpaint of Inktober, Day 2! I'll be posting speedpaints every Thursday from now on, so stay tuned!
Trivia Tuesday 003
When she's not guiding Malachi, Maelstrom enjoys hearing about his day. Sometimes she gets antsy if he ignores her for a while.
Inktober Day 2: Bluebells
Bluebells, despite their beautiful appearance, are poisonous. They also represent everlasting love and constancy. Perhaps it's toxic to hold on to those feelings for too long.
Thumbnail Wall
Just a little behind-the-scenes thing, part of my creative process is thumbnailing OBT pages on a sticky note, and then putting that note on the wall! This gives me a nice visual reference to how many pages I've planned ahead while also giving my eyes a break from the screen. I can also take the thumbnails on-the-go, something I can't do with my laptop as easily! I'll be posting individual thumbnails in the future.
Inktober Day 1: Daisy
Daisies represent a multitude of things, including happiness, purity, and love. They also celebrate new life... And death. I wonder what she's celebrating? Hey there, sorry this upload is a day late! The 1st of October landed on a very busy day for me this year, but here we are! My theme for this year is flower language, so expect a lot of Rune and a lot of flowers!This design is available on Redbubble for the next two weeks, after October 15...
Patreon: October Update!
Hey guys! I have some exciting news regarding Patreon, mostly in the form of new content! I've been thinking for a while about what I can offer, so here's a little visual for everything coming in October! I'm a little strapped for cash right now while my school is still figuring out how to get my paychecks to me, but I appreciate every little bit! Patrons are what help keep me afloat during the really tough times, and every shift I do...
Bulldozer
This started as a potential postcard for Patreon, then ended up turning more into a general piece of art.Based on this song: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R0eH-YFgU7s
On Borrowed Time: Chapter 2, Page 12
on edge doesn't begin to describe it
On Borrowed Time: Chapter 2, Page 11
eavesdropping isn't polite, Rune
On Borrowed Time: Chapter 2, Page 10
careful malachi, rune's gonna get irritated pretty quickly if you keep using her as a guinea pig
On Borrowed Time: Chapter 2, Page 9
anything other than the canon design for diglett felt like too much tbhno anime eyes this time
On Borrowed Time: Chapter 2, Page 8
it's painfully obvious what order I drew these in, whoops(this was first)
On Borrowed Time: Chapter 2, Page 7
they're the best of friends! that's why she walked away without himAnd with that, my 5 page buffer is complete! Any pages beyond this buffer will be available to $20+ patrons only.
On Borrowed Time: Chapter 2, Page 6
Slight change of plans with this page, I split it up into two to fix some pacing issues. While this is good for the overall health of the comic, it delays a public release just a bit :,)On the bright side, once I get the next page completed a buffer total of 6 pages will be available to patrons while we wait for a public release! This means that $20+ patrons will soon have access past the 5 page buffer!
On Borrowed Time: Chapter 2, Page 5
maelstrom didn't like that idea muchdon't worry malachi, I'm sure it has absolutely nothing to do with anything going on in the previous page.
On Borrowed Time: Chapter 2, Page 4
who's this mysterious man? seems ominousthree more pages of buffer before we return! I have another page completed, but I sadly can't post it until I complete the two pages that come before it u,w,u
On Borrowed Time: Chapter 2, Page 3
New page of OBT at last! I did a lot of them out of order which is why it took so long to post (I didn't finish this until I already did 2 future pages), but on the bright side that means a binge post for you patrons! As usual it's also the high res version of the page.
On Borrowed Time: Chapter 2, Page 2
Sorry for the delay! Hopefully updates will be more regular from here on out. Finally over my illness and got a small break from class.
High-Res Pages (Coming Soon)!
Hey everyone! I'm excited to announce that OBT will now have high-resolution pages available for all current patrons! In addition to seeing pages early, I've begun working on a larger canvas so that you all can zoom in twice as close to the comic without having to worry about pixels getting munched. Unfortunately, I will no longer be posting public pages for On Borrowed Time on the Patreon mirror as a result. You can still view the comic ...
Cut and a Bathe
Just a little warmup art featuring where Rune's hair went (Malachi used his razor to cut the long parts and shave her neck fluff), as well as her pink coloration (her fur was stained with blood from earlier). The whole ordeal was a bit of a to-do, Rune has a lot of fur to work with.
On Borrowed Time: Chapter 2, Page 1
whuuf! School got in the way of art for a while, but finally getting productive again. Here's the beginning of Chapter 2! Rune's got a stylin' new look and Malachi's hood returns along with slit pupils for daylight!
did someone say more falsettoland?
The answer is probably not, but I wanted to sketch out the intro to this song:https://youtu.be/MwVhfBQWTJUI'd like to think of it as a good intro song to OBT's act 2. Whether or not all these characters are confirmed to exist/be alive at this point in the story is debatable depending on how the script ends up.
A big ol' logo!
A high resolution version of the logo I'm using for On Borrowed Time. Needed a higher res version for banners and Redbubble, figured it wouldn't hurt to upload here!
