HEY GUESS WHAT

Chapter 2 of my webcomic, Tales from Alderwood just finished!! This chapter is almost 180 pages of adventuring, jokes, fist fights, and a little intrigue sprinkled in, so if you’re into that sort of thing, please consider giving it a read!

It updates Mondays and Fridays, it has a cute owl in it, and it’s freeeeeee 🦉

Turning into a walking map hazard was a lot of fun. Doing it with a wizard's health pool made it... challenging, but still fun nonetheless lol.

My main webcomic

Tried painting my boyfriend's grandparents' wedding portrait in a vintage style. This is very different from my usual style so it was an interesting project to tackle lol

Anachronism

(process/thoughts under the cut)

Throughout our current campaign, our drow rogue Llthrys has really loved dropping fun little anecdotes about his hometown. "In Menzoberranzan, we would feed sickly children to the spiders" sort of stuff. The rest of our characters found it shocking at first, but after spending so much time together, we started adopting these Llthrys-isms into our own speech. They're a lot of fun, but I think the other party members are better at coming up with them on the fly than I am lol.

I don't have a lot of confidence in being able to tell human-made art apart from AI-generated stuff, so I'll occasionally look at discussions in communities where this is a regular thing. Sometimes their reasoning makes a lot of sense, but other times they'll cite things that remind me of things I did myself with my own two flesh-and-blood hands.

(art is mine btw, thankfully I haven't been accused of using AI... yet)

Our rogue becomes an absolute death machine whenever I cast Haste on him. 10/10 would recommend

たまには他の人がforeign languageで話して、ほんの少しのEnglish words以外にその語りの意味は全く分からない。

I drew my boyfriend's mom because she's got crazy drip 🍋⭐

So I haven't really advertised this a whole lot, but I've been working on a long-term project wherein I'm trying to make custom tokens for every character/creature that shows up in the D&D 5e adventure Curse of Strahd. So far, I've finished up Death House / the opening, the Village of Barovia, random encounters, and Vallaki + its surrounding areas. It's still a work-in-progress, but I've been releasing a new pack every month as I chip away at this thing.

Most of them are available for purchase (or included as a member perk for all paying members) on my Patreon, but this month I did the fated companions as a free pack for anyone to download.

Anyway if you're running a virtual game of CoS or you're in a game and your DM is looking for art assets for every single character, please consider checking it out-- you can either make a single purchase for everything I've made so far, or you can drop $2 on a monthly membership to pick up everything (including other series of custom tokens I've made) and help support my efforts as I continue to make these going forward.

Happy hunting, and beware the mists, brave adventurers! 🧛‍♂️🦇

"Is that a corvid in your pocket or are you just happy to see me?"

Thanks so much! It's admittedly frustrating not being able to catch up on work and slowly watching our buffer of webcomic pages dwindling, but it's also nice being able to at least draw for myself in the meantime.

I'll do my best! 💪
