Throwback🦇 The new Wednesday season was .... 😬 lolll lots of cute outfits at least 😭 I really wish they took the writing and lore more seriously and had some character development instead of stacking pointless plots on top of one another. Mild spoilers ahead - I was so bored and underwhelmed by the first part that when the second part got released, I couldn't even remember half of the things that happened 🫢. One of the worst things about it was the doubling up of tired tropes, as if using it once isn't enough... a woman who was was thought dead but is secretly alive in some dungeon?? Let's have two of those! 🤪💀 A secret murder committed by the parents? Surprisee they did it twice 🤨 Anyways, maybe season 3 will be better🥲 What did you guys think about it?

★New Page is UP!★ On the website, and on Patreon! My posting schedule on Patreon is 10 pages ahead of the website ✿ If you like my comic, joining on Patreon is a great way to support the project and get some behind the scenes snippets and early access! I wanted to show you guys the process all the way from the final panel back to the thumbnail chicken-scratch. As you can see it's a lot of steps! I'm still figuring out the best approach to get to the finished look, and thinking I might tweak some things in the Chapter 2 Production. #originalcomic #comicartist #indiecomic #characterdesign

I am ready for spooky season 🍂🎃 Noelle and Alma 🧡 #independentartist #traditionalartwork #characterdesign #ink #inkillustration

★New Page is UP!★ A few chapters into the script it's looking like Noelle's sad running mascara is going to become a reoccurring gag in the story 😂😥 From the beginning, I decided to go slow and steady with the script without info dumping character intros or quick story setups. All will be revealed in due time 😌 You can read my comic at Gloamingvale.com! #originalcomic #indiecomic #comicartist

Sketching ~

Welcome to my office. Confession: I have 2 labubus. And a pile of misc paperwork I've been meaning to sort out for several months.

Astrid and Alma of the Ringwood family - one of the 6 founding families of Gloamingvale. The Ringwoods are still one of the wealthiest and most respected, unlike a certain other family whose status and wealth has plummeted over the centuries... These two are finally about to make their first appearance in the comic (On my Patreon update schedule☕️~) Astrid was only supposed to have a very insignificant BG role, but that has actually shifted substantially since I plotted out some later parts of the story. Her major plot doesn't kick off until much later on... but she sure has her own family secrets to dig up. ⏳ And who knows how Alma's story will play out? That's the greatest fun of writing, patiently watching as the story reveals itself as if I'm just pulling it out from some other place 😌 #originalcomic #comicartist #indiecomic #characterdesign

Testing out the IG editor app 🧐 Gloamingvale characters!!! You can read my comic at Gloamingvale.com ❤️‍🔥 #characterdesign #comicart #indiecomicartist

★NEW COMIC PAGE IS UP!!★ Remember this portrait of Fiona? Can't believe he's finally being brought to life again on actual comic pages. Even though it's been yearssss since I made that portrait, his face still retains the silent misery essence, the reason for which will become apparent as the story unfolds... ​​​​​​​​ Read the comic at gloamingvale.com or 10 pages ahead of schedule on my Patreon! 💗 And please leave a comment 😚​​​​​​​​ ​​​​​​​​ #indiecomic #webcomic #originalcomic #characterdesign
