I think I just wrote the last page of “Decrypting Rita”.

I feel weirdly empty. It’s like I’ve been walking around with this story taking up an ever-increasing chunk of my head for the past four years, and now it’s gone.

There’s still stuff to do. My rough layouts need to be turned into finished drawings. First-draft dialogue may change. There may ( Read more... )

I just spent two and a half hours writing a synopsis of Decrypting Rita. It is approximately 2200 words long, and probably needs editing.

It’ll be around 185 pages. Which will work out to a bit less than 50 pages a year. A big chunk of that time went to ( Read more... )

I was sitting around answering questions in the Illustrator subreddit when I found a link to a neat tutorial on faking toothbrush splatters in Illustrator.

So I tried it out.

I have a friend that draws a lot of porn. Today, she wanted to stretch a little after doing a bunch of Serious Work and posted to Tumblr asking for Interesting Kinks To Draw.

One of the requests she received was, and I quote: “Egypturnash’s Rita, in her dragon chassis, with a big fat cock and balls”. She decided not to draw it, because it felt like ( Read more... )

My site was down for a couple of days due to some complications with it moving to a faster server. Those happened to be days I doodled in.
