Howdy. Been a hot minute, eh?

Soooo a lot has happened this month, to me at least. So I think it's time I make my monthly update log to catch everyone up on what's been going on and what I've been up to alongside general ramblings, art sharing and such.

Ok so, Eterniaquest. I've been struggling with how to name the comic for a while now. For a hot minute I wanted to call it Everquest until I realized thats an actual video game soooo Eterniaquest it is. Work on the digital version of the comic has been very slow and daunting. I don't feel as confident about my art skills when I work digitally as a lot of the things I can get away with in sketch don't work anymore with pixels and a brush. Some stuff I wouldn't imagine any other way while others just suck now and demotivate me instantly. I've been struggling with the second page. Considering how fast I made the first my motivation for the second is in an all time low and I'm not sure what to do with it. I don't want to hire people to draw the comic for me as I don't have the money for that and it doesn't feel right to me. I have to fight through and hopefully get this done sometime soon. Meanwhile I started work on the next issue and I have a full arc already planned out alongside the whole story of its world and such so it can connect with my other works. All will be revealed in the future. For now here are some personal highlights of concept art and 1 panel for issue 2.

Final boss concept art... Current prototype name is "The Lich King" inspired by adventure time and warcraft.

Back cover art for the issues. Each issue will have a list of villains and characters in the issue, inspired by Scott Pilgrim and adventure time's "Stakes" arc, to indicate how far in into the arc we are.

Cover art??????? Maybe????????

King Stephens final design. Big bad, king of dark magic and all of the lands as it were. Keen eyes might notice similarities to another design of mine and this one. It'll be explained in lore.

Insect mania grows rampant as the famous non British known simply as "The Insects" release their next film and studio album, "We require your assistance".

Test talk sprite art if I were to make an rpg maker game with these guys. Not likely but fun to think about.

This is just for fun. I can have that too! Right?

One of the panels for the second issue.

Smug mage Sheemz.

Just something I drew based on the menus in Sola-to-robo

That settles the comics for now. Moving onto games.

Defective Detectives has been on hiatus. As mentioned before, I think, the demo is complete. Only thing left to fix are the many grammatical errors, textboxes and like one boss fight. That's it. Maybe add like two or three more npc's. Problem being, one of the main characters. I had a big falling out with one of the "victims" in the game alongside many other people. And they are fairly prominent and important characters in the game. Which means I need to do a full rewrite. However I finally started cracking down on that. The game is now being made fully independently and not associated with splatmatic, one of my friends studios, outside of things I can't do like code and music. Redesigns are in the works and it'll connect with Eterniaquest so stay tuned for that. The short answer to this is stuff is being made and completed finally and hopefully I can get the demo out at some point, still no date sadly.

The only thing I'm showing off for the redesigns, and it's Ant!

Next on the chopping block... irl! Yay...

Alongside coming out as pan, gentlemen I am open, I also changed my username! Dorfde doesn't site right with me anymore mostly due to old past related garbo. It's associated with a cartoon character that is based on me and people grow a fandom over and I don't really like that nor feel comfortable about, and while I would love George to be my username(no offense to all the George's out there in the world) I think Jude sounds a little better. Also I wear glasses now! My vision is half fucked. It's +0.50 which means stuff up close is like really blurry to me. Also my focus is completely fucked! I can't focus on a single dot for shit. Hence also the glasses. Apparently these are supposed to help. Even though now I look like a walking nerd emoji. Uhhh college still sucks! That hasn't changed I think it only got worse. I'm supposed to go to a con mid April but money is a bit of a problem so I guess we'll see. Not sure how April's gonna turn out but March was fine I guess.

I'll probably digitalize this. Maybe.
