I liked "Shooting Stars" by Bag Raiders before it became a meme.

A little late, but Happy Halloween.

I see the refujeeve takeover of this website is proceeding apace. *sinisterly rubs hands together*

I previously used an Ugee HK1560, and currently use a Wacom Cintiq 16. They're about the same size (16"/40cm), with good resolution and good feedback. I have no major complaints with them.

They're not cheap, though. They both cost me $650, which would be about €550. If you're willing to pay that much, I think it's a good investment.

I was just looking for an excuse to draw everyone together.

I used to use The Sims 2, because I happened to have it installed already.

When it comes to new projects I have a lot of ideas kicking around in my head, and one of them that I've been considering is a daily webcomic. My usual approach to making comics is very slow and deliberate, with my currently-running webcomic updating once per week. So attempting something like a daily comic would be a big departure from that. I imagine I'd have to rely on the writing over the visuals just to make it work.

So I'm curious if any of you have experience producing a comic that updates every day or two, or even if you're just aware of any out there on the web.

Replaced my dying tablet this weekend. It's a slightly different model, so I've been trying to adjust to all the minute ways my new tablet functions compared to the old one. It's hard to alter four years of tiny, subconscious habits.

What awful news... and so young, too.

Fuck cancer.

Loss of files can be heartbreaking. I've had it happen to me more than once.

I have an external hard drive and two SD cards that I back up my comics on. One of the SD cards I keep in my backpack in case, I dunno, my apartment burns down while I'm at work or something.

Yeah, I basically ported over the site layout straight from SmackJeeves, but I guess when I got rid of the SJ subscribe link I forgot to replace it it with a CF subscribe link. I'm a little embarrassed I took me eight months to notice.

If all else fails, you can do it on purpose as a joke.

There's a link to the profile, but you know what? No subscribe button.

Thanks for pointing that out. I'll go and fix that.

I'm still updating my comic on Smack Jeeves, but I'm beginning to consider abandoning it. The number of readers there has fallen to a trickle, and it hardly feels worth the effort anymore when I'm already hosting the comic both here and on Webtoon.

Even with the state SJ is now in, it's hard for me to let go of it. I was a member there for 13 years, man...

Final Fantasy VI is one of my favorite video games, and I based my username off of the Japanese name of this particular esper. Originally "Tritoch" in English, later versions of FFVI used the original Japanese name, officially romanized as "Valigarmanda". This was after I had picked out my username though; my transliteration ended up being slightly different.
