Toph Heavy Part 3 - Page 20/21 - Final REDO

Hey. We're starting to post Chapter 2 publicly, and as I go through these pages I feel like I need to add stuff or redraw things. Part of this is because of what's going on in my personal life, and...

Bad news

My father passed away this morning. I am heartbroken, but trying to hold it in for the sake of my mother.

I don't know what I'm going to do. I don't know if I'm going to take time to mourn,...

Big update next week or the week after + pH guest page

I've been quiet this month. I took a small vacation, and now I am doing 8 pages at once. It's fine, because the Clip Studio method is pretty quick, but I just have my nose to the grind stone to mak...

Toph Heavy Part 3 - Page 28 - Final

This is the first page that I've done entirely in Clip Studio Paint. I only made some color adjustments in Photoshop and added text.  What do you think?

edit: I'm so tired and...

Toph Heavy Part 3 - Page 27 - Final

Sorry for the delay the past couple of days. This page was lost after 3 days of work, and so I had to do it all over again. I decided after I finished it that I was done working in photoshop. If an...

Toph Heavy Part 3 - Page 26 - Final

Just so you guys know, I am aware that the sketches for Part 3 were leaked. Basically, the leaker sent me a DM asking for future plot points of Toph Heavy while posting "spoilers" publicly on a sep...

Toph Heavy Part 3 - Page 25 - Final

I'm trying to get two pages done per week. I started 25 and 26 last tuesday, and this is where I'm at today. I'm afraid I'm rushing so I may return to these later to fix problems that I'm too blind...

Toph Heavy Part 3 - Page 24 - Final

So, I've been altering the dialogue quite a bit from the dialogue preview. The basic story is written all the way until the end, but there's wiggle room to make things clearer. Towards that end, I'...

Toph Heavy Part 3 - Page 23 - Final

We're back to rendering after a brief detour of flatting the entirety of Chapter 2. I'll probably refine this later but I need to catch up and do pages a little more quickly. Once I'm caught up, it...

Toph Heavy Part 3 - Chapter 2 - Flats - All pages

This includes some pages already rendered, and flats already shown, but I wanted to put it all one post for you guys. 

Toph Heavy Part 3 - Flats - Pages 23 - 34

I'm behind by like 5 or 6 pages, so in order to hustle a little bit, I flatted almost the entire Chapter. There are two more pages to go, and I'll finish flatting those sometime tonight. Then I'm g...

Page 23 Re-Draw

First picture is what I drew a year or so ago. Second picture is the redraw. Stuff will still be dripping. The main reason I did this redraw was because the Toph on Page 22 looks so good that the p...

Checking in with you

What do you think of the past four pages? I'm actually behind schedule by about three pages. I'd prefer to be ahead.  I've been spending too much time on individual pages. Fixing mistakes from...

Toph Heavy Part 3 - Page 22 - Final

So I completely redid this page. It's similar to the original, but tells the story better. Toph looks on model (for this comic) and I like how it turned out a lot more than the original page. The o...

Page 22 Render Progress - 2

Apologies for not finishing this page by Thursday. There was a family emergency the past two days and that has taken up all of my time.

I really liked this redo illustration of Toph in the b...

Page 22 Render Progress - 1

Just wanna keep you guys updated as often as I can. Not finished, but I want to update as often as possible. Still trying to figure out how I'm going to render pretty anime faces that still have an...

Page 22 Redo Flats

Last week I had a computer error where I lost a ton of work. I knew if I started again that I'd be trying to recapture what I lost, and I'd ultimately be unhappy with it. So I decided to change som...

Cecilia Misono

I started offering top Heavy centered commissions in the J-Cup Tier a few months ago and someone finally took me up on it. This is the result. As I've said before, I won't make Toph Heavy forever, ...

Toph Heavy Part 3 - Page 21 - Final

So remember how I said that there were going to be two pages? Well, that's not happening. Photoshop crashed while I was saving page 22, and I lost a week's worth of rendering progress. I try to ope...

Quick update

There may not be a page on the patreon this week. If there isn't, there will be two next week. We had a huge storm roll through this past week. It lasted four or five days. (I lost track) and left ...

Toph Heavy Part 3 - Page 20 - Final

May edit this later this week just like I editted Page 18 (check that edit out if you haven't)

Toph Heavy Part 3 - Page 20 - Flats

I'm thinking about doing these flats in large chunks on days when I don't have a lot going on. So sometime in the next few days, I'll probably flood you with Flats. 

Toph Heavy Part 3 - Page 19 - Final

This was supposed to be done on Thursday, but we had a three day winter storm that kinda pushed everything back.  I think that since the release schedule is now much more lax, I'm going to giv...

Big Thanks

Big thanks to all of you who made this one of the best months I've ever had making art. I am more determined than ever to make good stuff that's worth your dollar. The next page of Toph Heavy Part ...

Toph Heavy Part 3 - Page 18 - Flats

Gonna keep you guys more updated on the process. I imagine I'll get this one done by friday or saturday. 

The Cover + Pin Up

Bit of a Rush Job, but it'll do

Toph Heavy Part 3 Chapter 1 - Cover

Realized I needed a cover for gumroad, so I'm scrambling to get one done. I'm still not happy with page 18. Here's hoping I finish this and make the deadline.  WEEEEEE

Upcoming Page 18 adjustment

Just as I was laying my head down to sleep after being up for over 24 hours, it finally hit me what was bothering me about this. The hands.

So I did a quick sketch in 5 minutes. I ...

Toph Heavy Part 3 - Page 18 - Final

Trying to get ready for release of chapter 1 this thanksgiving. Will probably make some final touch edits. 

Toph Heavy Part 3 - Page 17 - Final

So if you look at page 16 you 'll notice that I redid Hippo. I made him bigger after getting some reference from the show. However, the new hippo of page 16 did not jive with the old hippo in Page ...
