Public January Art<\/strong><\/h4>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

I post something publicly every Friday (and sometimes more). These can be seen & shared on my various socials: tumblr<\/a>, mastodon<\/a>, cohost<\/a>, pillowfort<\/a>, bluesky<\/a> and jpawlik.com\/blog<\/a> with sketches and thumbnails up early for patrons<\/a> and kofi members<\/a>, then for free members 2 months later.<\/p>\n

Webcomic Updates<\/strong><\/h4>\n

\"\"\"\" \"\" \"\"<\/p>\n

Alola Darumaka is back in full-swing! There’s four new pages up on Topazcomics so don’t miss those, there’s some real good ones in there!<\/p>\n

Read on Patreon<\/a> |\u00a0<\/strong>Read from the beginning<\/a> | Read starting at page 96<\/a><\/strong>\"\"<\/p>\n

Page 3 of my HRT diary comic is up! I’m going to be posting this as changes happen so there won’t be a schedule for this one other than it’ll go up on a Tuesday!<\/p>\n

Read on Patreon<\/strong><\/a>\u00a0| Read on Topaz Comics<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"\"\"<\/p>\n

Two new pages of “After All” went up for my Private Collector tier! This is a NSFW Jigen\/Zenigata comic written by Michelle. And we’re getting over Zenigata’s insecurities!<\/p>\n

Read the pages here<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The Curtain Falls is also back and updating! If you’re new, this is a longer Lupin III fancomic I’m working that focuses on Lupin in his 60s and dealing with change and retirement. There’s a car chase and Yata’s in trouble in the most recent pages. I’m really proud of it, I hope you’ll read it!<\/p>\n

Read it on Patreon<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

January’s Sketchbook<\/strong><\/h4>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

This month’s sketchbook is up for the Grab Bag tier on Patreon<\/a> and <\/strong>Kofi<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

First new sketchbook of the year is here! Lots of concept art for some projects I want to work on, some redraw studies, and a new format on how I want to draw shoutout requests (it\u2019s been a long time coming)! For my fun new year\u2019s resolutions this year I\u2019m going to draw every bird I see out in the wild and every book\/tv series I finish this year! I did something like that in 2022<\/a> and really enjoyed it.<\/p>\n

Speaking of sketchbooks, if you’re not a Patreon or Kofi member, I posted my entire 2023 collection of sketchbooks over on the Topaz Comics online shop!<\/strong><\/a> It’s a 12 PDF collection of 285 pages of all my sketches, concept art, and fun doodles that I did last year.<\/p>\n

Other things<\/strong><\/h4>\n

– I’m still working full time at my current contract job so I’ve had less time to do personal art but I’m having a great time on this contract!
\n– I’m now a part of the Adult Artists Webring<\/a><\/strong>. Check it out, there’s some real great artists there.
\n– I redid my illustration section on my portfolio<\/a> and I am so proud of the css I did for that! Website coding always feels like a good puzzle for me to solve. I’m absolutely an amateur when it comes to coding, but I can get really in to it if there’s something I want to add to any of my sites.
\n– I made a Patreon-like mirror site for myself over at VIP blog<\/strong><\/a>, it’s not very pretty yet but I think it works! This is a side project I’ve been working on for around a year now, just in case Patreon ever goes under I’ll have a back up.<\/p>\n
