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

\"\"<\/p>\n

I try and post fun public art every Fridays, usually fanart! I post them over on 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 VIP members!<\/a><\/p>\n

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

\"\"<\/p>\n

No Darumakas this month, instead I posted a 3 page Lupin one-shot based on a scene from Porco Rosso. If you want early access to pages, sketches and thumbs check out my Patreon<\/a> or my VIP Blog<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Read from the beginning<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Another HRT diary comic went up! These pages do go up early on Patreon<\/a> and my VIP Blog<\/a>, then up 2 months later for free on Topaz Comics.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

After All wrapped up for Private Collector members, and what a doozy that comic was! It’s a NSFW Jigen\/Zeni comic that Max wrote and I am so pleased with it! Go read the entire thing, and later this year I’ll be posting a PDF on my itchio and a printed version on our shop.<\/p>\n

Read it on Patreon<\/a><\/strong>\u00a0| Read on my VIP Blog<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

July’s Sketchbook<\/strong><\/h4>\n

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

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

This month’s sketchbook! Hope you’re all having a good summer, my contract has me pretty busy but I managed to get some good sketches in. Mostly fun doodles this month, a bunch of Makas, a fantasy Jigen design, some TTRPG doodles from the game I’m running and of course some good shoutouts from my Private Collector folks!<\/div>\n

Swim On 10: Blue Planet
\n<\/strong><\/h4>\n

The final volume of Swim On goes live on Friday @ 12pmEST<\/strong><\/p>\n

Check out the Swim On site on Friday to get the newest and final volume of my shark charity zine. This last volume features 149 illustrations by 134 artists, the biggest volume to date and I am so proud of it! It was a really big job this year so that’s taken up quite a bit of my time, but I hope you’ll support it when it’s out – all proceeds go towards finfree.org<\/a><\/p>\n

Grab that and all the previous volumes here<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

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

Still working hard on my NDA video game contract and we’re nearing the end! Might be working on it into September, but I am so stoked to eventually finally tell you about all this secret art I’ve been doing. My art director is so incredible, Shel Kahn<\/a> so go check our their work as well! The whole team is doing such a great job. I’ve been thinking of doing a slight career shift into video games proper after this and then do personal comics on the side – we will see!<\/p>\n

I’ll be away for a week in August without internet and I am so ready to be away from social media for that time. Posts might be staggered a bit during that time since only some sites have schedule options\/I only have so much time in a day to do art and make posts.<\/p>\n

I’m hoping to do no freelance work from October to December to slowly catchup on all the personal work I so desperately want to do so just know the posts are coming!<\/p>\n

Hey if you’re a comic artist go join the Cartoonist Coop that I’m on some committees for; including the Nib and Ink Fest, and webdesign!<\/p>\n

If you’re a Lupin fan, also check out the Lupin Forum<\/a> I’m hosting weekly art prompts over there, so come draw with us!<\/p>\n

~~~<\/p>\n

What a busy year so far but I was so determined to get my newsletter done and up on time! Tune in at the end of August for the next newsletter.<\/p>\n
