Some Updates
First thing I want to say is that payments for this Patreon account continue to be paused. This is because my productivity has dropped significantly due to my day job and I've been taking a class online for the last several weeks. I do not like bringing it up because I feel like I am making excuses, but I thought I...

Production Notebook - 9/17/20
I've been wading through reference material since the beginning of the year. Compartmentalizing it into categories. Deleting stuff I don't need. And most importantly, reducing how much I collect on a regular basis.When I re-designed Chad from Jockstrap Academy, I did it mostly from my reference mood boards. The...
Production Notebook - 9/16/20
I always wanted Leo to have a lot of hair, but gave him a short 'do in the original comic because it was easier to draw. Most of the aesthetic choices in 12-Inch was very late 70's - early 80's (corded telephones, console TVs, etc) because thats when some of my favorite sitcoms were based.But Leo's hair...
12-Inch Roommate - Chapter Loglines
The goal in rebooting 12-Inch Roommate was to create more fully realized stories. The original comic started as scribbles with not much concern for narrative or character and it evolved into something with more direction. So, this time around I wanted to start with stories that were as strong as possible.I am conceivin...

New 12-Inch Roommate = New superintendent. This is Mr. Cornwell, aka "Cornhole" as he is called behind his back. He's your typical grumpy sitcom-super: he's annoyed when he has to do work, he's constantly on the look out for people violating the rules and he doesn't have much going for him.The i...
Production Notebook - 9/13/20
It feels like every time I start to get into a groove of productivity with my comics, everything else in my world collapses around me shortly after. I tell myself that I'm just not organized enough or my routine isn't strong enough - which maybe true - but it is also just as likely that too many things are flyi...

Patron payments for August = Paused
Work and life has unexpectedly picked up over the last few weeks which was slowed my drawing and writing substantially, so as I catch back up and stabilize my time I am going to pause patron payments for August.I don't like to underdeliver.

HCAF - WIP
This is my first pass on a idea called “Hard Corps Action Force”. Its not there yet but sometimes you just need to get it down on the page and see if it works. Do we need more LGBT superheroes?

Sketchbook - from last week
Another page of sketches before the next comic posts tomorrow. My ref folders are overflowing with subjects (photos, drawings & naughty vids) ready to be studied. While experimenting with my storyboard work stream I visualized a little sequence (above and below).
Storyboards (first pass)
In between getting the next comic ready (coming on Friday) and trying to not eat everything in sight before immediately taking a long nap, I've been brushing up on storyboarding - which usually involves getting really comfortable scribbling out a hundred drawings or so that you're just going to re-draw later or...
Sketchbook - from Last Week
I wanted to get a full 12-Inch strip out by tomorrow, but work has been eating me alive and didn't get as much time this week. But I have been doing some sketching from my ref folders. They are drawn from photos, drawings and porn.
12IR - Strip #009 WIP
Really getting a hang of drawing directly into my Ipad. But I still have to do everything in passes otherwise I miss little details.
The Thoughts 1-6
I recently drew a Disney's Muses-inspired piece of Thoughts 1-6 from the off-broadway, Pulitzer Prize winning musical A Strange Loop. If you have not heard of the show, it's about a queer, fat, black writer, writing a show about a queer, fat, black writer, writing a show about a queer, fat, black writer, etc et...
Sketchbook - Round Up (June)
In terms of focus, June was a particularly difficult month - lots of office and personal stuff came in and blindsided me, making it tough to stick to a regular comic making schedule. However, I did make some progress in other areas that have been in need of attention, including finally getting the Abel Boddy site updat...

12IR - OOH
Like everyone else, I've spent the last couple of weeks wading through the political mires of social unrest and police brutality. So I'm feeling a little off my game and as if I am avoiding some projects right now. But in truth I am just taking inventory of everything, including old ideas and sketches and the m...

An Update on Sales Tax
I wanted to address some changes that may affect some of the pledges on Patreon. Due to new laws passing in several countries and US states, Patreon will be required to start charging sales tax on some pledges starting July 1st.Less than half of all patrons will be charged sales tax, and for most, the amount will be ve...

12IR - Ruff Explores
Been using some old scenarios and images to explore the new 12-Inch character designs. I spent pretty much the entire Memorial Day weekend locking them down and working on upcoming strips.While I really enjoy doing them in black and white I may do a story or two in color.

Monthly Blog - "Rising Signs"
With my rising sign in Cancer, I am supposed to crave movement - however these last few weeks beg to differ. Every day is a struggle: moving from my computer, bed, shower, sofa etc is a challenge and I do not flatter myself by believing it is different for anyone else.I am a homebody, I enjoy my apartment, I enjoy my t...
