also agatha is the funniest bitch in this comic
i love comics lmao
still figuring out how to transmute the exact colors i want but it's forward momentum i think!
look at me i'm doin it i made the aesthetic ink drawing photo with all the tools in
weird take maybe but i still think this bit in the third panel is up there for my favorite little bit of worldbuilding and individual characterization i've done so far. i doubt Efficiency is a thing i'm known for but i was really on top of shit that day hehe. the archive isn't updated with this chapter yet so the page is here if you want more context
i like this one a lot too hehe
Wow jesus christ this file will NOT stay where I put it for some reason, I swear I've posted it here before but I must have chickened out or it deleted itself or Something. Which is very like Appropriate but I'd like it to exist somewhere so here's an unmixed Toulouse Theme I made around three years ago if you want it! Like I said it's technically unfinished, there's a lot of Ringy Noises in there and it's all a bit loud, so if you have tinnitus please take care lmao

It took me a minute to find time to get this done and like, catch my breath, but the Volume 4 preorders are done with! We sold exactly 99 books, what a cool number! I think I sold about ten when Volume 3 preorders were happening, not to mention earlier this year I thought I'd be getting ready to close up shop due to lack of support right now so I am. ridiculously pleased with how this all went, I can't believe we did all this without a kickstarter or any bullshit fomo marketing, it was all word of mouth and I'm really proud of all of us. thank y'all so much for showing up.
Smaller, quieter reminder post: there's about a week left to preorder Volume 4 AND get some kc books to finish your set before the prices go back up! You can find all of em here:

By the way, Volume 4 IS going to cost the same as the other books in the end, it isn't gonna increase after the sale is over! You just get all the fun special edition stuff at the regular price because I Wanted To as a thank you for helping me get them printed lmao
Also: I totally forgot to mention it in the newsletter because of the book news, but October is the last month to get on the list for the December round of supporter postcards! A few folks have overlooked the tiers on Ko-fi since I set them up, so here's a link to those too if you like:

Thank u! It's going really well so far, I think just doing a stupid long preorder window is the way to go since. This entire readership is neurodivergent, and while I know there's no way to avoid getting one or two disappointed people who miss the deadline I'm still hearing from folks who appreciate the reminders, so I'll keep posting them.
I'm a bit confused about Lucky Noon's not-a-contract with Phin. If Lucky Noon decides it's time to leave, wouldn't they lose the ability to move around the world?
It feels like that makes it a bit difficult for Noon to leave the party, formal contract or no
It would, but noon spent long enough with someone who kept them stagnant they'd rather be motionless as a choice than attached to someone they didn't respect hehe. they're done being tied down to anything they don't wanna be
If the team were to disband, where would Toulouse, Ulrich and Agatha most want to be dropped off?
man this is a neat question but i don't think we've collected enough distinct locations to choose from hf. I do have a vague au I ponder a lot where Agatha takes her bike and basically works as a sprawl witcher, if she finds herself on her own for some reason
What's your favorite anthro design in Kidd Commander to draw? Any favorite character designs that don't get to shine as much?
My ultimate favorite anthro i've ever drawn is the fucking goat groundskeeper phineas met in the graveyard lmfaoooo
hum, i really really enjoy designing the different noon forms! and getting to mash them up when more than one crew member is hanging out. noon doesn't get enough screentime at all :(
this is the cutest little guy ive ever drawn and he's a bit part who fuckin sucks im so mad lol
