Eighteen Eighty one

Edit: thanks to Reddit user garlic_lollipop who pointed out that the comic was missing the last panel! It's fixed now.

New Secret Knots comic: "1881".  If you know someone who you think would like it, you can easily share it with the button to post on Mastodon, Bsky, Facebook, etc. That's how people get here most of the time.

This comic was brought to you thanks to the support of kind Patreon subscribers, such as Phil Gooch.

I'd love to have a palindrome that made sense to add here in the text, but I think I've had enough of flipping things for a while; there will be a full dossier post about this comic, with extras and references, on Patreon soon, though. 

Wait! Here's one: ailihphilia ;)

The Secret Notes 30-May-17

 This is from the upcoming comic on the Secret Knots, a story that peeks into interdimensional territory (!). I’m taking this chance to remind +10 tier patrons that you can ask for a drawing: this time I intend to use this high contrasted, psychedelic glowing forest as background, so all you need is to send your reference photo to gemeloperverso@gmail.com with ‘patreon avatar’ in the subject.

Thanks everybody once again for your support and see you soon with a new story.

New Comic: early look

Me: I’ve got a weird idea for a comic.
Inner me: make it weirder.

And that’s how some of these stories get to see the light of day.

Anyway, it was fun to do color again, using the premise to try different things in that sense, and it was also really fun to put some of you in the audience! Thanks to those among you who sent their reference to be in the crowd around the appearing guy. I’m attaching a larger picture of that scene to this blog in case you can’t find yourselves in the panel.

As with all these comics, there might be glitches and typos still, as usual feel free to point them out if you want, or simply comment. This comic will probably be up on the site and on tumblr by tomorrow.

Thanks again! I hope you like it!

The Secret Notes 08-March-17

This is page one of a new comic. It’s a story that I’ve been trying to do since past year in different lengths and formats, but now I’m committed till the end to this nonsensical tale. 

It’s a comic about a hobbies convention in the afterlife. At least that’s where it starts. 

So, in order to make it more fun, this month I’m offering 3+ tier patrons the chance to be part of the comic as an extra. There’s a scene where we see the audience at the convention, and you can be one of the small faces.

I must warn you that it happens in the context of the realm of the dead, so you will be one of the deceased, this time. If you are ok with that. 

(Of course you are)

As usual, send reference pics (or mention a previous photo that you’ve already sent) to gemeloperverso@gmail.com , with ‘Afterlife Comic Extra’ in the subject.

Note: It’s ok if you want to edit your patronage to the 3+ tier just this month in order to play. Just keep it up till the end of the month.

I’ll be seeing you soon with updates on the process.

The Secret Notes 13- Feb-17

 

Hello. I’m starting the engines again, coming back from a break that’s somewhat common around these parts due to how vacations are arranged in Chile -I heard someone call February “the sunday of the year” here, something I can agree with just by taking a walk around my usually busy neighbourhood, now mostly populated by ice cream-eating tourists and sleeping cats. 

While I work on the skeleton of a new comic, I’ll be taking requests for drawings. I’ll try to make up for the hiatus in sketches by taking requests from 3+ tier patrons for simple avatar-like drawings from pic references, and from 10+ patrons also including the possibility of simple fanart drawings, if you want to. As usual, send your requests including pics if necessary, to gemeloperverso@gmail.com

I’ll be back soon with process notes. I hope you have a great week.

The Undeniable Beauty of Lo-Fi Gaming

Count backwards from ten: Peter Bebergal’s Top 10 Occult in Media 

New comic – early look: The Abott and the Scribe

A new tale for your profane enjoyment.

Feel free to comment or point at any language mistake. You already know I learned english by putting a strange feather under my pillow for sixty six days – just as the funny little man said- and those things never work the way they’re supposed to.

This comic should be up by tomorrow on the main site with some alt-text extra info, some marginalia, to keep on the subject. 

Thanks for your support!
