I might have gotten a little bit carried away today... >w>

the ballad of the exercise ball

There was one thing that had gone unsaid. One thought raging through his head as though it had been screamed at him, as it ought to have been. One thought echoing like the thumping of his heart as it raced with the dawning horror.

It could have been worse.

This week on Runaway to the Stars. I’m still undecided on whether I want to ping social media every time it updates, or do weekly updates like this. And also whether to do short cropped posts with a link, or post full comics… so I’ll try some things out and see which feels the least weird to me. Leave a comment on the site to make my day 👍 Functionally, this book is a back story to a lot of the shorter comics I’ve posted to social media. It will probably contain a lot of characters people haven’t met, and be missing some characters people might expect. It’ll be interesting. Catch up with pages on runawaytothestars.com! Read ahead on Patreon!

I want to credit @monstermonger for inspiring the style of this one. Her style gives me whatever the visual equivalent of ASMR is. It makes my eyes water (in a good way lol).

When I was young I used to ink with pen a lot, sometimes painting in with watercolor, but I'd gotten out of that since learning digital art. I'm finding I miss it. There's something about nice black ink that tickles my brain. With this piece I wanted to try to imitate the technique digitally. You can be the judge as to whether I achieved that.
