A centuries-old abbey stands eternal sentry against the coming of the Eclipse, a night of darkness when monsters descend to devour the world.

the trilogy is complete: one comic for every color ink drum we have for the riso 🧡💚💙

cover reveal for the comic I'm debuting at @smallpressexpo.bsky.social this year!

I've been working on these pages for so many days in a row I can't look at them anymore, but the drawing is done at last. Here are a couple spreads~

I bought a heavy duty paper cutter and can now slice a whole stack of comic pages at once, an enormous improvement to my earlier method of diligently yet painstakingly trimming every sheet by hand with a ruler and utility knife. I am brimming with power

Well friends, my GPU is cooked and shuts off at rapid intervals so that I can't see. Had to install a much older spare just to get it to function. So now would be a good time to post that I'm taking dice bag commissions! Check it out and hmu if you're interested! shminsington.tumblr.com/commissions

horse prints are on their way to my beautiful and radiant patrons this week 💌

fate has blessed me with a spot at SPX, time to get cooking on the new comic 😎

it's the year of the horse 🐎 trying a new paper and the orange ink drum was a little dry, which gave some interesting texture to this month's riso print. sign up to my patreon any time in march if you'd like some art in the mail~ 💌
