oh snap what’s that it’s 20 SIGNED COPIES OF THE BRAND NEW TPoH VOLUME 1! This is the very first batch of the second print run, which has small but significant corrections from the first print and also has its own ISBN! :D
Also for those asking, the second volume of TPoH will hopefully be printed this year after I have finished chapter 12; which I have just started today, hooray!
Anonymous asked: so we all know you're actually a cartoon trapped in a 3D felshy realm but how old were you when you had your first existential crisis, exactly?
Okay so you’re joking but I’m not because I remember it and it was during my first year of secondary school which would make me eleven years old.
Biology class, first term: we are all getting to know each other still and today we’re doing genetics- the teacher asks us to separate into groups according to our eye colour, pointing to different corners of the room for brown, grey, green etc. etc.
I, blithe and unsuspecting, wander up to the ‘blue’ corner, being of exceedingly blonde hair, freckle-specked chalk complection and (up to that point in time) thinking that I most definitely had blue eyes.
The blue eyes do not agree; “you have grey eyes, go to the grey eyes group.”
The grey eyes do not agree; “you have green eyes, go to the green eyes group!”
The green eyes then inform me that I have blue eyes and the net result of this exercise was that I, of eleven tender years and no particular intrinsic attatchment to the colours blue or grey or green am left, stranded in the middle of the room like a lone chicken sandwich at a vegetarian buffet. The other groups have by this point solidified, making my abandonment all the more excrutiating, whilst internally my brain begins to fervently question all the other things I thought I was very sure of about myself and how likely it was that I was just as wrong about those things, and perhaps in that case I wasn’t anything at all like I thought I was and who exactly was I anyway?
I am asked, sternly, why I am still stood in the middle of the classroom by the teacher and promptly burst into tears.
I still do not know what colour my eyes are, and to this day I have never found any two people who agree on the subject, the end!
Anonymous asked: Hiya! I love your art <3 About your new comic, The Princess and the Jester - could I maybe have some info on it? Like, what is it about, how long is it going to be, etc. Also, you seem pretty busy; how come you suddenly decided to take on a new webcomic?
ah! well, slight misunderstanding here- it’s not a comic, it’s going to be a picture book! I’d love to update two pages a week but what with it being Christmas (and I’m still on the mend) I don’t think that would be a good idea right now, so it’ll be another one-page-a-week update schedule until I can get myself together but it’s not going to be as long as TPoH by a loooooong shot so hopefully I will finish it before 2016
yeah
but otherwise nah I’m not telling you anything about it ahHAHAHA
today on ‘just because it looks like a piece of shit right now and you’re not sure where you’re going with it doesn’t mean you should stop’
Anonymous asked: can you take a picture of yourself? right now? :D
ack, okay but I’m right by the window and I couldn’t be bothered putting on eyeliner today
too bright for photobooth to deal (but hey at least it shows up the hair colour pretty well)
also my fav hideous jumper <3
look at this jerk with a stretchy face and silly clothes
he’s from modmad’s animation??

(via rusharound)
I just realized one of the future objects in TPoH is so complicated I’m going to have to make a model of it so I can draw it accurately from different angles
you would think this would be a problem due to it requiring extra work but I’m just excited at the prospect of using plasticine again :D
