Aloha, everyone – It’s been a busy corporate week at the old dayjob, so I’ve not really gotten up to much entertaining or interesting! Hope you enjoy this week’s page!

It barely needs saying, but the world has gone absolutely mental in the week since the last page. Yesterday’s terrorist attack in Spain was sickening, a continuation of misplaced, pointless, indiscriminate violence that does nothing but reinforce the powerbase of unhinged maniacs at the expense of innocent lives.
And last weekend’s Nazi rallies. Aiyaa. Nope, there is no calling them anything else – they’re Nazis. And all sorts of apologists came crawling out.
And, with the newly revived threat of nuclear chaos being unleashed upon us, it all makes for some very depressing existing.
Hey everybody! It’s new Elf Blood story page time, yay!
Having taken a little break from doing sequential art, and dropping the webcomic to 1 page a week has really let me find the fun in doing these again – I’m able to put time into other things, which is letting me fulfil a lot of other creative needs. That’s not to say I’m done growing in my artwork, not at all – but having time to explore other things helps my creativity over all. For example, my interest in film-making is feeding back into my artwork, via colour grading and ‘shot’ composition. I’m able to do a bit more writing too, which obviously helps my comic work, and I’m even getting back into music composition. Which doesn’t help my comics, it just reminds me where I’ve come from π
Hey everyone! Welcome back to Elf Blood! Here’s the cover for a brand new story arc – Hands of Mara 2, Lost Pleiad!
Me? Well, I’ve been on holiday this week, and in a bid to actually have something resembling a holiday, I’ve been keeping the ol’ work to a minimum. Mostly, I’ve been playing Disgaea 5 and neglecting the total mess that my house is in. It’s a system, it works for me, y’know?
Anyways, hope you’re looking forward to the upcoming arc! Feels good to be back drawing Elf Blood, even if it is only one day a week π
Just one more day to survive at work… Then I can go on holiday… Just one more day…
This is the last in Hot Vinyl Set #1! I hope you’ve enjoyed them, and thanks for letting me do these – it really helps save a lot of time, and it’s been great fun sharing them with you as well π Hopefully I can get these printed off in short order so I’ve got even more merch to sell at conventions and comic fairs!
Don’t forget, from this point on, I’m changing to a Friday-only release, so there’ll be no comic on Monday, for the first time in just under eight years! Blimey. Tune in Friday for the cover of the next Elf Blood arc – Hands of Mara 2!
Hey everyone, just a quick update for today’s Hot Vinyl sticker! Anyone got any thoughts on the designs so far? Let me know!
Have a good week, all!

Hey everyone, hope you’re all doing well! Man, I’m glad that it’s the weekend… Nothing much to report here, really. Have a good one, folks, and I’ll catch you on Monday!

Hey everyone! Here’s the first (well, the second, really) Hot Vinyl design in my little break between Mei Wu and Elf Blood. I quite like the design, but what do you think about the colours? I always had a subdued green palette in mind, but are they really noticeable as they are? Would it work better with a brighter, more saturated palette?
Do let me know π Tune in on Friday for another Hot Vinyl! Really looking forward to getting these done and printed! Though I really need to get a move on with setting up an online store…
Hey everyone! That’s it, the end of Mei Wu book four! Phew! What a journey! I really hope you enjoyed it π I love delving into the hidden world of the foxes every now and then, but I’m absolutely ready to jump back into the Elfy goings-on of the Elf Blood plot. I’m especially jazzed about the upcoming story, because we get to spend extra time with a group of characters we’ve only really seen glimpses of in other characters’ stories – The Pleiades, assistants to the Sages. The title of the story? “Hands of Mara II: Seven Sisters”.
Hola everyone! How was your weekend? I had a great time, actually getting down to some work on my print projects. I mean, I love my friends and family, but every once in a while it’s nice to have time to oneself π
Anyway, time to start the ol’ work week. Thoroughly looking forward to my holiday at the end of the month, so prepare yourself for another Holiday Quest π
Have a great week folks, and I’ll see you on Friday for the last page of this issue ofΒ Mei Wu! Cheerio for now!
