Do you plan on returning to work on Brightest ever? It's been in my bookmarks tab for ages and, well, I get kinda sad seeing it. Sorry if that's blunt, I just feel I never read a concrete answer anywhere.
I’ve had a few people mention that I’m not unlike the characters I write, in that I don’t give straight answers either - though I feel like I do. :P
But I’m afraid there are no plans on getting back to Brightest. May as well just lay it all out now. It just takes more time than I can give anymore.

Chux! Is everything okay? The Brightest site went down and your tumblr is dead quiet.
Funny story! (But not actually funny.)
My server host charged me a couple hundred dollars without warning, and when I looked into it I found out I had no say over what I was being charged, and couldn’t cancel bill-able features. So I pulled the plug with them, feeling nervous about them being able to just use my credit card info willy-nilly.
But this meant I lost all my domains/sites/etc.
I’m going to look into archiving the comic somehow, maybe on Tumblr, maybe as a CBR or something. It’ll probably take me a while, but I’ll get it up somehow, and hopefully with the rest of the script of Season 2 so people can at least read it.
This Tumblr is quiet because I haven’t drawn anything! Just don’t feel it anymore.

For anyone still here, I went an opened a new Tumblr account for the new website and comic! I don’t know if there’s much cross-over here, so I figured it would be best to start fresh somewhere else.
Not closing this one down, because hey, maybe I’ll draw a pinup again!
But if you want to keep up with what I’m doing now, this is where to go.

- And another experiment. I like the look the messier I get with it.
This one’s practically a one-frame comic!
Monsters Experiment!
- Going to post these here, because it at least shows I’m drawing something. This is so very different than what people on here probably are watching me for, so I’m not too sure what kind of reception it’ll get. :P
Anyway, I’ve been drawing! Experimenting with some line-less monster designs for a possible project.
Summer Pinup Charlie
And the final bit of fan-servicery for this series. Charlie!
Like I’ve said, I’ve already got an initial run of these printed (I think it’s 20 each? 15? Something), along with a few other prints actually. Charlie hair experiments and…the group shot for Season 2?
Just checked the box again and they seem to have survived the fire unscathed - any sort of smoke smell is long gone by now too, as it turns out. Maybe I’ll try to get around to selling them at some point. But I’m a terrible businessman.
Summer Pinup Alex
And now Alex’s turn on the fan-service pinup wagon. Oh summer. Where you at?
Summer Pinup Coop
More of the fan-service pinups I was going to sell as prints. Coop’s just about the most UN-fan-service-y, so I like her being in this set.
Summer Maggie Pinup
I did a series of fan-servicey pinups last year with the intention to sell them as prints. I even printed them out! And then the fire happened, and while they made it out, they kind of vaguely smell like smoke and now I’m just put off of the whole thing. So I figured I might as well post them up.
First is Maggie!
- Personal art time!
The baby’s 7 months happens on the same day as Valentines so here’s the both together in an image.
More experiments with line-less drawings and textures. All the textures here are actually taken from stuff around our lives. Shirts, knit blankets, rugs, baby blankets. It’s an idea I’m thinking about doing for a photo album of the baby’s first 6 months.
