I think I bought the wrong paper. And I seem to have forgotten how to draw. -_- It's been a long time.
Now that I have a permanent, full-time job and really want to move forward with my story, I am going to be experimenting with ways to make pages faster and less tedious. Detail and “quality” are going to take a hit, and they weren't great to start with. I can't be stressing over this and giving my all for so little. I'm cutting a few of the polishing steps. As I mentioned earlier, I'm also going to discontinue my paid domain mirror. I love telling my stories, and I'm not going to let them cause me any stress or financial burden (or labor under a delusion that they will ever be popular or capable of making money).
So, sorry-not-sorry for the drop in quality. It's my way of rediscovering the joy in webcomics and in life (and balancing it with an honest-to-God grown-up job).
Also, it SUCKS to be returning from hiatus to this exposition-heavy chapter. :P I'm trying to get through it the best I can. I'll be updating Tuesdays or Wednesdays due to my work schedule. I probably won't be building buffer.

Really awesome page, I loved the first panel, so huge you can see the house and the yard for a more complete family picture. Oh, that's too bad curiousv is going away, I really liked it. I can understand though, the dot com sites barely recieve visits nowadays, it's all in the social media sites. My dot com only receives visits from spammers, but I use it all the time for testing stuff for my work and programming courses.

Yeah. It's not worth the pricetag. I'm scaling back to a less intense hobby and removing any aspect that causes stress. (I'll miss using it for my own reference. Lol. But that alone isn't worth keeping.)

A bit delayed. My light board went missing in the move. I ordered a new one.

The brightness could be better but it works really well with this flash back.

Well then, hopefully my monitor doesn't need replaced :) Your page looks fine in either case.

I didn't change the coloring style (typical sepia for flashback). Just stopped the digital outlines and "cleanup."
