Friction (Emergency Comms) @frictioncomic.com · 24/09/2026This is soft-vent. Someone I love is very sick and I've only been able to process by writing. I have been developing the alien goop in Keith. I feel like what I'm depicting here reflects the character direction without need for much explanation, "Rome" being its planet. #ocsky #ventart 010
Friction (Emergency Comms) @frictioncomic.com · 15/08/2026Proof of life as I'm lining things. Should be posting this chapter.... before October? These last two years have been horrible and I'm being ground down into a human stump at work. 031
Friction (Emergency Comms) @frictioncomic.com · 27/07/2026I needed a way to upload a higher quality version of this attack. #artfight2026 #artfight #teamcomedy For @loztneighbor.bsky.social / www.instagram.com/LoztNeighbor/ 210
Friction (Emergency Comms) @frictioncomic.com · 26/07/2026This time I'm making a (small) animation... The first frame is looking good so far. #artfight2026 #teamcomedy #artfight #WIP 010
Friction (Emergency Comms) @frictioncomic.com · 14/07/2026I'm already really happy with this attack's sketch. It's got so much sass. #artfight2026 #artfight #teamcomedy #WIP 020

Friction (Emergency Comms) @frictioncomic.com · 02/07/2026I'm already at 4 attacks. It's my day off so I'm trying to capitalize. #artfight2026 #artfight Come attack me: artfight.net/~CherryRedTy... 010
Friction (Emergency Comms) @frictioncomic.com · 18/06/2026Thoughts on my profile thingy? I may do a more serious one if this one isn't functional. #artfight2026 #artfight #ocsky 131
Friction (Emergency Comms) @frictioncomic.com · 11/06/2026I made this to practice making silly little lyric vids. This is proof of concept for future ideas. Lyrics in the POV of Rex targeted at Dianne. Song is Untrend by Posavant. 100
Friction (Emergency Comms) @frictioncomic.com · 08/06/2026Rex. 👇 I wanted to male a tumblr sexyman but trans. He has no eyebrow hair. Hard to tell from my art tho. 000
Friction (Emergency Comms) @frictioncomic.com · 05/06/2026I tried. Wanted to practice rendering for #artfight as well as add to Keith's ref. I like this better than my current chapter 2 cover so I might use this when I print. Seth is still the better renderer/bg artist. I am counting the days until I have him back to work on the comic. #comicsart #ocsky 051
Friction (Emergency Comms) @frictioncomic.com · 04/06/2026This is taking forever 😭 But I only get 2 days a week with 2+ hours of consecutive draw time. 010
Friction (Emergency Comms) @frictioncomic.com · 29/05/2026Hhhh I'm gonna try to render something more complicated. Wish me luck ig.... 🙃 100
Friction (Emergency Comms) @frictioncomic.com · 28/05/2026Practicing portraits/rendering for #artfight I wanna try to do some cool shit this year. Idk what. artfight.net/~CherryRedTy... 030
Friction (Emergency Comms) @frictioncomic.com · 28/05/2026Now that I can draw better I updated Bia's goth fit. Her old goth art predates a lot of her other ref art and looked crust asf. 010
Friction (Emergency Comms) @frictioncomic.com · 22/05/2026I finally designed Rex's tattoos (and his T-D but I'm not posting that on bsky🤫) I wanted it done for AF. Based off a tatt design my friend Kai helped me with. 011

Friction (Emergency Comms) @frictioncomic.com · 13/05/2026If someone traced that photo as their base sketch and didn't tell AF staff how tf would they even know? Are they gonna start making their *checks notes* "unpaid volunteers" take a course to detect the photo tracing of little wooden dummies. 010
Friction (Emergency Comms) @frictioncomic.com · 13/05/2026My partner got a good pic today. Shes in this cave thing we 3D printed for her because its close to her basking bulb. Idk if shes chunky??? She has a new clean up crew- the mealworm beetles. No diary cows cuz someone warned me they get aggressive. Tho she might be eating some of her beetles. 120
Friction (Emergency Comms) @frictioncomic.com · 13/05/2026Sorry for the rant. My partner makes 3D models which made me realize: he has multiple 3D models (he went to college for this shit) and #artfight wouldn't let him use it. There is so much to say on this topic it's wild. Models: @xetialpha.bsky.social 💍💕 030
Friction (Emergency Comms) @frictioncomic.com · 13/05/2026Exhibit D: How the fuck is anyone gonna know if an artist is tracing something like primitives, skeletons, or pose mannequins? Genuinely. A lot of really talented artist use 3D primitives in their workflow. Is it cheating to use an unaccredited basic-ass cube to solve for head perspective in CSP? 100
Friction (Emergency Comms) @frictioncomic.com · 13/05/2026SOMETIMES its more obvious art is traced when it's something stolen/reused. But something like a photo I TOOK is not going to be so easy. Exhibit C: My physical Keith ref I use for the comic. Ignore how shitty the photo is I'm doing this all half assed. See alt text for context. 110
Friction (Emergency Comms) @frictioncomic.com · 13/05/2026AFs rule about photo/model tracing is gonna be extremely hard to enforce 🧵 Exhibit A: Ena Writer (@ena97) / Head by Bingo (Acon) acon-fmeda7grh3byerbe.a02.azurefd.net/product/rwOv... Exhibit B: Greg Land. He's traced others without permission and he traces himself. Sometimes you really cant tell. 110
Friction (Emergency Comms) @frictioncomic.com · 09/05/2026Kebin I took a Kevin from one of my pages Im working on and shittily colored him in so I could have some updated (improved) ref for #artfight #artfight2026. In his older art his faces look ROUGH due to inexperience with drawing sunken in faces. #ocsky 150
Friction (Emergency Comms) @frictioncomic.com · 08/05/2026I really miss role playing this bastard but my partner is too busy. SIGH. Like pls let me do shit with the world building that isn't going to make it onto the page 🙏🥺💦 #artfight #OCsky #rpgsky #artrpg 020
Friction (Emergency Comms) @frictioncomic.com · 07/05/2026Working on ref for #artfight2026 #ocsky Plus I need art of Keith's EXACT build. He's always wearing knee cover. Unless he is showering at home. The tasteful tentacle covering his bits can be removed since it's on its own layer. 100
Friction (Emergency Comms) @frictioncomic.com · 29/04/2026I *think* I'm doing art fight this year. And since Rikki is a major antagonist mentioned this chapter I figured I'd want art of him. He's Keith's cousin and Dianne's fiance. He's 6'11". His numbers say rage in leet. He's actually a lawyer. #ocsky #comicsart 040
Friction (Emergency Comms) @frictioncomic.com · 25/04/2026Heres what my pages look like after I line them. I have gotten a lot better at giving character drawings depth. This page took awhile. I was chiseling it out 30ish mins here and there every day. 010
Friction (Emergency Comms) @frictioncomic.com · 16/04/2026I really hated the composition with the poses in this page Before >>> After 010
Friction (Emergency Comms) @frictioncomic.com · 09/04/2026Im doing CH 2 out of order since it's gonna be bulk uploaded anyway. It's kinda... whatever I have ideas for. I'll take a page that looks boring and do something cool as I line. Here Keith is cracking open a time skip. Left page > into > right page. SFX will go after colors in this case. 020
Friction (Emergency Comms) @frictioncomic.com · 02/04/2026Shes finally somewhere i can get a pic. Not a good one but a pic (white stripe on the leaf). She stayed there while i misted her tank which is rare. I've pissed her off a couple times misting too close to her so I was shocked... maybe she trusts me more? Her color i healthy. 000
Friction (Emergency Comms) @frictioncomic.com · 02/04/2026I tried to draw quick today but I have been sneezing and wheezing. One of the minor antagonists. I wanted to do something between a femme Joker + Larxene. It's implied she's a juggalo. Their universe's faygo and monster have their color pallets swapped. Still not 100% on her design but eh~ 110

Friction (Emergency Comms) @frictioncomic.com · 12/03/2026#webcomic #comicsart #OCsky #graphicdesign I really wanted to invoke a sexy motorcycle ad from the 90s early 2000s. The bike is a Suzuki TL1000S my partner commissioned to have modeled. I realized it's not 100% accurate but I don't blame the modeler (TLDR bike is niche) 050

Friction (Emergency Comms) @frictioncomic.com · 19/02/2026Huion Frego M speed review (I just got mine today) Pros: Pen upgrade from my Kamvas 1331. Draws VERY smooth. Pen is slimmer like real pen Single cable connection/charging Full drawing space YMMV: Bluetooth (haven't tested) No buttons (I don't use buttons) Price* No screen (I use both kinds) [+] 110
Friction (Emergency Comms) @frictioncomic.com · 04/02/2026Female anoles have dewlaps albeit small ones. You can kinda see hers coming in. We only know she's a female because males will not have that stripe on the back. While they will eat proportionally larger prey compared to other lizards, you shouldn't present them anything much bigger than their head. 100
Friction (Emergency Comms) @frictioncomic.com · 04/02/2026One of her eating in her hammock. She did a bit of a quick draw showdown with it before munching on down. We gotta mist her tank but we wanted to feed her while she was in an easy feeding spot. 110
