The crops are truly cruel to my panels (but they look really good if you fill size them). Effective nighttime panels using only two colors.

A simple page, but it's done, so that feels good. What feels better is that I got to draw Martin's big, beautiful arms.

Working on another comic about everyone's favorite subject: robotics and manufacturing! HOORAY!!! (Genuinely, if you let it, it can be one of the most interesting things you ever learn about.)

Listen, the Ant level in "Medievil" really... ...BUGGED me!!!

My local Drink & Draw used this "Medievil" fan-art I did to advertise this Sunday's drawing event at Dozer Coffee Co. in Ann Arbor, MI. If you're local: come on down from 10AM-1PM and get your art on! We DO allow skeletons (but ants will be dealt with swiftly and with extreme prejudice).

My hands/arms can get better, but getting into the necessary doctor's appointments to get help (physical therapy isn't cutting it, daily strengthening and stretching isn't enough, though I have put on noticeable muscle) has taken months of waiting. Lots of time to try and not imagine the worst.

Something I now get to think about a lot because both my hands are pretty fucked from ulnar nerve damage is "If I had played less/no video games: how much more time with my hands would I have had to work on my comics?" I don't have an exact answer, but I know it's "a LOT of hours."

Hit my late 30s & now if I think about playing video games it triggers a disgust response. Don't think this is a universal feeling nor do I think it is a medium without merit. But I'm paralyzed by the thought of how much time I spent on them when I could have been doing something more constructive.

A really cool way to quit playing video games is to get ulnar nerve damage in both your hands.

Panel 3 is very "world-buildy", if you're into that kind of thing.

Panel pulls from a round of color correction/cleanup last night. Panels are from "Vampire Hunter Alone" Ch. 3 (which is completely drawn and colored, ch. 2 is not fully colored yet).

Color Correcting VHA pages because it needs to get done and it's not too hard on my busted ass hands/arms.

"Stupid fucking... ...monsters!" That the main guy was just not witty at all was so fun.

Kit Jaspering @iamboneitis.bsky.social · 20/09/2026
My arms/hands hurt all the time, and I'm not supposed to draw because of it, but I drew this guy at the end of a twelve hour shift so I didn't lose my mind.

I have met people who are strangely risk-averse about reading stories that don't fit *very* exact parameters (which is REALLY weird to me).

I've noticed that there's two ways to hook people: visually or via the premise. I've got friends who barely care about visuals but will instantly fall for any given gimmick-laden premise.

My comic/WebToon had a disputed chapter (apparently it got just a smidge too violent for the "Teen" rating) and, thus, had a missing chapter (5) for a few weeks while I navigated WebToons odd age ratings system. It's now restored, no random missing chapter! www.webtoons.com/en/canvas/va...

There's a particular bird when they get into the city-proper that I think you'll like in particular (it is very silly).

Since I've been able to draw for about 1-2 hours a day, I've started coloring VHA ch. 2 again. Pages like this are cool, but they're also why I've just taken to photo bashing more recent chapters. It's the only way I'll get this done before I'm dead.

Cody, meanwhile, hails from Kansas (which is much safer than Michigan) and a family of Vampire herders; a job that entails herding schools of Vampires away from population centers. Cody's only 11, but he wants to earn money for his family fighting in a more dangerous area, so he lies about his age.

In this world, our characters are drafted at age 13 to fight because the war is not going particularly well. Martin, a Michigan native, is pictured here next to a Battery-Blade: a heated, short sword that can potentially inflict wounds that the Fish-Vampires can't regenerate from.

Kit Jaspering @iamboneitis.bsky.social · 01/09/2026
I can only draw for about 1-2 hours a day, currently due to my hand/arm issues, so this title page took 3 sessions to draw. This is for a 9 page ch. that shows a bit of Martin & Cody's time as soldiers on the front lines of the Great Lakes Reclamation Campaign. They're 2 years into their tour here.

I'm not particularly unhappy, luckily, mostly just frustrated/bored with trying to do as little with my hands/arms as possible!

Kit Jaspering @iamboneitis.bsky.social · 31/08/2026
I mean... it doesn't LOOK like my hands and arms are all messed up. When I looked all schlubby, my hands never hurt. Do I need to be in worse shape? Have I flown too close to the graphite-sun?!?

I wasn't the biggest Dolly fan... BUT I have been to "Dolly Parton's Dixie Stampede" in Branson, Missouri twice, and it is a really awesome time. Tim Curry, I mostly knew from "Red Alert," which is better than any film credit could ever hope to be.

Right now, I can draw for about an hour a day before I have to stop. Some days, I still take completely off from drawing. I still plan to finish my comic projects, but progress is pretty halted currently. It should get better, but it's going to take time. I'll be around. (5/5)

I drew a pain progression diagram so I could talk to Doctor's more efficiently and, at the very least, they've given me the go ahead to keep hitting the gym so I don't go insane. I've also been using a pair of "lazy glasses" to read the stupidly dense books I give myself as homework. (4/5)

Kit Jaspering @iamboneitis.bsky.social · 26/08/2026
I'm not sure exactly what it is, but the likely culprits are ulnar nerve damage and/or a herniated disc. Working through it and it might heal on its own, but it is taking its damn time. I have to use my hands as little as possible, and I've never watched so many movies in my life. (3/5)

Kit Jaspering @iamboneitis.bsky.social · 26/08/2026
In news of the bummer variety: I can't really be taking commissions right now. I haven't been actively advertising it for years, but if people knew to ask, I would generally accept. I'm turning 38 next month and have managed to finally fuck up my arms/hands from 20+ years of daily drawing. (2/5)

Kit Jaspering @iamboneitis.bsky.social · 26/08/2026
Had to wait to upload this commission because it was a gift (hence the mattes and framing, I cut the mattes myself), but it was happily received yesterday. This one was a lot of work of the traditional ink and marker kind, but it's the exact kind of thing I like to draw. (1/5)
153
Kit Jaspering @iamboneitis.bsky.social · 06/08/2026
So I won't be doing a lot of drawing in the near future, at the very least until this thing heals up. It should heal, but not drawing has been incredibly boring (now I know how addicts feel) and genuinely difficult. I've got other things to do in the meantime, but I'll be around. (3/3)

After drawing, painting, and inking nearly every day for twenty years straight, I've developed a hell of an RSI (Repetitive Stress Injury) in my dominant arm. I've been battling it since January, but the steps I was taking weren't drastic enough, and the dang thing keeps getting worse. (2/3)

Kit Jaspering @iamboneitis.bsky.social · 06/08/2026
Mailed out two extremely-packaged pictures today (matted and framed). I wish I could show them off, but they're part of a surprise for the commissioner's SO. So no can do until then. In not as cool of news: I won't be drawing much for the rest of this month (possibly longer), I'll explain... (1/3)

Did a quick drawing of what Martin would look like at age 13 (when he was drafted) for a short chapter I just wrote. In the world of VHA: you get drafted into the Great Lakes Reclamation Campaign at age 13. Compared to his 17 year old self: he's less chiseled, cuter, and his antlers are smaller.

The mall is still pretty good. The cars have too many computer (and not enough leg room), though.

Ok, it's laminated and on the work fridge. Will my co-workers be able to figure out that the long haired, backwards hat wearing, ferret with gloves is me? Picture below is of me for comparison, albeit I'm out of uniform here ("Bluey" tank tops are, regrettably, not considered proper work attire).

Kit Jaspering @iamboneitis.bsky.social · 26/07/2026
Yukio Mishima is one of, if not, my favorite author (not because of the stupid nationalism stuff, but because of his stupefying level of commitment) and "The Amazing Digital Circus" had me wretching in minutes at its shallow, pandering nature. So comics like this are spiritually devastating.

A fun game you can play is to use a search engine to see what anime characters match your height and weight (thanks also to the Japanese habit of including these measurements in official design documentation). As a proud older brother myself, though, you'll never get better results than me:

Kit Jaspering @iamboneitis.bsky.social · 23/07/2026
Sign I made for work today, I'll color it soon (hopefully), but, for now, I have to rest my hand after even this miniscule amount of inking. Recovering from an RSI is boring and takes forever.

Been dealing with an increasingly severe case of anhedonia, but I keep ploddin' along on my comic (16% of ch. 2 is now colored). I also have a notebook where I keep my school and gym notes; stuck a sticker on there to remind me why I'm doing all this stuff (I will adopt kids or die trying).
