Hello new followers!! Welcome! I’m Sae, a nonbinary comic artist based in Colorado. I love D&D and animation! I also make a webcomic, Anacrine Complex, which can be found at pigeoncomic.com
#webcomics #doodlesonly

A character model sheet for a teal-skinned tiefling named Cognition. He’s dressed in Edwardian-reminiscent clothing, has great round spectacles perched on his nose, and has a silky cat’s tail the same color as his long dark hair. His horns have subtle copper swirls and he bears freckles of the same color. He also wears a buckskin apron and his gauntlets house many glass vials for field samples.

Panel 1: rendered in grayscale. A young Korean boy in a puffy jacket and oversized shorts. He wears a white beanie and a soft smile.

Panel 2: the puffy jacket opens: it was actually a set of twisting octopus tentacles sprouting from his back. The boy does not seem so happy anymore; he’s sad and nervous.

Wren and Dani from the webcomic Anacrine Complex sit on a large teal bean bag playing competitively with their “gamekid” consoles. They both wear white clothing.

A dark-haired woman (Veda from the webcomic Anacrine Complex) dives to the ground for shelter from a dangerous yellow electrical arc. The electricity originates from the silhouette of an angry man in the background. He wears a lab coat. “I said STOP!” He shouts.

High Tide 🌊 ✨ Hey guys I just finished this new painting in my ongoing series of paintings called ‘A Starry Place’ where I explore spaces that are meaningful and nostalgic to me. This piece is inspired by overcoming insurmountable challenges.

often processing them in a torrent. You look at something horrible on Twitter or somewhere else, but it's surrounded by other kinds of information, and so you don't have the space to have the intensity of feeling that we should have when something horrifying or traumatic happens. [highlighted by me] Supernatural horror is a technique for restoring the right kind of emotion to the horrifying things that people do or that are done to people. You're reestablishing that a terrifying thing is, in fact, terrifying. That a horrible thing is horrifying. That trauma has actual weight. You're giving space for the person reading to have the actual emotional response that is appropriate to the thing that just happened. [end highlight]

CMM: That speaks to me as a person who intellectualizes her feelings and often is very bad at experiencing them. It's a defense mechanism, obviously, a way of keeping yourself safe. Analyze it or put it in a framework, and it's not going to be as scary.
I've had therapists tell me, "Sometimes, you have to just experience a feeling; you have to let it run through you." So that makes a lot of

“Private money do he doesn’t need approval”??? Isn’t it highly illegal to take private money to make changes to any federal buildings?

It’s fun to see just how long people have been drawing goofy pictures on their class blackboard.

Cleanliness is next to Godliness. Gentlemen!

We had a short interview and I think it went ok but at the same time I’m second-guessing every word I said

looking to draw something from your favorite videogame, your rpg characters, fantasy pet portraits, and anything else you think would look sick as hell

2025 limited color fantasy pet portrait

Two tuxedo cats toil away in a tavern. One cleans dishes behind the bar while another consults his notes and balances beers on a tray. The patrons have left playing cards, empty plates and glasses, and other objects around the rear of the bar, gathering in the front in drunken merriment.

2025 full color commission

in a dense forest, a goblin hides behind a rock and summons with the aid of a spellbook 3 spectral birds. On the horizon, a giant white elk turns its gaze towards their hiding spot.

2025 limited color group commission

Inside a smokey dining room aboard a river boat pirate ship, a group of adventurers blow off steam. From left to right, an anxious squirrel has drunken to excess, a spirited otter teases them and toasts. A paternalistic skunk with a metal arm scolds them, while a delirious herbalist rabbit offers a solution, and the groups tinkerer, a sparrow, sits with an impulse of a food fight within reach.

025 limited tone fantasy family portrait

Two adventurers (and their cats) press forth in a water logged dungeon in orange and green. One holds a bow, with a cat toy tied to an arrow to direct the more playful of their two pets. The other adventurer holds his lazier cat aloft on a shifting scale.

Nothing to see here? Well, this is a slow moving 🧵 for #skystorians and others about #eyeglasses of the past, about how to read in the past, where to buy eyeglasses, and how to do with them in general. The hashtag is #HowToDoWithGlassesInThePast

Let's roll.

Detail of the "Glasses Apostle" painting in the altarpiece of the church of Bad Wildungen, Germany. Painted by Conrad von Soest in 1403, the painting is considered to be among the oldest depictions of eyeglasses north of the Alps

What movie villain genuinely scares you?

Mine is Hal from Megamind. I’ve met people like this and the thought of them gaining actual power over others is horrifying.

My mom struggles with they/them pronoun usage, so I recommended her this book. She told me she finished it and loved it -and then she got my pronouns right! 😭✨

A book cover with leaf-strewn forest paths connecting two characters: a robot and a monk. The simple-bodied robot admires a butterfly. The monk, a humbly dressed person with a black bob, sips tea from their cart. Text:” A Psalm for the Wild Built- a monk and robot book by Becky Chambers”
