A Great and Terrible Wrath, Page 14

Patience stands at the base of the stairs trying in vain to comfort herself.

I try to choke out a prayer but cannot find the words.

"oh no, oh no, oh no"

A voice comes from above.

"What's going on? Lydia? Oswald? Are you there?"

Regardless, I am answered.

Patience runs up the stairs, down the hall and into a bedroom.

"Mother!"

Here's a T. Rex bored to death trying to bite their own tail. My partner asked me to animate it in stop motion, after she watched a video about the very important topic of "could T. Rex chew its own tail like a dog". The puppet is still a work in progress 🦖

lets say a wizard has cursed you with a lot of money. you are going to become permanently brain damaged simply by being in possession of so much money. the only way out of it is to spend a lot of money on something ridiculous and not at all useful

what would you buy to break the curse?

Yo it's #PortfolioDay . I'm Emily, a Canadian comic artist and illustrator, I make a lot of pixel art too. I love horror and fantasy!

A sailor wearing simple black pants tied with rope and a white shirt is covered in bleeding bite and claw marks. Closing in on him and four mermaids with pale reddish scale skin and rigid heads seemingly with no eyes. They have six fingers and reach out to catch the sailor. The sailor is screaming as he swims, he is not going to make it.

Dragon with golden blood, coming from arrow wounds. It has a white feathery head and a golden crown. Golden butterflies fly around it. It sits in an old forest battlefield.

A black and white comic about a young woman visiting the hospital during COVID for Crohns treatment. It is narrated with poetry written by Holly McCrea/A Tiny Sloth and illustrated by me.

"In this fickle year of pain, I've developed one new bane, a real sucking fear of hospitals" She looks up in fear of the large hospital looming before her. It seems dark and big.

"One day I will go, on that day they will be low, while I'm spilling from my abdomen" She staggers in pain and bleeding from Crohns issues. She holds her stomach and winces.

"Doctors look at me and say 'This one's treatment, wait and stay'

'This wound is old and can be left to fester'"

Doctors are in black silhouette in the foreground as she is placed on a hospital bed that is in a storage closet.

A comic page showing a female hiker in a cave. She hears a scream and comes running calling after "Lorri and Joel" . She thinks she sees her friend, Lorri, sitting on the cave floor. When 'Lorri' turns around, however, it is a gruesome beast with exaggerated human teeth and cracked lips drooling, snarling at her. The hiker is then cornered by both the Lorri monster and a strange spinal cord snake with massive sharp teeth.

A Great and Terrible Wrath, Page 13

Grandmother ominously descends the stairs.

"Grandmother! I just came from the stable! The horses are all gone!"

"They're- You stupid little girl! Did you leave the barn door open?"

"It- it was- was all shut u, but the horses are all missing. Grandmother, what are we to do?"

"We, I... That boy- damn him! This is the influence of those rapscallions! I know it! I just know it!"

Grandmother storms out the back door leaving Patience alone in the kitchen.

Please don’t make Native people do the heavy lifting on Indigenous Peoples Day. Often, this is the only day we are uplifted and heard. Instead, allow this day to be a day of rest and reflection for us.

All it takes is using your voice 🧡

Per Reddit: Steam adult developer in the UK is sitting on a USD equivalent of six figures, can’t find a bank to take his money because the developer creates adult games

I develop adult video games on Steam. I can't find a bank that will actually let me withdraw my money from Steam. Can I get some advice?
Game has sold quite well on Steam. I've got almost £90,000 ready to withdraw after Steam's cut + VAT taken off.

However, it's been 2 months now and I can't find ANY bank in the UK who will let me withdraw my money from Steam.

I've been banned/refused/unable to get a business account with:

Wise
Revolut
Monzo
Monese
Chase
Starling
Nationwide
Halifax
Barclays
Lloyds
RBS

It always comes down to, "Where did you get this money from?"

"It's coming from games I sell on Steam."

"Can we see the store page?"

"Sure."

"I'm sorry, we can't do business with you at this time."

It keeps coming down to a commercial decision purely because I make adult content.

What the hell am I supposed to do? I've pretty much exhausted the whole banking system. I just want to be able to be paid for products I've sold.

I am a professional artist. This is all I know. I’ve worked hard my whole life to get here. I hate the feeling that it’s all over and “time to get a real job”. It’s been one of my greatest fears since I started doing this full time in 2012. Going back to retail would destroy me. I hate it all.
