Sunhead, my upcoming graphic novel, will be available from May 7th!

Rotem is a teenage girl absolutely obsessed with a vampire romance novel called Sunrise. Even though she is surrounded by people who love her, none of them understand her strange fixation with the book and its main character, the vampire Edmund. When Rotem’s shy classmate Ayala shows an interest in Sunrise, the two start bond over their shared enthusiasm for the book. As they become closer, though, the lines between the fictional romance and the girls’ real-life friendship begin to blur…

Sunhead will be published by HarperAlley.

#i promise not to spam with promo post that's what twitter and instagram are for#but i thought some of you might like to know about this shrug emoji#it is very different from the stuff i usually draw though so i don't expect a lot of crossover audience#graphic novel#sunhead#my art

PSA for those following me for Shaderunners:

First of all, you guys are the best.

Second, things are moving along very nicely. The next THREE chapters are fully sketched (that's half the final book!!) and I'm starting on lineart soon. Lin has completely finished the script, too.

The reason this is taking so long is not because I've lost interest or anything remotely like that. I'm as passionate and dedicated to the project as I ever was. I was simply busy with my graphic novel, and since Shaderunners isn't really paid I unfortunately can't prioritise it over contractual obligations :'( still, I do my best to find pockets of time to work on it.

I don't want to jerk our readers around, so I won't start posting the next chapter until it is fully finished. I know it can be frustrating to constantly start and stop. But rest assured - the final act is happening !!!

#thank you all for sticking with us you're literally the best most wonderful readers anyone could ever ask for#and if you stopped reading/want to wait until it's finished that's very cool too#i can't stress enough that this comic is going to reach its ending and will not be dropped#the end is in sight even which is very very exciting and crazy to think about#anyway. thanks again love you all xoxo gossip girl#shaderunners

favourite scenes from pacific rim 3 💙

#please don't look at me i spent WAY too much time on these......#also really hoping i don't accidentally give anyone false hope since tragically pacrim 3 only exists in my head#you can definitely tell which scenes were drawn first lmao#because it started as just a fun exercise before spiraling out of control#anyway. enjoy i guess. don't look too closely#maybe you'll even be able to extract my post-uprising-fic-tropes-greatest-hits plot from these#pacific rim#newton geiszler#hermann gottlieb#newmann#my art#fanart
