#piratesofpanem

I am behind, unfortunately! We've had non stop family situations from Thanksgiving until now, with rotating players, with everything involving surgeries, new diabetic equipment (T1D), training sessions, and unfortunately worse. I posted this several weeks back on my Patreon, and will be posting the high res color version soon for supporters. The new chapter is coming soon (but I'm afraid to jinx it. The next TWO are almost done in fact, due to a change in the winds...)

As always, mom life is neither simple nor straight, and the amount of pivoting derails and delays.

Uploading tonight at 5:30PM at my Webtoons page!

Patrons already have access to the high res PDF~

Sorry this took far longer than expected, but it's got alot of tiny details for all of you to pick up on~

Learned some important things in this chapter --

One, I've had to move to digital linework. It just makes edits easier.

Two, I need to give myself more time if I want higher quality. I'm happy with the art of this chapter, but it falls under 'good and acceptable'. Balancing edits, life, and the fact that I work in Pharmacy during flu season means I had less time than I'd hoped, and I just accepted I wanted to get this chapter OUT. I didn't want to make people wait longer.

So bi-weekly updates moving forward, but Patreons will see weekly pages as I finish edits and pages.

The new Re-Work of Episode one is LIVE on Webtoons! Thanks for your support! Episode two will be going up no later than Tuesday hopefully! Please tell me how you find reading it. I had to add a scene (and trying to match art style I did TEN YEARS AGO was...oi.) 

Check it out HERE...

Webtoons focuses on a more mobile friendly read format, and I'm still navigating how it works. It's a better place than uploading it to Tumblr, in that I can set up as episodes, and it's easier to read consecutively. Be sure to follow there if you have an account~ 

Also, Patrons on my Patreon can download it directly, if you are not a fan of Webtoons, as well as get sneak peeks at upcoming chapters and sketches that have not been published before.

I have been quiet here. Too quiet.

Over the past few years, I've battled some unexpected medical turns with family, with kids, with myself. My life became so chaotic I had to set aside projects I loved, but my brain never closed those doors entirely...

That said, I've decided to restart my comic work -- Most noticeably, Pirates of Panem, which was exclusive to Tumblr, will be continuing again.

To do this, I of course need your support! And those that are able to, I encourage you to take a look at my new patreon;

www.patreon.com/chistudios

Not only will Pirates of Panem be uploaded there, but new pages will be added, character images that I never uploaded will be going up, and I also have 5 other series -- never uploaded or posted anywhere -- that will also be going live there. You'll also get to see the behind the scenes images, my storyboards, and all the things I didn't post when I was working on it before!

Hello new friends!

I've had a few people message me about the (now monthly) updates on the webtoon. It really comes down to an (incorrect) assumption on my part -- that I would be able to keep to timeframes this time around!

I try to keep it to within the first week of the month -- that being said, I'm hoping to have the newest chapter up on Friday, December 8, with Patreon members getting access to certain pages before that of course. Teasers for the next chapter are posted at least once a week there, along with all the other projects I'm working on.

I'm SO excited to see the new movie (I did not read the book, and won't have time before I go, which is a shame on me moment...) but hoping to go see it after PAX!Unplugged this weekend. If you'll be there, come visit me at the RED DUKE GAMES booth! I'll even have some of my PoP art there!

Pirates of Panem - Episode 3

Episode 3 will be posted for download on Patreon by end of day, and updated on Webtoons tomorrow. That will be the new standard - Patreons will get access to the downloadable Episode 1-2 days prior to public upload. (I'm hoping to get into a habit of Wednesday Patreon Uploads, and Friday Webtoon uploads.) 

I'm expecting to have hit the completely new content that has never been posted by October, which will include Finnick, Annie, and many characters that never made it to to the films (Madge has already made her appearance, though those pages are being redrawn~).

Webtoons is hard to navigate when it's not a featured comic, but it was the best platform I could find that permitted free reading (And didn't block readers behind paywalls or third party companies). So if you want to be kept up to date, be sure to subscribe to either my account, or the comic itself, there.

I earn no money from Webtoons (And most likely never will) So if you're loving Pirates of Panem and would like to support its progress, please check out my Patreon (Where you can see behind the scenes sketches, sneak peeks, and early downloads). Other than a few OC posts, it's been mostly PoP content as I revive the series and talk about learning to adjust to the webtoons format.
