I've been sitting here thinking about the whole "she owes me bla bla bla" and just reflecting on everything.
Is his statement even fair to me in the slightest? After everything I've done for him through the years without any form of compensation -
1. Comic outfit designing - I would make him outfits for his characters. Maybe they won't be drawn in the comic exactly as I drew and designed them, but it was work done for him nontheless.
2. Helping out with drawing/sketching pages - Many times through my time with Kique, I would be asked to help out with either anatomy or figuring out how the page should look.
3. Helping him out with dialogue - I would often rewite his pages, adding/removing/changing text to make it sound and flow better.
This happened more than a handful of times, and he would even let me go into the script and write entire scenes that you've seen currently in the comic.
4. Colorblocking and coloring characters - On over an entire chapter's worth of pages, I have done the colorblocking and coloring of some of the characters. On one page in particular, I colored every panel except 1 and only got a singular thank you in return.
5. Edited his speedpaints - There is a reason why you don't see many speedpaints from him anymore. They were edited by me.
6. Patreon rewards - When Kique's tablet stopped working for whatever reason, I offered to do his design requests for the month. I did not get compensation for this.
7. Comicfury moderator - I think this one speaks for itself. It was a fulltime job checking comicfury every morning and night and making sure none of the stuff Kique didn't want to see didn't pass through.
8. Gave his dog Kargo at home vet care - He knows my history as a vet tech and later on vet assistant. Instead of listening to me when I recommended seeing the vet to get appropriate medications, he wanted me to treat him at home so he didn't have to call the vet and be out in public. Read my document for images of this and more info.
9. Cleaned his workspace - As much as he doesn't want to admit or realize this, I would go around the apartment every night when he went to the bathroom to get ready for bed picking up empty bottles and putting his dishes in the sink + throwing away wrappers from various snacks.
Do I really owe him anything?
I never got paid for any of this.
