Have you observed it? An increase. A significant increase in artwork this month. Despite getting covid and being out of commission for nearly a week, despite several days off work for lack of work to do, still I have drawn many things. How? Unclear.

We've got Natashas, often appropriately dressed for summer fun, and Evangeline and Ashley and Asher too. Virginia and Maylea is here too, looking more foxlike than ever. Anyway, look forward to next month when I will be making either more or less art than this.

A lot of behind the scenes work has been going on this month, including updating the design for dimestore.fun and writing out future comic pages. I also had time to do some art to show my love for fellow artist Grog of Finland. Unfortunately, the art here was done in two parts because I didn't like how Perpsichory's legs turned out. If you want to see the completed version, direct your gaze to the Gallery.
We also see young Nemo, of his Adventures in Dreamland, and Ashley, and a brief cameo by Virginia and Evangeline.

Pretty happy with my art output in June. Still looking for a workflow that makes producing comic pages feasible. One promising thing I've found is Sweet Home 3D, an open source freeware app that probably won't get me usable rendered backgrounds, but could conceivably give me something I can trace over with relative ease. I'll let you know how it goes!
Anyway, this month we have plenty of cute Natashas, plus cute Virgina, cute Evangeline, and cute Ashley. As a bonus, Miho the eponymous Gumiho from My Girlfriend is a Gumiho gets some representation! How about that!

This month I interacted with friend of the site AniMerrill, and have drawn Kelsie from his comic Let's Move Forward. His comic has a lot in common with Dimestore Novel and I hope to see both stories told in the future.
Here you'll also find the standard assortment of Natashas, including one mermaid because May. Ashley is really looking good this month, as is her brother Asher. Virginia, Evangeline, and Mr. E represent as well. Lastly, a rare one this month, Virginia's rival Roy G. Bivouac makes an appearance.

If you spend time closely examining the art I put out month after month, say perhaps as part of a project to document all my art one month at a time, you will notice certain trends. There's one particular poste I drew this month that very much seems like a re-attempt of a pose I drew in February. Can you identify which ones I refer to?
A few of these are attempts at panels for a short comic which never came to pass. What were they saying to each other? Was it funny? Should I have finished it? Who can say. Lastly, this was the month several art memes, like O.D. of Bourgeiose Milk Boy Milk.

September 2022, a month filled with mysterious and delightful art. Ashley's robot toolbox arm is now well established in canon. Natasha having tearful amogus eyes or a weird artifact that makes her float remain non-canon. Natasha hanging out with one of friend of the site Rapidpunches' shark guys is questionably non-standard quasi-canon. Everything else is fair game.
