Updates: Comic, Kickstarter, Cons and More

It’s been a while since i posted anything and I just wanted to mention a few things that are in the works for the next several months.

1- ATOTR Updates!:

I plan to get back to updating A Tale of Two Rulers monthly again starting at the beginning of April! ^_^ Thank you all so much for your patience and support! I also have some comic copies and art books still available in my Etsy shop if anyone is interested! > https://www.etsy.com/shop/FigmentForms

2-Mothman Ita Bag Kickstarter:

I worked on a Kickstarter project to design a Mothman Ita bag with Adulting Axolotyl! Please check it out if you’re into such things! I’m really happy with how the bag turned out and the stretch goals include a luna moth version and more!

Mothman ITA Bag + Enamel Pins | Beanz & Friends

An Adulting Axolotyl x LOR Illustration collab ITA Bag Based on Everybody's Favorite Cryptid

Kickstarter

3- Convention Schedule:

For health reasons I can’t sell at conventions for a few more months BUT I still plan to have a booth at:

- Origins ( Columbus, OH, June 19th-23rd)

- GenCon ( Indianapolis, IN, August 1st-4th)

4- Charity Paintings Auction:

The world news lately had had me excessively angry so I made some paintings for auction that I will be starting in just a bit. Charity auction will be for the Palestine Children’s Relief Fund. <3

Thank you all so much!

Part 247 of  “A Tale of Two Rulers” (Jan 24, 2024)

I managed to finish something!!! ᕙ(⊙ᴗ⊙’)ᕗ

Thank yo all so much for your usual patience and kindness! Next update will be in about two months. Hopefully sooner.

I won’t be able to go do conventions for a while since getting sick right now would be very very very bad timing with my medical situation, so I took on a big commission and a kickstarter to supplement my income a bit, so that will slow me down. If you happen to like Mothman or/or ita bags, you may like the upcoming KS. I will make a post when it’s ready, but I promise I won’t spam about it.

(Also, comic will be looking a little different like this from now on because my old set up broke and i had to switch to another one. ^_^’)

for those that wonder how the medical stuff is going, I’ll put that below the cut so anyone who doesn’t want to see it can skip it easier:

[FigmentForms: art and other nonsense]

Sorry for the update delay again. The tumor/growth thing came back and I have another surgery scheduled for tomorrow (8th) to remove as much of it as they can again and to double check it to make sure the cells in that area aren’t the cancer kind. Plus dealing with some life things and a family emergency. Will get back to updates soon! Thank you so much to the people who stopped by and said hello at Galaxy con last weekend. Not sure if I will be able to do Ohayocon next month, (depending on medical stuff ) but I hope I can! Sorry again for disappearing

*update!* sorry! I should have made this update weeks ago! I’m ok! The biopsy yet again said no cancer. Sorry I’ve not been so behind and not answering things. My head hasn’t been quite right lately.

I’m also not going to be at any conventions for the next couple months just to be careful with the next part of the ivf process.

Next comic update is almost done! Excited about that! It’s extremely overdue. 😅

Thank you all for your kindness!🩷

Part 246 of  “A Tale of Two Rulers” (Oct 26, 2023)

THIS IS SO LATE!!! My brain finally kicked back on. I’m sorry, but thank you so much for understanding and being patient as always.

Thanks so much to all my amazing supporters that help make this comic happen! ♥

Also special thanks to loud-monotone-screaming for the great name suggestion for Duskar! Much appreciated! That’s his name now.

And also thanks to biggaymatt for suggesting Bidna for “Boy Midna”. Simple. Powerful. Good middle name for him.

DID IT!!! GOT 12 EGGS 🥚 🥚🥚🥚🥚🥚🥚🥚🥚🥚🥚🥚❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀 I hope they all turn to embryos!!!!🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹

[figmentforms]

So happy about this I wanted to share it on my main blog. 🥹 will probably delete later.

[FigmentForms: art and other nonsense]

I can’t update for a week or two. I really tried, but my IVF drugs are really interacting intensely with my brain and my body and all I can do is keep up with my self injections each day and suppress panic attacks by constantly distracting myself.

Good news is that, despite the fact that I constantly feel like a cat that has fallen into a bathtub of ice water and fire, the treatment is working (a little TOO WELL) so far and hopefully the egg retrieval surgery will happen a little sooner than expected and produce a big enough clutch of eggs that I NEVER have to do this again. 🙏🙏🙏🍀🍀🍀

Other Good news is that now I’m no longer terrified of needles. Now I’m just moderately frightened. That’s legit a win and I’m proud of that.😎😎😎😎💪

So in conclusion I HATE FEELING EVERY FEELING AT ONCE SO HARD I feel absolutely out of my freaking mind and I’m in pain and swollen and and I’m constantly freaking out and omg I can’t wait to get OFF this ‘journey’.

It’s ok to laugh at me because honestly i feel like this is so terrible it’s hilarious and laughing about it actually makes me feel better about it.

Love you all so much! Thank you all for your kindness🩷

I ended up making this sketch as art therapy for working through my fear about my upcoming medical procedures/surgeries and I actually ended up feeling pretty proud of it, so I hope it’s ok that I share it here. Moderately Zelda related. It’s Scarecrow with a bit of a Skullkid style-twist.

No idea why, but when I get freaked out I sometimes start using Scarecrow as an avatar of exploring why i’m afraid and trying to work through it. lol, yet another toxic fave. I don’t know why my brain works like this.

Part 245 of  “A Tale of Two Rulers” (Sept 5, 2023)

I’m sorry this was so late. It’s no excuse, but I’ve been struggling with some things and it’s slowed me down. I should be able to keep up with the usual update schedule now though. Thank you so much as always for your patience! I hope you enjoy the belated update! (Even though this is Gan at one of this worst moments)

For those who may be interested, I still have copies of my comic and my new art book for sale in my Etsy store right now.
