A very belated Day Six of @byler-week! Now I am completely aware that what I have made only SCRATCHES THE SURFACE of what a confession regarding The Painting could look like. A comic going THAT in-depth would take me way too long! Mainly wanted to draw my vision of Will screaming that he's in love with Mike at the top of his lungs and everything suddenly clicking into place for Mike after the fact. Idk it was very cathartic for me :-) Day Seven will be coming ASAP! Thanks for sticking with me as I wrap up this challenge! <3

Day Six Prompts were: Develop, Drawer, Valuable, White/Black color scheme

Part One || Part Two || Part Three || Part Four || Part Five

Here it is! The seventh and final day (and once again belated) of my comic for @byler-week!

I am deeply going to miss working on this series, but am beyond happy for it to be done and posted! From the bottom of my heart, I thank you all for sticking around and I--once again--thank the Byler Week team for putting this challenge together. It was an event that I will never forget. I hope you all enjoyed reading my take on the prompts just as much as I did making them! 💚💛💙

Day Seven Prompts were: Empty, Arrive, D&D, Blue/Yellow Color Scheme

Part One || Part Two || Part Three || Part Four || Part Five || Part Six

"It's dark and lonely. Where did I go wrong?" Day Two of @byler-week! Now it's Mike's turn for the standard, but not-so-standard (but just equally as devastating) angst. Will it get better tomorrow? Stay tuned to find out!

Today's Prompts were: Light, Paranormal, Communicating, Green/Purple Color Scheme

Part One

[superstarcadet]

"Despite my urges to put it out, it persists." Day One of @byler-week!! Just some standard, but not-so-standard Will Byers angst (it's devastating) I'll be building upon my submissions for each day so stay tuned ;-) Today's prompts were: Fireworks, Cuddle, Outgoing, Teal/Brown Color Scheme.

I hold my worried heart close. "I think I know exactly where to start." I reply.

Day Four of @byler-week! A short, yet meaningful one today! This one probably takes the cake for being my favorite so far, so I hope you all enjoy it just as much as I did making it! :-D Today's Prompts were: Bridge, Crumbling, Rebuild, Orange (my favorite color!)/Blue color scheme

Part One || Part Two || Part Three

Hi Breaking Bad Tumblr 😼

I know this redraw/comparison has been done a million times but I finished BrBa recently and I’ve been wanting to make this piece since I saw S2 over a month ago. The inspo came to me as soon as I saw the scene play out on screen. I worked super hard on it too lol soooo enjoy!

Curly Mouthwashing Doodles I made while being insanely bored + recovering from surgery. He's become the new character that has taken over my brain, I fear... Made sure to include my personal favorite headcanon of him wearing cowboy boots! (Used generic brand colored pencils for color)

[superstarcadet]

"The flames persist and so do I." I SOMEHOW FINISHED DAY THREE OF @byler-week BEFORE THE DAY ENDED FOR ME?? Idk how but I did! A couple of my favorite panels of the week are in this set, so I hope you all enjoy it <3 Today's Prompts were: Defeated, Berry, Picking, Purple/Black color scheme Part One || Part Two

[superstarcadet]

"Yet it's one that I never expected to see the consequences of. Until now, that is..."

Day Five of @byler-week (a day late!). This prompt was a. tough to start for me (had to rework a lot of stuff!) and b. one that I started way later than I initially planned, but here it is nonetheless! Hope I didn't leave you all on too much of a cliffhanger 😶

Day Five Prompts were: Cheerful, Bloom, Fluff, Green/Pink color scheme

Part One || Part Two || Part Three || Part Four

He is filled with so much sadness and ambiguous gay yearning... Made a Mike to parallel the Will I made all the way back in October!

(Obligatory Jimmy TW! Usual description blabber below the cut)

Sorry for Jimmy posting on the holidays, but got this idea came to me in a prophetic vision and I had to act upon it! Really wanted to capture his horrendously ominous aura lol. Happy Holidays!

(Used colored pencils for color and moderate photo editing to get the effect I wanted)

In honor of these events (and the EIGHTH ANNIVERSEARY OF ST1!), I made a doodle of my favorite snippet to celebrate! The ORIGINAL FOUR are coming back WAHOO! 🥳
