Shaping Character: Designing the Cast

When I set out to make Hidden Curves, I wanted it to feel like a sultry, suspensible noir mashed with a fun and expressive retro cartoon. A story that could play with all the dark, sexy tropes of 1940s crime thrillers — but drawn in a way where the comedy and style could still lead the way. Something with a moody atmosphere and dramatic character work but still didn’t take itself too seriously.When it came to designing the cast, I gave myself permission to stretch proportions and body shapes...

Feelin’ Cheeky

Here’s a little pin-up I drew to thank everyone for being a member and supporting the art—especially since most of my posts this past month have been script-focused!I’m currently working on an article and a high-res character art gallery for Hidden Curves, which’ll be the next thing I post for members.I wanted to practice drawing the backside here—since I always seem to prefer sketching Viola from the front for some reason. Haha. Wonder why…HD image attached below.👇

Designing a Star: Finding the right fit.

Viola Delaine was designed to be a contradiction—gorgeous yet self-conscious, talented yet insecure.Like I mentioned in my previous article, her story was inspired by my wife’s struggles with finding a bra that fit, along with the frustration of feeling creatively stifled as a bookkeeper. As I developed the script, I leaned into that theme—someone who didn’t quite fit anywhere—at work, in her clothes, or even in her own skin. She wanted to be seen but feared what others might notice. A...

Measurin’ Time NSFW

Since Hidden Curves follows a seamstress-turned-lingerie model, I intend to explore the process Viola goes through to create lingerie that actually fits her unique figure. With her proportions, off-the-rack lingerie isn’t an option, so she takes up sewing. Here, we see her getting her “measurements “.Bust, waist, and hips are standard, but lingerie often requires extra precision. You’ll usually measure underbust and hanging bust as well to make sure you can tailor the perfect fit.But for...

Measurin’ Time!

Stitching a Story: From Threads of Inspiration to the Cover That Ties It All Together

The idea for my newest comic, Hidden Curves, came from an unexpected conversation. My wife, Felicia, was voicing her struggle to find a bra that fit her proportions—something comfortable that made her feelbeautiful.Being slim, she couldn’t find off-the-rack pieces with a band small enough to fit her frame while still holding everything else in place. We joked about her learning to sew so she could make her own alterations, and that’s when I thought: There’s a story here.At the time, I fi...
