short update

I have scheduled all Pure Light comic posts for the next few months. There will be two updates per week for a while. Grisly Tales is well underway too. End of April/beginning of May deadline is still on.

After that I'm flying back into the r...

Pure Light chapter 03 - 01

As of the time of this writing, I have finished 15 pages of chapter 3. The others are still in some stage of development. I expect to be able to return to working on remastered pages in May. I will likely have enough works left to upload until the...

Double update because technically you've likely already seen this page in the remaster announcement. This is where we end with chapter 2 for now. But we'll continue right on to chapter 3 in a few days. Thank you for the support so far, I really ap...

This and the next few pages had the most dramatic overhaul in the second half of the chapter. A full change in color palette and tone. For the better, I'd say. A few perspective fixes, improved distance perception and contrast, and you got yoursel...

Hello everyone!

I think it's time for another overview of local happenings. But first, thank you all again for your continued support for my comic endeavors! I'm very grateful for your interest and generosity!

I hope you've been enjoyi...

Definitely one of the most satisfying moments of the comic, I'd say.

Ah, and there we have Moneybags. Another classic Spyro npc. One of the most fun aspects of PL was to have this new set of characters, who all have their own stories and live in a new world, interact with the old, familiar cast. Even though most of...

Ember, oh Ember. What to make of you. I've always felt a bit conflicted over Spyro's version of Amy Rose. Ridiculous, considering she's an unimportant, forgotten npc with maybe 3 lines of dialogue. It's all thanks to the fandom that she's so popul...

I can't add much commentary here as the pages speak for themselves. 

In other news, I've recently started putting all my efforts into finishing Grisly Tales part 1. Since the deadline for that was and still is June of this year. If I ca...

Pure Light chapter 02 - 33

Yeah, so back when I first drew PL pages, I had a tendency to do these 'double joke' panels where the punchline was only a small change in expression. So I didn't have to draw the second panel traditionally and would just copy paste it. It's not a...

This is where the remaster really begins to look fresh. No more bland, washed out colors. 

I think one of the aspects I liked the most about Pure Light, and what made it unique, are the crowds. Even though the different fantasy creature...

I apologize for the delay on this upload. I had forgotten to add gold vfx to this page and only did so today. I'll see to getting a regular schedule for the next pages.

Anyway, medusa is as fancy as ever. Though Chimero will always be my fav...

Though it isn't immediately obvious, increasing focus is a big part of remastering these pages. I need the reader's eye to immediately jump the most important part of each frame. I do so by zooming in more, increasing contrast and saturation where...

Despite the VFX having aged here, I actually still quite like this particular page. The elements shown here are each distinctive and the motion feels smooth.

End of month billing will continue again

Hello! 

Since I am uploading regularly again, I would like to resume regular monetization of this account. Though this is not what you signed up for originally, I implore you to stay. I've said it before but the remaster of Pure light c...

This page is...unfortunate. Even as a remaster there's little to salvage. I added a bit more lineart and fixed the resolution inconsistency. But this one is just not worth spending more time on. I put the saved hours into action scenes instead. View Post

"So that's why they call you a digger. You dig."

I use these uploads to talk about different things that came to mind while working on the remaster. One is the removal of the word "digger"

Long ago, when Pure light was fresh and new an...

Burner's design took the longest to stabilize. It's only by page 77 of the comic that his design stops changing. For the faces, I have to change almost every single panel. Mainly the eyes. Because those bothered me the most. If your eyes look good...

Jumping straight into the madness. 

As you can see, we immediately skipped 20 pages. That is because I am still deciding on whether or not to redraw those from scratch. You see, I am also currently writing the ending of Pure Light. We h...

Thank you for the feedback on my suggestion. I'll re-activate the Patreon again next month and will be uploading Pure Light-related content until that project comes to an end. After that, it's straight back to Sunmak...

hello there!

It's been another few quiet months for Sunmakers. And it doesn't seem like there will come an end to that soon. In order to not let this Patreon collect more dust, I have a suggestion.

September news update

Hello!

I haven't done any updates for a few months to let you know what I've been working on. Mostly because progress has been slow.  But slow doesn't mean none at all.

First and foremost; Empyreans.
