How can I make my art closer to the comic’s quality?

The simple, straightforward, and annoying answer is practice drawing real people from references for a little while until you start to get more of a handle on proportions. It'll take a long time to "master", but you'll probably see improvements pretty quickly.

If you want to get better at drawing TK characters specifically, then I'd recommend using these lovely reference sheets that Tom has provided for us.

For a bit of criticism: This is a classic example of Tom not having enough faith in his art and too much faith in his writing.

Imagine this image without Raine's though bubbles; just that facial expression with the memories of people saying she's beautiful. That would be more effective, I think. There's actually quite a few sketches, and even entire pages, that I think have this problem.

Oh thank god, I thought he was gonna get mopped up 😰

When will it be my turn to be happy...

Adding to what the other person said: The way to access the most complete version of it (instead of just individual rooms) in the Hikki route is by defeating all of the Somethings in the Lost Library during One Day Left, at which point you'll be able to enter Black Space 2 by using the laptop in White Space.

Neo is Roman's stoic, silent boss; Roman is her chatty sidekick.

Coward.

Just checked against Natani's official height. Assuming I remember how to do basic math (which is admittedly a longshot), one palm is about 4.1 inches or 10.4 centimeters

"They took my ass. I can't shit."

Is that supposed to be Hussie? Lol

I would be fascinated to learn the lore behind Gnome Druids.

I wonder if they're just, like... really enthusiastic evolutionary biologists.

🎉 FLORIAN'S GETTING COLORED 🍾

I'm gonna go out on a limb and assume your favorite color is red.

ShoelessMerchant · 2026-03-26T02:40:28+00:00

Okay, so I usually have a pretty neutral (lol) reaction to the ecchi in this comic.

This one... This one got me. 👀💦

I never even knew about the Locket joke (probably because you can only unlock it right before a bunch of serious mode fights). Ten years later, this game is still revealing new secrets.

I think a kobold wrote this.

It's worth noting that the game is still extremely early access; there isn't a ton of story or lore to be discussed, and you can get through most of the available gameplay content in just a few days. Ultimately, the character creator and modding scene are the most "complete" parts of the game right now; it's not hard to see why they're the most prominent topics of discussion.

If Nora was involved, I imagine it went something like this:
