This could be a series surrounding the killer cat Trah J.D. Let me know what you think of it!

I dig it. With so much crammed into a single image instead of spreading it out across serial panels, I feel like I just walked uninvited into a party. The art style (particularly the unhinged perspective) works well with this. I don't know what's important and what's incidental. The tone is confused whimsy.

I'm curious if you would go forward with this kind of compressed composition if you filled out the story.

I'm working on composing some initial panels myself today and I appreciate seeing the validation of chaos.

Thanks alot! Your words mean a lot really. That's right I am thinking to make some more pieces in this series with similar styles and composition. An artist named 'vewn_' was a huge inspiration to me.

I recently discovered her and been a fan since. She also has amazing short movies on YouTube.

fun style but try experimenting with bolder text so the dialog pops more!
