IT'S BEEN YEARS IN THE MAKING...But chapter 10 is finally finished.I hope that watching Issac go down on the previewed sandwich has made it all worth the while.You can read Lethal Dose for free over on tapas (since Smack Jeeves is dead, RIP sweet Prince):

Read Lethal Dose :: Chapter 10 | Tapas Community

Read Lethal Dose and more premium Slice of life Community series now on Tapas!

I've officially picked up Lethal Dose again. The online comic world is super different to what it was during the prime of LD days. I'm not going to be competing for the follows and the views and the marketing and daily updates. It's just not possible for me. But I will be creating and updating as and when I can. Which is hopefully often!I'm sorry I can't produce and update as often as other comics - I would love to be able to do that, but I hope you'll stick with me and enjoy the process as we go!

[lethaldosecomic]

Long time no see! I hope you're all doing well across these last...8 years? ^^;

Anyway, does this seem familiar? It's a redraw of Lethal doses first volume cover! (Can you believe there is enough LD comic to create two physical volumes?!)

I have uploaded all of Lethal Dose (that currently exists) to Tapas, the online comic site.

Its free so if you fancy giving it a read or reread, please check it out here: https://tapas.io/episode/241823

Felt like reading City of Bones to my partner (since he humours me very kindly while I fan girl out om the series).

So weird to be with Jace and everyone so young again!

Anyway, here are some mini warm up doodles 🥰

[laurenmurphyart]

Been obsessed with reading MHA lately so thought I'd doodle Bakugo doing some stretches in my free time (since Bakugo is bae obviously) and he's always doing the splits in the air so thought he better get on them groin stretches 😂

I recently had a baby so have not been able to draw..well, basically at all.

But I've been reading Chain of Thorns and started to draw a large piece of certain Lightwoods! 😉

This is a WIP snippet to hopefully get yall excited for the final piece.

I am 6 months pregnant and struggling immensely with my mental health in a way I have never experienced before.

I'm getting the help I need and I've been doing a lot of reading, meditation, yoga etc to try find some inner peace.

I recently finished a book called #theinvisiblelifeofaddielarue, which was a gift from my sister @shannons_quiet_place, I really enjoyed it and for the first time in 6 months I wanted to draw something for myself.

So here is Luc, much less suave then how I imagine him in my mind because I can never draw suave and beautiful people as suave and beautiful as I imagine them to be.

This is how bad art block can effect you.

It is a real thing and you shouldn't lose hope or beat yourself up when you have it.

I've attached my finished piece that I worked into months after I drew the original sketch (the second image).

I hated the original image, I thought it was so frigid and the anatomy was so messed up and I was so disheartened that I would never improve.

Now that I am out of my art block, I'm really proud of the finished piece and just how much I was able to improve it from the original.

Be kind to yourself and give yourself a break when you're having an "off" period.

You are capable and talented and will always bounce back 💪

Xinyan from Genshin without her ponies!

My laptop is doing smt weird lately and makes all my art crazy saturated on my phone but on laptop they look fine 😭

Any advise on how to fix this would be much appreciated!

Right now I'm just desaturising but the colour is still off...

[laurenmurphyart]

I stumbled across Jake Munros YouTube channel the other day and (other than nostalgic, funny and uncomfortably relatable content) my creative juices were flowing after I saw his aesthetic!

I had to draw him immediately because...I mean come on look at this style!!

(Plus as Lady Gaga said, when creativity strikes you have to immediately run to that pen or piano or whatever it is and follow it).

I hope if Jake (not such a "douche bag American" name 😜) ever sees it, he likes it!

Hi! Just wanted to drop by to tell you that I love your art, I'm obsessed! You're amazing, thank you for sharing it with us 🌹

That is so wonderful, thank you so much! 🥺 I find it easy to lose confidence in my work so that's really lovely for you to take the time to say - have a lovely day!

[laurenmurphyart]

I'm reading Chain of Iron by the wonderful Cassandra Clare (of course, I'm obsessed) and had to draw the magnificent duo Mathew Fairchild and James Herondale!

Caught in a rare moment of genuine joy and not drunkeness on Maths part...

The background is mostly red/brown because I always assume everything is brown I those times but I am no doubt mistaken 😅

[laurenmurphyart]

I have been in such a rut but have decided to not care so much about trying to be perfect (and subsequently being disappointed when I am not 😅☠) so have been having fun with my art again!

There are a lot of proportion issues with this one but to hell with it - here is my sexy Mortal Instruments shirt cut boob cleavage meme thing!

[laurenmurphyart]

Another #dtiys. Really fun to work on this beautiful character of #cikpuansb2k

I really hope that you like it!

"I'm so shyyy"

A fanart of the badass and sexy AF @ashnikko because her music and fierceness gives me life 🥵🔥💦

I have been in an art block for months but Mama Ashnikko was able to pull me out of my rut with this beautiful photoshoot of hers that I based this image on 💙

I really hope she gets to see this, I am genuinely grateful to her creativity for helping me with mine.
