I know who the fan-favorite of the Cheapjack Gentlemen cast is, and I know there's been a distinct lack of him as the comic is currently focusing on Edmund and Dr. Crowley's backstory, so here are some random Wilkinson panels!

I've been casually working on touching up some art in scenes of Cheapjack Gentlemen that I was very displeased with. Here's a page that has been fixed up! (The full episode "Surgical Forte" is updated on Tapas & Comicfury.)

Hey there, sorry about the delay in answering.

I actually have a whole archive of concept art for Cheapjack Gentlemen over the years, and there's a few of younger Wilkinson in there. I'm still working on digging up old art but here you go!

I won't be reposting every page, but I'll reblog my favorite ones. In the process of uploading the entire comic here on Tumblr and also over on Instagram.

Something interesting I've observed over the course of making my comic has been the people who dislike Thompkins often dislike him for his obsession, timidity, and blatant missing of social clues -- rather than the things he's actually done wrong, like being a complicit accessory to crime or having relations with his married friend.

My original intent with him wasn't to write him as autistic, but he clearly is.

Pages 9-12 in color. That's all I'll be coloring for now. I wanted to have the introduction to each character in color for portfolio purposes.

If I'm being completely honest with myself...

...Making a longform webcomic has solidified my decision to never make a longform comic ever again. Unless I somehow magically become highly successful from and/or earn actual money from CJG, I'll be sticking to writing/illustration and short comics after I finish it (if I ever do). It's just so, so much more time and effort to make a comic for the same reward as making an illustrated story, and I regret not keeping CJG as such.

Still working on coloring a few more older pages of Cheapjack Gentlemen. Here's a newly colored panel.

Here's a preview of Cheapjack Gentlemen, you can read the entire (ongoing) comic here!

Medical schools didn't always hire resurrectionists, sometimes the medical students had to do the body snatching themselves.

Doing some concepts for near-future Cheapjack Gentlemen scenes. I love foreshadowing.
