Splash image showing a couple of shots of an anthro character, Wedge, based on Stagmomantis Limbata. Text from the top reads: WEDGE Dronesmith. Pilot. Hunter. "Salesman" ("Salesman" is in quotes) A quote from Wedge in his accent-font: "Favors are the best currency." First box of info reads: Wedge's reputation tends to precede him. He has a penchant for taking on business opportunities that more discerning spacejunk would pass on. His skills as an engineer are undeniable, but his tendency to meddle combined with his personality being an acquired taste has resulted in shipmates "forgetting" him at port more than once. Second, lower box of info reads: "Wedge has only recently reached full adulthood, though he’s been working for a while. Traditional clicktalk names don’t tend to work well in tradespeak: the name he goes by is of his own choosing. Unlike planetsider mantids, he keeps his raptorial blades hidden in sheaths between his wings and abdomen, preferring to keep whichever handguns he's currently tinkering with at the ready. [Redacted] reports him to be an excellent pilot, but others aren't so keen to take [Redacted]’s insight." Bottom has a note for following me at bsky @loopholelogs.art and for my comic, signed Cindy Hanahan

Comic page, test page showing two characters - no backgrounds used, one large female character based off of Lycaon pictus (Pebbleshot or Pebs, though her name isn't mentioned in this page) and a smaller male character based off of Stagmomantis LImbata. Pebs taking a cartridge out of a weapon, speaking with Wedge who looks rather cheerful and proud of himself. PEBS: You made an awful decision - WEDGE: Look what it got me! PEBS: It got you an incredibly nasty enemgy whom you've personally offended. WEDGE: By saving someone! PEBS: Your crewbie is going to need protection. WEDGE: And you think I can't manage that. Pebs looking more seriously/considering at Wedge. PEBS: Wedge you're a decent hunter - at the cost of everyone around you. You ain't any good at keeping other people safe and - Wedge is upset, defensive, interrupting loudly WEDGE: I said I was sorry! Pebs crushes the cartirdge in her fist. Enraged, yelling. PEBS: "Sorry" Didnt' pay my bills Wedge! Pebs returns to a normal volume while talking at Wedge - who grinds his mandibles in irritation. PEBS: I have years of training, first aid, and I was wearing armor. PEBS: If my understandign of Rhea's situation is correct, a fraction of that carelessness will cost her life. PEBS: Everyone once in a while I hope that you've grown up. PEBS: But you're the Same. Selfish. Ass.
Pebbleshot - known better as "Pebs", an anthropomorphic wild painted dog with a hearing clip in one ear and goggles over her face, yelling, crunching something in her hand with a CRUNCH sound effect and screaming "SORRY DIDN'T PAY MY BILLS, WEDGE". Sample panel for upcoming Loophole Logs comic.

Wedge, a character from Loophole Logs. He’s a vaguely humanoid mantis man with protective goggles and a vest. He’s trying his best to give a friendly chatty pose.
Splash art / bright and colorful art page featuring a mantis alien, posed with a wing out and arms up / blade in hand in place of a raptorial claw. He's posed in a way reminiscent of a pinned insect.
“Pichers” (child misspelling of “pictures”)
Humanoid character / action sequences? I used a lot of coded alphabets (still do!) and actually had pretty decent use of the pencil here. I went through some nerve damage in the intervening years that makes my work a bit more “shakey” these days. Best guess is this is 2005, so 17yo me.
Marker rendition of a brown cat with bright colored poncho, sunglasses, and green deelybobber antennae. Was apparently a character ref sheet. Circa 1999 - 12yo me.
