– So every month I do a new bit of “Medusa dressed as something I like”. It gets posted here and made into a special sticker for my Patreon backers. It’s fun and gives me a chance to draw things I just don’t really get to draw much. This month’s is probably the most obscure one yet. Here’s Medusa as a samurai. But not just any samurai. This is Medusa as a Crab Clan bushi from Legend of the Five Rings. L5R is a very long running CCG made by the people who did 7th Sea, my all time favorite CCG. I’ve never been super hardcore about L5R, but I’ve played a bit here and there over the years. I am a huge fan of the Crab Clan though, a samurai family of huge, ill tempered warriors and sinister shugenja that dedicate their lives to defending an enormous wall that separates civilization from the demon infested Shadowlands. Pretty cool! The Crabs are sometimes the bad guys of the story and sometimes the good guys, an one of them blew up the moon once and than became god, so that’s pretty great. Anyway, here’s Medusa as a badass Crab Samurai. Some friends and I each bought a deck of cards from teh new set last month and have been playing teh game a little. It’s fun!

Speaking of Patreon, we hit our $500/month Milestone goal earlier this month. Thank you all! So starting this month I’ll be doing a monthly live drawing session that everyone is welcome to check out. I’m still working out the details, but expect the first one to happen late this month. We’re just $300 from the next Milestone goal, which is a regular “Ask Medusa” feature. You’ll be able to send in questions and I’ll draw little strips of Medusa answering them. I’m actually pretty excited about this! This next Milestone goal is also important because once it’s reached the Patreon will be generating enough money to cover both my home and studio rent. That’s big for me. That’ll make a huge difference.

If you’re digging the comic and would like to show support you can check out my Patreon page here. Even small amounts are super appreciated! Thanks!
