I really enjoyed having a moment when Jacobi’s self-assured facade breaks
Jacobi in this moment is meant to be like Lucy at the brink of losing her grandmother’s cooking school #GHliveblog
I wish I’d had a better grip on Jacobi’s family situation—like I feel like I didn’t strongly convey that even though they are fond him, their absolute refusal to support his dreams when he’s doing poorly or accept his help when he’s doing well is bad?? #GHliveblog
This isn’t meant to be v noticeable, but when Jacobi is using his photographic memory, the reflection in his eyes is usually the thing he’s remembering! #GHliveblog
I held a poll about what kind of facial hair to give Jacobi’s grandpa but I ignored the results and gave him a moustache lol
(Even though they look quite different, Jacobi and his grandpa have the same eyes!) #GHliveblog
I love Jacobi’s silly beekeeper family.... I wish I could’ve shown more of them! #GHliveblog
This is the first time Joanna and Walt get food icons! Previously, it was difficult because Lucy, Joanna, and Walt are all apples—so I kind of bent the rules a bit with the hot sauce and apple-with-glasses #GHliveblog
Despite the fact that it’s a one-off food and insignificant to the plot, this panini is one of my favorite foods I’ve drawn (it’s up there with the confit byaldi and Heath’s rose apple tarts) (but nothing overtakes the cheese plate) #GHliveblog
Because they are similar people, with intentionally similar arcs! They lose their family, are saved by Lynn, then lose Lynn—and are desperate to hold onto a place that represent their family, which brings out the worst aspects of their determination #GHliveblog
Ik readers interpreted the black word bubbles as “Lucy’s dark side” (which is valid), but they’re meant to indicate both Lucy and Jacobi defaulting to their unhealthy, traumatized mindset of “No one will help me, I have to do this on my own” #GHliveblog
I always knew someone was going to steal Lucy’s necklace at some point, so I was looking forward to this scene!
But I was also very nervous, because I wasn’t sure if I could convey “ruthless, manipulative, and desperate, but not evil” very well #GHliveblog
