TOKU FRIDAY 004: Kotaro/Nobuhiko

Here's a little change of pace:

Now you can sponsor the final version of this character design for €120!

Based on Kamen Rider Black,  these designs present my vision of two hapless brothers who both  suffered the same fate, but chose very different paths to follow.

  • Supporting this project will get you a DIGITAL file in print size...

Hey folks! Here's something nice for you - brand new digital fanzine - this time collecting all of my previous Book of the New Sun work, AND much more!

TOKU FRIDAY 003

A really grim week is ending with even more devastating Russian news today (I hope the next one is going to be better and I'll be able to actually tell you what was going on), but at least I had enough of these made in my "spare" time! (time "spared" from feeling like this 24/7)

TOKU FRIDAY 002

Insanely intense week -  we moved into a new apartment, then I had to tidy up our old place, and now I'm realizing that I'm missing out on a full week of actual work. But these little sketches were a real treat (as well as a buuunch of other that I won't be showing yet), and a daily way to take my mind off things and actually relax.

So - a really fun batch today! Bunch of k-pop biker...

TOKU FRIDAY 001

Here's something that's been on my mind a lot lately, and what I really needed to get out of my system, so...  I begin this Patreon-exclusive weekly series of tokusatsu character sketches, designs, and then (inevitably) commissions or simply personal drawings - all specifically dedicated to Kamen Rider.

Knifin' in Character

Big part of my comics process - especially if it's a really big book that requires a lot of commitment - is drawing these character expression sketches, sometimes laying the foundation for some actual big character moments in the future comic. I often scribble these while watching movies or browsing some photos online, so sometimes character take on appearance of people I see or think about. Th...

Had a massive pleasure of drawing this key art/banner for THE TOWER ON THE BORDERLAND - a really promising indie game by a very cool dev. So how about you go ahead and wishlist it on Steam, huh? ;) Because wishlisting actually helps with thos...

2024 bulletin

I'm figuring out my projects for 2024, and so far, it actually looks better than 2022 or 2023 did, at least in the beginning of each year! It's good to have at least some amount of expectation and prospects - along with approaching renewal of our residency permit for one more year in Serbia, and (hopefully) some modest travel plans, it brings a modicum of optimist to our life.<...

Cinematic Knife

Back with more First Knife II pencils (which I desperately need to start inking, at some point!)

This was a much anticipated page that I was really thrilled to get to do - and also scared shitless of actually draw. And now it is finally here - at least in pencils, that is!

This page also contains a little reference to one of my favorite movies - "<...

Knifing in Belgrade - 1.5 (scanning, toning)

GUNDAMTOBER 15: Cima Garahau/AGX-04 Gerbera Tetra

And on this, the Gundam series - and 2023 Inktober - finally ends! 

Thank you for following the series, and for making it possible by commissioning me to draw all these marvelous mobile suits in the last 3 years :3

See you in November with more new, non-Gundam art.
