And lo, a couple more finished commissions!
Najalin for Brandon. (It's always good to learn about Exalted through people who commission me for their characters.)
Myrrie, for Orm. (She's such a cute tiger bab).
Going to start on the next round next week!

My final character design for East Coast Adventures is definitely not least.
Meet Simon, our heroes' big mean adversary, and the cause of all the suffering in their lives. Probably. He's a bad dude.
East Coast Adventures is an upcoming actual play podcast, and I was honored to design several of the NPCs for the show. For more information on East Coast Adventures, and the Faustian No...

September was a whirlwind of a month, but it was good to keep it steady for my first few weeks back. Old commission queue and old Patreon sketches will be done by the end of the week, and I'll have started the new one.
But October is also a month of drawing challenges, and apparently, a LOT of fandom ship weeks. 😱 Am I ever going to find time for them all? No. Bu...
Well look at that... A new sticker order has gone through, and preorders are live now for patrons! Two new designs, with link to the listing, and a restock of an old fave. They will ship first of the month, as they should be in stock this Friday! Grab a print or another few stickers while you're at it....

I've been kind of operating on slow mode this week, getting over being sick and preparing for my sister's wedding. I've managed to sneak in a bit of personal work through, though.
About to finish up the three commissions from my old queue this coming week, and I'm ready to start on the next one!
2022-09-23 14:53:33 +0000 UTC View PostThe overwhelming majority for next month's illustration was traditional media. We're working with markers again, lads.
But what should I do?
We've got the 30th anniversary of Sailor Moon.
I've been on a huge danmei kick, and should probably draw some Heaven Official's Blessing Fan Art.
Or maybe I should work on something original? It is Halloween, and I could continue fr...

I dodged COVID for almost three years, and at DragonCon two weeks ago, but managed to catch it somehow.
I'm resting now, but I made a huge rush of progress earlier in the week. Hope to finish these up next week when I'm feeling better.
2022-09-17 15:49:34 +0000 UTC View PostSo I uh.... Added discord benefits to the server. I had no idea it would AUTOMATICALLY drag everyone into the server. If you got yote into my Discord server?

Elliot and Sandy were a doodle creation in during a really stressful time. They're relatively new characters, but they really got me through the last month and a half. Just imagining their hijinks and adventures. They started out as little notepad scribbles taped into my sketchbook, and on a coworker's computer. And now they have an illustraton.
It's still a sketchy little thing, and most...
2022-09-15 15:07:05 +0000 UTC View PostIt's monthly illustration time. I know, it's been a while since these have been monthly. I actually want to keep concentrating on this for streaming, that way I at least always have at least something I can put aside from stream days!

We're making up for lost time, lads. We're into the January portion of owed sketches, and here they are.
Orm's Destiny 2 Titan
Alun, but as a Transformer for Dan
Bremma's Cool Cat
C'atoh in a Comfy glam for Mike
Asra, an OC for wreckerbooty
One more batch to go. Thank you guys so much for holding out for me.

Thank you all so much for your patience!
2022-09-09 13:46:06 +0000 UTC View PostHey Stars.
As you've probably noticed, the new tiers aren't live yet. That's because I haven't had the chance to set them up quite yet! This past week and a half has been a complete whirlwind what with trying to get my affairs in order, and DragonCon prep.
But now that's out of the way, I'm happy to announce that the tiers will be boing live Friday, September 9 2022-09-06 00:34:36 +0000 UTC View Post
One last bang before the month is out, and tiers start changing.
I've been doodling these little guys lately. They really helped me get through these rough last few weeks. I hope you enjoy Elliot and Sandy, because I think I'm going to be doing a lot more with them, later.
A cleaner version of the line art is available for download. It's kinda rough, but you should be able to work w...
2022-08-29 20:30:25 +0000 UTC View PostHello Stars, Galaxies, Universe.
The better part of the past year has been a whirlwind. An exhausting whirlwind that's thrown myself and everyone through a back and forth and up and down. I can't say "the end is in sight", but what I can say is that things are going back to the way they were prior to October 2021 (mostly). And then some!
I hope this is a good ...

This was long overdue. I actually ended up finishing it last month, but if any of you have been in Discord, you know what a special new brand of Bull Shit I've been dealing with. Again, I appreciate you guys for sticking with me.
It's Guild Wars 2 's tenth anniversary, and I really want to do something else for it. This game has been such a light in my life for the past several years.

Guess what I'm starting back up?
Stream schedule coming soon.
So is that download for patrons. And a better than a cellphone pic of this WIP.
I'd say I'm back but I tend to curse myself when I do.
I've been sick the past several days, but I finished this in between resting, so I could actually get up and move around for a little bit. Watercolor, gouache and POSCA. Originally wanted to make the bats purple, but I didn't have a pen fine enough in that. So white it is. lol
High res version is available for patrons. With more NyQuil influenced rambling.

Since my previous upload was butchered by mobile quality (seriously, I had no idea it'd do that!!), here's a repost.
I'm really happy with this design, and the cast is ecstatic. I can't wait for everyone to meet her in the show!
Please be sure to follow East Coast Adventures and Faustian Nonsense for more information on the project!

Another NPC to add to the mix. Lia is a swashbuckling pirate, and the sister of one of the main player characters in the show. I can't wait for you guys to meet her!
One more NPC design coming up. ECA is hoping to launch later this year!
I'm also uploading this from my tablet. I really hope the quality wasn't as butchered as it appears.
My work went into a partnership. Which means we also had an entire system change over. I have been working between 10-12 hour days for the past two weeks and think I'm actually dying.
That being said, my goals for next month:
Actually stream
Finish the over due sketches (THEY'RE ALMOST DONE!!)
And finally, finish my GW2 illustration.
I think it's doable.
Ganbatte,...
I'm actually hoping to finish this by tomorrow, but I thought I'd throw these up here anyway.
Another East Coast Adventures NPC I'm excited to soon introduce.

Last year I was part of the Spoils Of War, a charity fanzine dedicated to Ares from Hades. The proceeds went to a wonderful organization, and now that all preordered copies have been released, I can share my piece with you! I was inspired by one of his voice lines, as well as old war propaganda posters. But of course, with my own spin.

I haven't been as productive this month as I've wanted to. Much needed house work, both in and out, as well as finishing deadlines, and a bad flare up of my arm has really put a damper on things.
Sometimes I really fret about keeping things going here, and how I keep being so awfully inconsistent and can't seem to ever follow through with most of my promises since the end of last year. I...
