Soul Dynamo (quick illustration)

Been a busy month, mod moving and some other areas of concern, but I decided to self-indulge a bit and do a small illustration of Syron.

I still hold this character very close to the chest, most people aren't as familiar with him as Matilda, but I often find him to be the closer representation of my emotional self of my OCs. Every once in a while I draw him to see if the core of my cr...

Some fun stuff before I move,

Aeryn - Armalith Σ (illustration)

Aeryn Illustration with some lore around the second known Armalith weapon aside from Ω. Σ is the second discovered Armalith in the Abysm story arc, acquired by Aeryn during her tenure in Limpet, the most technologically-superior guild known to inhabit the Maze. During a mining operation to unearth a significant Armalith discovery under the supervision of the Guild's leader Caspian, a catas...

Dec (end of year update)

Hey everyone, hope your end of 2025 is coming to a close on a good note. I wanted to provide some updates at least for transparency.

As you might know if you're in the Tavern server, this month was rough on me and Kerb. Tremendous medical issues on both sides of family, pet medical emergencies, and scheduling a move to a new city have made it very tough to complete anything. I'm in t...

Matilda - Dawnbreak (illustration)

Heyo all, almost time for the Thanksgiving season, hope ya'll are hungry and hanging in there.

Getting a bit back into it with my personal work after a bunch of owed stuff getting finished, I figured I'd get some posing practice. This was meant to be a much smaller thing but I ended up painting it over 2-3 days instead. The results came out pretty nicely. (channeling a teensy bit o...

Isn't halloween without proper skimpy outfits, right? (or in this case just a hat)

Sudden impulse to draw Matilda as something less... knighty? (way too scary)

Abysm - Prologue

Good morning! This upload contains the entire ABYSM Prologue (20 pages). I decided that at least for the prologue, uploading it all at the same time was preferable.

The story starts off with two adventurers in a strange world, recounting the events of something that's already happened (or about to!). This serves to set the stage for Act I - Matilda, which will be next!

Comic Update - Abysm I - Prologue soon!

Hey all! Wanted to provide an update on the comic:

Right now I am wrapping the final panels for the Prologue, which I think ended up coming out to 10-15 separated panels. I also have decided that the prefered method of telling my story will be webtoon with its infinite scroll capabilities. That said, I plan on finishing the last bits of this over the week/weekend so I can finally get ...

Sept Update (status on Abysm Webcomic 1 - Prologue)

Good Morning everyone! Hope the start of your fall is going well.

I wanted to provide an update on September workings since I've had a few questions regarding the perceived inactivity. I'm actually hard at work chugging out the first webtoon comic for Abysm. Currently this probably sits around 8-10 pages unseparated, but since it's webtoon format I plan to release it in the longer dig...

Abysm - Compass

Quickie done in 2 days over the weekend for warmups/fun. Working on getting a very quick version of my painter style going so I can make more frequent art.

Not much to say on this one, but I did have a friend on discord ask a pretty interesting question regarding Compass functionality in the Abyss/Maze.

- Magnetic compasses are useless entirely, as there are no known poles in th...

Syron 2025 - Shattered Body

coloring warmup while I ditch being sick, moving back to some of the paint work on the larger Syron composition.

This was a conceptual pass on how his arms might work, keeping them as floating components but bringing back the arm silhouettes. Best method seemed to mimic muscle groups/bone structure when in a non-fighting state. I also experimented with the idea of a more visible crys...

RAINE - OC design commission

Hola everyone!

First post in a while, but my August was very full of driving to other parts of the country. That mentioned, please take a look at this:

In early june I was commissioned to create someone an OC with the general ideas surrounding FFIX, Burmecians, and a similar but derivative take on Freya Crescent for someone in my server. Seemed fun so I jumped.

I took som...

updates - complicated august

Happy August everyone! I wanted to provide an update regarding the state of my patreon and August. So, things remain complicated, as a death in the family and other obligations requires my attention for two-weeks this month, Based on this, I will try to get some items in by the end of the month, but in the event it doesn't manifest (although I have one larger commission project I will upload...

small update, complicated july

Heyo everyone. I wanted to provide an update for July as I know things have slowed down quite a bit. This month saw me needing to deal with quite a few medical issues (not mine but my spouses) which meant I had to take on some side work to help deal with it. Overall it's requiring me to divert my time to some side items. I also went through a depressive issue, but I am getting help with it ...

Matilda - Gold Trim (SFW)

small doodle I refined out this week while making sure the Kerb was ok. My take on something that was originally going to be the gold bikini but I switched gears toward the end. I do plan to do a topless paintover, but that's a weekend task.

Pulchra - ZZZ

Piece I did to add to the pin-up pile (sadly no alts this time, perspective ended up being hard enough). This one was a bit tough for me and isnt perfect but I still think it came out alright. Next fanart piece will get some more planning so I can work with the alts if needed.

Sy revisited (2025)

bit of a personal project after wanting to try it for some time. I wanted to revisit Syron properly after many years of shelving him. I think that i'm now good enough to properly manifest the character as I've always pictured him, incorporating many different bits of his design over a long span of time. ultimately I want this to culminate into a single piece showcasing the character. No ide...

Intertwined

piece I started as a 1-year anniversary gift for my wife. I actually plan to do more with this but it requires some more illustrating around the characters. I did think it was good enough to post though. For those who don't know, this is a ship, and it is canon.

Been studying a lot of Nomura art recently too, really trying to get more of the hand-crafted feel in my work.

Speed Demon (hd + project file)

personal project that took a bit that I wanted as a portfolio piece. I was really feeling doing something cyberpunky. This exercise took considerably longer than I thought as it required making a character as well as all the assets in the project since I didn't want to rely on 3d and too much bashing outside of using some lightmaps from city photography (proof that I could do it myself when A...

March updates

Hey all, wanted to provide an update for March. So far a there are a few projects I'm putting some time into, but aren't quite ready to show yet. Also, if you're in the loop, I retired my twitter at the beginning of this month for personal reasons. This won't mean an impact to what I post here, but I did get a bit of emotional whiplash from it, so it is admittedly taking me a little longer t...

Abysm - Continue

Get up again.

Quick image to showcase the timelapse function on CSP and a little bit of vent art. Very burnt out and directionless this week.

There is a 12 minute speed lapse if anyone is interested, but its larger so I would need to adjust it to get it uploaded. (also it recorded at a funky resolution)

Matilda - Weird Setbonus

bit of an art collage sketch that I wasnt so sure about at first and I ended up doing a paint pass on all of them. I found an interesting piece of armor/clothing on pinterest and drew matilda in it, poking a bit of fun at the idea of her being rather chesty under her normal top. While it is a provocative set, this was some practice for me to paint some form and squish.

Possible return of postcard sendouts?

Heya! I hope everyone is having a good winter so far and staying warm.

I wanted to vet some interest in possibly bringing back an old reward for postcard art sendouts. I've made a bunch of artwork that I feel would be more than postcard-worthy and would allow for a more personal thank you sendout should that interest you. Ideally it would be a balance of the Abysm development artwork ...
