Moar Smugness

Angela’s condescension sense is tingling!

Smugness Levels Rising

Chess, why would you taunt? Don’t taunt!

Versus No More

Here’s a little piece to commemorate the closing of MAD Magazine. I haven’t read an issue since the 80s, but MAD was a huge inspiration growing up. The incredibly wacky Don Martin strips, the detailed caricature of Mort Drucker, trying not to destroy the back cover to reveal the secrets of Al Jaffee’s fold-ins are still...

Chess + Angela sketches

Something SFW this way comes!

Cheri

The fruit girl saga continues. Ignore how badly I screwed up her arms and focus on my clever use of late 90s hair tendrils and asymmetrical bun.

Rosemary Morgantosh

I don’t normally give in to demands, but I have to say I was intrigued by this comment on the Pear-shaped Rosemary from a few days back. It doesn’t say an apple-shaped one, but rather the apple-shaped one. Like I’m gonna read that and think, “oh that old classic.” Here’s...

Halftone Knights

Here's a nice scanned version of an alternate follow-up to the Knight ending of Angela's Magic Lesson. In this timeline, Angela does not find herself in a high-fantasy version of Underborough. Instead, she knights Winifred for some reason and instantly regrets it.

I'll have a color version when I have time, but for now ...

Unseasonably Cold

Yuki-onna TF for an upcoming Magic Lesson. I'm really happy with how the pattern on the kimono came out. Not too much trickery, I just did a gradient for the background color, did a 50% white along the hexagonal lines, then picked one solid light color for the snowflakes so they'd show up differently along the gradient.

The Pale Knight

A better version of Sir Winifred.

RosePEARy

Oh no, her pear martini is CuRsEd!

WHODA THUNK

This is Aubrey

She’s a strawbrey.

Yuki-Ongela Mk II

A couple years ago, I scrawled out a quick sketch of Angela as a yuki-onna. It was a sort of consolation prize because I couldn’t find a way to fit this particular transformation into the Magic Lessons. Fast forward to right now, when nature found a way. Anyone who remembers that post may recall the snowflake pattern on Ang...

Pale Knight

An armored Winifred sketch for beard-anon. Real drawing hopefully coming soon

Another Angela

I’ve been playing a bunch of Trials of Mana, aka Seiken Densetsu 3, aka Secret of Mana 2. I know there’s other stuff I should be doing, but this is a sequel I’ve been waiting to play for 24 years. Anyway, this is ToM’s Angela. She’s a princess and a caster, and if you want healing spells you’re just going to have ...

Imp Thicc

Bel enlists Angela’s aid in getting into a club. She just needs to be a little bit older, and if something minor has to be exchanged to make that happen, so be it.

A Bat-tail???

Winifred grows a tail! Sure, why not?

The Geishaburbs

Angela wanders around town fast-tracking her friends into geisha apprenticeships.

Bonus Sketches in 2019?!?!

A rare mail order of such magnitude (issues 1-18 & TPB4) calls for a double helping of bonus sketches! Both are ink and pencil on 6”x9” Bristol board, if anyone’s curious.

Exorcised?

Shrine Maiden Angela successfully drove an evil spirit away! Was it supposed to be there? Doesn’t matter; it’s driven, period. Angela’s goofy pose from the sketch translated well, I think. Now it’s a much more detailed goofy pose.

Shrine Epilogue sketch

Shrine Maiden Angela purifies Winifred of her vampirism, and apparently also turns her into first-Gorillaz-album Noodle.

Magikkuressun part 3

Color, yay!

Magikkuressun part 2

Not too different from yesterday's post, but this is a good example of process. Compare with yesterday's to see the difference line weight makes! Also, I penciled some patterns on Geisha Angela's kimono and fan so I wouldn't have to draw them in Photoshop. I don't get the same sense of scale when I try adding details (other t...

Angela’s Magikkuressun

I just want you all to know that I entered “Magic Lesson” into Google Translate to get this title. Anyway, here’s the initial inks of the Shrine Maiden and Geisha Angelas.

You Spook Me All Night Long

This E3, everybody is all agog over new gym leaders, short-haired Zeldas, bears & birds, etc. But why is nobody talking about this hot ghost from Luigi’s Mansion 3?

Nintendo Treeho

Look, I’m not proud of that title either, but the pun was right there. And I mean, Audrey is the closest thing to real life bimbofication we may ever see in our lifetime. Seriously, look up pics from past Nintendo E3 coverage... okay, I feel creepy. No more real people.

Koholint Island

Hype sketch while I count the minutes to Nintendo’s E3 Direct. Link’s Awakening is one of my all-time favorite games for a multitude of reasons. I admit nostalgia is one of them. I beat the game on a family beach vacation back in 1993, so the setting was perfect. Its history is pretty fascinating too. It was initially dev...

The Future’s Future’s Future

Nina Struthers fan art. If you don’t know who that is, look up Devolver Digital’s E3 conferences from 2017 on.

Buxom Bookworm

Shelley/Sha’leigh crossover fusion whatever. Their designs aren’t quite as different as Winifred and Wynnlythe, but I still wanted to have some fun with these designs.

Winifred Wan

Classic Win with several elements of the Wynnlythe Wan design. She also has Bayonetta’s leg/torso ratio.

Summer Fashions

No crazy concept or wacky premise today, just Angela looking adorable.
