This was just a sketch for a larger, finished Batman piece I drew in December. It was done in ballpoint and dying marker. I don't mean some kind of special marker used to dye things, but a marker that was near death. The pencil is just there for scale.

The lady friend and I had a nice February afternoon on the beach. Meg found a starfish but almost lost a mitten. A homemade mitten from her mom! But I found it like the dashing hero man that I am.

She appears in Underburbs 16 as Hammer's personal assistant. She never showed up before, but everyone seems to know her besides poor, out-of-the-loop Winifred. And yeah, I snuck Winifred's transforming scroll into this sketch. Heather isn't wearing a Halloween costume of any kind, so the result would just be a random monster.

I sketched a dull pose on a page of the new issue, so I erased it and worked out these. I settled on the bottom right sketch, and still changed it up for the final. I tend to do a lot more erasing than I probably should because I just need to get something down on paper. I should make roughs like this first, but I feel like I co...

Hey, anybody remember Castlevania 64? It's a very flawed game with a lot of missed opportunities, but it holds a special place in my heart. I mean, it's the only CV game I've played that's crawling with vampires. I think VAMP status should have been a different way to finish the game rather than a game over. Imagine a CV game wh...

Jezebel "Bel" Brimston as she appears in issues 16-18. She's put on a little weight since issue 11, but that doesn't bother her. The boredom of not giving Winifred grief has been killing her, though.

Here's the antagonist of The Underburbs... well, wait. Is she? Sure, she's trying to claim the human world for monsterkind, but she's so tragically bad at it. She even has another character who thrives on antagonizing her! Things are not always so black and white. But what is certain is that the failure to conquer the world is b...

It looks like Angela and Winifred are having the same kind of weather I got in New England. Winifred asked Angela if she had any spells to make the winter more bearable. The answer to those kind of questions is always "well, sorta..." Just layer up, Winifred! Magic can't be the answer to everything!

Today I have the gall to try to pump up my most doodly daily doodle yet by calling it "concept art." I was inspired at a work meeting to sketch out some ideas for the next Underburbs trade paperback. The four issues it will contain all revolve around the business side of Winifred Pale's bid for world takeover: part-time jobs, sm...

Here's another panel of Underburbs #18 in progress. Those of you who have read Underburbs #17 were introduced to the Sexy Cop Unit (they call themselves that!).

Those of you who follow my DeviantArt page know about Angela's Magic Lessons. In fact, I wouldn't be surprised if that was many people's introduction to the Underburbs universe. It follows the main character Angela practicing magic and changing herself somehow. Sometimes it will lead to an illustrated short story showing how she...

It's only four weeks until the release of Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild, so I thought I'd do a quick warm-up sketch. This was maybe 5-10 minutes. I really need to start timing myself.

A little break from the Underburbs-centric postings. I don't know how I reached 39 years of age without doing a sketch of Lydia from the Beetlejuice cartoon. Doing a color sketch helps make up for it a little. I know the palette isn't 100% accurate, but I was just using whatever markers were lying around at work.

Those of you who hung onto every word of dialogue in Underburbs #10-11 may recognize this name. Bel's attitude towards her may have suggested that she was a rival. Turns out she's pretty normal.
