Time for a hasty desperation post, dearest Patrons, as struggling to make deadline on the Harley Quinn short story I'm writing, penciling and—here's the problem—inking is currently kicking my butt.
Wellp, along those lines, here are the final inks and colors on that Wol...

So, here's one of the earlier "Endpage" features I did for the sadly defunct Playstation magazine PSM back in 2005, before I'd figured out a proper workflow for the pieces upon cranking 'em out on a monthly basis.

Wellp, the time has finally arrived for single-set posts of life drawings from random photoreference, as my once seemingly endless supply of sets from near-daily work in 2017 has dwindled down to a sadly diminished number. I'll probably wind up posting these single-image sets more often than the older double sets,a...

So!

Circa 2017 or so, I was supposed to work up a crossover DiD dealie for a long-term commissioner that would've pitted Empowered against the giantess Mount Lady (I think) from the manga My Hero Academia. Alas, I didn't get very far on the concept, but did work up som...

So, yeahp, I have another short story looming in the near future that I'll be both writing and drawing, this time a Harley Quinn dealie for DC Comics.
