A real breather of an issue - Simon helped me A LOT with opening sequence's layouts, managing so many quick interactions and dialogues in a perfect Roy way; and then in the end of the issues I squeezed in a couple of manga-esque, digitally drawn action pages. It was a couple of months when I got weirdly thirsty for 2020-08-19 11:03:00 +0000 UTC View Post

This was the largest and probably the hardest issue to make. But also, it was the first issue we worked on after long-long-long hiatus after our pitch was greenlit by Image, and a lot of my style was constantly changing as the issue progressed. So many little things I only grasped at the end of 7 Deadly Sins were finally allo...

Did a poster for Herzeg Novi comic festival; I guess this original could be for sale?
(My laptop-tablet-scanner setup is currently disassembled, so no scanned and colored version yet!)
Also: this piece is the rare example of my pencils taking more time and effort than inking. Inking it was light and bre...

Me and my buddy Artyom Doomov are co-writing a story for blood-fi anthology DAGGER DAGGER (and don't you miss it now on Kickstarter, if you SOMEHOW did before now!) The character designs I'm posting here are probably not final: me and Artyom will be going back and forth with the characters before I start finalizing e...

Protector #5 is out today, and to celebrate completion of the series here, I'll be posting full issues worth of black and white pages for your sophisticated pleasures from time to time ! ^___^
And of course, I will be happy to discuss progression of the series with you, my dear patrons. Final stages of this ...

Broken clock is right twice a day, and maybe someone who hates coloring process as much as I do still enjoys doing it twice a year ^__^
(Hit me up with a DM if you want to buy the original from me. If nothing happens, I'll eventually send it to my art dealer!)

Pay attention to process photo #4 here: the sun is setting in this picture, gently washing our new oaken kitchen table and the measly sheet of paper in its reddish delight!

Less process shots this time around, as the whole piece was inked by me in bed yesterday :D
GUUUHHH, I'm so happy with how this one turned out to be!
Me: telling how every single mentat in my Dune series is going to have a mohawk hairstyle and then completely framing it out of image as I reach third mentat in the series -__- But yeah, believe me, Hasimir is rocking one! Although it looks suspiciously like Táborský's famous lock o hair....
Also, mister Fenring's (if...

We had Psycho Zaku before, and now here's Io Fleming's ride, too! Whooo!

DUNC is back, baby! I hope I'll be able to pump not four, but at least two fresh drawings on a weekly basis.
Went quite abstract for the Super Rabban Bros . Don't really care for the book descriptions, haha - those two should just work well next to each other - and Feyd should stand well against Paul.

I was working of some of my last BLM commissions - which were supposed to be digital, but... You know... What the hell, I had a sketchbook on me! And so here's some process for a cute (hopefully?..) Star Wars drawing.

Last charity commission on paper for now (still need to do 4 digital drawings!). We raised $920 for good causes, and I'm super happy about it!
Life keeps serving me shit pies for some reason, tho. Gotta investigate that. For fuck's sake

I'm so happy with the piece that I even got a picture of myself with it! :D
There's been a lot of struggle on the way - in the process photos you could notice a few drastic changes I made to the face of Galactus while inking it (I tried white ink, but ended up gluing spots of blank paper on top of places I didn't like)....

It's very fun to get back to colored markers and brushpens from time to time, and smaller commissions are always a good occasion for it!

Two commissions from this week! Phewh!
Thinking about running some urgent commissions for BLM charities via Twitter later today or next week, and I'm so anxious about finding the better way to organize it... Also, not sure if I should do big pieces, small pieces, or digital drawings without originals?

So, regarding that new Patreon tax thing (you all should be getting some emails about that stuff today): I tried to set everything up so that none of my tiers are taxable. it's all either 100% general support, or one-time gifts. So, there should be no extra payments on your side - or at least I hope so. The new rules sh...
