Psycho Zaku, Harbinger of A Zine (commission)

Okay, here's the deal: ask me for a $60 Gundam commission, and it will probably become a part of future zine! ;)

Beetles!

Cut from civilization almost completely, unable to print out my digital sketches, I'm degrading back to my MangaStudio roots with some of my work!

The cool thing is - digital inking allows way more of my favorite tricking with separated multilayered lineart. And I'm always down for that.

End of the month

Howdy, my dear and beloved patrons!

Here's a couple of properly scanned commissions from this month  - the previously shown Graveslinger piece and Charles Forsman's REVENGER.

I'm planning on doing (and obviously, showing here!) more commissions pretty soon - along with some art from Prot...

"CONGREGATION" update (Slavic Nihilism #4)

As I'm working on my short comic about Orthodox Eschatology and 90s Russia, the world around crumbles, and it feels very weird and "prophetic" - in a lazy, unnecessary way. Like I'm trying to do some Important Work here and not just have fun with the shit I love.

But hey.

At least I'll be scoring some Nostalgia Po...

PRTCTR TPB CVR

This one should be revealed in I think about a month from now (supposing the trade does not get moved from July forward), but I just can't wait anymore! 

A bunch of pages from issues 4 and 5 will be sent to Comi...

Reshooting my Tatooine scenes

Recently I was commissioned to redraw a panel from THIS failed Graveslinger comic (moving it out from behind the $5 paywall - for those of you who are actually reading my posts ;))<...

Protector #3 sneak peek

Surprise!

Right now I'm skiing down the mountain (or sitting on my ass in a bank of snow!), but here are the opening pages of Protector #3 for you! Some of the trickiest and thickiest pages I've done to this day, and I 'm very proud of it <3

Love you all. Cheers!

A cover for a certain something!

Tomorrow we're leaving for our annual Family and Skiing trip to Novosibirsk, and I want to leave you with something exciting! So here's a cover (only in inks for now) for a book I very love and very honoured to contribute to <3.

Cheers! See ya'll after 17th!

90s COPS ARE BASTARDS

There hasn't been a TON of progress on Nihilism in the last couple of weeks, but I'm going to Novosibirsk this Saturday, and damn if I don't make the trip a Nihilism vacation!

Hellboy 2020

Very happy about this piece, drawn out of spite yesterday (well, a better way to put it would be "drawn during strong emotional turmoil as a means to calm myself down through textural and patternal meditation").

Some o...

He Protecc, he protecc, but most importantly he protecc

PROTECTOR #2 is out TODAY, so here's more of my favorite pages for you! 

Let me know what you think about this issue -  it definitely makes up for some of the lacking (supposedly?..) characteristics of #1.

Protector #2 preview (pencils/inks)

Love this sequence so-so-so much. After nearly 4 years of waiting, getting back to the book and basically drawing both Hesukristos and Mari "in action" - meaning "acting" - for the FIRST time was a ton of fun. Most of the Cyborg poses here are based on bear posture and movement; and Mari is incredibly agitated and animated co...

Protector #2 preview

 (UPD - DAMN!!!! Forgot about nice splash Page 3 here! It's fixed now) 

I'm not sure what's going on with Protector #2 promotion and why any previews for it are so late, but at least you could have a peek here!

I'll also post the pages in BW tomorrow ;)

MAGNUM OPOSSUM (2020)

Well, here we go! My first attempt at compiling some sort of artbook/sketchbook/portfolio is here, for your digital library needs! Contains selection of my very different works from 2017-2020.

Download it here:

(You need to watch the video)

Good policeman for next issue of Slavic Nihilism!

Protector #2 pages!

Issue #2 comes out petty soon, yay! Can't wait for you guys to see the entire thing. It's big (28 pages), intense, and goes into many places. I even wish that maybe we were able to merge #1 and #2 together into an over-sized monster of a first issue, haha.

LOUHI OF POHJOLA

A non-Patreon commission with a huge not to John Bauer and even huger nod to Gallen-Kallela...

Nosferratu, The Wrath of God

 (Yes, this is Max Schreck's ORLOK with Isabelle Adjani's LUCY! I know - MAD crossover!!! :D) 

I did a thing

Can't wait for you guys to get a good look at this whole thing...  But it's too early, even for patreon :D

"CONGREGATION" - 1

"He's doing it with the notebook again! Someone, please stop this madman!"

Finally getting to draw my Slavic Nihilism #4 story, phew! For a couple of months, Saturdays and Sundays will become Slavic Nihilism Time in this household. It won't appear here as a proper webcomic, but I will ...

GNARLY stuff from 7 SINS

I bet you thought I have no videos from this book left? Hahaha!

(Actually, I only have just one video left - damn!)

This page is HELLA spoilery and HELLA gnarly. Also it's one of the few pages from the book I still look at fondly! 

(Luckily, I'm not the one making judgment here)

...

Am I insane to do it this way?

Yeah, probably!

A Soldier and a Devil

A free-form non-Patreon A4 commission of random Slavic Nihilism bullshit for a very good artist! <3

Oscar of Astora commission

Here's another Patreon commission! <3

I'm very fond of Dark Souls series (shocking!) and very happy about every time I get an occasion for drawing Souls folks.

Non-Nihilistic affairs

Hey there, everybody!

Here's a little sneak peak from the new project I'm working on. IT'S NOT A PART OF SLAVIC NIHILISM, I REPEAT, IT IS IN NO WAY A PART OF SLAVIC NIHILISM, but still, some posts regarding it are on $3 level already, and more will probably follow ( just for th...

F R I E N D S (best to worst)

Finally, another book for your $5+ library! Yay!

This little zine is very precious to me. Really hope I'll be able to print it on my favorite nice paper with transparent parchment for cover, but for now, I have enough troubles with my riso printer as it is (my Souls Love vol.1 reprint is THREE MONTHS late T__T).

A...

More "Anatomy of Hell"

Can't wait to start drawing the actual comic, hhhhhnnngggh

Also, here's a tiny mood board for the story, only to make you more confused:

X-Force!

Another big Patreon commission, and after a long pause - another process video! Hope you'll enjoy this one (even though my camera shut off 5 minutes before I finished it -_-

This is maybe my fourth or third time drawing X-Men, ever, which is kinda weird with the industry I'm in. I can't say I'm that int...

Some Sins to look at

Been going through my originals from issues 3-6 of THE 7 DEADLY SINS (finally ready to send some of those, along with issue 1-3 of Protector, to my dealer). Felt cute about those and decided to post here!

Finally, some proper Nihilism!

I very rarely do "skethcbooking". Even more rarely I take pride of what I "sketch". But this book (Anatomy of Hell) is just too damn exciting, and my little notebook feels so pretty filled by dozens and dozens of Slavic demons!

(Don't get any wrong ideas from the TKO sticker on the sketchbo...
