I have a lot planned for this month, including work that isn't solely traditional pen and ink works, none the less I'll likely do as many Inktober pieces as I can to share. I'll share the 100pi scans as public posts and, if I do any further work with any of the pieces, such as digital colors, etc, I'll post higher res version...

Here's a low-res preview of a little Whispers bio-mechanical beastie. Traditional inks with additional digital inks/clean ups, textures in CS3, and screen tones with Clip Studio paint. I'll send up the 400dpi to the 5 dollar tier shortly. Much of the "Whispers" material will have high contrast inking, such as this guy, so the...

My break from posting online, due to the Animal Logic gig, ended up being a good deal longer than planned but I should be back to posting more regularly from this point on. Of course, I can't complain about the absence as I made a nice chunk of, "get back on your feet" money from that gig so I can press on ahead. The money wo...
2019-06-26 00:24:36 +0000 UTC View PostI'd planned to drop in a post or two, to both update the goings on and send up some tier 5 materials... however, I've gone down the rabbit hole of the kind of busy, and problems, you want to have. I kinda eluded to this in an earlier post, a fairly sizable contract gig came out of nowhere in late November last year. I've been...

Inked with Bimoji, Faber Castell, Sakura, and Copic pens. These are just the raw inks so they qualify for Inktober. Though I planned to do more "Inktober" stuff I actually ended up doing other work toward the end of the month (digital ink works and some other freelance work I can't post at this time) so, more of this stuff will ...

Inktober TKP Sendai beastie raw inks, save minimal cleanup and levels adjustments. I'll return to this cat later for a more cleaned up version. There are actually several other guys I did in this series I haven't posted yet but this one was done today so it qualifies as an "Inktober"
More on the way... a lot more....

Theos KE Polemos I.P.I.O. (Inter-bloc Private Investigations Organization) detective Heath Wuthering inks.

As we continue to march into October most folks that follow art on the internets likely know about Inktober, the month long challenge to do one traditional inked illo a day, or at the least one a week. Indeed I plan to drop some Inktober pi...
2018-10-06 03:10:48 +0000 UTC View PostA peek at a (6 pages of 4 designs each underway so far) collection of 4 Polemon vehicle designs. Here we have some retro future muscle, the line work version (there is a color version as well but I'll post that later).
These were small pencil thumbnails (about an inch in a half or so) I inked with Faber Castel pens. I sc...

2018-09-18 15:35:53 +0000 UTC View PostApologies for the seemingly late post this month but you'll understand why in a moment. Early in the month I got an e-mail (which I saw a few days after it was sent) from Patreon's Trust and Safety team informing me my page was switched and locked to the adult content setting... ? O_o Needless to say I was perplexed and immediat...
2018-09-18 14:37:41 +0000 UTC View PostA month of sorting out the landscape, both with the work and life without my Father to care for and talk to. As much as the dementia was an issue we did still talk a lot. I'd always try to keep him as grounded in the familiar as I could, both past and present. It was a lot of repetition and routine but it worked for the most par...

Yessir!
Another low-res full color peek. This guy's all primary color fancy pants. It's been awhile since I did these in full color (the 2013 batch was the last of the full color FOILs I did while caring for my Father early on, when his care was much easier) and it's great to be doing them again. This approach is faster a...
While dealing with Consumers Energy replacing an old copper gas line and... finding a gas leak in said line ( very minor and not the, holy damn you house 'sploaded kind) I've been working on various pieces and digging further through a ton of older art. Belting out some new color FOILs is just one of several things on the menu.<...

As the title of the post says, these are updated inks for an older FOIL design the Dies Quattra Val. As I've said in the into to this Patreon page, there's no lack of already existing content and no lack of desire to create new material... or revisit older work for creating even more additional content. I'm not about scrubbing t...

Multiple things cooking in the studio Easy Bake so sit tight, stuff is coming. Work will drop when it's ready to drop but, as I noted last month, August should see the pace continue to pick up, though pacing that pace I will certainly be doing.

With August underway I'm dropping the first actual new piece posted to Patreon. This is a preview of the inks for one of the first of many illustrations like this to come (ones already ready for completion tonight). There will likely be multiple iterations for various pieces so expect version/versions for the 5 dollar tier as we...

As I noted in the "about" section of my page I'm no longer caring for my Father full time due to his passing, on July the 3rd, from congestive heart failure and dementia related health issues. I am eternally grateful I was in the position to care for him all these years, however I'm now in the position where I have to (gladly an...
