Never Fly Commercial

This was a patron commission that included a character not yet shown in the comic! Satri Lockridge will be making her debut in Volume 2, but don't expect her to be a nice. She's a powerful business tycoon that is... you guessed it, the mother of Winston Lockridge. She's crude, elitist, has a short tolerance for just about any...

A Panel Mascot :3

All this week, I've been preparing for a panel presentation I'm giving at MFF in a month regarding comics. I knew I needed a mascot of some sorts, so I created this little guy. His assistant shows up a few times, but but these are more or less the abundance of drawings for the presentation, running about 36 slides. I'll have ...

Cashmere Sky at Midwest Furfest 2022!

I wanted to make this announcement sooner, but I had to hold off until I had all the puzzle pieces together! There's a few parts to this!

For those in the midwest and Chicago area from December 1-4, I'll be attending my very first Midwest Furfest convention as a dealer! This con has rec...

I've committed blasphemy :3

The ONLY reason I would ever commit this sin in a cat universe is um.... my sister asked me to paint her dog for her birthday. His name is Lamprey, he's VERY old, and dodged euthanasia a couple weeks ago when he suddenly sprung to life again for a bit. He's a good boy, but unfortunately not long for this world. At least his l...

The weather forecast

As more proof that I am indeed chugging away on a long scene in the comic, I wanted to challenge myself with moody weather shots using more muted colors.  When you introduce the elements, you have to think about atmosphere both literally and figuratively hehe. Here's an upcoming shot of a new area.... not Ion Valley :P.<...

Another sketchdump!

I keep falling behind on these sketch dumps as they're a pain to organize, but I got the next one ready! I do these scene by scene. It's sometimes entertaining to see the story told only through drawings, even as a collage. At points you can almost see what might be happening.... perhaps a call about an extended car warranty?...

Wedding Day

I finally cleaned it up! These were better times.... for sure. :]

I'm happy how Holly turned out. :P

Look who's back!

Not to be a major spoiler or anything, but I wanted to make a rare post of sharing a fully drawn page, long before it will be read (no dialogue of course hehe). 

As you can see, Abram has been resurrected from harvesting the souls of a thousand bodies and performing a dark ritual that brought him back as a half dem...

Would you like some OJ?

Here's part of a cleaned up page in the next scene coming up. It's a big one too. Based on how simple this section is... there's still explosions in it lol! Orange juice packs a punch I guess! (not really a spoiler)

Holly isn't going to be happy if she sees him drinking out of the carton. Hmmm. XD

P.S. I really ha...

And Happily Ever... After?

Sometimes I punish myself with the details, but I find it necessary for visual storytelling. I sketched this up tonight for a single shot in a scene that explains information without needing to go into detail.

As you can see, this is Holly and Abram's wedding day. Times were optimistic with their whole lives ahead of th...

Ultrawides of the first pages

These haven't been released anywhere as of this moment, but I wanted to post these for patrons. I had initially designed the first 4 pages for a double-wide page shot since they would eventually go to print. I feel you can see the scope of them better this way. I was aiming for that Disney brochure look with the contrast of A...

Some Jolly Holly Sketches

As I've started the next scene, Holly takes a more center role in the story. However, if we do this... we need to pop open a bottle of wine right? There's a lot more to this scene than Holly drinking, but she's fun to draw as I keep trying to lock in her design.

Please note, these are VERY rough sketches and will be cle...

I doubt the charm is working on Joyce. :P

New Volume 1 Covers!

They're finally done! There might be some very small touch-ups here and there, but these are near final. The goal is to convey everything the book is about.

Protagonist on the left, antagonist on the right, with the boys caught in the middle, all while showing Ion Valley, airships, and an eye catching color palette. Hop...
