Sam & Bowser Illustration Lines

Here are the lines for the illustration.  I took the advice offered and added more items in the foreground to try to balance things out. 

Sam & Bowser Illustration Concept

You guys voted, so here is the concept sketch for Sam's featured art!  I was inspired by Atsuya Uki's work (Digimon Adventure, Cencoroll)  in the idea of having everything "floating" in the image.

Update on the comic front!

Touching base with everyone -- I'm finishing up the last of my commissions and plan to start working on Let's Play soon.  The next chapter's script is done, the assets are built, I just need to bring the pen to the page.  So once I finish up the current two commissions I have, I'll post the next pages here.

Running References for Animation

I studied some gifs of anime characters running and made these running animations with ClipStudio's 3D software to help others if they need a reference for study.  Attached is the Clip Studio file I used with the animated cels.  This includes a determined run, a delicate run, and an awkward/clumsy run.

I might clean ...

Ashaduan Process

Commission for James and Sarah of their Final Fantasy XIV characters as an astrologian card. 

I used the existing in-game astrologian cards for referencing the bottom border of the card.  The rocks they're standing on and directly behind them is a custom brush for ClipStudio I made.  And the bushes are also a br...

December Update

Hi guys!  I wanted to thank everyone for their continued support of me over this past month despite the lack of updates.  With getting commissions out of the way, illness, weddings, and holidays I haven't been able to work on "Let's Play" and other projects as much as I'd want, but I hope to start working on them soon!...

Let's Play Comic Update

Hey guys, if you're not aware, I have to put my Let's Play Comic on hold temporarily.  As I've posted on other social media outlets, I've been slammed with an unexpected medical expense in upwards of around $2k dollars.  I had been told the procedure would be covered by my insurance, but once it had been performed, tha...

Possible Chapter 4 Wrap-up?

Hey guys, quick question.  I have a couple more pages in mind for chapter 4, however I don't feel the ending I have planned is that strong.  So, I could easily mesh it into chapter 5.  I think the final panel of the last page I just submitted would make for a good page-turner for the next chapter.  What do yo...

Mei and Snowball

I did the lines for this a couple of days ago on my time off.  Today I finished coloring it after "reading" a Japanese tutorial on properly selecting an anime-styled color palette. 

I hope you enjoy the high resolution version!  You're welcome to print it, just don't sale it.  ^u^

Bowser Animation

If you guys have Clip Studio, I wanted to post the clip file for the above animation.  It's my first real attempt at animating anything and I've already found a few tricks I could have used in Clip Studio since working on this, but I thought I'd share it anyway.

Sorry for the bad layer names, if I went in and changed them...

Clip Studio Paint Thorn Brushes 01

To install them, unzip the file, then click and drag the .sut file over to the Sub Tool panel you want the brushes to show up in.  These are under [Decoration] -> [Natural] on my computer.

I hope you enjoy!

Clip Studio Textured Rain Brushes

I spent the weekend watching and trying to read a collection of Japanese tutorials on creating custom brushes in Manga Studio.

To install them, unzip the file, then click and drag the .sut file over to the Sub Tool panel yo...

Hani was too distracted to notice her "creep alarm" going off.

Are you guys enjoying this?  Should I continue working on it?  Or should I move on to something else?  I'm not getting much feedback, so I worry people may not be interested in this project like I thought they were.

Doting Gai knows how squishy Hani can be, and Anko is finding his overzealous concern entertaining.

I forgot out high of a resolution I was working in this.  A PSD export from Manga Studio 5 is 6GB.  OnO

Junkrat and Roadhog sketch

Decided that instead of having Junkrat paint his bombs, I'd have him paint Roadhog's nails (since they're painted black).  XD

Painting Junkrat sketch

Sketch of my Overwatch fanart of Junkrat.  I thought it would be funny to have him painting the little faces on all his bombs.  XD

Overwatch Fanart

I'd like to do some Overwatch fanart, but I want to leave it to you guys on which character you'd like to see me draw.

Let's hear it!  :D

Quick Draw: You Came to the Wrong Neighborhood (Ver. 2)

You Came to the Wrong Neighborhood (Ver. 2) HQ

You Came to the Wrong Neighborhood (Ver. 2)

Here is the Pikachu crossover!  I can't come up with anything clever to call a Pikachu + Assassin's Creed fan art.  But I'll think of something.  XD

High resolution version available for $5+ patrons.  And the video will be posted soon!

Hello!

Thank you on your feedback of my last post -- as of right now, I'll leave my Patreon to charge monthly as that seems to be what works best for most patrons.

Also, I'm getting ready to work on a treat for you.  The last post I made asking for suggestions was kind of all over the spectrum, so I thought it might be a...

Rainy Day Hani Process

I just found out that Patreon now supports animated gifs!

Hello everyone!

A small update and question:  I'm over half done with this round of commissions.  But I wanted to ask you guys for your opinion.  When I first set my Patreon up, I had set it to "monthly" charges.  I didn't expect to get any donations until I had more time to give it some thought, but you guys swooped in and ...

Hello Lovelies!

For the next two weeks, I'll be working on some commissions, so I won't be posting updates for my comic Let's Play in that time.  However, I'd love to draw something special for you guys.  Any requests?  ^w^
