From the (recent) archives.
Monochrome.
Vintage Fever Dream.
A cheeky little thumbnail for some future piece.
Practicing my inking as I move through my backlog of work, so I worked on some fan art of the crew from @miltonmvmedia.bsky.social Changa's Safari!
If you like what I do, or Conan in general, you should definitely check out his work; he's the undisputed godfather of Sword and Soul after all!
When illustrator @kuboartt.bsky.social drops into our Discord to share his work, we get pretty excited. His use of lighting and form, especially as applied to the full, round brown and rippling figures, is pretty evocative.
Anyway, here are some Kubo backshots, have a nice week.

Playing around with some pixels.
Thanks!
Last sketch of the year, see you all next time folks!
One from the archives. Happy Holidays and Merry Cheese Crusts everybody!
If we couldn't be reincarnated as Den, there's a strong chance we'd want to be Kubo's Shakar.

Dealing with a months-long burnout... So I decided to go back to my roots for a bit and rework a pretty old piece.
Some pieces are doomed to never get done... I've had this WIP since 2020.
Hey folks, I'm going to be moving out from where I'm at pretty soon and I'm looking to get some funds to make the process easier on my end as I move into a new place.
Here's a list of my prices. I also do commissions indefinitely so I'd appreciate the support, thanks!
Black and White!
Took a bit of a rest to reset my brain and I decided to come back and do some inking practice... which turned into a little bit more than that. Either way, it was nice to get into a bit of a flow state and just figure it out along the way.
While working on my comic book, I also decided to create an entire world map to go along with the setting.
The full version cover page of the comic book once you remove all the text...
I wanted it to look like an old pulp illustration, something you may have seen as a poster or pulp novel cover somewhere. It was really fun trying to figure that out.
I recently released my first comic book. It's sword and soul. Check it out and show your support!
