That bottom panel is blank cuz I was also on 🍄 when I did this and didn't finish it

Berserk-inspired spread I did back in 2022(?) I wanted to try and capture that wind-up -> explosion of movement that Miura's fight panels are so well known for. #cabaris #comicart

Sorry for the silence :p finishing up the 2nd volume of my comic, here's some concept art for it~ #cabaris #artistonbsky

A lil project from my figure drawing class. We got to get a little creative with how to portray our model, so I had to spend awhile hyperfocusing on one of my og crushes Raiden!

You draw Raiden soo pretty 🤩

Oh my god thank you for this extra info!!! It's making me want to watch the whole thing again(or at least season 2) for a better look...they brought up a lot of really cool concepts towards the midway of s2 but had to wrap it all up so quickly...esp stuff with The Collector

it's a bad sign if I was explained and shown what a "grimwalker" is but still having no idea what /exactly/ that is in the context of the story. Absolutely gorgeous show, this is the exact kind of thing I needed as a kid.

A LOT of really vital stuff got brought up in the 2nd half of season 2 and then had to be tragically dropped or wrapped up quickly and for that I'll never forgive Disney

Finished the Owl House last night and Im devastated there's not 800 million more episodes about Eda the Owl Lady or just lore about the Boiling Isle in general.

2 pages left to ink 😵‍💫🤯

If you have a moment, remember that my surgery is on the 5th of December. Any contributions you make are in defense of wokeness and more specifically Woke 2 (doing surgery on my skull and ancillary but important parts of my gender transition journey)

A LITTLE OVER A WEEK LEFT!!!

Once I'm done w CABARIS vol 2 I want to get back into illustrations and painting, but I'd also love to make fake graphic novel "pitch packs" for books I've read recently.

If you had the chance to turn a book you've read into a comic, which one would it be?
