Blacky Shepherd

I can’t imagine a version of that movie that would be watchable. I barely made it through its normal run time…

So in what looks to be a super duper rookie move, I shouted about how I was looking for projects and didn't bother to link to a portfolio... so, here it's:

Thanks homie!

…Aaaaaand its official: I need to start drawing comics again.
If any established writers out there want a damned fine horror/sci-fi/fantasy artist to do a comic with, you know where to find me.

A page of comics showing a man and a woman sitting across from each other, then in the final panels we see they are each alone in a room seeing each other via computer, trying to go on a date during the covid lockdown

A piece i recently ran across that was done for an unreleased anthology during the covid lockdown. Beautifully conceived by Bryan Edward Hill, one of my favorite writers.

Cant wait to see this in print, such a great story and i was honored to be asked to do the illustrations!!

Jim Silke was an extraordinarily accomplished man, having accomplished a great many things before taking up comics in his 60s, for kicks… and redefined what it meant to be a pinup/comic book artist.
Most importantly he was incredibly kind and amazingly talented.
Rest in peace, Jim, and thanks.

In the coming 4 years (and beyond) we progressively minded folk have to shift focus and remember that truest of all sayings:
ALL politics are LOCAL.
We have to start clawing back state legislatures, mayorships, governorships, city councils, education boards.

The 90s/early 2000s are long dead my friend.
Remember being able to get on the internet and actually discover something interesting and new? It was like the Wild West for a minute.
Those were the days…

I bought like $250 worth of 4k Blu-rays.

Bloo-skee. Naturally.

Hey all! Gonna join the Clever Kaiju team tonight live on YouTube at 6pm PT as a bunch of rad artists (and oddly enough, me) are going to be ‘Concepting Evil’ where we work out concept art for evil characters and discuss the process and critique each others work!
Look up ‘Clever Kaiju’ on YouTube!

Overheard just now, while waiting for food at a Taco Bell:
“I mean, just because he’s deaf doesn’t mean he can’t hear nothin’!”

It’s taken everything within me to not ask this rocket scientist to explain that sentence.

Dude. RIP to my favorite Iron Maiden singer, the inimitable Paul Di’anno - they really broke the mold with that guy.

Wow! I’ve like quadrupled in followers in the last few days! I’ve been super sick (mom came to visit, gave me the sick… so, you know, THANKS MOM) but once I’m back on my feet I guess I should post some art!
Thanks everyone for the follow!

I would do an inordinate amount of crime to see a good transfer/translation of this.

Of course! I think the world of both of you!
