10th Anniversary

forgive me for the repeated posting about this, but my latest full-time gig ends at the end of this month. we're all looking and i know how barren it is out there, but nevertheless i persist in job hunting.

if we become coworkers I will tell you about each individual Zoro figure i keep at my desk

I know there’s not much out there re: jobs, but I’ve been nonstop job hunting since December 2023 and I would REALLY like to stop!

So much is possible if we get more creative. We could be living so much better and easier.

Friends & fans of Kipo and the Age of Wonderbeasts, three incredible Kipo artists all lost their homes in the Eaton fire. Writer Ben Mekler, board artist Renee Faundo, & editor Nancy Jean Tucker. Please help them rebuild if you can. Links to their GoFundMe pages in my replies...

Digital pencil drawing of Shadow the Hedgehog parked on his motorcycle, looking back at us over his shoulder. The drawing is mostly black and white, aside from red highlights on shadow.

(No Spoilers) SHADOW FANS HOW ARE WE FEELING??? This movie was such a treat for my 13 year old self who used to scour the internet for just tiny crumbs of more of Shadow media. 🙈🙉⬛️✍️🪟⛓️‍💥💯0️⃣0️⃣0️⃣0️⃣🙂1️⃣❎1️⃣⬇️

Did these to practice drawing in an anime style! Does anyone know if you use hashtags on bluesky?

If you can’t beat’em…

Pretty Pretty Please I Don't Want to be a Magical Girl!

haha! Thanks Lauren!

For Outsiders: this is NOT a deal, it's not a contract. It's a tentative agreement that still needs to be ratified by a vote.

For Union Kin: PLEASE go to the GMM (light on info) and upcoming Town Halls (heavy on info) regarding this. Get informed, know what's on the line. Vote with knowledge.

I hope y'all have been enjoying Invincible Fight Girl! Here's one of the early layout I did for Episode 5 of the show.

Here, have a bat. I felt like drawing a bat today. “It’s funny how bats can look so much like hairless cats with wings.” — Omar Montoya Jr #characterdesign #batcharacter #batcharacterdesign #punkrockcharacter

Officially done with xitter—reposting a fun old drawing here. Some fan art of comfort characters from a while back that I made to make myself feel a lil better. Trying to do the same now by becoming more active here. #discoelysium #muppets

A line up of DnD characters from left to right: Ignacio, a brass dragonborn wizard (secretly a real dragon). He leans over mimicking his smaller father in a thinking pose, and wears similar clothes to him. Khoshekh, a kobold wizard, and adopted father of Ignacio, sits thoughtfully atop a large stack of books. He wears fine clothes and his physical appearance is based off of a leopard gecko. Against the books is Eep, his blue slime familiar with googly eyes. Ollie, a satyr boy bard sitting on a stump, and playing a pan flute. Loretta, a middle-aged pure blood Yuan-Ti (person with snake-like features) sorcerer, checking her nails and looking a little irritated. Saoirse, a tough brown Harengon (rabbit humanoid) ranger. She crosses her arms cooly with her green tattered cape blowing behind her. Daz, a heroic Drow blood-hunter. Her face and body are scared from countless battles and experiments done on her as a child. Her warm toned white hair is cut short, and her clothes are well tailored and moderately armored. She holds a short-sword in one hand. Leira, a giant merfolk paladin. She has a great yellow sail fin going from the top of her head to her back contrasting to her bright blue body. She wears something close to a two piece swimsuit made up of seaweed, and a single bright red sash is wrapped around her arm. She is lifting and tightly hugging her adoptive grandmother. Angela, a purple Triton fighter with red hair based off of an anglerfish. She is laughing as her granddaughter lifts her into a bear-hug, her wrinkles and smile lines are deep set. Despite her age, she looks considerably formidable as she wears a good deal of armor and has many sharp features including claws and teeth. She adorns a large black cloak and sunglasses to protect her from the sunlight that she is not adapted to.

Line up of all of my DnD characters.

Helena striking a pose, hand on her hip. She’s tall and dangerously thin. She wears a form fitting black coat with coat tails and a grey jumpsuit with a deep v-cut and two black belts. Her hair is silver and tied in a high ponytail with sharp flyaways. Her ears each have three rectangular gold piercings. She wears a black and gold mask covering only one eye, the exposed eye has a bright red iris that compliments her deep red lipstick.

Meet Lucy! My comic's main character.

She's a wild child living deep underground- oblivious to the surface world, but eager to learn (and change) its ways.

If you like fantasy stories that focus on outcasts coming into and changing the world- consider sticking around!
