Rainbow Warrior pg.9

  (continued from pg.8)

...so this was the last installment for the Fight magazine. I had no idea what I wanted to do with this story at this point, and felt like I should quit wh...

Rainbow Warrior pg.8

  (continued from pg.7)

... I've been informed that I had this sleep issue while with Jackie, as well. So that fits more with my current theory of it, rather than the one I was ex...

Thanks, me Droogies!

I sent you all messages thanking you for this, but I wanted to expound on it in a post. 

This has been a peculiar month for my Patreon page, as you all know, because I am deep into illustrating...

So I've been telling a lot of people that I'm too busy with Velvet Collar to take new tattoo clients unless they want to wait a month or so, but then someone in town for Ru Paul's Drag-con says they w...

Rainbow Warrior pg.7

 (continued from pg.6)

... So that's basically what I thought were the two factors in what I was experiencing: the almost psychic block against raising a fist, and the desire to learn ...

Madge

My patron and friend lost his best friend this week. This is for him. You can hear the purring in the pic I drew this from.
Also, I didn't realize until this drawing (the first was a mess... call i...

Velvet Collar page

Hey all, I am so busy with this book. Trying to get my speed up so that it evens out to minimum wage at least. That's a lot of work. I'd say I'm getting to between 10 -12 hours a page (at best). That ...

Rainbow Warrior pg.6

...The gay boxing club was a hoot. It was a fun way to get a different kind of workout, and the other boxers were really fun people... but the turn over was real...

Rainbow Warrior pg.5

 (continued from pg.4)

...I had grown up in a physically abusive home. My father had battered all of his wives. I think this led me to think of violence as something to never let out o...

QUEERS & COMICS!

Next Friday and Saturday I'll be at the  QUEERS & COMICS conference in San Francisco!  

I'v...

Daughter sketch

One of the characters in the comic I'm drawing has a daughter, I am happy with how she's coming along 😇

Rainbow Warrior pg.4

(continued from pg.3)

I chose the MMA fighter for two reasons. 1) fighters are fun to draw, and 2) I had been in a boxing club at one point and that figured into my personal theory of why I...

Rainbow Warrior pg.3

So a little about this story: spoilers! (it's half-baked).

The Fight had approached me about doing a strip for them. My only experience with such was a period a few years earlier when I had been doi...

Rainbow Warrior pg.2

I've reformatted these to be square and more visible on a screen rather than 4 panels horizontal like it was in the magazine. in the case of this part, it ended up taking the odd/even panel color sche...

full page "hero shot" from Velvet Collar

Hey I mentioned that I won't be posting the whole of the book, only occasional drawings and pages, but this here's one of them. It's late in the first issue when all of the protagonists meet up. It wa...

Rainbow Warrior pg.1

Hey all, my sincerest apologies for the lack of content recently. I had hoped to lighten my tattooing load while working on this commissioned comic to keep up a schedule here, but no luck thus far....

shop signage

Hey Droogs!

I'm busy busy busy. Been working hard to get the layouts for that comic book job drawn, and at the same time finishing up our new shop signage (pictured above). This was a split draw by ...

Commissioned Work

So this thing is happening. 

I'm getting paid to do an adult comicbook. The writer has been persistently after me to do something for him, and he's been very respectfu...

***UPDATES***

Almost done with the linework for the poster version of the center spread from DAMAGED. 

Then it's coloring, and off to the printer for the book... the print will probably be available from my ...

Sidewalk Sale pg.2

Page one is here. 

Just a simple meet-cute story. 

I built up the two to be minor celeb...

Sidewalk Sale pg.1

Page two is here. 

Hey Droogies!

It's the first of two pages of a little extra story to go in the print job o...

...strange party...

Hey all, still fluffing "Damaged" for print. I've done all of the fixes I want to except for one major one: the center spread. I'm spending a bit of time on that because I want to offer it as...

Patron only BONUS

Hey Droogies, it's another model sheet, this time for Dr. Max Bonito. Of course he spends half of his screen time naked so I did him nude first. Next is a dress-up version of him! 

***!!!BONUS post!!!***

Hey it's a model sheet for Grant, Feral's human alter ego! 

Humble confession time: I struggle with proportions. I've come to a place where I draw heads too big for their bodies... I didn't rea...

Burial of the Rats pg 37

One thing I am definitely considering now is removing myself from the story, making the first person narrator of me as unseen, but still break the fourth wall. I have to re-draw the 1st page anyhow, b...

Happy Pet Appreciation Day!

I had time to sneak this one in before the end of the day. 

And I sure appreciate my doggie. 

Did you hug your pet(s) today?

Burial of the Rats pg 36

I'd imagine I'll have to make sure I kept my tenses in line. I have a bad habit in narratives of bouncing between the present and past tense. I'll have to write all of the text out on one document to ...

Burial of the Rats pg 35

This is the old soldier/chiffonier based on David Z... again, hard to see with all the extra wrinkles and hair :/ 

How many had guessed that this is what the title refers to? I bet you had gues...

Miku from Fatal Frame 3! 

It rains a lot in that game and Miku complains about it. Now when we get a rare rainy season in Los Angeles, I hear her reed-thin voice, trembling out those words... 2017-02-18 00:59:28 +0000 UTC View Post
