WIZARDS

Today at lunch we somehow ended up talking about what Wizards smell like. I brought up what does the inside of Gandalf’s hat smell like, & decided that Rasputin probably smelled like piss! View Post

KNOWLEDGE

Before I got locked in on the style that would go on to define PORK & Dungeon Degenerates, I worked in lots of different styles & developed aesthetic languages around them, more in my 20s! ...

WAAAGH!

Reading the Lord of the Rings gave me a weird notion, I’m a Hobbit that relates to Orcs! I don’t know what to do with this, but it’s definitely true!

URGENT

I really like 70s MOR bands that I shouldn't, probably from listening to the radio a lot with an open mind & a joint. I found it very difficult to close my heart/mind to music that I would have...

COMICAL FUNNIES

When we were living in Eugene, before the kids were born & I had been working on getting it so that I could just draw all day, I drew a daily comic strip & then all the Sunday Funnies to go...

MINIATURES

Adam Cardone painted up a bunch of our DUNGEON DEGENERATES minis fantastically & positioned them on his awesome scenery, the background really adds to the effect! I love to see our minis painte...

VEGETARIAN?

Here’s some old art from 2002. I went vegetarian again, Katie had been threatening it & I’ve been thinking about it for years, but decided against it for the sake of simplifying family meal...

WAR?

I try not to be an alarmist but, we’re closer than we ever have been to nuclear war over a proxy war with Russia! I’m disappointed that people who would have been shitting themself a month ago ...

THE OLDEN DOMAIN

I'm coloring old art & listening to this album, it's one of my favorite Black Metal albums totally evoking a dark, Norse mythology. Enjoy.

HOORAY FOR THE BAD GUYS

This was the first ad for DUNGEON DEGENERATES in PORK 23! The image is called “Hooray For the Bad Guys!” With a lot of my work, there is this weird rooting in the way that the English, particul...

RETURN TO FANTASY

PORK 23 announced a Return to Fantasy with my partying Jabberwock cover. One of the ways my brain works is to put things in boxes & push those boxes around. In the case of PORK, I put Fantasy i...

MONSTER SIZE MONSTER

Here’s an old comic that I recolored for inclusion in my Halloween Book! (coming out right after Halloween, in time for next year!) Anyhow, a big part of my impetus as an artist has been to evoke...

COMING SOON

I made this graphic for our distributors since the game will go on sale for Q1. Not early enough for Christmas, but no rush for us, & plenty of room for things to go wrong!

ICONS

I drew the icons for DUNGEON DEGENERATES in a chunky style that would fit their use as icons. They were converted into a font.

HALLOWEEN TREAT

Here’s a piece I recolored but it didn’t end up in my a Halloween book! I like it a lot, it’s supposed to capture the childish wonder that Halloween inspires! Even though I look at the world ...

COMICS!!!

One of the things that probably helped in terms of having the stroke & losing the ability to draw like I used to is that I’ve viewed myself as hiring myself out to do my own illustration work...

I’VE BEEN THE CHANGE. NOW I WANNA SEE IT FROM OTHERS.

Some tattoo flash I did for PORK 29. One of the things that has gotten to me is having to beat the same drum over & over again. I’ve gotten used to beating my own drum all the time because it...

DEER WIZARD & FAMILIAR

I recolored these old drawings for use in the game Epic Spell Wars. I originally drew the Goblin/Troll/Deer Wizard for The Goblin or Binocular Rebellious more than 20 years ago. The familiar is The...

IT'S ALL SCREWY

One of the things that I appreciate the most about this frustrating moment is that it is confirming most of my observations that I made when I really started to look at things as true. That said, G...

CHAOS LADY

I really like John Blanche's work, especially his stuff from the 70s & early 80s. I feel like he really got the transition from Prog Rock to NWOBHM to Punk in a way that is rarely understood by...

SPACE ORK

I suppose I am really showing my hand with this one. Back in the late 80s. finding imaginative stuff was more difficult than it is now. Finding good stuff, that's probably the same proportion. Anyh...

So, I’m rereading the Lord of the Rings & it is bringing out my desire that I’ve always had (but I’ve repressed) for a well ordered society. I acknowledge that I’ve done well in the cha...
