    The Progenitor Virus

    It was 1998 when I bought my first Playstation. I believe this was the first console that I had purchased with my own money, earned through a night receptionist position at a collection agency that my brother and cousin worked for. I was going to say that it was one of the hardest $100…

  • Dragon Breath

    Dragon Breath

    Here is a great red dragon terrorizing a kingdom of some sort. I had a really hard time with the actual fire itself. I’m usually one to paint glowy amorphus backgrounds that may imply some type of fire is going on, but I think this is the first time I’ve actually tried to define…

  • Goblin Savage

    Goblin Savage

    So, this is like not really orcy to me, but it also didn’t feel gobliny either. I’m going with goblin savage. The cool thing about this one is that I recorded it! I use a program called Flashback Express. It’s dirt simple to use, which is why I like it. I don’t need to…

    Ball Jr High Art Shirt

    While I had, pretty much, always been into drawing, I don’t think I really was able to appreciate “art” until I got into Jr High. Ball Jr High in Anaheim, CA. In 7th grade, I had Mr. Jones. This poor man was literally driven to a state of stress that I had not seen…

  • October is here!

    October is here!

    So October is finally here and that means I’m going to try and really pump out some horror pieces. I love it so much, but I really never take advantage of the month that everyone really gets into the season and starts to consume horror content. I’d say the previous post featuring The Witch…

  • The Witch

    The Witch

    So I finally got around to watching “The Witch” and I kicked myself right in the teeth for waiting so long. It turned out to be one of my favorite horror films of all time. Easily top ten. It’s a rare thing for a movie to trigger such an emotional response from me. After…

  • The Gunwitch

    The Gunwitch

    I’ve always thought that Dan Bereton’s Gunwitch was one of the coolest looking characters I’d ever seen. I’m not sure I did him justice, but I certainly tried. This menacing golem, zombie, sharpshooter bodyguard… is just so damn cool.

    Melt Disneyworld – Ink is cool

    Way back when I pretended I was cool, living in NYC, I got really into to pigment pens. I used to buy them at Columbia, an art supply store on W.33rd, right across from the Empire State Building near where I worked. I remember it well and had fun Google Street Viewing just before…

  • Sewers Under Sandwall

    Sewers Under Sandwall

    I’ve been doing a fair amount of work for Absolute Tabletop who make supplements for tabletop RPGs. I think they make a quality product for an great price which is why I’m happy to work with them. The latest adventure module I was lucky enough to work on was Sewers Under Sandwall “Inspired by…
