Beautiful Water - prelude

From the field journal of Dr. Aurora:

Legends of lake monsters are as old as dirt, and ones of sea monsters as old as time. It makes sense to start this off with a lake monster. Ontario is named for its lakes after all, from the Iroquoian word meaning “great lake” or “beautiful/sparkling water”.

Ontario’s lakes were formed during the end of the last Ice Age when the receding glaciers carved into the earth and filled the scars with its melted ice. This ...

Christmas-themed D&D bosses

A month or so ago, I was commissioned to illustrate bosses for a Christmas-themed D&D homebrew book and it's been lost of fun

She Who Knows Silence In The Earth

A while ago I had an idea to write a short SCP tale that I've humorously given the working title "SCP: Into the Santa-verse". Sadly, it looks like it won't be ready for Christmas (unless an actual Christmas miracle happens), so I might shelf it for now.

Now what I do have a more fleshed out idea for is this one, which I've given the working title "Return to Nature". It's had more time to stew in my mind and I have no deadline to finish it, so I'll likely finish this o...

Out of the Inkwell - part one

Betty's origin story!
An art student at Miskatonic University uncovers notes from a former medical student about some sort of re-animation formula he was working on. He concocted a special ink using the formula in the hopes of creating literal moving pictures - cartoons that could self-animate. However, on the night of his first successful experiment, things go awry...

Uzushio

Had this funny idea while hanging out with my friends this weekend that prompted me to create some characters.

Better Watch Out - sketches

This holiday season we'll be returning to the North Pole with the tale Better Watch Out. It's gonna be a big story and kinda serve as a season finale. The script I have for it is quite lengthy and may result in being divided into separate chapters. Hell, it may even continue past the holiday season. 

Stakes will be high.
Shit will get real.
Seriously, I don't think any of you guys are ready for what's coming.
