orange knight

OK this has been overdue for A WHILE. This is my take on the orange knight from castle crashers. Ways back I did a red knight design in preparation to do a little CC comic and even further back a green knight (that I couldn't find a pic of D:) This design for the third knight has been stuck in my head since then :X

uh oh :)

Getting very close now! There's a few more pages to complete but i'm also gonna be putting together a mini art book of sketches and stuff to go along with this first lil comic. This feature is all about the world (and world building) and I think it would be really neat to see it all side-by-side. So keep an eye out for some o' that!

Love ya!

~infinite dungeon dimension

A few more pages to go! As with most of my comics the intro segment is short & sweet. I wanted to do the first IDD as a comic/zine hybrid thing, filling out the pages with concept art and full page drawings. Its my weird idea for a comic book amuse bouche.

The digital version will be releasing early on patreon sometime this month :]

Simple digital process

Hello hello! I've been playing with adding digital shading to my pencil sketches and I wanted to show how i've been doing it! 

I don't have a tablet or anything like that at the moment so i've just been using a mouse. In photoshop CS6 (and probably all the other ones but idk for sure) you can shift-click while using a brush tool to draw a straight line from the last pixel you placed. I use this to trace a border within my linework, and then fill the shape and create a layer just fo...

C-C-C-COMBO POST

Hey hello! Since its the end of the month and there's a bunch of stuff I want to share i'm starting the chain with a quick 2-hit combo.

First hit is Dungeon Denizen~ Bladebound

~ While a great variety of beliefs are held regarding the nature of the dungeon one truth is accepted with near unanimity: there is a force that governs this place and it holds power over all that passes through it. Some think it an invisible force, others say it is a deity or supernatural being. It may be ...

Bloodborne: moon presence

Okay so i'm pretty sure i've said this before but I am a huge fan of the Souls games. Bloodborne is my favorite for many reasons that are difficult to reduce down to a single post. I have done bits of BB fanart here and there but i'm finally getting to a point where I feel i'm good enough to really flex on some of the designs. I don't know how many of these i'll do or how often but I also want to talk a bit about why this material inspires me so much. 

In these posts i'm not gonna ...

Infinite Dungeon Dimension~

Going forward everything for this comic will be under the tag "IDD," so you can go to my main page and search for it that way if you wanna see all the stuffs. 

I'm super duper happy with these pages so far and I hope you like them too! I'd love to know what you think!

Infinite Dungeon Dimension (no text yet, but I figured you might like to see it)

These won't be up on google drive until they're finalized. You'll be able to see them page by page as I do finish them! I want to put more time into this comic (and all my other ones) but i've had a lot on my plate. Which isn't a bad thing, but a different thing. I try to work on it whenever I can and every little bit of support helps me out with that! I just want you to know I appreciate it :]

dungeon denizen ~ bubble maw

A silent floating hunter that hides nearly transparent in the shadows.. what could be worse? The bubble maw is a perfect example of how many creatures biologically adapt to life in the dungeon. They wait until the perfect moment to float above an unsuspecting victim and immobilize it with a thick oil-like substance.

This odorless tar is instantly absorbed into whatever it comes in contact with. Impossible to observe or study for more than a mere moment, it is unknown how the bubble maw'...
