May Poll Winners

This one ended up being a bit of a nail biter. We came this close to having a four way tie* for the Fan poll, but Madoka Magica finally pulled out ahead, and I'm honestly pretty psyched. I liked all of the options (at least, the one's I'm familiar with) and was excited to draw any one of them, but Madoka Magica is one of my all time favorite animes, and is actually the show I credit for turning me from 'a guy who'd seen some anime before' into a bonafide 'anime fan'. It's also like m...

Star Wars: The Secret Stash Edition

So, I didn't really create anything new specifically for May The Fourth this year, but when I went scrambling for something I could post, I remembered I had one Star Wars project lined up for the Secret Stash, so it looks like you guys at least are getting something.

Okay, so what this is is actually kind of an offshoot of my fake game cases. Whenever I start a new project like that, you just know it's not going to be long until I make a Stash version. It happened with sketch cards, it ...

May Sketch Poll: Ani-MAY!

Quick side note that I'm sure will only be interesting to me, but check it out - I created new graphics for the polls! This design was immediately easier to work with, and I think it looks pretty sharp to boot. Hope y'all dig it, too.

Anyway, it's time for yet another monthly poll! Declare to the wold that you have the power of God and anime on your side by voting for your pick of the following...

May Stash Poll: Ani-MAY!

It's the first of the month, and you know what that means. It's time to trip and accidentally grab your favorite anime waifu by the boob by voting in the Ani-MAY stash poll. Voting ends Sunday night, so be sure to vote soon!

April Poll Winner: The Bride

The third and final of the April Poll Winners, it's the Bride from Kill Bill!

This is the second time I've done a serious drawing of the Bride, the first being my now retired Sweet Revenge print, and it was really nice to revisit her. I recall even at the time not being very satisfied with how she looked in the original print, so I think it says a lot about how much I've improved...

Tifa Lockhart Speed Draw

Check out the speed video HERE!

I hope I'm not overloading everyone with the Stash Speed Draw videos. Even though it was just one subject, the Elvira one being done in four parts makes it feel like I've done a ton of em  lately. On the other hand, after such a big project, I wanted to do another, simpler one as a bit of a palate cleanser. Throw on top of that the fact that a lot o...

Reminder: Ani-MAY Suggestions

Just a reminder to everyone that I'm still talking suggestions for the anime themed sketch polls! Be sure to get those ideas in soon; voting starts on Friday!

April Poll Winner: Sypha Belnades

So I tried watching the Castlevania anime on Netflix when it first came out, and it just wasn't my cup of tea at the time. (Though, I'd still kind of like to revisit it, as I did think it picked up a bit towards the end and I've heard season 2 and 3 are really good.) Nevertheless, this one ended up being a LOT of fun to draw. I really dig this character's design, and I've been playing a lot of "Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night" lately, so I think I was in a good headspace for it. And I was a...

April Secret Stash Winner: Ramona Flowers (+Bonus!)

Okay, so Ramona Flowers is kind of a top tier fictional babe for me, and seeing Mary Elizabeth Winstead in the Birds of Prey movie a couple weeks back kinda stirred up a desire to draw her again, so it's not much of a surprise that this one gets an alternate version, a bonus, and here pretty soon, an entire second drawing. She just ticks off so many of the "things I'm into" boxes, I couldn't help myself! 

About that bonus, though - it's actually an older drawing I did back in 2017....

April Poll Winner: Black Canary

The first of three poll winners this month!

Black Canary is so cool. Green Arrow was one of the books that helped get me back into comics back in high school, so Black Canary's connection to GA made her a character that stuck out to me, and naturally it was only a matter of time before I became a fan of her in her own right. 

I had fun playing around with her design a bit here. I tried to incorporate a few elements from a few different versions. Mainly the comics, of course, ...

April Secret Stash Winner: Elvira: Mistress of the Dark!

I actually started to draw this way back in October. I happen to know that one of my awesome subscribers here is a big Elvira fan, and Halloween seemed like a great excuse to draw her. For whatever reason, it just kinda got away from my then, and I never got much beyond an extremely rough layout; but when she came up in this month's 'draw everything' poll, I knew it was time to finish what I started. 

I also did a speed drawing for this one. Or, to be more accurate, I did FOUR ...

May Sketch Suggestions

The theme for May is... ANI-MAY!

Hahaha! Get it? Ani-May! Like, anime and, you know, May, which is, uh, the month that it is. I mean, it's funny because.... well, not funny "Ha Ha", but more like..... 

Okay, so I've been sitting on that dumb pun for a while now, so it was going to happen anyway, but it kinda got a bit of extra significance when Animarathon got canceled this year due to Covid-19. Animarathon is a relatively small, but still pretty fun anime sh...

May Sketch Suggestions (Secret Stash)

"Gotta get in tune with Sailor Moon
Cause that cartoon has got the boom anime babes
That make me think the wrong thing"

The theme for May is Ani-May! Anime is a bit infamous for it's sexy girls and over-the-top fan service, and a few anime girls have graced previous polls, but this time they're the main attraction! So be sure to run down to the comments (with a piece of toast in your mouth because you're late for the first day of school, naturally) and li...

Jay & Silent Bob

On this, the twentieth day of April, it seemed like a good time to do something with Jay and Silent Bob. This is actually going to end up being two sketch cards that people will be able to buy as a set and get kind of a side by side thing going on. 

I also did a speed sketch video for this that you can watch here! This was actually kind of an interesting one since I was doing two characters at once. It actually ma...

It's Asuka Langley from Neon Genesis Evangelion! This was done entirely on my new Twitch channel. so be sure to check it out and subscribe if you'd like to watch me create more art. Right now I stream every Tuesday from 6-8. I'd like to add another day, but I'm trying to plan long term and fit it around my work schedule for whenever that starts back up. We'll see.

Man oh man, my posting schedule is all out of whack. Not that I was ever the most consistent poster, but I tried to stick to certain days and certain times, and most importantly, give you lovely Patreons advance notice on things. Alas, with the world turned upside down, some things are inevitably going ...

Hello Nurse Card + Video

I made this late last week, but I'm just now getting around to posting it. I had to go out to Walmart to pick up a prescription and boy let me tell you, after social isolating myself for about three weeks at that point, the outside world was pretty overwhelming. When I got back home, I decided to sooth my pandemic panic by drawing the prototypical sexy medical professional: Hello Nurse from Animaniacs. Man oh man, can you believe they let us watch this as kids? lol

Two New Physical Reward Tiers Are LIVE

I've talked about it a little bit already, but in case you missed it before, I'm officially adding two new tiers to my Patreon featuring physical rewards. They both act as extensions of the two current tiers, but in addition to the current rewards, you'll also receive a physical trading card each month as well as exclusive access to timelapse videos of the cards being made.

The price for these tiers is $5 and $6 for Fan and Stash variants respectively. I you can't or don't want to upgra...

April Sketch Poll: Fan Choice!

It's funny, I didn't intend for there to be any theme this month, and yet a "kick ass blondes" theme sort of happened on it's own. We've got Black Canary from DC Comics, Sypha Belnades from Castlevania, and the Bride from Kill Bill all duking it out to be number one... or are they?

Time Is Running Out!

I wanted to send out a quick reminder that tomorrow is the last day to submit your ideas for the April Sketch Polls. For whatever reason, I haven't gotten a lot in this time- just two characters for the $1 tier and only one for the $3 tier. The theme is Fan Choice, so you can suggest any character you want. Think of it as a potential free commission! Just be sure to get your ideas in soon or you'll miss your chance!
