Full version of my gift for Aurem. (She loved it, btw!) Based on her Halloween costume idea of a "candy corn witch".

A cute blonde au ra (race of dragon people from FFXIV) holds on to her witch hat on a windy autumn day. She is wearing a dress with ribbons and is surrounded with magical moons and stars. A small cat sits beside her watching her.

Here's some chibi art for Raye of their FFXIV character. It was fun drawing chibi again!

Star Trek The Next Generation scene. The bridge of the Enterprise is shown from above looking down. Data sits at his console looking back at the rest of the crew, who are all passed out in various situations; on the floor, slumped over a console, or half falling off their chairs. Worf, notorious Klingon warrior, dangles over the tactical station. No caption.

Apparently I've been so depressed lately, not even Instagram ads want to sell me their treatment.

Star Trek V, The Final Frontier scene. Collegial work associate Kirk and Spock are in an elevator, or a "turbolift" if you want to be fancy about it. Both are wearing outdoors stuff, Kirk in a leather coat over flannel all rugged like, and Spock is in a more normal but clearly future space blue jacket. Picture 1 has both standing facing the door for the elevator ride and Kirk is speaking. Closed caption reads, "I could really use a shower." Picture 2 shows Spock now looking at Kirk with a judging / appraising look on his face. The tension is palpable. Picture 3 shows Spock, still looking at Kirk, closed caption reads, "Yes." Alt in pic one! Gadzooks! Alt in pic one, zoinks!

Art gift for my bestie Aurem. This is based on her 2025 Halloween outfit. I liked the idea so much that I drew her FFXIV Au Ra in the outfit.

Full version out soon!

Dude carrying way too many things, labeled "writer/artist" with the stack of stuff labeled "side WIP, WIP from 3 months ago, passion project, imaginary project, WIP I keep open in the background so I don't feel guilty, the WIP I'm actually "working on""

A narrow barren tree stands in the fog next to an evergreen tree. Other trees are varying degrees of visible behind them.

WIP something different, experimenting with grayscale -> color with gradient maps and minimal lineart.

Star Trek The Next Generation scene. We're in Ten Forward, a future space bar (social club not keyboard) and we're peering over Worf's shoulder from a sit, to Data, in uniform, standing a handful of steps away and staring back at Worf. He has a spaced out, under a spell like focus in his eyes, it's not our typical Data we've come to know and love. Closed caption reads, "What kind of cake are you eating?"

I can't stay angry at my ex-girlfriends who dumped me. It's attractive to have standards.

A haiku by me that nobody will read:

It seems like I’ve moved
But it’s everything else
That has passed me by
