I still have to do the text edits, take one last editorial pass, and prep the digital and print files, but... the interior art (pencils, inks, colors, and vintage effects) for Undersea Hero is done.

Got my Live Drawing Stream tonight at 8 PM EST on YouTube, Twitch, Facebook and my website. I'll be working on some new art & raffling off this piece from last week. Just put a comment on one of the platforms during the stream to enter. The more comments, the more chances to win it.

John is such an incredible artist. I was so fortunate to see him take on my character, Hellena. I enjoy looking at this piece every day in my studio. Thank you again John.
A cover I did a jillion years ago for a buddy’s comic. You on here @ianchasenichols.bsky.social ?

Terror Con is coming up. I did the poster art for it (pencils, inks, colors, and hand lettering), and I quite enjoy this one. I could draw those silly monsters all day.

I'm setting up at PowerCon this weekend, with my friends @seanforneyart.bsky.social and Bryan Borgman, and figured I'd work up a new He-man/Skeletor piece for it.
I tried to make it feel like some of the classic MotU art.

I get asked a lot how do I improve my art? The words are simple: study anatomy, perspective, composition, design. It’s the thousands of hours & drawings no one sees that’s hard. More sketchbooks to the recycling. Thousands of successes & failures. Took out the good, thank you & goodbye to the rest.

Thank you to everyone that came to see me and visit at San Diego Comic Con. I saw so many people that I hadn’t seen since before Covid, and it was just so wonderful. I’m very lucky to have so many friends from all across the country.
