something from april, 2022 (slightly revisited)

a painting of two siblings sitting in the middle of their room. it’s nighttime and they’ve built a pillow and chair fortress with a bedsheet as a roof. the room is dark, but there’s light and color inside their little space. they’re having fun.

BloodStarved Bailie @ LONDON

@bailierosenlund.bsky.social

Avengers Academy #29 inks--in which Blackheart continues to have a bad* time and is a real sad* boy about it. I cannot stress how excited I was when I got this script, and despite drawing this cathedral many many times, I loved every moment of it. #comics 🌹✨

inked drawing of St Patricks cathedral in New York. We are viewing it from a lower/ dutch angle so it feels grandiose. Its rose window is broken. on the street in front human blackheart stands looking towards it

inked drawing of human blackheart in a confessional. he is sitting, bent over with hands on his head in a very distressed pose

inked drawing of a long vertical view inside the cathedral. Large pillars stand tall as a statue of Micheal the Archangel smiting a creaturey rendition of lucifer. standing across from the statue is human Blackheart, hesitantly reaching a hand towards the Lucifer statue which is also reaching its hand out. At the top of the image are two floating panels featuring a close cut in of Blackheart and Luciferes eyes

inked drawing of Blackheart sitting in the broken Rose window of the cathedral. he is hugging his knees with one arm and he shift his gaze away, burying he face into his shoulder. Very similar vibe to Cabanel's Fallen Angel painting. he is being a real sad boy

@mgillman.bsky.social

Over on my patreon, I just posted a big batch of daily diary comics from my trip to Alaska for comics camp! Here's a freebie :) patreon.com/mgillman

A three panel black and white diary comic called "6/16/25 -- Middle school fable comics workshop". Panel 1: Mel stands at a whiteboard with a marker in hand, and a drawing of a fish on the board. They say: "Fables often start with a character who WANTS something! What could our fish want?" Panel 2: A classroom of children raise their hands and shout "To steal!!!" "To kill!!!" "Hair!!!" Panel 3: Back to Mel at the whiteboard, who says "Let's go with hair! How could our fish get hair?" The children shout in response "By killing!!" "By stealing!!"

Shortbox Comics Fair is HERE!!!

Once again, my comic is FREE!!!

I hope those of you who pick it up enjoy! I had a lot of fun writing about creativity (again).

The cover image to my new comic, The Things we Carve. The character is sitting on a pink tiled ground, looking off in the distance while surrounded by branches and swirling roots. Wearing a yellow tunic and dark magenta pants, their legs look like they’re being slowly carved out from a branch.

The first page of my comic, with two vertical panels showing off the broomsquire’s workshop and a close up of them carving away at a branch.
