Tic Toc Tober ‘25 is done & in the books, so that means onto the pages I should have inked by now. I’ll be inking my pages primarily on my Patreon which means I’ll be taking a bit of a break on my free socials. I only have one tier on Patreon & it’s only $1 CAD/mo.

It’s the last day of Tic Toc Tober & today’s prompt is Troll. Having started my collecting & taking a direction in my art in the 90’s, I was at a perfect age for the Image comics boom.

It’s Tic Toc Tober day 30, Werewolf and being a teenager in the 90’s, I was reading a lot of Image comics & Wetworks was definitely on my pull list back in the day.
I live-streamed this one on my Patreon for free if you’d like to check it out while my pal Peter M. kept me company.

Tic Toc Tober day 29, Shatter. I attempted to draw Mr.Glass & tried some weird effects which are recorded live on my free Patreon which was also weird, I couldn’t use my webcam or laptop but I was able to livestream from my phone.
Check the link below for all the awkwardness.

It’s Tic Toc Tober day 28, Variant. I opted to do a version of Iggy that might have been in Deadpool 2.
I got better results from my white pencil for her tattoo than I initially thought.

It’s Toc Toc Tober ‘25 day 27, Jack The King Kirby!!!
There aren’t enough days in a year or a lifetime to properly showcase the legacy of Kirby in visual arts but I opted to draw Ben Grimm aka the ever loving’ blue eyed Thing.

Tic Toc Tober day 24, Swimsuit. There were a few obvious ways I could have gone, but I thought having Tom himself in a 1930’s swimsuit would have been fun.

Tic Toc Tober continues on, day 23 is Elvis & although I had the option to draw Costello or Stoijo, I went for the king instead reminding myself that I am sorely lacking in realism.

Today’s Tic Toc Tober prompt is “Putting on the Ritz” & my first thought was my first an old Alvin & the Chipmunks episode which was my first exposure to the song or Taco’s rendition but I ended up going for Young Frankenstein.

It’s Tic Toc Tober ‘25 day 21, Beat. I went simple with this one, beating some eggs in a whisk. I was given a more fun idea that I may end up doing as a full piece when ‘Tober is finished.

Tic Toc Tober continues and today’s prompt is our favourite TTT character. While there are many to choose from, I have a big soft spot for a version of Tom that only had 4 pages back in 1992, meet INDIGLO TOM!

Tic Toc Tober day 19, Ring. I attempted to recreate the poster from the movie, The Ring with Black mix media paper and my white POSCA pen.
The live stream was done on Patreon along with almost all my other Tober drawings and other content that I don’t share here.

Tic Toc Tober day 18, Toque, a very common hat in Canada for the winter months, or for some people, all year round. Tom here likes to keep warm this time of year.

It’s Tic Toc Tober day 17 and much means it’s time for Igor, which I attempted to do the style from the 2008 movie. Again, not so hot with the CGI. I drew this live on @patreon a few days ago as I’m working my day shifts over the weekend which doesn’t really give me a lot of time to livestream.

This is the prompt I’ve been waiting for, Tic Toc Tober day 16, MULLETS!!!
Here is the creep who started this epic comeback in the 21st century (yes, there is a special place in Hell for me…)
These have mostly been done live on my Patreon account, links below.

Tic Toc Tober day 15, Star Wars Characters that didn’t get any screen time. I’m not a huge Star Wars guy & by screen time I assume the movies, so I opted for Star Wars Rebels, Kanan Jarrus.

Happy Thanksgiving all!!! It’s also Tic Toc Tober & today’s prompt is Sketchy Pete, a recent addition to the TTT multiverse & set to play an important role in our next book due in 2026 (so not too far off).

It’s Tic Toc Tober day 12, which is wrestling. I’m not huge into wrestling & not so great with photo accurate likenesses I for some reason thought I’d attempt Andre The Giant.

Today’s Toc Toc Tober was totally going to be a cheat day, but the rest of the crew really brought it so I attempted to capture a specific scene from Avengers EMH episode 20, The Casket of Ancient Winters.

Tic Toc Tober day 10, Black Cat. This was loosely based on cosplayer @bellechere.bsky.social and I say loosely because I’m not great with likenesses.

It’s Tic Toc Tober day 9 which is Wookie & despite being a geek, I’m not huge into Star Wars, I don’t dislike it but I’m not big into it. Anyways, this one will stay in the sketch book until I get better at drawing a Wookie.

Tic Toc Tober day 8, War of the Worlds. Alien tripods looking to destroy the world is always fun to draw.
