I have a big article out today about being diagnosed as autistic while I was writing my latest book, & how tabletop games help me navigate the world as an autistic person. I hope it's interesting to some people.

Someone once defined “charm” in art as successful ends achieved by seemingly inadequate means.

Here's Alex Toth depicting a rogue pilot's last hurrah as he gives up trying to land his burning biplane, and instead roars into the air, loops, & smashes into the ground.
5 panel b&w comic sequence from Bravo for Adventure. Brain-breakingly great page by Alex Toth. I’ve made lots of the mentees at Helioscope look at this book, and raved about it so hard I probably turned them off his work.

I don't know if posting here is worth it but have some old #xfiles studies anyway
a digital study of an x files screencap. Mulder and Scully are standing outside, buildings and bystanders loosely rendered in the background. Mulder's face is in shadow as he looks into the distance, while Scully looks up at him incredulously. She's holding an open book and the warm lighting plays across her face. a digital study of an x files episode screencap. it's a close up on Scully's face, she's wearing glasses. Light from a computer screenreflects off of Scully's glasses and her hair is backlit by a much warmer light. a digital study of a screenshot from the pilot episode of the x files. mulder and scully are in a dark motel room. We look over Mulder's shoulder at Scully, who is reclining to the side and looking at him with a serious expression. She has the side of her face resting on her fist and light is coming through a shuttered window to her face. a painting of Mulder and Scully's hands. Scully's hand is reaching for Mulder's. they're both wearing black coats that take up most of the space.

"Onyx"

The black dragon Onyx guarding her treasure hoard in the ruins of Xak Tsaroth. Painted in acrylics for the D&D 2024 Dungeon Master's Guide!
A black dragon perched atop a treasure hoard in a damp cave. In the background we see waterfalls pouring down onto the treasure piles, moss covers the stone ruins that hint at long gone civilization. The dragon has a pale face that makes it look skeletal, while her body is covered in black spiky plates, and her back ridged with tall spines. She has an almost serpentine look with a slender body and an enormously long tail curling back around to her front.
