Might be finished with page 1 of ZOMBIE TOOLS: EDGE OF SURVIVAL. a short comic that I'm writing illustrating for zombietools.net. Lettering will be placed after the whole comic is finished. #Zombies #ComicBook #Apocalypse #DigitalArt #NoAI
A six panel gritty comic book page opening in-medias-res, depicting a small crew of Zombie Apocalypse Survivors finding them selves trapped by a horde lured in by raiders. Their attempts to fight back fail as ammo runs out and cheap deco-blade swords break. All seems hopeless until the last panel when a mysterious blade swipes in from off-panel ending one of the Zombies up-close. 7-more pages are underway in this 8-page intro-comic sponsored by Zombie Tools at zombietools.net

TAMING NEW FRIENDS depicts Ghoowhally (the blue dragonborn) and his Party, with their attention centered around the newest member of their part, a chop-shop beast with no memory of their origins named Zontack. Ghoowhally seems to have tamed him with mushroom jerky, but the rest of the group seems a bit unsure. PULLING THORNS depicts, young Djae'Dron crying as he embraces his friend Raru, a large quadruped beast who is covered in nasty thick thorns. She had just moments early busted through a thick barrier of nasty, spikey thorny bushes to rescue him from Oriks that would have had him as a prize. Atop Raru's side, perches Elunadda, a small sugar-glider-like creature who is set to work pulling thorns from her thick hide. DARKNESS ABOVE depicts Ghoowhally leading his party through a mysterious, thick, dark forest. His posture suggests that he can feel he's being watched. In the canopy above we can see that they're totally surrounded and outnumbered by raven-like harpy creatures, whose territory they're encroaching upon. NURIDIAN HOST depicts the fae-child La'Achselyn of the fox-tribe Keetsunekesh, who has become the host of the Eternal goddess Nuridia. The powers of body, growth, and fecundity flow through her. She is now one with the forest and all things that thrive within.

Depicting young Djae'Dron embracing Raru, who was wounded rescuing him from Oriks, while Elunadda pulls her thorns. #DigitalArt #art

First time with the traditional birthday watermelon slice. I was trying sonhard not to damage the cutting board... I only used half force. Had I gone full force, I think I'd be shopping for a new picnic table right now.

A fantastical, otherworldly scene unfolds beneath a sky alive with color and motion. High above jagged twisting volcanic rock formations, a massive spire of dark, organic-looking stone twists upward, its surface riddled with deep hollows and textures like cooled magma. A narrow staircase spirals around the spire’s dizzying height, leading to the summit, where an immense statue of the Eternal Goddess Xolaria dominates the scene. She towers in gleaming, otherworldly armor, crowned with horns, her form both protective and terrifying, illuminated from behind by radiant light that spills outward like a divine aura. Before her stands a vast ceremonial basin, suggesting ritual purpose or cosmic offering. The night sky behind her is alive with a shimmering aurora that washes the heavens in greens, purples, and blues, like a celestial curtain in motion. Cutting across this aurora is the faint but unmistakable arc of a mysterious space ring, glowing as it stretches from horizon to horizon—an ancient and incomprehensible structure encircling the world. Closer to the viewer, a small flock of Rendaraian bats swoops through the sky. Their leathery wings are spread wide, and their long, prehensile tails curl and twist as they fly toward the foreground, lending a sense of eerie vitality to the surreal landscape. In the lower distance, smaller spires of volcanic rock rise through mist and shadow, framing the monumental climb up treacherous carved rock staircase that spirals around the spire to the chalice of the goddess. The overall impression is vast, reverent, and unsettling: a vision of divine presence, cosmic wonder, and alien grandeur within the Children of Gaia universe.
