“Displacement”

A finished key art piece of fantasy and cyberpunk aesthetics colliding. A lone knight stands in the middle of a grimy, ultra-capitalist cityscape—far from where he belongs.

How did he get here? And who (or what) is he fighting? ⚔️💀🔧

Progress snapshot – there’s a lot of work still to do, but it’s at least starting to look like a proper scene. What do you think? #digitalart #conceptart #freelanceartist #fantasyart #cyberpunkart #ttrpg #gameart #ttrpgart

I painted this in 2021 with the aim of doing something interesting with perspective; I’m still sort of happy with it. How do you think this scene will play out? #digitalart #conceptart #fantasyart #characterdesign #ttrpg #ttrpgart #gameart #freelanceartist

Color blocking is done; this piece will rapidly start coming to life as rendering gets underway. Who do you think is winning this duel? #digitalart #fantasyart #cyberpunkart #characterdesign #freelanceartist #gameart #ttrpgart

Working on a new portfolio piece – worlds colliding in this one! I’m currently finishing up lineart, color blocking is next. What color palette do you think would fit this scene?

Planning to open commissions soon. What do you think this character will be? #freelanceartist #characterdesign #fantasyart #cyberpunkart

Neon lights, back-alley deals, and high-tech augmentations. Had a lot of fun designing this piece—one of my more mood-intensive works to date. If you lived in a cyberpunk world, what augmentation would you get first?

Lego Spider-Man Advent Calendar – Day #1

Day 1 of learning to draw a Mark Bagley style Spider-Man. This one is still a mess, produced through a combination of reference drawing, tracking and freehanding; in time, I’m hoping to develop a sense of how to do it organically.

With all the recent Kinda Funny #MTG content, maybe it’s time I get back to my KF/MTG project from a couple years ago

After being a relatively one-note side character mostly for personal conflict or dramatic irony, and more absent in the 80s, Aunt May enjoyed some proper character development in the 90s. These were mostly bits written by J.M. DeMatteis, who is obviously the GOAT with introspective character pieces.

I don’t read much manga, but I recently got this big boi and thought I’d give it a try – only one chapter in so far, but it seems interesting enough. I’ll certainly finish it, and then we’ll see whether I want to move on to the next Omnibus. #aot #manga #comics

Started reading Spider-Man 2099 for the first time recently, and I’m surprised by how solid and across the board different from the mainline Spidey it is. Worldbuilding in particular is interesting, and I love the concept of the cults forming around superheroes. #comics #comicbooks #spider-man

Finished the short story collection "Burning Chrome", by William Gibson and collaborators. Interesting read, stories varying from good to great. #books #reading #scifi #sciencefiction
