A wood panel with an in progress painting on it. It’s a close up profile of someone with bright blue/teal eyes. Their hair is bright pink, flowing all around them. Around the painting there are poscas and other paint markers.

Yeah, a solid title image may cost you $1,000 min, but that is worth it. It shows that the art is important, it will bring the artist & their following into the campaign, and it shows what the art will actually look like when finished.

👇Some of the games I did artwork for that were funded via KS
Cover art for the game “Leviathan” based on Moby Dick. It’s a bird’s eye view showing a massive whale under the water while several ships float by Countdown action edition. Two 80’s style action heroes doing action hero things while some ominous eyes loom in the background. Mammoth. A game about terraforming. In the foreground there is a mammoth and beneath its feet, there is a glowing path forming showing where it came from and the hills and mountains it has traveled through

Naturally, I had to do this.
It says "SCHMANDREW" and "color goblin" in the style of Zohran Mamdani's branding

Decided to take a selfie in photobooth with the studio updates. I also learned that giving the peace sign will make balloons go... LMAO
A photo of me in my studio. I have blue hair, and I'm wearing a flannel. Behind me there are some framed prints, and a crocheted dragon head. A photo of me in my studio.

Also, there are CGI balloons in front of my face and all around me because I just learned that throwing up a peace sign in photobooth will trigger balloons LOL

Shout out to my assistant, Gayle, for saving me countless hours of opening 2-3 drawers in my flat file before finding the thing I’m looking for

I'm trying to get both of these as card sleeves (made by @dragonshield.bsky.social) ahead of @starcitygames.bsky.social's Vegas event! If I can get them in time, which one would you pick up?

Snake?
Skulls?

I got my new rug for the studio, marking the last big item for the update!
A custom build computer desk with an imac, and ipad on it. Speakers are on either end of it, and a sick custom rug is on the ground.

I’m so bad at taking actual photos at shows, but here are few.

Thanks so much SCG Baltimore!
Some chalk art of a goofy lil guy in Baltimore. Me taking a selfie in the hotel mirror near the elevator on the last day. I’ve got pink/blue/purple sweatpants, some pink basketball shoes, a mtg hoodie, and my rolling cart with my periwinkle duffle. Me and Jeff Laubenstein right before I left. He handed me his phone and said “I’m gonna go behind ya and you take a photo”

I did an alternate color-way of my piece for @wraithmarked.bsky.social

Sometimes it pays off to play around with your colors and various effects after you finish a piece.

If someone at SCG Baltimore has, and can bring me one of these, I’ll give you a token or a sticker ($5)

It’s finally finished! I got the desk extension/cable management installed. There are still a few other things I want to do, but this was the biggest part of the studio update.

It’ll extend the depth of my desk by 5.5” and it’ll also hide some cable management rails.

It’s an extension for my desk (pictured here) that will connect to the back of the desk and also hide some cable management rails.

Rest in peace, Drew Struzan. You were a huge inspiration to me over the years. Thanks for inspiring me to hone my portrait skills!

Spent all day working on my desk extension/cable management project. All that needs to be done now is all the sanding, staining, and finishing.
