Silksong is the most difficult game I’ve finished in years, and it’s amazing. Not for everyone but apparently I’m the target audience.

The cat jumped on my head in the middle of the night and scratched my face. Looking like John Marston from Red Dead Redemption right now.

Skull of the mighty T-Rex! I did my research for this piece so it’s as scientifically accurate as possible. There’s certainly no shortage of Tyrannosaur fossils, during the Cretaceous North America was absolutely rotten with these things.

Prisoner, mixed media on canvas.
It started out as a painting on canvas that I decided I didn't like. I titled it 'Prisoner' because the original painting is still under there, never to see the light of day again. This is available in my Etsy shop along with a bunch of my other weirdness.

Guess illustrating my way through Dark Souls III has come to an abrupt end. I learned the hard way that the PC version doesn’t support cloud saves, so my level 65 character is gone to the either. Sigh. Back to Elden Ring…

Time lapse of me sculpting the Fingerslayer Blade from Elden Ring. It’s a metal armature covered with aluminum foil to make the basic shape of the sword. At this stage I’m putting on the first layer of epoxy clay to make a hard shell to build on.

Fingerslayer Blade from Elden Ring, epoxy clay and mixed media. It’s one of the most important items in the game, and ironically it’s not useable as a weapon by the player.

Small thumbnail page. It’s a great drawing exercise that will sometimes yield viable ideas.

When I visited my Dad last week we took a hike up to Wind Rock. Spectacular view, these photos barely do it justice. It’s located on Potts Mountain in Giles County VA, just a few miles from Mountain Lake Hotel of Dirty Dancing fame.

Went camping last night for the first time in years. Nice to be somewhere I couldn’t hear the traffic.

I’m currently visiting my Dad, and since MVP cut down all his pine trees we have a great view 🤷♂️

I finished my sketch of the Elder Ghru from Dark Souls III, and I have to say these guys are more fun to draw than fight. The only time you encounter them you’re knee-deep in a poison swamp.

More Dark Souls 3! This is the Boreal Outrider Knight, slowly descending into beast hood in the service of the Pontiff Sulyvahn.

Been playing Dark Souls 3 lately, so here’s a little drawing exercise I did today. Everything about this game is creepy. Love it.
