I’ve started a reblog-blog, so I don’t bog down my main site with stuff that isn’t mine.
Yeah man, I don’t know. I had this idea to draw a comic about some tough guys in prison talking about anime dating sim video games, because those are weird and uncomfortable to me, and I’m also really fascinated by people attaching romantic attachments to inanimate objects and fictional characters.
But I’m not sure I like the way this turned out for a lot of reasons, but I’d like to put it out, be done with it and move on to something else. I just hope it makes sense, and the lettering is legible at all.

Art Nudes Tuesday a day late as usual. Taylor returns as model (finally!) and I experiment with brown paper.
Inspired by Anita Sarkeesian’s Video Game Tropes vs Women, I wanted to pitch a Zelda game where Zelda herself was the hero, rescuing a Prince Link.
Clockwork Empire is set 2,000 years after Twilight Princess, and is not a reboot, but simply another iteration in the Zelda franchise. It just so happens that in this case, Zelda is the protagonist. I’m a very big Zelda fan, and worked hard to draw from key elements in the continuity and mythos.
This concept work is meant to show that Zelda as a game protagonist can be both compelling and true to the franchise, while bringing new and dynamic game elements that go farther than being a simple gender swap.
Hope you like it!
This seems like it might be of interest to many people who read this blog. :)
It’s ArtNudesTuesday, folks! Changing the tag from ArtBoobsTuesday in case of future male models.
The lovely pink-haired Tasha returns as model, and while I’m a bit out of practice from the SXSW break, I manage to tame the unruly medium of soft pastels. Hope you enjoy!
This was a rejected death animation for the Cyclops enemy in Arnthak. Turns out, Kale wants him to get out of the alive, so he teleports himself away instead.
