Ogre Killer

This is a pencil sketch done in 2009. I honestly don't think I've ever shared it online until now, because I intended to paint over it... that may still happen but it's been about 15 years and I haven't gotten around to it!

Pantiless Assassins 2012

This is a recurring theme in my art, someone started a silly thread on conceptart.org with this prompt and I just kept going... These are all pencil drawings done in 2012, if any editing was done on them it was very minimal.

Undead Berserker Concept

This is a pencil drawing from 2013, was inspired by the Torchlight video game.

Zalei Ironhand

This is the original, first art, of a character from the Eternal Seven story. The concept has since been refined, but I love this old pencil drawing made sometime in 2006. Color is a simple overlay done in Photoshop.

Empath Demon

This is an ink drawing from 2015.
 

Ironically, this is also my most stolen artowrk. I've seen multiple instances on the internet where this artowrk was claimed/stolen by other artists, in some instances generating quite a lot of likes and comments. Once again proving I'm terrible at marketing myself and generating exposure for my art. It's ok though, at least I'm making the art. Maybe long after I'm dead my art will be worth something. For now it's just a release for me, and that is the ultimate point in art. Cheers!

Mr. Hat

This is a mixed media artwork created sometime in 2015. The character is inspired and named after a player from Subspace. Mr. Hat, if you're reading this, I miss u.

Carrier Demon v2011

This is a pencil drawing which was colored in Photoshop and probably my favorite take on the Carrier Demon concept. Made in 2011, one of my best art years.

A more gratuitous detailed shot of the back for my own enjoyment. No, I really don't care if you like it.

K'Chain Che'Malle

Pencil drawing of a creature from the Malazan Empire series by Steven Erikson. Made in 2011, it was one of my finest artworks that I am most proud of.

Pantiless Assassin 2018

There once was a thread on conceptart.org that ran for many years, of people adding these female character assassins that were not fans of under garments. This original sketch was made in 2008 and finshed about a decade later.

And there's the WIP, this was all done digitally, with Photoshop and Procreate.

The Morrigan

The Morrigan is a goddess from Irish Myth.

This drawing was "updated" in 2018 but was originally made for a 2008 Character of the Week (ChOW) challenge at the now defunct conceptart.org website.

Corrupted Elven Sorceress

Ballpoint pen ink sketch from 2014.

Silchas Ruin

A character from the Malazan Empire series by Steven Erikson. While he isn't my favorite, he certainly comes close.

This was all done in Photoshop, sometime in late 2014 and early 2015.

Lok Tar Ogar

It's an orc from Warcraft video game. This is one of my first fully digital concept sketches. It was made in 2008 with Photoshop and experimenting with some brushes. It was later touched up in 2019.

Scaled Hounds - Sketch from February 2019

One of my favorite things to do during meetings is to draw. Sometimes people think I'm not listening, but I can breathe and chew bubble gum at the same time too!

Karsa Orlong - The God is Not Willing

Karsa Orlong is one of the central characters in the Malazan Empire series by author Steven Erikson. This is my interpretation of him. I made this drawing in 2019 when news first broke of a follow-up series to the main Malazan books focused on Karsa.

This drawing started as a ballpoint pen ink sketch that I colorded and finished up digitally.

New Sketchies

I've been busy lately working on a major drawing.  Something much more complicated than anything I've ever done before.

Meanwhile, here's a new set of ink sketches, I'm considering painting over the middle one.

The character on the right was inspired from some random drawing I encountered online. Ballpoint pen ink, made in 2018.

Carrier Demon - Digital Painting from 2007

Carreir Demons are an original concept of mine developed sometime in the 90s. They are the torturers of whores and prostitutes in Hell. Their standing in the hierarchy of Hell is rather low, they are merely a step above regular devils and demon grunts. But Carrier Demons are physically very powerful, more intimidating in stature, and as common amongst all demons, immune to the fire element despite their ability to manifest in actual flesh.

Victims of Carriers get strapped to the demon's spike covered back in a prone pose, unable to move. The spikes of the demons have incredible regenerative and healing properties. Despite the pain inflicted upon the victim during the strapdown process, the spikes ensure the victim retains some fragment of sanity. Once the strapdown is complete, the Carriers go about their business in Hell, and their victims get raped, eviscerated, shredded, only to heal up to experience a new form of torture. This goes on until the victim's very soul gives up over time on the eternal scale, and is consumed by the demon...

This was a pencil sketch which was painted over in Photoshop, made around 2006, 2007 timeframe. This is also one of my first full digital illustrations. I have never been good in terms of backgrounds and no painting symbolizes this more than this one. This is also one of the first posts I made to this blog, I'm very proud of this creation of mine.
